Just wondering - what happens if you win the £25,000 wedding but you have already brought your dress for example?
I've already got my dress and we are looking to book our venue soon. Then it's a long saving process for everything else so we'd both be over the moon if we won and could stop trying to scrimp & save and get all the things we'd love to have but can't afford. We're not having a sit down meal as that's too expensive - so it'd be lovely to get one in!
Are you eligable to win if you don't need a dress? Would you end up with 2? Or would our chances be reduced as we don't need everything the prize offers?
I know the £25,000 wedding prize has lots of 'partners' who I assume provide their services and the cost of all of that adds up to £25,000. So is there a cash alternative if I was lucky enough to win?

If there is anything in the package that you win that you do not need then they usually put the prize up again as an extra for another bride on the site to get, you don't get a cash alternative for any of these prizes though. You either use the prizes you are given or give another bride the chance of winning what you don't need xxx
Got together 14.02.2008

CommentAuthorHappyBunny
if I won the wedding and already had certain aspects booked then I would defo try and donate it to another bride, ive just won as bookface comp for a cake :) and we never win anything xx
Does it affect your chances through? I mean, I would feel less likely to win if I had the dress and venue etc already. I'd gladly take the honeymoon though :-)

We originally met through a Greek Island
13th September 2014 on the same Island of Crete
We will become Husband & Wife xxx
CommentAuthorVintageChic
Youre not less likely to win just because you've already purchased certain aspects of your wedding. For a start there's no way of UKBride knowing for certain who has what and even if they did it would be far too complicated to sort out a "fair system"
When you join UKBride you're automatically entered once, then when you become a power user (whether it's by paying or gaining your points) you get entered another 100 times.
I must add though that to the best of my knowledge you only get those 100 extra entries once. EG you pay for power user you get your 100 entries, once you hit power user with your hearts you will not get another 100 on top.
Hope that clears up some questions

Congrats to the people who have won through book of face and other websites. If you can; can someone put the company names from book of face on my profile as I loved to 'like' them and look out for comps.

Ive actually been quite lucky. I won the ice sculpture competition on this lovely site, and i won a week's bootcamp on fb to loose weight for the wedding (worked as well woop woop) x
Happily Married! :) xxx
CommentAuthorKatya
the 100 entries ae for the annual win a wedding competition, all entries go in at the same time. The following year, it is automatic that your 100 entries go in again provided you are still a poweruser, if you are a standard user 1 entry is automatic.
Monthly Power User competitions are also automatic provided you are a power user of course. I won march's power user competition of a 5 tier wedding cake, 150 cupcakes & candy buffet. This is the one & only competition i have ever won.
Find out who you are & do it on purpose!

its pot luck, I was a member here for 2 years and never won any of the monthly prizes, they are drawn at random so its the luck of the draw :-) the monthly prizes are announced on FB first and they are put on the homepage so keep your eye out when you log in
