    I'm getting married at Gretna Green, on 12th Dec 2012. Hahaha, they're monsters aren't they, everything up there has to be huge and hard, even the Mozies!! I love Scotland, my brother went to Dundee Uni 20 years ago and ended up marrying a scottish girl, they have been up in the highlands ever since. We have been all over Scotland, and never tire of it, it's so beautiful. I love the wild life too. So when my H2B asked me to marry him and asked me where I wanted to get married, Liverpool or Blackpool (I'm from Liverpool and my H2B is from Blackpool) I said I wanted to get married in Scotland and Gretna was agreed on. I just love the world famous old Blacksmiths Workshop it's so old and atmospheric. I can't wait.

    I got married at Gretna last August. We got married at The Blacksmiths Workshop in the Linton Suite and it was great. We had our reception at the Solway Lodge hotel further down the road. We couldn't ask for anything better - the service was fantastic and we had a perfect day.

    Ours was a very private wedding Kat. In fact, we didn't see any other weddings going on around the venue at all - before or after as we left - and that was a Saturday in August. In fact we never even saw another wedding car in Gretna, even after the ceremony when we went for a drive in our wedding car (vw camper).

    I think some people are under the impression that Gretna is like a 'conveyor belt' of weddings - but I'd definitely disagree.

    so, here it goes. we are now thinking about gretna green instead of a registry office. i have looked on the website and they offer packages just for the bride and groom and provide the witnessess which i think is perfect for me.(i suffer bad from anxiety and i think having my family around me is too much, i much prefer a private ceromany just me and my oh). anyway has anyone done this before. how did u get on. the package i have found is the romance package at the mill forge which is £445 obviously price dependant to 2017 it includes ceromany venue, 2 nights in the bridal suite intimate 4 course meal for bride and groom, bucks fizz on arrival, sparkling wine to celebrate, witnesses if required (something we need) and a wedding planner assistance.. now how did this work for you guys like on the day of the wedding not letting the groom see the dress & obviously help getting into the dress. transport is it something thats needed tp get to the ceromany, is the 2 nights stay near?. and obviously we want photography how did you choose your photographer.. and most importantly what did you do after in terms of the meal and everything else ? arghh im pulling my hair out

    Sorry for the long post im trying to find something thats perfect for us and gretna green sounds just that, but not making any decisions without hearing other peoples opinions and storys oof how theirs went. p.s i have never been to a wedding only seen it on the tv so i have no idea thankyou xxx
