It has come to light that a few people are "confused" about the competition that we run each year to "win a wedding "so here is a few points that will hopefully clear up questions .
1, HOW DO I ENTER? By joining the forum group you are entered
2, WHO IS ELIGIBLE TO ENTER everyone who is a member upto their wedding date.
3, DO I NEED TO GET VOTES? No , everyone has a chance to win
4, CAN I GET MORE CHANCES? Yes, by becoming a power user you get 100 more entries into the draw.
5, WHEN IS THE DRAW FOR THE WEDDING ? It is done close to FEB 14th
6, HOW WILL I KNOW IF I HAVE WON? You will be contacted by one of the UKB team
7, CAN I WIN ANYTHING AFTER MY WEDDING DATE? If you are a power user then you will still be entered into the monthly draws
If you have any questions please pop them on here and we will answer them
Sorry I've just seen the title of the post was changed.. made my question look a bit stupid lol.

As a lot of members have already booked and paid for things for their weddings, would it count towards those things? Like say you'd already paid your photographer £100 deposit, would you get the money back for that and then the money for the final balance?

No Flossie, it comes with set prizes so the photographer will be a certain one, the dress will come from a certain shop, I believe the honeymoon is usually ku0ni, etc

so if you won this prize, but you've already got your photographer would you have to give up the price to someone else or just that part of it??? I thought it would be £25,000 to spend on anything wedding related but with your own choice of suppliers (not that I'm complaining it would be fantastic to win lol) xxx

it is to win items to the value of 25k .. hence why the prizes change year on year depending on who are putting items up.
if there is anything that you cant use for example the honeymoon as you already have one booked it there is another draw done so another bride would win that item.
I agree to win anything when it has cost nothing to enter is fantastic ( says she who never winds anything )
That's amazing.. that's my dream honeymoon destination! I'll take it...

Don't forget ladies last years winner and the winner before last both have diary's of their planning on here. Last year's winner is getting married sometime this year I believe so you can still join in her excitement of planning with no worries as well as read all about what exact prizes they both got included.

CommentAuthorMrsRobson2Be
Mrs D2B the prize doesn't usually include venue/food costs so you would still have to pay this :(
Although the other prizes make up for that, especially the honeymoon :)
CommentAuthorMrs D2B
Oh right, I had read that its a selection of different things to make up the £25k prize but I wasn't sure what it would cover. Does anyone know what it includes this year?

No idea, have you had a read of the previous winners diary's? That will give you a rough idea. Item's I remember were wedding dress, suits, bridesmaid dresses, rings, honeymoon, watches, M&S vouchers, stationary, spa day & cake.
