    Check out the church of england website as full of information. I think you can do but will need to proof to the vicar that you want to be married in a christian church so may involve visits to church, classes, etc xxx

    Find your local parish church and look up their service times, pop along to one and see what you think. That way you can meet your vicar and visit the church too.

    Not sure if Scotland is different to England but being christened should not make a difference, its more divorce that makes it trickier.

    I agree with the others, go pop into your local church to have a chat. The Scottish seem to be more liberal with their wedding rules, I can't see your situation being a problem.

    I think you'll need to start attending the church you want to marry in. I think some you have to live in the parish as well. You'll have to ask at the church, each one has slightly different rules. x

    If your not getting married in your local church, they usually like you to have a 'link' to the church you're getting married in.

    I know it can be quite difficult to just pick a nice looking church and get married there, they'd believe you have to live/have recently lived in the area...
