What can people tell me about Gretna Green weddings?
Gretna Green used to be the place were young people eloped to get married without their parents permission before they were eighteen, the ceremony took place over the local anvil by the local blacksmith. The ceremony now is carried out by the usual registry official in a place licenced for the ceremony, it’s become very tourist orientated and is not a cheapie any more. If your interested in the history of Gretna Green marriages up to the present date, visit this site, it first became popular in 1754!! http://www.gretnamarriages.co.uk/gretna_… There are plenty of organisers on the web, this is the cheapest one I found. http://www.gretnagreen.org/ .
