While churches and registry offices remain the most popular places to get married, plenty of couples are looking for something a little different for their big day.
It used to be the case that there were legal limitations on where a marriage ceremony could take place but now, according to Citizens Advice, a wedding can take place at "a registration office or any other appropriate location (other than religious premises) that has been agreed by the couple and the registration authority."
That means you're only limited by your own imagination.
Here are seven of the most popular according to the experts at Hitched.co.uk.

7. The Blacksmith Shop
While historically popular with runaway couples and those looking to elope, Gretna Green has been hosting weddings of all kinds since 1754, and is one of the oldest and most romantic wedding venues in Scotland which is now responsible for 20% of all Scottish weddings. While half of all weddings that take place at Gretna Green are still for eloping couples, the other half simply choose the location for its incredible history and views.
