Secured loans
could help people eager to get married abroad, on the back of comments from Brides Magazine.

Thea Darricotte, executive retail editor at the publication, explains that there a number of factors which lead people to have their big day overseas.

"If you look at the weather right now, obviously there has been so much flooding, and it's a wet September, the wettest on record for a long time. I think it makes sense for people to go to a warmer climate," she adds.

Ms Darricotte notes that as well as warmer climes, foreign destinations can offer people superior products associated with wedding celebrations - such as food and wine.

Recently released data from the Office for National Statistics suggests that in 2006, there were 275,140 weddings in the UK, representing a fall of four per cent since 2004.

Secured loans could offer financial assistance to people eager to cover the cost of an overseas wedding.
