2020 might not have been the best year for weddings so far, but that doesn't stop brides and grooms planning their big day. GiftsOnline4U, the personalised gifts online retailer, has delved into Office for National Statistics data to see the UK locations with the most weddings in one year. The research covered England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland separately to be able to reveal the most loved-up places for each of these locations. Read on to see what the data revealed.
