kick in the teeth for Scott - when she is going through a break up it’s him she calls and goes to for her break down, it’s him she sends crying selfies tooo, but for her actual wedding where I’m sure he’d loved to share in her ‘joy’, he’s dust to her?Just putting this back out there but their witnesses were two random people off the street. I feel that says a lot as well.
Very true. Do we know if Scott knew?I can't remember, but if he didn't, that would be game over for me. The only reason to keep it from him in particular would be knowing he'd try to talk her out of it.Just putting this back out there but their witnesses were two random people off the street.

I would hope for his sake he was either told before the family were told, or when they were told (rather than being lugged in with friends being told after they got married). Imagine being one of the few constants of someone's life- living with them for years, being the person they share everything with, someone she called a soulmate (and has yet to call her husband that I think), someone who helped design the engagement ring and just being a really tolerable person; only to be excluded from such a huge milestone.kick in the teeth for Scott - when she is going through a break up it’s him she calls and goes to for her break down, it’s him she sends crying selfies tooo, but for her actual wedding where I’m sure he’d loved to share in her ‘joy’, he’s dust to her?
I could believe that, and I can completely understand the idea of being heartbroken and wanting to do the complete opposite of what you originally planned or had hoped for - it would be a bit weird to just change the groom in your plan, wouldn't itMaybe she had a whole idea/plan, but because it was (probably) based on marrying Oli, she felt like she couldn't do any of it because it was too painful of a reminder that he didn't want her anymore?
I don't understand why she couldn't plan another one though? I get it's stressful, but she has money to pay someone to plan one for her - or I dunno, take time in your engagement? I don't want a big fancy wedding but even I would want to put effort into a smaller do than what the Montagews did.
Missed opportunity for a thread titlesad sandwiches and no guests
I feel bad for those poor innocent witnesses, who most likely regret doing it. I wonder if they read the Hello! magJust putting this back out there but their witnesses were two random people off the street. I feel that says a lot as well.
Reminded me of what Carrie said about hen/stag do's being icky and archaic.If it were up to me, I’d never get married at all. I have no desire to tie myself down with archaic contracts, and I most certainly don’t want or need anyone invading my personal space until my dying day. I can’t imagine anything worse.
I think he can if that's considered the marital home, since they both reside there. Not in the UK either but doing some googling.Carrie you do realise that he now owns half your house* etc.
*I'm not in the UK so law might be different? But pretty sure if they divorce he can claim half?
Honestly, if you want to have your favourite people to your wedding and cannot wait 1-2 years or more for a venue, a backyard wedding is better than Gretna Green and cheese and onion sandwiches in the canteen.When did she post the wedding planning picture?
I reckon she wanted a big wedding but nowhere had availability for a while so went with the quick option.
I wonder if family started saying it’s a bit soon, isn’t it, dear, and then she probably couldn’t get the freebies she wanted so had a huff and eloped. Still, she managed to book Hello Magazine though…. I mean, seriously, why did they think general readers of Hello magazine would know who they are?!The wedding planner book, save the date message for Tom and speaking of choosing a date. Then all of a sudden they chose the date in November to go Gretna? It seems she was planning a wedding at least for a minute and then just abandoned it all and eloped?
What changed?
Carrie can we have an exact timeline of events in the next Q and A please
I genuinely didn’t even think Tom had the name recognition himself let alone his sister. Unless you liked McFly, I didn’t think anyone would know him so I’ve always doubted how famous even HE wasI wonder if family started saying it’s a bit soon, isn’t it, dear, and then she probably couldn’t get the freebies she wanted so had a huff and eloped.

I've just started reading a new book and read this passage:
Reminded me of what Carrie said about hen/stag do's being icky and archaic.
So the party is archaic but signing a martial contract with an almost stranger is fine? Carrie you do realise that he now owns half your house* etc.
*I'm not in the UK so law might be different? But pretty sure if they divorce he can claim half?
Hello magazine when they find out the location is Gretna green but they've already transferred the money:, she managed to book Hello Magazine though
I'd be embarrassed if I tried to sell those.
We don’t have legally enforceable pre nups in the UK. The most a court can do is take it into account, but it’s essentially meaningless. In Scotland at least, you can have a Minute of Agreement which my husband and I did ahead of our marriage owing to substantially differing financials coming into the marriage.Do you think they got a pre-nup? Although would they be pretty equal in their wealth? I don't know how much people in MT are paid but I would love to know if Carrie was able to pay for her house up front or if she has a mortgage! Or did Joel own a house that he essentially abandoned when he moved in with her?
