Secured loan could be a cost-effective way to pay for a wedding

Couples looking to get married abroad may find a secured loan can help make their special day perfect.

Shona Swain, the general manager for long haul for Thomson and First Choice, said tying the knot overseas is often better value for money than a ceremony in the UK.

She added there were other advantages a foreign wedding had over one in the UK.

"With two bad summers in a row, if couples do want to secure great weather for their special day getting married overseas proves a better bet," she stated.

Ms Swain noted that weddings in Italy had become more popular after media coverage of Wayne Rooney and Colleen McLoughlin's ceremony, but she concluded that choice of destination was "a very personal decision".

Homeowners may find they can get a competitive deal on a secured loan to cover the cost of getting hitched as their property will be used as surety so the risk to the lender is reduced.
