Christmas Weddings

I attended a Magdalen Walks presentation on this subject on Saturday and I thought a related article would be of interest.  So why did Victorians get married on Christmas Day?  When were Bank Holidays introduced?  What were Penny Weddings?  There was a resurgence in Christmas Weddings in the 1940s but what was the reason?  To find the answers to these questions and more related information please select the following link:
