Credit Card Help Needed

Options
I am getting married on June 9th this year (6 weeks away!!!) and still have about £800 to pay on the wedding plus our honeymoon/family holiday which is going to be £1700. At the minute, i am waiting for a cheque to come through which i have been advised will be in the next 2-4 weeks, however as the wedding is only a little while away and i really need to get everything paid for i was thinking about getting a credit card with 0% interest on it and then paying it off in full once i receive the cheque and it has cleared but i just need to know if this will be worth it?

I am really panicking that i havent got everything sorted yet but i also know very little about credit cards etc as i have never really dealt with these before. Me and my partner both work full time and have a mortgage in his name (i wasnt working when we got it originally!) so i dont think we would have any problems getting a card but i just need to understand a bit more about getting a credit card.

Any help/advice would be appreciated please :)

    It will depend on your credit record but no harm in trying.

    As long as you pay it off within the period and make payments all would be fine.
