20k Loan needed
Comments

Wow - just wow - this thread!!
OP, best (cheapest) options would be SBT credit cards as already mentioned - have a look in the credit card section for super-balance transfer cards that let you move the money to your current account (as cash) for a fee. Alternatively re-mortgage the B2L.
Both would probably be cheaper than loans on the proviso you pay them back exactly as you would a loan.
The rest of your post about wedding etc has taken this totally off-road :rotfl:.Thinking critically since 1996....0 -

Nope, still happily married after 15 years and enjoying the fact that we didn't waste shed loads of money just to impress people (and we easily could have afforded to pay for a wedding like yours from savings - we just didn't see the need to show off)0 -

A WEDDING BECOMES A WASTE OF MONEY WHEN YOU GET DIVORCED!!:rotfl:

I would've expected a fancier cake for a £40k wedding.0 -
I was reminded of this thread by an article in The Times today, which reports that there is an inverse correlation between money spent on a wedding and the length of the subsequent marriage.
I do hope that it's true, as my fianc!e and I plan to spend only the registry office fee on our wedding.0 -

You just sound like a c0ck.0 -
If ever a thread needed to be locked......

Even if the OP was bragging, so what? But there is no need for such horridness. so much envy! The cake is their choice !
