Best credit card for wedding payment

I'm getting married soon and have most of the money saved up, but am likely to need a credit card to pay some of it.

Therefore I want something with 0% interest and a limit of around £2k - any ideas which is the best one to go for at the current time?

    Nationwide do a "soft search" facility which gives you an estimated APR and credit limit.

    Here's the URL: http://www.nationwide.co.uk/products/credit-cards/purchase-offer/apply
    It's not your credit score that counts, it's your credit history. Any replies are my own personal opinion and not a representation of my employer.

    By 'best' what are you main concerns.

    Do you want the longest 0% period possible?
    Are you hoping to earn cashback?
    Best chance of being accepted?

    This link may be useful http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/credit-cards/best-0-credit-cards It also has a link to a tool to check you likely eligibility/chance of acceptance for each card.

    Longest 0% period and relatively good credit limit if possible. Thanks for the links, I'll check them out.
