A bit about Valentines day and Scotland:
The history of St Valentine's Day dates back to Roman times when St Valentine was martyred for refusing to give up his Christian faith. It is believed that on the night before he died, he left a wee note to the jailer's daughter signed 'Your Valentine'. He died on 14th February which some see as the onset of spring, with new buds and spring flowers shooting through the winter ground; and this is a time traditionally associated with finding new love. But February 14th has become a time when couples demonstrate their love by exchanging cards and gifts. Some will become engaged to be married, while others will choose that day to marry. By the way if you're looking for a special way to travel to your wedding, have a look at Travelling in Style with a horse-drawn carriage.
It is believed that the remains of St Valentine's remains are in the church of Blessed St John Duns Scotus in Glasgow', a little-known fact that has led to Glasgow styling itself as the 'City of Love' in recent years.
Scotland's reputation for romantic venues is already well known throughout the world. Indeed the small village of Gretna Green is famous around the world as the place for romantic weddings. It is the first village over the Scottish border on the road from England to Glasgow. It is particularly renowned for being the place where young English couples in particular eloped; as English Law said they could not marry until they were 18 years old, whereas in Scotland marriage is allowed at 16.
