We are hurtling through January, Christmas now a distant memory for most of us, and 2021 hasn't got off to the best start.

So in a change of conversation from Covid, Brexit or Trump, let's get romantic.

In the run-up to Valentine's Day, instead of trawling through Amazon for inspiration, we're asking readers to share photos and memories of their wedding day.

It could be the big day of you, your parents or grandparents. Maybe it wasn't such a big day, but no less memorable.

The Leader: The 1970s wedding of Claire Pierce's parents.The 1970s wedding of Claire Pierce's parents.

My own parents' wedding (pictured above) was a simple affair, dad in his RAF uniform, mum in a cute, short white dress, and just a handful of close family and friends.

From the classic look of the 40s and 50s to the opulence and volume of the 80s, and everything in between, share your photos and stories.

Let's spread some love.
