Are you a British woman over 40 and getting married? Is being part of a married couple important to you?

Renegade Pictures are producing a warm-hearted authored documentary looking at contemporary marriage in Britain.

The film will feature our presenter Cherry Healey meeting seven women of differing ages, situations and cultures who are planning their big day.

We are looking for charismatic brides-to-be who have met the man of their dreams abroad and are willing to talk to Cherry about their situation and why marriage is important to them.

Are you both currently living in the UK? Have you managed to escape visa complications? Perhaps you have children - what do they make of your situation?

If anyone is interested in appearing and would like to hear more about the film then please contact me confidentially at jessica.honeyball@renegadepictures.co.uk or on 0207 449 3279.

Thanks so much, I look forward to hearing from you!
