'Love in the air' - 100 weddings in a day at one venue

One hundred couples have been getting married, forming civil partnerships, and renewing their vows in one London venue.

The nearly-weds paid £100 to tie the knot at Old Marylebone Town Hall, which is celebrating its 100th birthday.

The BBC's Thomas Mackintosh and his partner Paige were one of the couples to take part.

The ceremonies started at 08:00 and have been continuing until well into Tuesday evening.
