Does your big day need a big budget? Listeners share their questions and ideas with Ruth Alexander and guests.

Recent research by one wedding planning website has just revealed that the average cost of creating your dream day has topped 拢24,000.

We'd love to hear your tips for keeping wedding costs under control, how you negotiated the best price, as well as discuss what your options are if you feel like you've been stung.

Share your ideas and questions with Ruth Alexander and guests. Call 03700 100 444 from 1pm to 3.30pm on Wednesday or e-mail moneybox@bbc.co.uk

Gary Rycroft, Solicitor & Partner, Joseph A. Jones & Co.
Jemma Robinson, Lead Officer for Civil Law, Trading Standards Institute
