10/10/10: Your special day

Sunday is one of the busiest days of this year's wedding calendar with couples hoping the date 10/10/10 will bring them luck.

BBC News website readers have been explaining why Sunday's date is memorable to them:
Jane and Craig Down's 10th wedding anniversary

My husband Craig and I got married on 10/10/00 so it will be our 10th anniversary.

The date's been pretty lucky for us. We didn't even choose our wedding date, we just booked a wedding package holiday to Bali on our own, no guests, we didn't even invite our families!

We got married in Bali mainly because we got fed up trying to organise a wedding in this country and it seemed a lot easier just to go on holiday.

So we turned up at the Four Seasons Resort in Bali and were told we would be having our wedding on the Tuesday which turned out to be 10/10.

Actually 10 was quite a significant number as at that point we had been together as a couple for 10 years as we had met at university in October 1990.

So I suppose, after 10 happy years of marriage you could say that 10 has been a lucky number for us, however I have had 10 in my Lottery numbers ever since the Lottery started and I'm not a millionaire yet!

I suspect we'll have a bottle of champagne to toast our 10 years on.

Our first son was born at 11 minutes past 11 on the 11th day of the 11th month (in 2004).
