Having just celebrated a family wedding, Julia Golding invites Katy Macfarlane to consider what would Jane Austen do about weddings? Starting with how people got married in Regency times, the law and the practices, they go on to seek out marriages in Jane's life and in her books - they aren't often on the page! Having got to grips with the Regency marriage world, they speculate about Jane's attitude to our modern weddings. Stay tuned for Jane Austen news in the run up to the Bath festival.
