The hunt, which runs until Friday, August 23, will take participants around some of the district’s beautiful venues in search of hidden letters that spell out a special word.

Once couples have found the word, they can email it over to the council for a chance to be included in the grand finale. Twenty couples will then be selected at random to compete in a live on-stage quiz called the Couple’s Challenge at 3.30pm on September 7 at Dewsbury Town Hall.

The couples will go head to head to find out who knows each other best - the three couples with the highest scores will then compete in a surprise final battle to win the wedding of their dreams.

The competition aims to showcase the council’s venues, which include everything from museums to town halls, as places to visit and celebrate special occasions.

Coun Rob Walker, Cabinet Member for Culture, said: “Kirklees is incredibly lucky to be the home of some stunning town halls, and many people simply don’t realise that they cater for weddings, receptions and other celebrations.

“With their impressive sweeping staircases, wood panelling and beautiful ceremony and banqueting rooms, our town halls offer all the grandeur of a stately home but at a fraction of the price.

“This competition is a fun way to get couples to visit some of our venues, and see what we have on offer – I would encourage anyone planning to getting married to take part.”

The competition is open to any couple living in England or Wales, who are looking to hold their wedding before the end of 2020.
