Oxford (pronounced /ˈɒksfɚd/ ( listen)) is a city, and the county town of Oxfordshire, in South East England. The city has a population of just under 165,000, with 151,000 living within the district boundary. The rivers Cherwell and Thames run through Oxford and meet south of the city centre. For a distance of some 10 miles (16 km) along the river, in the vicinity of Oxford, the Thames is known as The Isis.

The University of Oxford is the oldest university in the English-speaking world.

Buildings in Oxford demonstrate an example of every British architectural period since the arrival of the Saxons, including the iconic, mid-18th century Radcliffe Camera. Oxford is known as the "city of dreaming spires", a term coined by poet Matthew Arnold in reference to the harmonious architecture of Oxford's university buildings.

Can you please give us some ideas for a cost effective wedding in Oxford?
Q. My fiance and I are planning to get married in June 2010 in Oxford. We have recently graduated from university and don t have much money. We are planning to have a very small wedding with about 25 guests and don t mind having a religious ceremony. I have already bought my dress second hand for only 100. We would like to spend as little as possible. Can you please give us some ideas for a cost effective wedding in Oxford.

A. Make your own invites, boquet and decorations. Buy a second hand veil and tiara. Get bridesmaid dresses in the January sales from places like Monsoon or Coast (I saved loads doing this). Get shoes in the January sales. Negotiate the best deals on food whether going to a restaurant or having caterers. Make your own cupcake wedding cake. Don't forget to give notice (and include the priest/registrar costs in your budget which is around 440 for me!) Just do as much as you can yourself and drag family and friends into helping! Don't get carried away with the spend 20,000 on one day crowd whose weddings all look exactly the same anyway!! (and I graduated a 2 years ago so my student loan is more important to pay off then wedding debts!). Good… [cont.]

How much council tax does one pay in Oxford for a two bedroom house?
Q. Am a professional thinking of renting a house in South Oxford near the ice rink. Thanks!
Asked by Wonderkid - Fri Dec 14 19:11:52 2007 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Depends on the exact area, the banding of the house and whether you live alone or not. Rental agencies should specify the council tax charge upon enquiry ( if they are professional enough ) or you can simply phone the local authority for guidance. You are very wise to do your sums before you move in! A lot of people simply do the deal on the tenancy and then worry about local taxation afterwards ... leading them into financial trouble. Good luck ...
