You remind me of Nora Ephron who wrote "I feel bad about my neck" - short of having one of those "thread lifts" - where they hoik the skin up with something akin to barbed wire or fish hooks (tiny, but still), I think Tegan's advice is the best.

I don't know of magic potions - I've heard of firming creams but I don't think the effect lasts long.
You can get jewelery chokers - made of small pearls or flowers etc with dangly things below, more suitable than a scarf for a wedding.

We made this page on turkey necks (charming name!) based on other gransnetters' recommendations - maybe something there will help? Enjoy the wedding regardless - bet it's not half as bad you think!

Light reflecting foundation/powder would help, and would certainly help with the wedding photos.

8 weeks until DD's wedding and tried the whole outfit on today (to facilitate choosing between 2 expensive pairs of midnight blue suede shoes -no brainer, having both)
However, saw the neck shock which I usually keep under wraps, scarf, polo neck etc
So has anybody got a recommendation for a magic cream/potion/spell (?) which will "lift and firm" the offending area. A scarf even chiffon would not do. sad
