The world's first 'Divorce fair' has taken place to meet rising demand as more and more people untie the knot.

Austrian capital, Vienna played host to the event which is known as 'New Beginnings' and gave people the chance to speak to lawyers and councillors about parting amicably.

Dating agencies were also on hand to give advice on finding love again as were hairstyling stalls for people seeking a new look as they return to the single's set.

And there were party organisers in attendance too - to help those that wished to celebrate their break up in style.
