Lydia and Wickham never went to Gretna Green. In fact they did not try, and this is part of the scandal. In England, wedding banns had to be posted in the church where the bride was a communicant, a process that took weeks. This was not true in Scotland, and the result that couples who eloped to get married often went to Scotland to get an instant wedding. Gretna Green was just across the border, and had chapels where the priests would perform ceremonies at any time of day on a moment's notice, for a price. But the fact that Lydia and Wickham did not go to Gretna Green is a pretty sure indicator that Wickham did not want to marry Lydia at all.
