I'm fairly new to all this, but I've created a
form, and this is what I've written to send it. I've used "
[email protected]" here instead of the real address
<?php

$myemail = "
[email protected]";

form inputs using check_input function */
$names = check_input($_POST['names'], "Please return to our Application
Form and enter your and your future spouse's names.");
$weddingtype = check_input($_POST['weddingtype'], "Please return to our Application
Form and fill in what kind of wedding you will be having.");
$religioussect = check_input($_POST['religioussect'], "Please return to our Application
Form and tell us about your religion and wedding traditions.");
$dateone = check_input($_POST['dateone'], "Please return to our Application
Form and give us the date for at least one event.");
$eventone = check_input($_POST['eventone'], "Please return to our Application
Form and list at least one event.");
$locationone = check_input($_POST['locationone'], "Please return to our Application
Form and give us the location for at least one event.");

$durationfour = $_POST['durationfour'];
$typefour = $_POST['typefour'];
$guests1 = check_input($_POST['guests1'], "Please return to our Application
Form and tell us how many guests will attend at least one event.");
$guests2 = $_POST['guests2'];
$guests3 = $_POST['guests3'];
$guests4 = $_POST['guests4'];
$concerns = $_POST['concerns'];
if(!isset($_POST['submit'])){
$subject = "Quote Application";
/*Message for the e-mail */
$message = "Hello!
