Navigation causing too many links
-
If I add pages to my site to cover major cities/towns/counties in the UK where I offer wedding bands and link them from the navigation using drop down menus/categories ( I believe this is the best option to allow users to find what they are looking for) I get a'too many links on page' flag. How can I best get around this problem?

To combat this Sam have you thought about having your top level of navigation broad match such as counties in UK and then when the user selects the county from the menu they are presented with a page that lisst the cities and towns, thus cutting down the number of links in the navigation on your homepage, then you can still create pages for your desired locations. I have done something similar in another niche..
I have found users don't mind having to take one extra step to narrow down their search - I think it would only be a real issue if you start requiring 3+ clicks to get to their desired information/page.
