0:00:02 > 0:00:04BOTH: Marrying Mum And Dad is back! CHEERING
0:00:07 > 0:00:10Get ready for more crazy parents handing over total control
0:00:10 > 0:00:11of their wedding day.
0:00:11 > 0:00:13THEY LAUGH
0:00:13 > 0:00:16The kids are in charge, they can do whatever they want!
0:00:16 > 0:00:18Lift off!
0:00:18 > 0:00:20That's your mum and dad's wedding cake!
0:00:23 > 0:00:25Mum and Dad have no idea what's about to happen.
0:00:25 > 0:00:29They have to wait until their wedding day to find out.
0:00:29 > 0:00:32- Oh, wow!- Fantastic!
0:00:32 > 0:00:33It's a massive risk.
0:00:33 > 0:00:35Smash it!
0:00:35 > 0:00:39'And we've got less than four weeks to organise everything.'
0:00:39 > 0:00:41It's disgusting.
0:00:41 > 0:00:42On today's show,
0:00:42 > 0:00:47Mum and Dad are following their daughter down the rabbit hole.
0:00:47 > 0:00:52- I now pronounce you, Ebony, officially 100% in charge!- Yeah!
0:00:52 > 0:00:56Get ready for a Wonderland wedding where anything is possible.
0:00:56 > 0:00:58Whoa!
0:00:58 > 0:01:00Will our secret wedding planner still be smiling
0:01:00 > 0:01:03at the end of the day?
0:01:03 > 0:01:06Or will Mum and Dad make a sharp exit?
0:01:06 > 0:01:08- We're about to find out! - Because we're...
0:01:08 > 0:01:10- ALL:- Marrying Mum And Dad!
0:01:10 > 0:01:11CHEERING
0:01:33 > 0:01:37This is Marrying Mum And Dad and this is what's going to happen.
0:01:37 > 0:01:38Over the next four weeks,
0:01:38 > 0:01:41an 11-year-old girl is going to organise a wedding.
0:01:41 > 0:01:43But not just any old wedding,
0:01:43 > 0:01:44her own parents' wedding.
0:01:44 > 0:01:47That's right, the kids are totally in control.
0:01:47 > 0:01:49Mum and Dad have no idea what's going to happen
0:01:49 > 0:01:50on their own wedding day.
0:01:52 > 0:01:54Today, we're in Manchester
0:01:54 > 0:01:58and our wedding planner with a difference is Ebony.
0:01:59 > 0:02:02She's arty, creative...
0:02:04 > 0:02:07She's a champion kick boxer
0:02:07 > 0:02:10and she's shaping up for the challenge ahead.
0:02:10 > 0:02:14I'm going to kick any boring ideas out of my mum and dad's wedding.
0:02:17 > 0:02:19Ebony lives with her mum Rachel,
0:02:19 > 0:02:22dad David and little sister Harmony.
0:02:22 > 0:02:26My dad is really childish,
0:02:26 > 0:02:30he's really funny and I love him so much.
0:02:30 > 0:02:33I love my mum because she's really kind and sweet to me
0:02:33 > 0:02:37and she always lets me watch DVDs in my bed.
0:02:37 > 0:02:38HARMONY BABBLES
0:02:38 > 0:02:40Harmony is only two
0:02:40 > 0:02:44so she's not quite ready to organise a wedding just yet.
0:02:44 > 0:02:47That means everything is down to Ebony.
0:02:47 > 0:02:51This wedding's going to be crazy, magical and special
0:02:51 > 0:02:55and the theme is Alice In Wonderland.
0:02:57 > 0:02:58Alice In Wonderland
0:02:58 > 0:03:01is one of the most famous children's books ever written.
0:03:01 > 0:03:05In it, Alice follows a talking rabbit down a rabbit hole into Wonderland.
0:03:05 > 0:03:07She goes to a Mad Hatter's tea party,
0:03:07 > 0:03:09meets a floating Cheshire Cat
0:03:09 > 0:03:13and plays croquet with the Queen of Hearts and her playing card army.
0:03:13 > 0:03:15You can't have an Alice In Wonderland wedding
0:03:15 > 0:03:18without a Mad Hatter's tea party, so we'll need loads of teacups.
0:03:18 > 0:03:22And the Queen of Hearts who loves her jam tarts, don't forget about those.
0:03:22 > 0:03:25And, of course, the White Rabbit who's always late, so we'll need...
0:03:25 > 0:03:26a rabbit.
0:03:26 > 0:03:29Ed, where did you get that from?
0:03:29 > 0:03:30It's so cute!
0:03:32 > 0:03:35Ebony has just four weeks before the big day
0:03:35 > 0:03:38to turn her Wonderland dream into a reality.
0:03:38 > 0:03:41I want to take over Mum and Dad's wedding
0:03:41 > 0:03:44because I know if they did it, it's going to be boring,
0:03:44 > 0:03:47they're going to be stressing out a lot.
0:03:47 > 0:03:52'Sorry to tell you this, Ebony, but Mum and Dad ARE stressing out.'
0:03:52 > 0:03:56I'm constantly trying to think what's Ebony got in mind,
0:03:56 > 0:03:57what she's got in store.
0:03:57 > 0:03:59Too late, Dad, it's happening!
0:03:59 > 0:04:02I think my mum and dad are very nervous.
0:04:02 > 0:04:06That makes me feel excited and very mischievous,
0:04:06 > 0:04:09because they don't know what I'm going to pull out of my hat!
0:04:13 > 0:04:17Ebony's search for a crazy location where she can cause mischief
0:04:17 > 0:04:19has brought her to Samlesbury Hall.
0:04:19 > 0:04:22It's 400 years old and full of Wonderland potential.
0:04:22 > 0:04:25So I was thinking who from Alice In Wonderland could you imagine
0:04:25 > 0:04:28- living in a house like this? - The Queen of Hearts.
0:04:28 > 0:04:30That's what I was thinking because of the symbols,
0:04:30 > 0:04:32- they look like they're from a deck of cards.- Yeah.
0:04:32 > 0:04:35- It's almost like we'd painted it ourselves.- Yeah.
0:04:35 > 0:04:38We didn't, obviously, it's a historic building.
0:04:38 > 0:04:42Ebony wants to fill her venue with Wonderland characters.
0:04:42 > 0:04:44Give us your best Cheshire Cat grin!
0:04:44 > 0:04:48And she's even planning to build her very own rabbit hole.
0:04:48 > 0:04:51Anything's possible here!
0:04:51 > 0:04:53Oh, yes, I like this.
0:04:53 > 0:04:57- What would this be perfect for? - The Mad Hatter's tea party.- Exactly.
0:04:57 > 0:04:58Look at this table!
0:04:58 > 0:05:00Actually, I was thinking about the Mad Hatter -
0:05:00 > 0:05:03are you sure you want your dad to be the Mad Hatter and not me?
0:05:03 > 0:05:05Cos I think I'd make a great Mad Hatter.
0:05:05 > 0:05:07- My dad's going to be the Mad Hatter.- Right.
0:05:07 > 0:05:10- So who am I going to be, then? - The Queen of Hearts.- A woman?- Yes.
0:05:10 > 0:05:12- You're going to dress me up as a woman?- Yes.- But you like the venue?
0:05:12 > 0:05:15- You're happy with it? - It needs to be a bit more magical.
0:05:15 > 0:05:17A bit more magical? Oh.
0:05:17 > 0:05:21Well, I guess Naomi can help you with that.
0:05:21 > 0:05:23And as if by Wonderland magic...
0:05:25 > 0:05:28Oh, there you are! Where have you been? Come on, you're late.
0:05:30 > 0:05:34'This centre for illusions is perfect for Ebony's Alice theme.'
0:05:34 > 0:05:37How did you get so tall?
0:05:37 > 0:05:39'It's playing tricks with our minds and our bodies.'
0:05:39 > 0:05:42What are you talking about, Naomi? You always look like that.
0:05:42 > 0:05:45Do you think we could use something like this at the wedding?
0:05:45 > 0:05:48- For the rabbit hole. - Oh, at the end of the tunnel.- Yeah.
0:05:48 > 0:05:50To make it look like it's just disappearing
0:05:50 > 0:05:52- and going on and on forever.- Yeah!
0:05:54 > 0:05:55'In one famous bit of the book,
0:05:55 > 0:05:58'Alice drinks a drink that makes her shrink in size.'
0:05:58 > 0:06:00You're tiny!
0:06:03 > 0:06:06You're getting bigger, I'm getting smaller.
0:06:06 > 0:06:10- We need to shrink my mum and dad. - Just like this?- Yep!
0:06:12 > 0:06:16- So can we say venue sorted? - Sorted!- Sorted.
0:06:18 > 0:06:20Ooh, you tricksters!
0:06:20 > 0:06:23If Ebony can pull that lot off, it really will be a wonder.
0:06:27 > 0:06:31Entertainment - croquet, because in Alice In Wonderland
0:06:31 > 0:06:33they have flamingos and a little hedgehog
0:06:33 > 0:06:37and they just play games with that. It's just really crazy.
0:06:37 > 0:06:40Croquet is more often played using a wooden mallet
0:06:40 > 0:06:44to hit wooden balls through narrow hoops. How hard can it be?
0:06:44 > 0:06:47The idea is to beat your opponents,
0:06:47 > 0:06:51getting through all the hoops, all right?
0:06:51 > 0:06:53'Ebony gets off to a good start.'
0:06:53 > 0:06:54You're going down!
0:06:54 > 0:06:58'Then it's time to show them how it's really done.'
0:06:58 > 0:07:02- Watch and learn, ladies. - Yes, yes, I'm ready. Hit!- Oh!- Right.
0:07:06 > 0:07:07- Very good.- There we go.
0:07:07 > 0:07:09You'll edit that so I don't look silly. Grr!
0:07:12 > 0:07:14These hoops are faulty, they're not big enough.
0:07:14 > 0:07:17Maybe you'd do better with a flamingo, Ed.
0:07:17 > 0:07:20- Hit it hard. Lovely. - There you go!
0:07:21 > 0:07:23Superb.
0:07:23 > 0:07:25So what do you think of croquet, Ebony?
0:07:25 > 0:07:28- It was fun but it needs to be more crazy.- More crazy?
0:07:30 > 0:07:32Whoa!
0:07:32 > 0:07:36- Is this crazy enough for you?! - A giant croquet ball! Awesome!
0:07:37 > 0:07:42Ebony wants a giant croquet ball, so she gets it - an inflatable Zorb.
0:07:42 > 0:07:45But is this really what Mum and Dad will want on their wedding day?
0:07:45 > 0:07:47SIREN BLARES
0:07:47 > 0:07:52My dad doesn't like fairgrounds and he doesn't like to be spun around.
0:07:52 > 0:07:55So it's not ideal for Dad, but Ebony's the boss.
0:07:55 > 0:08:00- OK, Ebony, are you ready to be thrown down a hill?- Yes.
0:08:00 > 0:08:01I'll see you at the bottom!
0:08:05 > 0:08:06Go!
0:08:06 > 0:08:08Oh, she's gone right over!
0:08:08 > 0:08:10- EBONY SCREAMS - Whoa!
0:08:10 > 0:08:13It's going really fast.
0:08:13 > 0:08:16Whoa! Aah!
0:08:16 > 0:08:17THEY LAUGH
0:08:17 > 0:08:21- What does it feel like when you were going upside down?- Er...
0:08:24 > 0:08:26So you definitely want to put Mum and Dad inside giant balls
0:08:26 > 0:08:28- and play croquet with them? - Yes.- Sounds good to me.
0:08:28 > 0:08:32- Entertainment, sorted! - No, wait, wait.
0:08:32 > 0:08:34You're getting in this too, Ed.
0:08:34 > 0:08:36It's not necessary, is it?
0:08:37 > 0:08:43I'm not happy about this but Ebony won't take "Aaah!" for an answer.
0:08:43 > 0:08:45Have fun throwing up.
0:08:45 > 0:08:47This wasn't really part of my plan.
0:08:47 > 0:08:49Go, Zorb!
0:08:49 > 0:08:52ED SCREAMS
0:08:57 > 0:09:01This is not something that most people do on their wedding day!
0:09:01 > 0:09:03I can see why you were screaming now.
0:09:03 > 0:09:05Mum and Dad are probably going to cry but I don't care,
0:09:05 > 0:09:08- it's going to be fun!- Right, the entertainment is definitely sorted.
0:09:08 > 0:09:11It's going to be Alice In Chunderland.
0:09:11 > 0:09:12You're right, Ed.
0:09:12 > 0:09:15Hope the wedding cake doesn't make a reappearance...
0:09:18 > 0:09:20And talking of cakes...
0:09:20 > 0:09:23When they cut the cake, it's going to have rainbow layers
0:09:23 > 0:09:25and I'm going to have crazy flavours.
0:09:25 > 0:09:27- Just the weirder, the better.- Yeah.- OK.
0:09:27 > 0:09:30Ebony wants to invent the crazy flavours for her bonkers
0:09:30 > 0:09:33wedding cake. Time to call in the bonkers wedding cake expert.
0:09:33 > 0:09:36- Shall we see what we can put together?- OK.
0:09:36 > 0:09:39Blueberries and beetroot.
0:09:39 > 0:09:41Oh, that's one of my favourite things
0:09:41 > 0:09:43with one of my least favourite things.
0:09:45 > 0:09:47(I think if Ed doesn't like beetroot,
0:09:47 > 0:09:50(I think we should put a bit more in.)
0:09:50 > 0:09:51I heard that!
0:09:53 > 0:09:57'Has Ebony created kitchen magic at her first attempt?'
0:09:57 > 0:09:59Smell it.
0:09:59 > 0:10:00Eugh!
0:10:00 > 0:10:02'Er, no is the answer.
0:10:02 > 0:10:04'What other disgusting - I mean,
0:10:04 > 0:10:07'imaginative combinations does she have in mind?'
0:10:07 > 0:10:08Coffee and cola.
0:10:08 > 0:10:11'Coffee? Hang on, where have I heard that before?'
0:10:11 > 0:10:13SIREN BLARES
0:10:13 > 0:10:15- Coffee, horrible.- Oh, yeah, coffee cake, no.- Yeah.
0:10:15 > 0:10:17Coffee cake's out of the question.
0:10:17 > 0:10:21Excellent(!) The one flavour Mum and Dad don't want, with added cola.
0:10:23 > 0:10:26I've never seen cake baking like this
0:10:26 > 0:10:28and our Wonderland wedding planner's got plenty more
0:10:28 > 0:10:30crazy combinations up her sleeve.
0:10:30 > 0:10:34Smoke, cola, coffee, carrot...
0:10:34 > 0:10:36'She's throwing everything into this cake mix!'
0:10:36 > 0:10:39(At least Ebony hasn't spotted the mushroom flavour.)
0:10:40 > 0:10:43Which of her cake flavour hopefuls will taste best,
0:10:43 > 0:10:46or least worst, when they come out of the oven?
0:10:46 > 0:10:49Ebony's brought along a guinea pig - me.
0:10:51 > 0:10:54Come on, Ed. It's just a pretty pink cake.
0:10:55 > 0:10:57Oh. It's weird.
0:10:57 > 0:11:00It tastes like strawberry and sprouts.
0:11:00 > 0:11:04- It's actually raspberry and radish. - Oh, right, OK.- Nearly.
0:11:04 > 0:11:06Two things that definitely don't go together.
0:11:06 > 0:11:09Stop moaning and keep eating!
0:11:09 > 0:11:13This next cake looks nice and it tastes...
0:11:13 > 0:11:14Eugh!
0:11:14 > 0:11:16'Disgusting. Well, there's a surprise(!)'
0:11:16 > 0:11:18Tastes like mud.
0:11:18 > 0:11:21- Beetroot and blueberry. - Eugh, you've stung me again!
0:11:21 > 0:11:23Take it away from me. Bleuch!
0:11:23 > 0:11:27Ebony, you do know wedding cake is meant to be enjoyed, don't you?
0:11:27 > 0:11:28Smells familiar.
0:11:30 > 0:11:34Carrot and it's got, like, crunchy bits in.
0:11:34 > 0:11:35Toenails?
0:11:35 > 0:11:37THEY LAUGH
0:11:37 > 0:11:38Carrot and toenails?
0:11:38 > 0:11:41- Oh, I know what it is - kiwi fruit. - Yes!- Yes.- Yes!
0:11:42 > 0:11:45Oh, this works. This is nice.
0:11:45 > 0:11:50Kiwi and carrot - weird in our land, standard in Ebony land.
0:11:50 > 0:11:52I think that was a very useful experiment.
0:11:52 > 0:11:55One layer of this cake is going to taste very crazy indeed.
0:11:55 > 0:11:57- Cake sorted?- Yes.
0:11:57 > 0:11:59Cake sorted!
0:11:59 > 0:12:02That's brilliant, thanks(!)
0:12:02 > 0:12:04Or did that cake sort you, Ed?
0:12:09 > 0:12:12The wedding day is getting closer.
0:12:12 > 0:12:14# I'm so excited
0:12:14 > 0:12:16# And I just can't hide it! #
0:12:16 > 0:12:20Stay focused, Ebony, you've still got to design all the outfits.
0:12:20 > 0:12:24My mum is going to be Alice and I want Mum's dress to not be plain,
0:12:24 > 0:12:27I want it to be really bright and exciting.
0:12:27 > 0:12:31And true to form, Ebony has some unique ideas for Dad's hat.
0:12:31 > 0:12:34And is his hat going to be completely mad?
0:12:34 > 0:12:36Yes, it's going to have things coming out of it.
0:12:36 > 0:12:39A mad hat with loads of things flowing out of it?
0:12:39 > 0:12:41Yep, and the guests are going to be playing cards.
0:12:41 > 0:12:45- How are we going to make this happen? Do you know?- Nope!- No.
0:12:45 > 0:12:47Well, you've got to make it happen, Ebony.
0:12:47 > 0:12:50Maybe illustrator Emma can help.
0:12:50 > 0:12:53I want to make all my guests look like playing cards
0:12:53 > 0:12:55but with the faces of my mum and dad.
0:12:55 > 0:12:56- Oh, OK.- Tricky!
0:12:59 > 0:13:03Every suit in a deck has royal cards and Ebony wants to put Mum and Dad
0:13:03 > 0:13:07on the two most important - the king and queen.
0:13:07 > 0:13:10- So it's starting to come together a little bit now, isn't it?- Yes.
0:13:10 > 0:13:14Ebony gives the hand-drawn caricatures a seal of approval.
0:13:14 > 0:13:15That's amazing.
0:13:15 > 0:13:18'The next step is to scan the sketches into a computer
0:13:18 > 0:13:20'and trace around the lines.'
0:13:20 > 0:13:23You're quick at this, you've done this before.
0:13:23 > 0:13:27'The digitized drawings are then flipped, coloured in by Ebony...'
0:13:27 > 0:13:32- Oh!- No, she's got a yellow face. Quick, delete.- Undo.- Great, undo.
0:13:32 > 0:13:36'..and finally printed out really, really big.'
0:13:36 > 0:13:38- Ooh!- That is incredible.
0:13:41 > 0:13:44'Ebony calls in her mates to help make king and queen cards
0:13:44 > 0:13:46'for all four suits.
0:13:46 > 0:13:48'Red paint for hearts and diamonds...'
0:13:48 > 0:13:51- What a pretty heart!- Oh!
0:13:51 > 0:13:53'..and black paint for spades and clubs.'
0:13:56 > 0:13:59It's like playing Twister when you've got to lean over, isn't it?
0:13:59 > 0:14:02'It's a bit messy, but with a little help from her friends,
0:14:02 > 0:14:06'Ebony might just pull off her big idea.'
0:14:06 > 0:14:08THEY CHEER
0:14:08 > 0:14:11- Yes, yes, yes! What do we think? - That's cool.- You like them?
0:14:11 > 0:14:16- Yes.- Can we say that's outfits sorted?- Yes.- Yes. Sorted! Ace!
0:14:16 > 0:14:19- Oh, Naomi, that was a terrible playing card pun.- You're welcome.
0:14:23 > 0:14:25Every wedding needs transport
0:14:25 > 0:14:27and Ebony has more bonkers ideas here,
0:14:27 > 0:14:30this time with bonkers bikes.
0:14:32 > 0:14:35'There are loads of vintage bikes at Paul's cycle museum.'
0:14:35 > 0:14:38Wow! Just one or two bikes(!)
0:14:38 > 0:14:42'And many of them would fit straight into Wonderland. Time to choose.'
0:14:42 > 0:14:44Watch out, Ebony!
0:14:45 > 0:14:48'Some of these bikes are over 100 years old,
0:14:48 > 0:14:50'so even older than Ebony's dad.'
0:14:50 > 0:14:54- I'm thinking maybe not this one for the wedding.- Yep.
0:14:54 > 0:14:57'But then Ebony spots a bike that's really different.'
0:14:57 > 0:15:01- Two people.- That is cool.- Oh, it's got two saddles on it, has it?
0:15:01 > 0:15:03- Yeah.- This is wicked.
0:15:04 > 0:15:06It doesn't steer like an ordinary bike.
0:15:06 > 0:15:08Are you sure you trust me, Ebony?
0:15:08 > 0:15:11Right... I'm shaking it!
0:15:11 > 0:15:14Well, your mum's going to love this on the wedding day(!)
0:15:15 > 0:15:20- So who's going to be sitting in the steering seat?- My dad.
0:15:20 > 0:15:22- And your mum's going to have a nice relaxing ride.- Yeah.
0:15:22 > 0:15:27- Does she trust your dad?- I don't know.- She's going to need to.
0:15:27 > 0:15:28Hang on a minute, Ebony,
0:15:28 > 0:15:31you're putting a bride on the front of THAT thing?
0:15:31 > 0:15:33ALARM BLARES
0:15:33 > 0:15:36I think my nightmare wedding transport would be
0:15:36 > 0:15:38probably dependent on the elements
0:15:38 > 0:15:40and I had hair sort of stuck all over my face
0:15:40 > 0:15:43and wind everywhere, that would just drive me nuts.
0:15:43 > 0:15:46So Mum wants wedding transport that protects her from the wind
0:15:46 > 0:15:49and rain, absolutely not a tandem tricycle, then.
0:15:49 > 0:15:53- Are you sure you're set on THIS bike?- Yes.- Why?
0:15:53 > 0:15:55Because it's crazy and it's made for two.
0:15:55 > 0:15:58- Can we give transport a big tick, then?- Yes.- Ring the bell!
0:15:58 > 0:16:00BELL RINGS
0:16:00 > 0:16:05'Chasing a rabbit on a bike, every bride's dream. Sorted.'
0:16:06 > 0:16:09Over the past four weeks, Ebony has worked hard
0:16:09 > 0:16:12to make Mum and Dad's big day a true Wonderland.
0:16:12 > 0:16:15She's hand-painted giant playing cards.
0:16:15 > 0:16:19Invented incredible, maybe even inedible, cake flavours.
0:16:19 > 0:16:23And set up a white rabbit chase on bicycles.
0:16:23 > 0:16:26Six days till the wedding!
0:16:26 > 0:16:28- Yay!- Yay!
0:16:28 > 0:16:31She calls in to see the progress of Mum's Alice dress
0:16:31 > 0:16:33with designer James.
0:16:33 > 0:16:37That is incredible. Can we have more sparkles?
0:16:37 > 0:16:38Yeah, yeah, of course.
0:16:38 > 0:16:42And what about that one-of-a-kind mad hat for Dad?
0:16:42 > 0:16:46Ebony visits prop builder Jeff to check her plans are coming together.
0:16:46 > 0:16:49Where's the ring going to be?
0:16:49 > 0:16:51What could possibly go wrong?
0:16:51 > 0:16:53Er, everything?
0:16:57 > 0:17:01The morning of the wedding - Wonderland.
0:17:01 > 0:17:03At least it will be when Ebony's transformed it.
0:17:05 > 0:17:08Will Mum and Dad be brave enough to venture down the rabbit hole?
0:17:08 > 0:17:12Ebony's Wonderland is filling up with surprises and optical illusions,
0:17:12 > 0:17:16including a magical tree with a special guest appearance.
0:17:17 > 0:17:21Meanwhile, Mum and Dad arrive at the venue blindfolded
0:17:21 > 0:17:24and with absolutely no idea of what's in store.
0:17:24 > 0:17:28Very nervous because Ebony's very devious
0:17:28 > 0:17:31and I'm just dreading what's going to happen
0:17:31 > 0:17:35and what she's got in store for us and I'm quite claustrophobic, so...
0:17:37 > 0:17:38Claustrophobic?
0:17:38 > 0:17:41There's only one way into Ebony's wedding Wonderland
0:17:41 > 0:17:44and that's down a tiny magic rabbit hole.
0:17:44 > 0:17:45Off you go, Ebony.
0:17:47 > 0:17:50Out the other side, nothing is the same.
0:17:50 > 0:17:53Ebony transforms into her favourite Alice In Wonderland character
0:17:53 > 0:17:56Tweedledee and her Tweedledum is her best friend Lydia.
0:18:00 > 0:18:02- Morning!- Good morning.
0:18:02 > 0:18:05- How are you feeling?- Nervous.- Yes?
0:18:05 > 0:18:08- Yeah, a little bit.- Very nervous. - Did you sleep last night?
0:18:08 > 0:18:11- A little bit, a little bit. - Here you go.- Thank you.
0:18:11 > 0:18:14Now, put your blindfolds on, there's someone to help you into outfits.
0:18:14 > 0:18:18- Yep.- OK.- We'll see you in a bit. - OK, you will.- Thank you.
0:18:18 > 0:18:20Thank you very much.
0:18:20 > 0:18:24She puts the finishing touches to her Mad Hatter's tea party
0:18:24 > 0:18:26and then, after weeks of secret preparations,
0:18:26 > 0:18:28it's the moment of truth.
0:18:30 > 0:18:32You're in safe hands... OK, all the way round.
0:18:32 > 0:18:34Led in by Ed dressed as the Queen of Hearts,
0:18:34 > 0:18:37Mum and Dad are about to find out the theme of their wedding.
0:18:37 > 0:18:39'Fingers crossed Dad's colour's green...
0:18:39 > 0:18:42'and purple and spots and stripes.'
0:18:42 > 0:18:43Final touch.
0:18:43 > 0:18:46Will Ebony get a wonderful Wonderland reaction?
0:18:46 > 0:18:48Mum and Dad, are you ready to see what you look like
0:18:48 > 0:18:52- on your wedding day? - Yes.- Yes.- One, two, three.
0:18:55 > 0:18:57David, what do you look like?!
0:18:57 > 0:19:00MUM LAUGHS
0:19:02 > 0:19:06- I'm loving your socks, David.- Can you guess the theme of your wedding?
0:19:06 > 0:19:09- Yes.- We can.
0:19:09 > 0:19:12- Alice In Wonderland.- Yes. - Yeah?- Ta-da!
0:19:12 > 0:19:16This is going to be the wedding day where literally anything can happy.
0:19:16 > 0:19:19- I can imagine it.- You look amazing!
0:19:19 > 0:19:22- You look amazing. - And you look beautiful, Mummy.
0:19:22 > 0:19:24- MUM:- Thank you, Ebony.
0:19:24 > 0:19:25Success!
0:19:25 > 0:19:29But things are about to get curiouser and curiouser.
0:19:29 > 0:19:32Got something for you to read, Mum.
0:19:32 > 0:19:34Tell us a story, Mum.
0:19:34 > 0:19:36- MUM:- "Ebony was beginning to get very tired of sitting
0:19:36 > 0:19:38"by the river bank and having nothing to do.
0:19:38 > 0:19:41"So she was considering in her own mind
0:19:41 > 0:19:43"whether the pleasure of her mum and dad getting married
0:19:43 > 0:19:46"would be worth the trouble of organising a wedding
0:19:46 > 0:19:48"when suddenly..."
0:19:48 > 0:19:50Oh, dear! Oh, dear!
0:19:50 > 0:19:52Ah, the White Rabbit!
0:19:52 > 0:19:54I knew there was someone missing.
0:19:54 > 0:19:56Oh, why, you're a funny looking pair.
0:19:56 > 0:19:59What are you doing just standing there? Follow me! Come on!
0:19:59 > 0:20:04- We're going to be late! - Go on, off you go.- Bye! Go, go, go!
0:20:04 > 0:20:06We really are going to be so terribly late.
0:20:06 > 0:20:10Waiting outside is the wedding transport, Wonderland-style.
0:20:10 > 0:20:12- What the...?- Oh, my word.
0:20:12 > 0:20:14- EBONY:- You're at the front.
0:20:14 > 0:20:17- Come on, hurry up, you've got to follow the White Rabbit!- Go on!
0:20:17 > 0:20:19We really are going to be so terribly late.
0:20:19 > 0:20:21MUM SCREAMS
0:20:21 > 0:20:24Right... Slow down, slow down!
0:20:24 > 0:20:26Slow down!
0:20:26 > 0:20:28Right, I'm pedalling, I'm going for it.
0:20:28 > 0:20:30- I just don't want to go too fast. - Don't go too fast.- OK!
0:20:30 > 0:20:34Quick, quick, quick! Keep up, keep up!
0:20:34 > 0:20:36We're going to be in so much trouble with the Queen,
0:20:36 > 0:20:41she's going to be so cross. Hurry up, hurry up! Quick, quick!
0:20:41 > 0:20:43Come on, Mum and Dad! This way.
0:20:47 > 0:20:51'Alice follows the White Rabbit down the rabbit hole.
0:20:51 > 0:20:54'Come on, Mad Hatter, what are you waiting for?
0:20:54 > 0:20:56'It's not like you're claustrophobic, is it?'
0:20:56 > 0:20:58'Erm, actually, it is.'
0:20:58 > 0:21:02I've never been late for a wedding before, I'm always on time.
0:21:02 > 0:21:05Here goes. Oh, I can't do this.
0:21:05 > 0:21:07Luckily, Dad's curiosity gets the better of him
0:21:07 > 0:21:11and he follows Mum into Wonderland.
0:21:11 > 0:21:12I know you love confined spaces.
0:21:12 > 0:21:15- I hate confined spaces.- Never mind, you don't have to do it again.
0:21:15 > 0:21:19- We're here now. Follow me over here. - Little mouth.
0:21:19 > 0:21:24On the other side, the couple spot a very curious but familiar smile.
0:21:24 > 0:21:27- Is that the Cheshire Cat?- Oh, yeah.
0:21:27 > 0:21:30The Cheshire Cat with a twist.
0:21:31 > 0:21:33Welcome to Wonderland, Mum and Dad.
0:21:33 > 0:21:36Time for some refreshments cos things are about to get
0:21:36 > 0:21:38curiouser and curiouser.
0:21:38 > 0:21:40Time for refreshments, did she say?
0:21:40 > 0:21:43Anything that we might be able to eat or drink?
0:21:43 > 0:21:46There's a little bottle on this table.
0:21:46 > 0:21:49- Ooh, what about this? Do you want to try a bit?- "Drink me."
0:21:49 > 0:21:53- Hurry, hurry, we're going to be late. - I'm scared! I don't know what it is.
0:21:53 > 0:21:54Just a little sip.
0:21:54 > 0:21:57Ooh, I wonder what will happen when you drink the drink.
0:21:57 > 0:21:59Next to the bottle reading "Drink me" is a tiny key.
0:21:59 > 0:22:01Grab that key, let's go and see where it takes us.
0:22:01 > 0:22:04Hurry up! Come on, quick, quick!
0:22:07 > 0:22:09Which lock will the key fit?
0:22:10 > 0:22:12Maybe give that a try, Alice.
0:22:12 > 0:22:15Come on, Mum. That door doesn't look very tiny to me.
0:22:15 > 0:22:17That's not right. Oh!
0:22:19 > 0:22:21- What about this one? - That's more like it, hop to it,
0:22:21 > 0:22:23you're late for your guests, remember?
0:22:23 > 0:22:24Come on in, Alice.
0:22:24 > 0:22:27No turning back now, Mum and Dad.
0:22:27 > 0:22:29We're about to hit maximum curiousity-ness.
0:22:29 > 0:22:31CHEERING
0:22:31 > 0:22:34An army of giant playing cards greets Mum and Dad
0:22:34 > 0:22:37as they make their big entrance through a tiny door.
0:22:44 > 0:22:47- LAUGHTER - I don't know why you're laughing,
0:22:47 > 0:22:50you're dressed as a giant playing card!
0:22:50 > 0:22:53- Are you ready, Mum and Dad, to get married?- BOTH:- Yes!
0:22:53 > 0:22:56APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
0:23:01 > 0:23:04That was the fantasy, now the reality.
0:23:08 > 0:23:11Rachel and David are about to get married for real.
0:23:13 > 0:23:18I, Rachel, take you, David, to be my wedded husband.
0:23:18 > 0:23:21I give you this ring as a symbol of our marriage.
0:23:21 > 0:23:25Time for the magical mad hat to play its part in the ceremony.
0:23:25 > 0:23:28CUCKOO! CUCKOO!
0:23:32 > 0:23:36I give you this ring as an outward sign of the commitment
0:23:36 > 0:23:37we are making to each other.
0:23:37 > 0:23:40This is the bit where you get to give her a kiss, congratulations!
0:23:40 > 0:23:42APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
0:23:44 > 0:23:46A confetti surprise
0:23:46 > 0:23:50and happy tears from the girl who's made it all happen.
0:23:50 > 0:23:53Mum and Dad are now officially married.
0:23:55 > 0:23:58But the Wonderland wedding's not over yet -
0:23:58 > 0:24:03time for the Mad Hatter's tea party around a table heaving with cakes.
0:24:03 > 0:24:04- IN HIGH-PITCHED VOICE:- Ahem, ahem!
0:24:04 > 0:24:08It gives one great pleasure to introduce
0:24:08 > 0:24:11Wonderland's newest newlyweds!
0:24:11 > 0:24:13APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
0:24:15 > 0:24:18Rings, confetti and now bubbles!
0:24:18 > 0:24:20This is officially the maddest hat ever.
0:24:24 > 0:24:26The tart-filled tea party
0:24:26 > 0:24:29begins with the cutting of the spectacular cake.
0:24:29 > 0:24:32CHEERING
0:24:32 > 0:24:34But what will Mum and Dad make of Ebony's choice
0:24:34 > 0:24:36of Wonderland flavour?
0:24:36 > 0:24:38Go for it, Dave.
0:24:40 > 0:24:42Dad's least favourite flavour in the world.
0:24:42 > 0:24:44It's coffee and cola.
0:24:44 > 0:24:46- Coffee and cola?!- Yes.
0:24:46 > 0:24:49Think yourself lucky it's not beetroot.
0:24:49 > 0:24:50But don't worry,
0:24:50 > 0:24:54you're spoilt for choice at the greatest tea party ever.
0:24:54 > 0:24:58Don't touch the jam tarts, though - we all know who they belong to.
0:24:58 > 0:25:01- IN HIGH-PITCHED VOICE: - Are you eating my tarts?
0:25:01 > 0:25:03I don't believe it!
0:25:03 > 0:25:07Nobody touches my jam tarts!
0:25:07 > 0:25:11Right, that's it! Prepare the royal croquet set!
0:25:13 > 0:25:15Croquet mallets, are you ready?
0:25:15 > 0:25:18BOTH: Oh, yes, we're ready, yes.
0:25:18 > 0:25:19Croquet balls, are you ready?
0:25:19 > 0:25:22- Yes!- Yes!- Then let's play!
0:25:22 > 0:25:23CHEERING
0:25:23 > 0:25:26On your marks, get set, go!
0:25:29 > 0:25:31'We know Dad hates fairground rides,
0:25:31 > 0:25:35'how's he going to cope spinning around in a giant croquet ball?'
0:25:35 > 0:25:39- How're you doing in there, David? - I'm fine! Let's go, come on!
0:25:43 > 0:25:46Yeah, yeah, yeah, we're on a roll now!
0:25:46 > 0:25:49'Ebony's gran steps in to give Dad some moral support.'
0:25:49 > 0:25:52Come on, Mum! Get in there, Mum!
0:25:52 > 0:25:54Actually, I think she might be trying to make him sick.
0:25:54 > 0:25:56Where are you going now?!
0:25:57 > 0:26:01As our dignified royal croquet match descends into chaos...
0:26:01 > 0:26:03Is that it?
0:26:03 > 0:26:07..it's up to judges Tweedledum and Tweedledee to declare a winner.
0:26:07 > 0:26:10Who do you think's won? Hmm.
0:26:10 > 0:26:11- BOTH:- Draw!
0:26:14 > 0:26:18So it's a love match and in Ebony's Wonderland wedding,
0:26:18 > 0:26:20everyone is a winner.
0:26:20 > 0:26:22It means to me a lot that Mum and Dad are married
0:26:22 > 0:26:25because we're a proper family now.
0:26:29 > 0:26:32- MUM:- 'Every step and every room had something different in
0:26:32 > 0:26:34'so we were constantly moving into something else
0:26:34 > 0:26:37'that was Alice In Wonderful-themed. That was awesome.'
0:26:37 > 0:26:39- DAD:- 'How she pulled it off, how she did everything,'
0:26:39 > 0:26:41it's just amazing what she's done.
0:26:41 > 0:26:44On your marks, get set, go!
0:26:48 > 0:26:50This wedding - one to remember.
0:26:50 > 0:26:54- And now Ebony can say, "I planned my mum and dad's wedding."- Yeah.
0:26:54 > 0:26:57And she should be happy about it, cos she's done us proud.
0:26:57 > 0:27:00This wedding has been magical,
0:27:00 > 0:27:03fun and emotional.
0:27:04 > 0:27:07SQUAWKS: Wow! What a wonderful wedding. Didn't Ebony do well?
0:27:07 > 0:27:09- SQUAWKS:- She certainly did!
0:27:09 > 0:27:11Mum and Dad chasing the White Rabbit,
0:27:11 > 0:27:13the Mad Hatter's tea party with a mad cake!
0:27:13 > 0:27:15And an even madder hat.
0:27:15 > 0:27:17Oh, and the Queen of Hearts.
0:27:17 > 0:27:23- Hey, where's she gone?- I don't know. I didn't like her anyway. Moody.
0:27:23 > 0:27:24Ah, there you are!
0:27:24 > 0:27:27I've been looking for you two. It's my turn for the croquet
0:27:27 > 0:27:31- and I've got a very firm grip.- Ooh!
0:27:32 > 0:27:35How dare you! Come back here!
0:27:35 > 0:27:37Off with their heads!
