BOTH: Marrying Mum And Dad is back! CHEERING

0:00:020:00:04

Get ready for more crazy parents handing over total control

0:00:070:00:10

of their wedding day.

0:00:100:00:11

THEY LAUGH

0:00:110:00:13

The kids are in charge, they can do whatever they want!

0:00:130:00:16

Lift off!

0:00:160:00:18

That's your mum and dad's wedding cake!

0:00:180:00:20

Mum and Dad have no idea what's about to happen.

0:00:230:00:25

They have to wait until their wedding day to find out.

0:00:250:00:29

-Oh, wow!

-Fantastic!

0:00:290:00:32

It's a massive risk.

0:00:320:00:33

Smash it!

0:00:330:00:35

'And we've got less than four weeks to organise everything.'

0:00:350:00:39

It's disgusting.

0:00:390:00:41

On today's show,

0:00:410:00:42

Mum and Dad are following their daughter down the rabbit hole.

0:00:420:00:47

-I now pronounce you, Ebony, officially 100% in charge!

-Yeah!

0:00:470:00:52

Get ready for a Wonderland wedding where anything is possible.

0:00:520:00:56

Whoa!

0:00:560:00:58

Will our secret wedding planner still be smiling

0:00:580:01:00

at the end of the day?

0:01:000:01:03

Or will Mum and Dad make a sharp exit?

0:01:030:01:06

-We're about to find out!

-Because we're...

0:01:060:01:08

-ALL:

-Marrying Mum And Dad!

0:01:080:01:10

CHEERING

0:01:100:01:11

This is Marrying Mum And Dad and this is what's going to happen.

0:01:330:01:37

Over the next four weeks,

0:01:370:01:38

an 11-year-old girl is going to organise a wedding.

0:01:380:01:41

But not just any old wedding,

0:01:410:01:43

her own parents' wedding.

0:01:430:01:44

That's right, the kids are totally in control.

0:01:440:01:47

Mum and Dad have no idea what's going to happen

0:01:470:01:49

on their own wedding day.

0:01:490:01:50

Today, we're in Manchester

0:01:520:01:54

and our wedding planner with a difference is Ebony.

0:01:540:01:58

She's arty, creative...

0:01:590:02:02

She's a champion kick boxer

0:02:040:02:07

and she's shaping up for the challenge ahead.

0:02:070:02:10

I'm going to kick any boring ideas out of my mum and dad's wedding.

0:02:100:02:14

Ebony lives with her mum Rachel,

0:02:170:02:19

dad David and little sister Harmony.

0:02:190:02:22

My dad is really childish,

0:02:220:02:26

he's really funny and I love him so much.

0:02:260:02:30

I love my mum because she's really kind and sweet to me

0:02:300:02:33

and she always lets me watch DVDs in my bed.

0:02:330:02:37

HARMONY BABBLES

0:02:370:02:38

Harmony is only two

0:02:380:02:40

so she's not quite ready to organise a wedding just yet.

0:02:400:02:44

That means everything is down to Ebony.

0:02:440:02:47

This wedding's going to be crazy, magical and special

0:02:470:02:51

and the theme is Alice In Wonderland.

0:02:510:02:55

Alice In Wonderland

0:02:570:02:58

is one of the most famous children's books ever written.

0:02:580:03:01

In it, Alice follows a talking rabbit down a rabbit hole into Wonderland.

0:03:010:03:05

She goes to a Mad Hatter's tea party,

0:03:050:03:07

meets a floating Cheshire Cat

0:03:070:03:09

and plays croquet with the Queen of Hearts and her playing card army.

0:03:090:03:13

You can't have an Alice In Wonderland wedding

0:03:130:03:15

without a Mad Hatter's tea party, so we'll need loads of teacups.

0:03:150:03:18

And the Queen of Hearts who loves her jam tarts, don't forget about those.

0:03:180:03:22

And, of course, the White Rabbit who's always late, so we'll need...

0:03:220:03:25

a rabbit.

0:03:250:03:26

Ed, where did you get that from?

0:03:260:03:29

It's so cute!

0:03:290:03:30

Ebony has just four weeks before the big day

0:03:320:03:35

to turn her Wonderland dream into a reality.

0:03:350:03:38

I want to take over Mum and Dad's wedding

0:03:380:03:41

because I know if they did it, it's going to be boring,

0:03:410:03:44

they're going to be stressing out a lot.

0:03:440:03:47

'Sorry to tell you this, Ebony, but Mum and Dad ARE stressing out.'

0:03:470:03:52

I'm constantly trying to think what's Ebony got in mind,

0:03:520:03:56

what she's got in store.

0:03:560:03:57

Too late, Dad, it's happening!

0:03:570:03:59

I think my mum and dad are very nervous.

0:03:590:04:02

That makes me feel excited and very mischievous,

0:04:020:04:06

because they don't know what I'm going to pull out of my hat!

0:04:060:04:09

Ebony's search for a crazy location where she can cause mischief

0:04:130:04:17

has brought her to Samlesbury Hall.

0:04:170:04:19

It's 400 years old and full of Wonderland potential.

0:04:190:04:22

So I was thinking who from Alice In Wonderland could you imagine

0:04:220:04:25

-living in a house like this?

-The Queen of Hearts.

0:04:250:04:28

That's what I was thinking because of the symbols,

0:04:280:04:30

-they look like they're from a deck of cards.

-Yeah.

0:04:300:04:32

-It's almost like we'd painted it ourselves.

-Yeah.

0:04:320:04:35

We didn't, obviously, it's a historic building.

0:04:350:04:38

Ebony wants to fill her venue with Wonderland characters.

0:04:380:04:42

Give us your best Cheshire Cat grin!

0:04:420:04:44

And she's even planning to build her very own rabbit hole.

0:04:440:04:48

Anything's possible here!

0:04:480:04:51

Oh, yes, I like this.

0:04:510:04:53

-What would this be perfect for?

-The Mad Hatter's tea party.

-Exactly.

0:04:530:04:57

Look at this table!

0:04:570:04:58

Actually, I was thinking about the Mad Hatter -

0:04:580:05:00

are you sure you want your dad to be the Mad Hatter and not me?

0:05:000:05:03

Cos I think I'd make a great Mad Hatter.

0:05:030:05:05

-My dad's going to be the Mad Hatter.

-Right.

0:05:050:05:07

-So who am I going to be, then?

-The Queen of Hearts.

-A woman?

-Yes.

0:05:070:05:10

-You're going to dress me up as a woman?

-Yes.

-But you like the venue?

0:05:100:05:12

-You're happy with it?

-It needs to be a bit more magical.

0:05:120:05:15

A bit more magical? Oh.

0:05:150:05:17

Well, I guess Naomi can help you with that.

0:05:170:05:21

And as if by Wonderland magic...

0:05:210:05:23

Oh, there you are! Where have you been? Come on, you're late.

0:05:250:05:28

'This centre for illusions is perfect for Ebony's Alice theme.'

0:05:300:05:34

How did you get so tall?

0:05:340:05:37

'It's playing tricks with our minds and our bodies.'

0:05:370:05:39

What are you talking about, Naomi? You always look like that.

0:05:390:05:42

Do you think we could use something like this at the wedding?

0:05:420:05:45

-For the rabbit hole.

-Oh, at the end of the tunnel.

-Yeah.

0:05:450:05:48

To make it look like it's just disappearing

0:05:480:05:50

-and going on and on forever.

-Yeah!

0:05:500:05:52

'In one famous bit of the book,

0:05:540:05:55

'Alice drinks a drink that makes her shrink in size.'

0:05:550:05:58

You're tiny!

0:05:580:06:00

You're getting bigger, I'm getting smaller.

0:06:030:06:06

-We need to shrink my mum and dad.

-Just like this?

-Yep!

0:06:060:06:10

-So can we say venue sorted?

-Sorted!

-Sorted.

0:06:120:06:16

Ooh, you tricksters!

0:06:180:06:20

If Ebony can pull that lot off, it really will be a wonder.

0:06:200:06:23

Entertainment - croquet, because in Alice In Wonderland

0:06:270:06:31

they have flamingos and a little hedgehog

0:06:310:06:33

and they just play games with that. It's just really crazy.

0:06:330:06:37

Croquet is more often played using a wooden mallet

0:06:370:06:40

to hit wooden balls through narrow hoops. How hard can it be?

0:06:400:06:44

The idea is to beat your opponents,

0:06:440:06:47

getting through all the hoops, all right?

0:06:470:06:51

'Ebony gets off to a good start.'

0:06:510:06:53

You're going down!

0:06:530:06:54

'Then it's time to show them how it's really done.'

0:06:540:06:58

-Watch and learn, ladies.

-Yes, yes, I'm ready. Hit!

-Oh!

-Right.

0:06:580:07:02

-Very good.

-There we go.

0:07:060:07:07

You'll edit that so I don't look silly. Grr!

0:07:070:07:09

These hoops are faulty, they're not big enough.

0:07:120:07:14

Maybe you'd do better with a flamingo, Ed.

0:07:140:07:17

-Hit it hard. Lovely.

-There you go!

0:07:170:07:20

Superb.

0:07:210:07:23

So what do you think of croquet, Ebony?

0:07:230:07:25

-It was fun but it needs to be more crazy.

-More crazy?

0:07:250:07:28

Whoa!

0:07:300:07:32

-Is this crazy enough for you?!

-A giant croquet ball! Awesome!

0:07:320:07:36

Ebony wants a giant croquet ball, so she gets it - an inflatable Zorb.

0:07:370:07:42

But is this really what Mum and Dad will want on their wedding day?

0:07:420:07:45

SIREN BLARES

0:07:450:07:47

My dad doesn't like fairgrounds and he doesn't like to be spun around.

0:07:470:07:52

So it's not ideal for Dad, but Ebony's the boss.

0:07:520:07:55

-OK, Ebony, are you ready to be thrown down a hill?

-Yes.

0:07:550:08:00

I'll see you at the bottom!

0:08:000:08:01

Go!

0:08:050:08:06

Oh, she's gone right over!

0:08:060:08:08

-EBONY SCREAMS

-Whoa!

0:08:080:08:10

It's going really fast.

0:08:100:08:13

Whoa! Aah!

0:08:130:08:16

THEY LAUGH

0:08:160:08:17

-What does it feel like when you were going upside down?

-Er...

0:08:170:08:21

So you definitely want to put Mum and Dad inside giant balls

0:08:240:08:26

-and play croquet with them?

-Yes.

-Sounds good to me.

0:08:260:08:28

-Entertainment, sorted!

-No, wait, wait.

0:08:280:08:32

You're getting in this too, Ed.

0:08:320:08:34

It's not necessary, is it?

0:08:340:08:36

I'm not happy about this but Ebony won't take "Aaah!" for an answer.

0:08:370:08:43

Have fun throwing up.

0:08:430:08:45

This wasn't really part of my plan.

0:08:450:08:47

Go, Zorb!

0:08:470:08:49

ED SCREAMS

0:08:490:08:52

This is not something that most people do on their wedding day!

0:08:570:09:01

I can see why you were screaming now.

0:09:010:09:03

Mum and Dad are probably going to cry but I don't care,

0:09:030:09:05

-it's going to be fun!

-Right, the entertainment is definitely sorted.

0:09:050:09:08

It's going to be Alice In Chunderland.

0:09:080:09:11

You're right, Ed.

0:09:110:09:12

Hope the wedding cake doesn't make a reappearance...

0:09:120:09:15

And talking of cakes...

0:09:180:09:20

When they cut the cake, it's going to have rainbow layers

0:09:200:09:23

and I'm going to have crazy flavours.

0:09:230:09:25

-Just the weirder, the better.

-Yeah.

-OK.

0:09:250:09:27

Ebony wants to invent the crazy flavours for her bonkers

0:09:270:09:30

wedding cake. Time to call in the bonkers wedding cake expert.

0:09:300:09:33

-Shall we see what we can put together?

-OK.

0:09:330:09:36

Blueberries and beetroot.

0:09:360:09:39

Oh, that's one of my favourite things

0:09:390:09:41

with one of my least favourite things.

0:09:410:09:43

(I think if Ed doesn't like beetroot,

0:09:450:09:47

(I think we should put a bit more in.)

0:09:470:09:50

I heard that!

0:09:500:09:51

'Has Ebony created kitchen magic at her first attempt?'

0:09:530:09:57

Smell it.

0:09:570:09:59

Eugh!

0:09:590:10:00

'Er, no is the answer.

0:10:000:10:02

'What other disgusting - I mean,

0:10:020:10:04

'imaginative combinations does she have in mind?'

0:10:040:10:07

Coffee and cola.

0:10:070:10:08

'Coffee? Hang on, where have I heard that before?'

0:10:080:10:11

SIREN BLARES

0:10:110:10:13

-Coffee, horrible.

-Oh, yeah, coffee cake, no.

-Yeah.

0:10:130:10:15

Coffee cake's out of the question.

0:10:150:10:17

Excellent(!) The one flavour Mum and Dad don't want, with added cola.

0:10:170:10:21

I've never seen cake baking like this

0:10:230:10:26

and our Wonderland wedding planner's got plenty more

0:10:260:10:28

crazy combinations up her sleeve.

0:10:280:10:30

Smoke, cola, coffee, carrot...

0:10:300:10:34

'She's throwing everything into this cake mix!'

0:10:340:10:36

(At least Ebony hasn't spotted the mushroom flavour.)

0:10:360:10:39

Which of her cake flavour hopefuls will taste best,

0:10:400:10:43

or least worst, when they come out of the oven?

0:10:430:10:46

Ebony's brought along a guinea pig - me.

0:10:460:10:49

Come on, Ed. It's just a pretty pink cake.

0:10:510:10:54

Oh. It's weird.

0:10:550:10:57

It tastes like strawberry and sprouts.

0:10:570:11:00

-It's actually raspberry and radish.

-Oh, right, OK.

-Nearly.

0:11:000:11:04

Two things that definitely don't go together.

0:11:040:11:06

Stop moaning and keep eating!

0:11:060:11:09

This next cake looks nice and it tastes...

0:11:090:11:13

Eugh!

0:11:130:11:14

'Disgusting. Well, there's a surprise(!)'

0:11:140:11:16

Tastes like mud.

0:11:160:11:18

-Beetroot and blueberry.

-Eugh, you've stung me again!

0:11:180:11:21

Take it away from me. Bleuch!

0:11:210:11:23

Ebony, you do know wedding cake is meant to be enjoyed, don't you?

0:11:230:11:27

Smells familiar.

0:11:270:11:28

Carrot and it's got, like, crunchy bits in.

0:11:300:11:34

Toenails?

0:11:340:11:35

THEY LAUGH

0:11:350:11:37

Carrot and toenails?

0:11:370:11:38

-Oh, I know what it is - kiwi fruit.

-Yes!

-Yes.

-Yes!

0:11:380:11:41

Oh, this works. This is nice.

0:11:420:11:45

Kiwi and carrot - weird in our land, standard in Ebony land.

0:11:450:11:50

I think that was a very useful experiment.

0:11:500:11:52

One layer of this cake is going to taste very crazy indeed.

0:11:520:11:55

-Cake sorted?

-Yes.

0:11:550:11:57

Cake sorted!

0:11:570:11:59

That's brilliant, thanks(!)

0:11:590:12:02

Or did that cake sort you, Ed?

0:12:020:12:04

The wedding day is getting closer.

0:12:090:12:12

# I'm so excited

0:12:120:12:14

# And I just can't hide it! #

0:12:140:12:16

Stay focused, Ebony, you've still got to design all the outfits.

0:12:160:12:20

My mum is going to be Alice and I want Mum's dress to not be plain,

0:12:200:12:24

I want it to be really bright and exciting.

0:12:240:12:27

And true to form, Ebony has some unique ideas for Dad's hat.

0:12:270:12:31

And is his hat going to be completely mad?

0:12:310:12:34

Yes, it's going to have things coming out of it.

0:12:340:12:36

A mad hat with loads of things flowing out of it?

0:12:360:12:39

Yep, and the guests are going to be playing cards.

0:12:390:12:41

-How are we going to make this happen? Do you know?

-Nope!

-No.

0:12:410:12:45

Well, you've got to make it happen, Ebony.

0:12:450:12:47

Maybe illustrator Emma can help.

0:12:470:12:50

I want to make all my guests look like playing cards

0:12:500:12:53

but with the faces of my mum and dad.

0:12:530:12:55

-Oh, OK.

-Tricky!

0:12:550:12:56

Every suit in a deck has royal cards and Ebony wants to put Mum and Dad

0:12:590:13:03

on the two most important - the king and queen.

0:13:030:13:07

-So it's starting to come together a little bit now, isn't it?

-Yes.

0:13:070:13:10

Ebony gives the hand-drawn caricatures a seal of approval.

0:13:100:13:14

That's amazing.

0:13:140:13:15

'The next step is to scan the sketches into a computer

0:13:150:13:18

'and trace around the lines.'

0:13:180:13:20

You're quick at this, you've done this before.

0:13:200:13:23

'The digitized drawings are then flipped, coloured in by Ebony...'

0:13:230:13:27

-Oh!

-No, she's got a yellow face. Quick, delete.

-Undo.

-Great, undo.

0:13:270:13:32

'..and finally printed out really, really big.'

0:13:320:13:36

-Ooh!

-That is incredible.

0:13:360:13:38

'Ebony calls in her mates to help make king and queen cards

0:13:410:13:44

'for all four suits.

0:13:440:13:46

'Red paint for hearts and diamonds...'

0:13:460:13:48

-What a pretty heart!

-Oh!

0:13:480:13:51

'..and black paint for spades and clubs.'

0:13:510:13:53

It's like playing Twister when you've got to lean over, isn't it?

0:13:560:13:59

'It's a bit messy, but with a little help from her friends,

0:13:590:14:02

'Ebony might just pull off her big idea.'

0:14:020:14:06

THEY CHEER

0:14:060:14:08

-Yes, yes, yes! What do we think?

-That's cool.

-You like them?

0:14:080:14:11

-Yes.

-Can we say that's outfits sorted?

-Yes.

-Yes. Sorted! Ace!

0:14:110:14:16

-Oh, Naomi, that was a terrible playing card pun.

-You're welcome.

0:14:160:14:19

Every wedding needs transport

0:14:230:14:25

and Ebony has more bonkers ideas here,

0:14:250:14:27

this time with bonkers bikes.

0:14:270:14:30

'There are loads of vintage bikes at Paul's cycle museum.'

0:14:320:14:35

Wow! Just one or two bikes(!)

0:14:350:14:38

'And many of them would fit straight into Wonderland. Time to choose.'

0:14:380:14:42

Watch out, Ebony!

0:14:420:14:44

'Some of these bikes are over 100 years old,

0:14:450:14:48

'so even older than Ebony's dad.'

0:14:480:14:50

-I'm thinking maybe not this one for the wedding.

-Yep.

0:14:500:14:54

'But then Ebony spots a bike that's really different.'

0:14:540:14:57

-Two people.

-That is cool.

-Oh, it's got two saddles on it, has it?

0:14:570:15:01

-Yeah.

-This is wicked.

0:15:010:15:03

It doesn't steer like an ordinary bike.

0:15:040:15:06

Are you sure you trust me, Ebony?

0:15:060:15:08

Right... I'm shaking it!

0:15:080:15:11

Well, your mum's going to love this on the wedding day(!)

0:15:110:15:14

-So who's going to be sitting in the steering seat?

-My dad.

0:15:150:15:20

-And your mum's going to have a nice relaxing ride.

-Yeah.

0:15:200:15:22

-Does she trust your dad?

-I don't know.

-She's going to need to.

0:15:220:15:27

Hang on a minute, Ebony,

0:15:270:15:28

you're putting a bride on the front of THAT thing?

0:15:280:15:31

ALARM BLARES

0:15:310:15:33

I think my nightmare wedding transport would be

0:15:330:15:36

probably dependent on the elements

0:15:360:15:38

and I had hair sort of stuck all over my face

0:15:380:15:40

and wind everywhere, that would just drive me nuts.

0:15:400:15:43

So Mum wants wedding transport that protects her from the wind

0:15:430:15:46

and rain, absolutely not a tandem tricycle, then.

0:15:460:15:49

-Are you sure you're set on THIS bike?

-Yes.

-Why?

0:15:490:15:53

Because it's crazy and it's made for two.

0:15:530:15:55

-Can we give transport a big tick, then?

-Yes.

-Ring the bell!

0:15:550:15:58

BELL RINGS

0:15:580:16:00

'Chasing a rabbit on a bike, every bride's dream. Sorted.'

0:16:000:16:05

Over the past four weeks, Ebony has worked hard

0:16:060:16:09

to make Mum and Dad's big day a true Wonderland.

0:16:090:16:12

She's hand-painted giant playing cards.

0:16:120:16:15

Invented incredible, maybe even inedible, cake flavours.

0:16:150:16:19

And set up a white rabbit chase on bicycles.

0:16:190:16:23

Six days till the wedding!

0:16:230:16:26

-Yay!

-Yay!

0:16:260:16:28

She calls in to see the progress of Mum's Alice dress

0:16:280:16:31

with designer James.

0:16:310:16:33

That is incredible. Can we have more sparkles?

0:16:330:16:37

Yeah, yeah, of course.

0:16:370:16:38

And what about that one-of-a-kind mad hat for Dad?

0:16:380:16:42

Ebony visits prop builder Jeff to check her plans are coming together.

0:16:420:16:46

Where's the ring going to be?

0:16:460:16:49

What could possibly go wrong?

0:16:490:16:51

Er, everything?

0:16:510:16:53

The morning of the wedding - Wonderland.

0:16:570:17:01

At least it will be when Ebony's transformed it.

0:17:010:17:03

Will Mum and Dad be brave enough to venture down the rabbit hole?

0:17:050:17:08

Ebony's Wonderland is filling up with surprises and optical illusions,

0:17:080:17:12

including a magical tree with a special guest appearance.

0:17:120:17:16

Meanwhile, Mum and Dad arrive at the venue blindfolded

0:17:170:17:21

and with absolutely no idea of what's in store.

0:17:210:17:24

Very nervous because Ebony's very devious

0:17:240:17:28

and I'm just dreading what's going to happen

0:17:280:17:31

and what she's got in store for us and I'm quite claustrophobic, so...

0:17:310:17:35

Claustrophobic?

0:17:370:17:38

There's only one way into Ebony's wedding Wonderland

0:17:380:17:41

and that's down a tiny magic rabbit hole.

0:17:410:17:44

Off you go, Ebony.

0:17:440:17:45

Out the other side, nothing is the same.

0:17:470:17:50

Ebony transforms into her favourite Alice In Wonderland character

0:17:500:17:53

Tweedledee and her Tweedledum is her best friend Lydia.

0:17:530:17:56

-Morning!

-Good morning.

0:18:000:18:02

-How are you feeling?

-Nervous.

-Yes?

0:18:020:18:05

-Yeah, a little bit.

-Very nervous.

-Did you sleep last night?

0:18:050:18:08

-A little bit, a little bit.

-Here you go.

-Thank you.

0:18:080:18:11

Now, put your blindfolds on, there's someone to help you into outfits.

0:18:110:18:14

-Yep.

-OK.

-We'll see you in a bit.

-OK, you will.

-Thank you.

0:18:140:18:18

Thank you very much.

0:18:180:18:20

She puts the finishing touches to her Mad Hatter's tea party

0:18:200:18:24

and then, after weeks of secret preparations,

0:18:240:18:26

it's the moment of truth.

0:18:260:18:28

You're in safe hands... OK, all the way round.

0:18:300:18:32

Led in by Ed dressed as the Queen of Hearts,

0:18:320:18:34

Mum and Dad are about to find out the theme of their wedding.

0:18:340:18:37

'Fingers crossed Dad's colour's green...

0:18:370:18:39

'and purple and spots and stripes.'

0:18:390:18:42

Final touch.

0:18:420:18:43

Will Ebony get a wonderful Wonderland reaction?

0:18:430:18:46

Mum and Dad, are you ready to see what you look like

0:18:460:18:48

-on your wedding day?

-Yes.

-Yes.

-One, two, three.

0:18:480:18:52

David, what do you look like?!

0:18:550:18:57

MUM LAUGHS

0:18:570:19:00

-I'm loving your socks, David.

-Can you guess the theme of your wedding?

0:19:020:19:06

-Yes.

-We can.

0:19:060:19:09

-Alice In Wonderland.

-Yes.

-Yeah?

-Ta-da!

0:19:090:19:12

This is going to be the wedding day where literally anything can happy.

0:19:120:19:16

-I can imagine it.

-You look amazing!

0:19:160:19:19

-You look amazing.

-And you look beautiful, Mummy.

0:19:190:19:22

-MUM:

-Thank you, Ebony.

0:19:220:19:24

Success!

0:19:240:19:25

But things are about to get curiouser and curiouser.

0:19:250:19:29

Got something for you to read, Mum.

0:19:290:19:32

Tell us a story, Mum.

0:19:320:19:34

-MUM:

-"Ebony was beginning to get very tired of sitting

0:19:340:19:36

"by the river bank and having nothing to do.

0:19:360:19:38

"So she was considering in her own mind

0:19:380:19:41

"whether the pleasure of her mum and dad getting married

0:19:410:19:43

"would be worth the trouble of organising a wedding

0:19:430:19:46

"when suddenly..."

0:19:460:19:48

Oh, dear! Oh, dear!

0:19:480:19:50

Ah, the White Rabbit!

0:19:500:19:52

I knew there was someone missing.

0:19:520:19:54

Oh, why, you're a funny looking pair.

0:19:540:19:56

What are you doing just standing there? Follow me! Come on!

0:19:560:19:59

-We're going to be late!

-Go on, off you go.

-Bye! Go, go, go!

0:19:590:20:04

We really are going to be so terribly late.

0:20:040:20:06

Waiting outside is the wedding transport, Wonderland-style.

0:20:060:20:10

-What the...?

-Oh, my word.

0:20:100:20:12

-EBONY:

-You're at the front.

0:20:120:20:14

-Come on, hurry up, you've got to follow the White Rabbit!

-Go on!

0:20:140:20:17

We really are going to be so terribly late.

0:20:170:20:19

MUM SCREAMS

0:20:190:20:21

Right... Slow down, slow down!

0:20:210:20:24

Slow down!

0:20:240:20:26

Right, I'm pedalling, I'm going for it.

0:20:260:20:28

-I just don't want to go too fast.

-Don't go too fast.

-OK!

0:20:280:20:30

Quick, quick, quick! Keep up, keep up!

0:20:300:20:34

We're going to be in so much trouble with the Queen,

0:20:340:20:36

she's going to be so cross. Hurry up, hurry up! Quick, quick!

0:20:360:20:41

Come on, Mum and Dad! This way.

0:20:410:20:43

'Alice follows the White Rabbit down the rabbit hole.

0:20:470:20:51

'Come on, Mad Hatter, what are you waiting for?

0:20:510:20:54

'It's not like you're claustrophobic, is it?'

0:20:540:20:56

'Erm, actually, it is.'

0:20:560:20:58

I've never been late for a wedding before, I'm always on time.

0:20:580:21:02

Here goes. Oh, I can't do this.

0:21:020:21:05

Luckily, Dad's curiosity gets the better of him

0:21:050:21:07

and he follows Mum into Wonderland.

0:21:070:21:11

I know you love confined spaces.

0:21:110:21:12

-I hate confined spaces.

-Never mind, you don't have to do it again.

0:21:120:21:15

-We're here now. Follow me over here.

-Little mouth.

0:21:150:21:19

On the other side, the couple spot a very curious but familiar smile.

0:21:190:21:24

-Is that the Cheshire Cat?

-Oh, yeah.

0:21:240:21:27

The Cheshire Cat with a twist.

0:21:270:21:30

Welcome to Wonderland, Mum and Dad.

0:21:310:21:33

Time for some refreshments cos things are about to get

0:21:330:21:36

curiouser and curiouser.

0:21:360:21:38

Time for refreshments, did she say?

0:21:380:21:40

Anything that we might be able to eat or drink?

0:21:400:21:43

There's a little bottle on this table.

0:21:430:21:46

-Ooh, what about this? Do you want to try a bit?

-"Drink me."

0:21:460:21:49

-Hurry, hurry, we're going to be late.

-I'm scared! I don't know what it is.

0:21:490:21:53

Just a little sip.

0:21:530:21:54

Ooh, I wonder what will happen when you drink the drink.

0:21:540:21:57

Next to the bottle reading "Drink me" is a tiny key.

0:21:570:21:59

Grab that key, let's go and see where it takes us.

0:21:590:22:01

Hurry up! Come on, quick, quick!

0:22:010:22:04

Which lock will the key fit?

0:22:070:22:09

Maybe give that a try, Alice.

0:22:100:22:12

Come on, Mum. That door doesn't look very tiny to me.

0:22:120:22:15

That's not right. Oh!

0:22:150:22:17

-What about this one?

-That's more like it, hop to it,

0:22:190:22:21

you're late for your guests, remember?

0:22:210:22:23

Come on in, Alice.

0:22:230:22:24

No turning back now, Mum and Dad.

0:22:240:22:27

We're about to hit maximum curiousity-ness.

0:22:270:22:29

CHEERING

0:22:290:22:31

An army of giant playing cards greets Mum and Dad

0:22:310:22:34

as they make their big entrance through a tiny door.

0:22:340:22:37

-LAUGHTER

-I don't know why you're laughing,

0:22:440:22:47

you're dressed as a giant playing card!

0:22:470:22:50

-Are you ready, Mum and Dad, to get married?

-BOTH:

-Yes!

0:22:500:22:53

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

0:22:530:22:56

That was the fantasy, now the reality.

0:23:010:23:04

Rachel and David are about to get married for real.

0:23:080:23:11

I, Rachel, take you, David, to be my wedded husband.

0:23:130:23:18

I give you this ring as a symbol of our marriage.

0:23:180:23:21

Time for the magical mad hat to play its part in the ceremony.

0:23:210:23:25

CUCKOO! CUCKOO!

0:23:250:23:28

I give you this ring as an outward sign of the commitment

0:23:320:23:36

we are making to each other.

0:23:360:23:37

This is the bit where you get to give her a kiss, congratulations!

0:23:370:23:40

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

0:23:400:23:42

A confetti surprise

0:23:440:23:46

and happy tears from the girl who's made it all happen.

0:23:460:23:50

Mum and Dad are now officially married.

0:23:500:23:53

But the Wonderland wedding's not over yet -

0:23:550:23:58

time for the Mad Hatter's tea party around a table heaving with cakes.

0:23:580:24:03

-IN HIGH-PITCHED VOICE:

-Ahem, ahem!

0:24:030:24:04

It gives one great pleasure to introduce

0:24:040:24:08

Wonderland's newest newlyweds!

0:24:080:24:11

APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

0:24:110:24:13

Rings, confetti and now bubbles!

0:24:150:24:18

This is officially the maddest hat ever.

0:24:180:24:20

The tart-filled tea party

0:24:240:24:26

begins with the cutting of the spectacular cake.

0:24:260:24:29

CHEERING

0:24:290:24:32

But what will Mum and Dad make of Ebony's choice

0:24:320:24:34

of Wonderland flavour?

0:24:340:24:36

Go for it, Dave.

0:24:360:24:38

Dad's least favourite flavour in the world.

0:24:400:24:42

It's coffee and cola.

0:24:420:24:44

-Coffee and cola?!

-Yes.

0:24:440:24:46

Think yourself lucky it's not beetroot.

0:24:460:24:49

But don't worry,

0:24:490:24:50

you're spoilt for choice at the greatest tea party ever.

0:24:500:24:54

Don't touch the jam tarts, though - we all know who they belong to.

0:24:540:24:58

-IN HIGH-PITCHED VOICE:

-Are you eating my tarts?

0:24:580:25:01

I don't believe it!

0:25:010:25:03

Nobody touches my jam tarts!

0:25:030:25:07

Right, that's it! Prepare the royal croquet set!

0:25:070:25:11

Croquet mallets, are you ready?

0:25:130:25:15

BOTH: Oh, yes, we're ready, yes.

0:25:150:25:18

Croquet balls, are you ready?

0:25:180:25:19

-Yes!

-Yes!

-Then let's play!

0:25:190:25:22

CHEERING

0:25:220:25:23

On your marks, get set, go!

0:25:230:25:26

'We know Dad hates fairground rides,

0:25:290:25:31

'how's he going to cope spinning around in a giant croquet ball?'

0:25:310:25:35

-How're you doing in there, David?

-I'm fine! Let's go, come on!

0:25:350:25:39

Yeah, yeah, yeah, we're on a roll now!

0:25:430:25:46

'Ebony's gran steps in to give Dad some moral support.'

0:25:460:25:49

Come on, Mum! Get in there, Mum!

0:25:490:25:52

Actually, I think she might be trying to make him sick.

0:25:520:25:54

Where are you going now?!

0:25:540:25:56

As our dignified royal croquet match descends into chaos...

0:25:570:26:01

Is that it?

0:26:010:26:03

..it's up to judges Tweedledum and Tweedledee to declare a winner.

0:26:030:26:07

Who do you think's won? Hmm.

0:26:070:26:10

-BOTH:

-Draw!

0:26:100:26:11

So it's a love match and in Ebony's Wonderland wedding,

0:26:140:26:18

everyone is a winner.

0:26:180:26:20

It means to me a lot that Mum and Dad are married

0:26:200:26:22

because we're a proper family now.

0:26:220:26:25

-MUM:

-'Every step and every room had something different in

0:26:290:26:32

'so we were constantly moving into something else

0:26:320:26:34

'that was Alice In Wonderful-themed. That was awesome.'

0:26:340:26:37

-DAD:

-'How she pulled it off, how she did everything,'

0:26:370:26:39

it's just amazing what she's done.

0:26:390:26:41

On your marks, get set, go!

0:26:410:26:44

This wedding - one to remember.

0:26:480:26:50

-And now Ebony can say, "I planned my mum and dad's wedding."

-Yeah.

0:26:500:26:54

And she should be happy about it, cos she's done us proud.

0:26:540:26:57

This wedding has been magical,

0:26:570:27:00

fun and emotional.

0:27:000:27:03

SQUAWKS: Wow! What a wonderful wedding. Didn't Ebony do well?

0:27:040:27:07

-SQUAWKS:

-She certainly did!

0:27:070:27:09

Mum and Dad chasing the White Rabbit,

0:27:090:27:11

the Mad Hatter's tea party with a mad cake!

0:27:110:27:13

And an even madder hat.

0:27:130:27:15

Oh, and the Queen of Hearts.

0:27:150:27:17

-Hey, where's she gone?

-I don't know. I didn't like her anyway. Moody.

0:27:170:27:23

Ah, there you are!

0:27:230:27:24

I've been looking for you two. It's my turn for the croquet

0:27:240:27:27

-and I've got a very firm grip.

-Ooh!

0:27:270:27:31

How dare you! Come back here!

0:27:320:27:35

Off with their heads!
