0:00:02 > 0:00:06BOTH: Marrying Mum And Dad is back! CHEERING

0:00:06 > 0:00:07SCREAMING

0:00:07 > 0:00:08NAOMI: Get ready for more crazy parents

0:00:08 > 0:00:11handing over total control of their wedding day.

0:00:13 > 0:00:16The kids are in charge, they can do whatever they want.

0:00:18 > 0:00:21They have no idea what's about to happen.

0:00:21 > 0:00:24Are you ready for a huge surprise?

0:00:24 > 0:00:27They have to wait until their wedding day to find out.

0:00:28 > 0:00:30LAUGHTER

0:00:31 > 0:00:34It's a massive risk.

0:00:34 > 0:00:37And we've got less than four weeks to organise everything.

0:00:39 > 0:00:42Awesome.

0:00:42 > 0:00:43On today's show...

0:00:43 > 0:00:47I now pronounce you officially 100% in charge!

0:00:47 > 0:00:49Yes!

0:00:49 > 0:00:52..the kids want a wedding that is truly out of this world.

0:00:53 > 0:00:57Even if it means building a whole solar system by hand.

0:00:57 > 0:01:00Never wanted a poop-coloured planet.

0:01:00 > 0:01:01Can our secret wedding planners

0:01:01 > 0:01:04reach the stellar heights they're hoping for?

0:01:04 > 0:01:06- ALL:- Lift off!

0:01:06 > 0:01:09Or will their ambitions crash and burn?

0:01:11 > 0:01:14- We're about to find out... - Because we're...

0:01:14 > 0:01:16- ALL:- Marrying Mum and Dad!

0:01:39 > 0:01:43One of the most important days of your parents' lives, their wedding.

0:01:43 > 0:01:46Surely no mum or dad would be reckless enough

0:01:46 > 0:01:47to put kids in charge, right?

0:01:47 > 0:01:49Wrong!

0:01:49 > 0:01:50That's right.

0:01:50 > 0:01:53Three kids in Middlesex are in control of everything.

0:02:00 > 0:02:03Jade, Grace and Seb are two sisters and a brother

0:02:03 > 0:02:07who are boldly going where no wedding planners have gone before.

0:02:07 > 0:02:10My organising skills are the best on the planet.

0:02:10 > 0:02:12My gadget skills will come in handy.

0:02:12 > 0:02:14- RAPPING:- # Dad is stellar and Mum is amazing

0:02:14 > 0:02:16# This is why our theme is officially... #

0:02:16 > 0:02:18ALL: Stargazing!

0:02:22 > 0:02:24Stargazing, eh? Bright idea.

0:02:24 > 0:02:27Well, the first thing you need is to go and look at stars...

0:02:27 > 0:02:28is a telescope.

0:02:30 > 0:02:33We'll also need planets, constellations,

0:02:33 > 0:02:37and an unexpected astrological phenomena.

0:02:39 > 0:02:41An unexpected astrological phenomena.

0:02:43 > 0:02:47Mum Maddie, and Dad Shaughn have been engaged for 15 years.

0:02:47 > 0:02:4915 years?!

0:02:49 > 0:02:51No wonder the kids have decided to take control.

0:02:51 > 0:02:55- JADE:- My mum is a beautiful, caring mum.

0:02:55 > 0:03:00- GRACE:- My dad can be funny and silly sometimes.

0:03:00 > 0:03:02THEY LAUGH

0:03:02 > 0:03:03- SEB:- Daddy really likes space.

0:03:03 > 0:03:06He has his own massive telescope.

0:03:06 > 0:03:09He likes spotting all the planets.

0:03:09 > 0:03:11Dad's hobby has given the kids an idea

0:03:11 > 0:03:13that's new to Marrying Mum And Dad -

0:03:13 > 0:03:16a night-time wedding where not even the sky is the limit.

0:03:16 > 0:03:20Mum and Dad will be completely in the dark, of course.

0:03:20 > 0:03:22I'm going to be incredibly nervous.

0:03:22 > 0:03:26- DAD:- It's going to be a mixture of excitement and a little bit of fear.

0:03:26 > 0:03:29- LAUGHING:- There will be fear! Definitely.

0:03:33 > 0:03:35Bye!

0:03:35 > 0:03:37See you later, Mum and Dad.

0:03:37 > 0:03:41We've got secret wedding planning to do.

0:03:41 > 0:03:42You've done loads here.

0:03:42 > 0:03:45'The kids need a venue, but wherever they go in the country,

0:03:45 > 0:03:47'they won't get any closer to the stars.

0:03:48 > 0:03:50'Unless they look up.'

0:03:51 > 0:03:54And upwards doesn't come more spectacular than this -

0:03:54 > 0:03:57the Orbit Tower at the Olympic Park.

0:03:57 > 0:03:59The kids can take Mum and Dad into orbit

0:03:59 > 0:04:02whilst still in the heart of London.

0:04:02 > 0:04:05- There it is, the Orbit. - That's really tall.

0:04:05 > 0:04:07So how do we get up there?

0:04:07 > 0:04:09I'm not climbing them stairs.

0:04:09 > 0:04:11It does look a lot, doesn't it?

0:04:11 > 0:04:15'The Orbit was designed by famous artist Sir Anish Kapoor.'

0:04:15 > 0:04:18Luckily for Grace, he put in a lift.

0:04:18 > 0:04:22At 114 metres, it's officially the tallest sculpture in the world.

0:04:22 > 0:04:26Where better to be nearer the stars in a stargazing wedding?

0:04:26 > 0:04:29Eh, is the wedding venue of Mum's dreams

0:04:29 > 0:04:31a giant welded steel sculpture?

0:04:31 > 0:04:33BUZZER

0:04:33 > 0:04:36My perfect wedding would probably be

0:04:36 > 0:04:41very, very pretty, sparkly things.

0:04:41 > 0:04:42Em...

0:04:42 > 0:04:44A big castle, maybe.

0:04:46 > 0:04:49It may not be a pretty, sparkly castle,

0:04:49 > 0:04:51but the kids think this is a stellar wedding venue.

0:04:53 > 0:04:55It's a good view of London.

0:04:55 > 0:04:57Look at the Olympic Stadium.

0:04:57 > 0:05:00You can see the Gherkin. Canary Wharf over there.

0:05:00 > 0:05:03So can you see them getting married in this space?

0:05:03 > 0:05:05- SEB:- Yeah. There's plenty of room.

0:05:05 > 0:05:11So the view's great, but how do we turn a glass room into outer space?

0:05:11 > 0:05:14We could hang up planets and stars

0:05:14 > 0:05:16and make it look really spacey.

0:05:16 > 0:05:20- Big stars on the floor. - Mm-hmm. What, stars everywhere?

0:05:20 > 0:05:24- Yeah, like, stars on the floor, stars on the walls.- Fill it. Mm-hmm.

0:05:24 > 0:05:25Shall we say venue sorted?

0:05:25 > 0:05:27Yeah, venue sorted.

0:05:27 > 0:05:29Venue sorted. Big handshake.

0:05:29 > 0:05:31'It still needs some work,'

0:05:31 > 0:05:35but the countdown to launching Mum and Dad into orbit has begun.

0:05:39 > 0:05:41The kids have found their venue,

0:05:41 > 0:05:43but what happens if it's cloudy?

0:05:43 > 0:05:44Not much stargazing, then.

0:05:44 > 0:05:47We need to guarantee stars at this wedding.

0:05:47 > 0:05:48'We need...'

0:05:48 > 0:05:50Pop-up planetarium.

0:05:50 > 0:05:52'This portable, inflatable planetarium

0:05:52 > 0:05:55'will let us project stars on the wedding day whatever the weather.'

0:05:55 > 0:05:58- Do you like it? - Yeah. What's that thing up there?

0:05:58 > 0:06:00That's the moon.

0:06:00 > 0:06:02What are you picturing on the day, Jade?

0:06:02 > 0:06:05One of these, but twice the size,

0:06:05 > 0:06:07because it's got to fit all our guests in it.

0:06:07 > 0:06:10Well, I found this one, so you guys need to find a bigger one.

0:06:10 > 0:06:12Aye-aye, captain!

0:06:12 > 0:06:16Yep, if they want a bigger one, they'll have to find one.

0:06:16 > 0:06:18And the kids aren't just going to project stars,

0:06:18 > 0:06:21they want to screen a whole film in 360 degrees.

0:06:21 > 0:06:24I would like to do a story for the wedding.

0:06:24 > 0:06:29If we could get a famous scientist to tell the story,

0:06:29 > 0:06:31it would just be really cool.

0:06:31 > 0:06:33So the kids want to make a stargazing-inspired film

0:06:33 > 0:06:35for their stargazing wedding,

0:06:35 > 0:06:38and they want a famous scientist to feature in it.

0:06:38 > 0:06:41It's never simple, is it? This is a big idea.

0:06:41 > 0:06:42Fear not, Naomi.

0:06:42 > 0:06:44We're heading to Herstmonceux Observatory

0:06:44 > 0:06:45in East Sussex.

0:06:47 > 0:06:50We're hoping to persuade real-life space scientist

0:06:50 > 0:06:53Dr Maggie Aderin-Pocock to be in our film.

0:06:53 > 0:06:56Dr Maggie's presented loads of Mum and Dad's favourite astronomy shows,

0:06:56 > 0:06:59like Stargazing Live and The Sky At Night.

0:06:59 > 0:07:01What can I do?

0:07:01 > 0:07:04We've written a movie and we would like you to be part of it.

0:07:04 > 0:07:05What's the movie about?

0:07:05 > 0:07:08Mum being a star and Dad being a planet,

0:07:08 > 0:07:11and Mum gets attacked by aliens,

0:07:11 > 0:07:14but then Dad comes up and trumps the aliens away.

0:07:14 > 0:07:17So when you say "trumps" you mean "trumps"?!

0:07:17 > 0:07:19- Yeah.- Well, you're going to be in it, hopefully.

0:07:19 > 0:07:22I'm not doing any trumping, I'm sorry, guys.

0:07:22 > 0:07:24'Amazingly, this famous space scientist'

0:07:24 > 0:07:27agrees to be in our film about trumping planets.

0:07:27 > 0:07:30But is Dr Maggie really ready for these guys?

0:07:30 > 0:07:32- JADE:- Camera rolling. - SEB:- Camera rolling.

0:07:32 > 0:07:34- Sound ready. - GRACE:- Sound ready.

0:07:34 > 0:07:36Action.

0:07:36 > 0:07:39Space is amazing.

0:07:39 > 0:07:40When you look up at the night sky,

0:07:40 > 0:07:43you're seeing light that has travelled quadrillions of miles.

0:07:43 > 0:07:45- Cut!- Shall I do it again?

0:07:45 > 0:07:47What should I do differently?

0:07:47 > 0:07:50- Hand actions. - GRACE:- Louder.- Louder? OK, OK.

0:07:50 > 0:07:52I'm glad you haven't been directing me. You guys are harsh.

0:07:52 > 0:07:55Take two, here we go. Action.

0:07:55 > 0:07:57Space is amazing.

0:07:57 > 0:07:58When you look up at the night sky,

0:07:58 > 0:08:00the light that is...reaching your eye.

0:08:00 > 0:08:02- Cut.- Be louder this time.

0:08:02 > 0:08:03OK, even louder!

0:08:05 > 0:08:06At least they know what they want.

0:08:06 > 0:08:08The director is very demanding.

0:08:08 > 0:08:09I make the big decisions.

0:08:09 > 0:08:11I bet it's not like this on The Sky At Night.

0:08:11 > 0:08:14You're the scariest sound operator I've ever worked with.

0:08:14 > 0:08:16Fearing for my life.

0:08:16 > 0:08:19Time for take three. Action!

0:08:19 > 0:08:21Space is amazing.

0:08:21 > 0:08:23'Jade's finally happy and Dr Maggie is in the can.'

0:08:23 > 0:08:25Cut! That's a wrap. That's a wrap.

0:08:25 > 0:08:29It's safe to say that's entertainment sorted.

0:08:29 > 0:08:31See you at the premiere, Mum and Dad.

0:08:34 > 0:08:36The kids have come up with a dazzling idea

0:08:36 > 0:08:38for Mum's wedding dress.

0:08:38 > 0:08:40A starry and LED dress.

0:08:40 > 0:08:43She's actually going to have stars on her dress?

0:08:43 > 0:08:45And then Daddy's going to have similar to Mummy,

0:08:45 > 0:08:48but obviously not a dress, because that'd be silly.

0:08:48 > 0:08:50Oh, I don't know about that.

0:08:50 > 0:08:52But light-up outfits - that's genius.

0:08:55 > 0:08:57But why have the kids brought me back to the observatory

0:08:57 > 0:09:00in the dark of night?

0:09:00 > 0:09:02So what's looking through this telescope got to do

0:09:02 > 0:09:03with designing your mum's dress?

0:09:03 > 0:09:06We're going to look at moons and stars

0:09:06 > 0:09:08and then we want to put them on the dress.

0:09:08 > 0:09:10You want to actually have all sorts

0:09:10 > 0:09:14- of real-life constellations on the dress?- Yeah.

0:09:14 > 0:09:17This world-class telescope makes Dad's look pipsqueak.

0:09:17 > 0:09:20He's going to be so jealous.

0:09:20 > 0:09:22So that yellow dot up there, that's Jupiter, is it?

0:09:22 > 0:09:24Tonight we can see Jupiter really nicely.

0:09:24 > 0:09:26Can you see the stripes across the middle?

0:09:26 > 0:09:29Yeah. I can see two.

0:09:29 > 0:09:33Even the moon looks totally different when you're stargazing.

0:09:33 > 0:09:34Whoa!

0:09:34 > 0:09:37I can see craters and everything.

0:09:37 > 0:09:39Witnessing the infinite majesty of the heavens -

0:09:39 > 0:09:41what an awesome privilege.

0:09:41 > 0:09:45Now what we've got to do is stick it on a wedding dress.

0:09:45 > 0:09:47How hard can it be?

0:09:47 > 0:09:49Don't worry, Ed, the kids are on it.

0:09:49 > 0:09:51Jade takes inspiration from their evening stargazing

0:09:51 > 0:09:55and adds Mum and Dad's star-sign constellations to the design.

0:09:55 > 0:10:00A dressmaker will use LEDs to create the stars. Sorted.

0:10:05 > 0:10:08True to form, the wedding planners want to do something very different

0:10:08 > 0:10:10with the cake as well.

0:10:10 > 0:10:12What would you like the cake to look like?

0:10:12 > 0:10:13A big sun cake that's 3-D...

0:10:13 > 0:10:16I think it should be a chocolate cake, personally.

0:10:16 > 0:10:19..and then little pop cakes around the solar system.

0:10:19 > 0:10:23The kids want to build a solar system of cake planets,

0:10:23 > 0:10:27so we've beamed in intergalactic cake creative Sharon to help.

0:10:27 > 0:10:29But how do we turn these into planets?

0:10:29 > 0:10:32Right, we're going to cover them with some fondant icing.

0:10:33 > 0:10:37First up, choosing our planet cake colours.

0:10:37 > 0:10:41Unfortunately, Grace gets to choose mine too.

0:10:41 > 0:10:42What about brown and purple?!

0:10:42 > 0:10:44- Brown and purple?- Yeah.

0:10:44 > 0:10:47It's going to be the most disgusting-looking planet ever.

0:10:47 > 0:10:48OK, brown and purple.

0:10:51 > 0:10:54Icing mixed, we roll it out into a constellationary crust

0:10:54 > 0:10:56and wrap it around our planets.

0:10:56 > 0:10:58I've got a lumpy bottom.

0:10:58 > 0:11:00KIDS LAUGH

0:11:00 > 0:11:03There'll be eight planets in our cakey solar system,

0:11:03 > 0:11:04as well as a giant sun.

0:11:05 > 0:11:09- Planet poop!- Venus.- Earth.

0:11:09 > 0:11:11'And if you think an entire solar system

0:11:11 > 0:11:14'made out of cakes is ambitious, you ain't seen nothing yet.'

0:11:14 > 0:11:16Planet Poop's got the runs!

0:11:16 > 0:11:20'Cos they want to send one of these cakes into actual space.'

0:11:21 > 0:11:24For those who haven't sent a cake into space before...

0:11:24 > 0:11:25In other words, most of us, Ed.

0:11:25 > 0:11:29..here's the plan. Our small cake is attached to a big weather balloon.

0:11:29 > 0:11:33It goes 75,000ft up to the very edge of space.

0:11:33 > 0:11:36The balloon pops, said cake falls to Earth, we find where it lands

0:11:36 > 0:11:39and bring it back to join the rest of the cakey solar system.

0:11:39 > 0:11:42Oh, I forgot to mention, this is going to happen on the wedding day.

0:11:42 > 0:11:43ED SCREAMS

0:11:43 > 0:11:46This is all possible. People actually do this sort of thing.

0:11:46 > 0:11:50- Just depends on what the weather is like.- And also the weight.

0:11:50 > 0:11:53Oh, OK. How much does it have to weigh?

0:11:53 > 0:11:5580g.

0:11:56 > 0:11:59If the cake's too heavy, the balloon won't lift it.

0:11:59 > 0:12:02It's actually 76g.

0:12:02 > 0:12:04We're going to send the cake into space!

0:12:04 > 0:12:05Cake sorted.

0:12:05 > 0:12:07Cake in space on the wedding day?!

0:12:07 > 0:12:09To be continued.

0:12:13 > 0:12:15The kids have decided they want a car wrapped

0:12:15 > 0:12:17in super-shiny silver foil

0:12:17 > 0:12:19for Mum and Dad's starry wedding transport.

0:12:19 > 0:12:22I think if you fold it and bend it, it might stay in place.

0:12:22 > 0:12:25They test the concept on Seb's own radio-control car.

0:12:28 > 0:12:30Not bad, but Mum and Dad won't fit in that, Seb.

0:12:34 > 0:12:37Luckily, car-chroming king Gregory is on hand to show us

0:12:37 > 0:12:40how you wrap a car in shiny foil for real.

0:12:40 > 0:12:42Let me just grab a tape measure.

0:12:42 > 0:12:44Pull it, pull it, pull it.

0:12:44 > 0:12:46That's our piece.

0:12:46 > 0:12:47Oh, super-sticky.

0:12:47 > 0:12:50If this looks like we're about to put a big shiny sticker

0:12:50 > 0:12:52on an £80,000 sports car,

0:12:52 > 0:12:55it's because that's exactly what we're doing.

0:12:55 > 0:12:57Yeah.

0:12:57 > 0:12:58Yeah, drop it down.

0:12:58 > 0:13:01It's like covering a book at school.

0:13:01 > 0:13:03Giant stickers mean giant air bubbles,

0:13:03 > 0:13:07so the kids are on bubble-smoothing duty.

0:13:07 > 0:13:09She's on it. On it like a car bonnet.

0:13:09 > 0:13:11NAOMI LAUGHS See what I did...

0:13:11 > 0:13:14Oh, Naomi. I'm finding your car jokes TYREsome.

0:13:14 > 0:13:17In fact, I think they're EXHAUSTing.

0:13:17 > 0:13:18It's a good job.

0:13:18 > 0:13:21Peeling off the tape we laid first means the shiny sticker is cut

0:13:21 > 0:13:23and not the car.

0:13:23 > 0:13:25# Duh-da-da-da-da-da-da! #

0:13:25 > 0:13:27NAOMI WHOOPS

0:13:27 > 0:13:29So that's how you add stellar shine to a car,

0:13:29 > 0:13:32but it's a slow, fiddly job.

0:13:32 > 0:13:34If the kids can find one that's been chromed-up already,

0:13:34 > 0:13:38it'll be transport sorted.

0:13:38 > 0:13:40With just a few days to the wedding,

0:13:40 > 0:13:43the venue still needs decorating.

0:13:43 > 0:13:45Jade, Seb and Grace rope in some mates

0:13:45 > 0:13:49and set up a cosmic production line making hanging stars and planets.

0:13:49 > 0:13:50Jupiter!

0:13:50 > 0:13:52They find a bigger pop-up planetarium

0:13:52 > 0:13:56to give their guests that big-screen alien epic experience.

0:13:56 > 0:14:00Oh, and there's that small matter of sending a cake up into space.

0:14:02 > 0:14:03The kids check the weather forecast.

0:14:03 > 0:14:06We can't launch if it looks like the balloon carrying the cake

0:14:06 > 0:14:08will get blown into the sea.

0:14:08 > 0:14:10This is no longer just a wedding,

0:14:10 > 0:14:14it's a space mission, and no-one knows how it'll turn out.

0:14:17 > 0:14:19The morning of the wedding.

0:14:19 > 0:14:22The weather around London is worsening,

0:14:22 > 0:14:25so we're forced to move the balloon launch site 150 miles away

0:14:25 > 0:14:27from the wedding venue to Shrewsbury.

0:14:27 > 0:14:29The kids can't risk missing the ceremony,

0:14:29 > 0:14:32so the person launching the balloon needs to be a bit more,

0:14:32 > 0:14:34um, expendable.

0:14:34 > 0:14:36Morning, Steve, I brought your balloon,

0:14:36 > 0:14:39we're going to send it into space!

0:14:39 > 0:14:42Oh, no! No, I've ruined everything!

0:14:42 > 0:14:45- No, we've got a much bigger balloon than that one.- Oh, really?

0:14:45 > 0:14:46Yeah, way, way bigger.

0:14:46 > 0:14:47Oh, good.

0:14:48 > 0:14:50Steve is a weather balloon expert.

0:14:50 > 0:14:53If he can't get this small cake into space

0:14:53 > 0:14:56and back down in time to cut the cake, then nobody can.

0:14:56 > 0:14:58Sorry. Haven't had my elevenses.

0:14:58 > 0:15:01The cake goes in its special protective spacesuit

0:15:01 > 0:15:02known as clingfilm.

0:15:04 > 0:15:08String, bits of fishing wire - it's not exactly Nasa.

0:15:08 > 0:15:12It may not be the most hi-tech spaceship, but it's our spaceship.

0:15:12 > 0:15:15Can it get our cake to the edge of space and back?

0:15:15 > 0:15:18We're going to find out.

0:15:18 > 0:15:22Meanwhile, 150 miles away in East London,

0:15:22 > 0:15:24a wedding is about to take place.

0:15:26 > 0:15:30The ceremony room high in the sky has become the very cosmos itself.

0:15:32 > 0:15:37The kids' search for a shiny star car has come up trumps.

0:15:37 > 0:15:41And the supersized pop-up planetarium to screen the animated film is,

0:15:41 > 0:15:44well, popping up.

0:15:44 > 0:15:47This is going to be the wedding with everything.

0:15:47 > 0:15:49In fact, all that's missing is a cake.

0:15:51 > 0:15:54Ah, yes. About that cake.

0:15:54 > 0:15:56- SEB:- Hi, Ed. - GRACE:- Hi.

0:15:56 > 0:15:57- JADE:- So, how are you doing?

0:15:57 > 0:16:00'Good. I think we're nearly good to go.'

0:16:02 > 0:16:04You better get back in time.

0:16:04 > 0:16:06I know! I'm trying to send a cake into space.

0:16:06 > 0:16:08'What more do you want?!'

0:16:09 > 0:16:12The bosses want lift-off. Steve wants...

0:16:12 > 0:16:15- Gaffer tape. Can you get me some gaffer tape?- Gaffer tape?

0:16:15 > 0:16:18- That'll do.- That'll do?

0:16:18 > 0:16:20We're sending a cake into space, Steve,

0:16:20 > 0:16:23that's not a phrase I want to hear.

0:16:23 > 0:16:26Well, it'll have to do because the clock is ticking.

0:16:29 > 0:16:33Over in East London, Mum and Dad have been rocketed to a hotel

0:16:33 > 0:16:35just metres from the Orbit Tower.

0:16:35 > 0:16:37KNOCK AT DOOR

0:16:37 > 0:16:40- Hello.- Hello.- How are you doing? - I'm all right.

0:16:40 > 0:16:43- I have a special delivery for you. Your wedding outfit.- Fantastic.

0:16:43 > 0:16:46- Thank you very much.- Someone will assist you to get into that.

0:16:46 > 0:16:49- You're going to be blindfolded. - Wonderful. Thank you.- Bye.

0:16:49 > 0:16:54This morning I am feeling really, really nervous.

0:16:54 > 0:16:58Just so excited about what today's going to bring.

0:16:58 > 0:17:02Nervous? Tell me about it - I'm trying to send a cake up into space!

0:17:02 > 0:17:06Although Steve seems very laid-back for an intergalactic cake pioneer.

0:17:06 > 0:17:10- We're good to go?- Yep. - We're good to go!

0:17:10 > 0:17:13The weather balloon is full of helium gas, and there's a parachute

0:17:13 > 0:17:17that'll bring our cake, GPS tracker and camera safely back to earth.

0:17:17 > 0:17:21That's the theory, anyway. Time to call the kids to count us down.

0:17:21 > 0:17:23Finally!

0:17:23 > 0:17:29ALL: Five, four, three, two, one!

0:17:29 > 0:17:31Lift off!

0:17:31 > 0:17:34There you go!

0:17:34 > 0:17:37That's your mum and dad's wedding cake.

0:17:37 > 0:17:41Good speed, little cake. Mum and Dad's wedding's relying on you.

0:17:41 > 0:17:43Follow that cake!

0:17:43 > 0:17:47- Quickly!- Step on it! - Come on.- You better hurry up.

0:17:47 > 0:17:48All right, I'm on it.

0:17:48 > 0:17:50As the balloon shoots spacewards,

0:17:50 > 0:17:54we race to where the cake should finally land, over 100 miles away.

0:17:54 > 0:17:57Fingers crossed the wind doesn't blow it off course.

0:17:57 > 0:18:00- You're my sat nav. - Yes, I will be your sat nav.

0:18:00 > 0:18:03- Turn left. Sorry, right. - That's a good start.

0:18:05 > 0:18:08One cake on a mission. Will we ever see it again?

0:18:11 > 0:18:14Back in London, we can't hang on any longer.

0:18:14 > 0:18:16It's time for our three stars,

0:18:16 > 0:18:21plus one slightly squished orange planet, to reveal the wedding theme.

0:18:21 > 0:18:25On the count of three, you are going to open your eyes. Altogether.

0:18:25 > 0:18:26- ALL:- One, two, three!

0:18:28 > 0:18:30- DAD:- Fantastic. - MUM:- Wow.

0:18:33 > 0:18:35- Oh, my goodness.- Well done, guys.

0:18:35 > 0:18:36Wow!

0:18:36 > 0:18:38- JADE:- On your dress, Mummy... - This is so beautiful.

0:18:38 > 0:18:43..on your dress, on the front is Pisces for you.

0:18:43 > 0:18:46Then on the back is Libra for Daddy.

0:18:46 > 0:18:48That's so creative and so clever.

0:18:50 > 0:18:52So any guesses on the theme.

0:18:52 > 0:18:56- I think it's...- Stars?- Star themed?

0:18:56 > 0:18:59That is correct. You are having your very own stargazing wedding.

0:18:59 > 0:19:02- Wow, perfect!- Fantastic. Well done.

0:19:04 > 0:19:06Smiles all round.

0:19:06 > 0:19:07But would Mum and Dad be so relaxed

0:19:07 > 0:19:11if they knew a key part of their wedding was halfway into space?

0:19:11 > 0:19:13It's just crossed the Bristol Channel

0:19:13 > 0:19:16and it's at around about 19,500 metres.

0:19:16 > 0:19:18According to the GPS tracker,

0:19:18 > 0:19:21if everything goes to plan the balloon will come down in Wiltshire,

0:19:21 > 0:19:24still a good three hours' travel from the wedding.

0:19:24 > 0:19:26If all doesn't go to plan,

0:19:26 > 0:19:28well, the English Channel is waiting.

0:19:30 > 0:19:33Over in Stratford, Mum and Dad are seeing their wedding venue

0:19:33 > 0:19:35for the first time,

0:19:35 > 0:19:36through a telescope, of course.

0:19:36 > 0:19:37So it's not the crane.

0:19:37 > 0:19:39- GRACE:- Yeah, it's not a crane.

0:19:39 > 0:19:40- DAD:- It's the tower.

0:19:40 > 0:19:45Yep, it's called The Orbit, so you are literally going into orbit.

0:19:45 > 0:19:47- Fantastic! - MUM LAUGHS

0:19:47 > 0:19:50Come on, then, let's get the stars into space.

0:19:52 > 0:19:55Stars into space? Ha! We've got...

0:19:58 > 0:19:59..a cake into space!

0:20:05 > 0:20:08Well, what scientists call near space, actually.

0:20:08 > 0:20:1275,000ft above the surface of Planet Earth.

0:20:12 > 0:20:13Up here the temperature

0:20:13 > 0:20:16is a freezing minus-55 degrees Centigrade.

0:20:18 > 0:20:23This is officially the highest wedding cake in the galaxy.

0:20:23 > 0:20:26Steve and I celebrate with a cheese sandwich on the M5.

0:20:29 > 0:20:32Our cake would keep on going higher still, but we need it back,

0:20:32 > 0:20:34so Steve has set the balloon to burst.

0:20:37 > 0:20:41In less than an hour, our cake will land somewhere below those clouds.

0:20:41 > 0:20:43Where exactly is down to the wind.

0:20:43 > 0:20:45It's up to me and Steve to find it

0:20:45 > 0:20:48and get it back to the wedding in time for the cake-cutting.

0:20:53 > 0:20:54We'll need that cake soon, Ed,

0:20:54 > 0:20:58because it won't take Mum and Dad long to get to the wedding in this.

0:20:58 > 0:21:00What do you think?

0:21:00 > 0:21:02That's super-shiny.

0:21:02 > 0:21:06- SEB:- Dad, you're driving it! - Your own cosmic chrome-mobile.

0:21:08 > 0:21:09'Mum and Dad are on their way to the wedding

0:21:09 > 0:21:11'in a starry, chromed sports car.

0:21:14 > 0:21:17'Steady on, Dad, don't scratch the chrome.'

0:21:17 > 0:21:19As Dad puts his foot down in a sports car,

0:21:19 > 0:21:23'Steve and I are somewhere in Dorset in a people carrier,

0:21:23 > 0:21:26'but it doesn't matter, cos guess what we've spotted!'

0:21:26 > 0:21:28- COW MOOS - 'No, not a cow.'

0:21:28 > 0:21:30There it is! There it is! It's over there!

0:21:30 > 0:21:33There it is! That orange thing, that's our wedding cake!

0:21:33 > 0:21:34Wahey, let's go get it.

0:21:36 > 0:21:38Right. Got to get that cake!

0:21:39 > 0:21:42I don't believe it! This is amazing. Yes!

0:21:48 > 0:21:51I've got the cake! Steve, you see this?!

0:21:51 > 0:21:53Steve plays it cool, like a genius.

0:21:55 > 0:21:59- We did it!- We did it.- Yeah!- Yay.

0:21:59 > 0:22:01Now all we've got to do is get this to the wedding.

0:22:01 > 0:22:02Success!

0:22:02 > 0:22:04After an emotional goodbye with Steve,

0:22:04 > 0:22:06all I have to do is get on the train at Bath

0:22:06 > 0:22:09and travel back to Stratford in East London.

0:22:09 > 0:22:11Nothing can stop me.

0:22:11 > 0:22:13Except missing my train by a minute.

0:22:13 > 0:22:15PHONE RINGS

0:22:15 > 0:22:18- How are you getting on? - 'We just found the cake.'

0:22:18 > 0:22:19- Yes!- We've got it. Yes!

0:22:19 > 0:22:21Well, you need to come back with it.

0:22:21 > 0:22:24We need you here, we need the cake here. Now!

0:22:25 > 0:22:29Let's hope that's the right train, Ed, because the wedding is starting.

0:22:32 > 0:22:35Jade, Seb and Grace have found the ultimate way

0:22:35 > 0:22:37for Mum and Dad to arrive at The Orbit.

0:22:37 > 0:22:39CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:22:43 > 0:22:46Oh, we've had the most amazing day.

0:22:46 > 0:22:49Right, shall we get up into orbit?

0:22:50 > 0:22:55The wedding party is going into orbit and our cake from space is...

0:22:55 > 0:22:56Actually, where is it, Ed?

0:23:01 > 0:23:03The cake may still be en route...

0:23:06 > 0:23:12..but everything else is in place to finally marry Mum and Dad.

0:23:12 > 0:23:14I give you this ring as a symbol of our marriage

0:23:14 > 0:23:19and as a lasting reminder of the promises that we've made here today.

0:23:19 > 0:23:22I promise to love and cherish you and remain faithful

0:23:22 > 0:23:25and loyal to you for the rest of our life together.

0:23:26 > 0:23:29You are, by law, husband and wife.

0:23:30 > 0:23:32CHEERING

0:23:35 > 0:23:38Happy tears all round.

0:23:38 > 0:23:42Jade, Seb and Grace have pulled off a stunning stargazing ceremony.

0:23:43 > 0:23:45I know what you're thinking.

0:23:45 > 0:23:47Where is Ed Petrie?

0:23:47 > 0:23:49Well, since you asked, Naomi...

0:23:51 > 0:23:53..I'm in London!

0:23:53 > 0:23:55Not far now.

0:23:55 > 0:23:59A few hours ago, our cake was 75,000ft up in the air

0:23:59 > 0:24:02in near space. Now it's going underground.

0:24:02 > 0:24:05I've sent him lots of texts. No reply.

0:24:08 > 0:24:10At last, Stratford Tube station.

0:24:10 > 0:24:14We've travelled over 200 miles by car, train and Tube.

0:24:14 > 0:24:17The last few hundred metres to The Orbit is on foot.

0:24:17 > 0:24:19There's not a second to spare.

0:24:19 > 0:24:22Newlyweds, are you ready to see your wedding cake?

0:24:22 > 0:24:27'I'm stalling for time, but I can't put off the cake-cutting any longer.'

0:24:27 > 0:24:30I'm coming, Naomi!

0:24:31 > 0:24:32ALL: Whoa!

0:24:34 > 0:24:36The cake solar system looks stunning,

0:24:36 > 0:24:39but there's one very special planet missing.

0:24:39 > 0:24:41Where are you, Ed?

0:24:41 > 0:24:44Hold that cake-cutting!

0:24:44 > 0:24:47'One quick outfit change and I've made it.'

0:24:49 > 0:24:52This cake is a very well-travelled cake.

0:24:52 > 0:24:55Today, this cake has been to the very edge of space

0:24:55 > 0:24:59to be part of your wedding cake.

0:24:59 > 0:25:03'Against the odds, Mum and Dad get to cut their solar system cake

0:25:03 > 0:25:05'with all of the planets in place,

0:25:05 > 0:25:08'including one that's actually been to space.'

0:25:09 > 0:25:12You didn't cut that one? After all that!

0:25:12 > 0:25:13LAUGHTER

0:25:13 > 0:25:16You went for that one.

0:25:16 > 0:25:17It was closer.

0:25:20 > 0:25:23Cake mission accomplished, well done, Ed.

0:25:23 > 0:25:24The wedding's not over yet -

0:25:24 > 0:25:27there's still the star-studded entertainment

0:25:27 > 0:25:28in the pop-up planetarium.

0:25:30 > 0:25:34Dr Maggie introduces the kids' stargazing epic.

0:25:34 > 0:25:35'Space is amazing.'

0:25:35 > 0:25:37Good direction.

0:25:37 > 0:25:41For centuries, Planet Shaughn wandered lonely around the galaxy,

0:25:41 > 0:25:45silent apart from the occasional blast of toxic gas.

0:25:46 > 0:25:48'It has action.'

0:25:48 > 0:25:50The star known as Maddie was in danger.

0:25:50 > 0:25:52'Adventure.'

0:25:52 > 0:25:54And alien war raged in her solar system.

0:25:56 > 0:25:57'And a happy ending.'

0:25:57 > 0:25:59The star and the planet fell in love.

0:25:59 > 0:26:03Soon, new noisy planetoids arrived in the system.

0:26:03 > 0:26:06Their love would shine through the night sky forever.

0:26:06 > 0:26:10The noisy planetoids round off the entertainment with a song.

0:26:11 > 0:26:15# Don't close your eyes

0:26:15 > 0:26:17# Don't fade away

0:26:17 > 0:26:20# Don't fade away... #

0:26:20 > 0:26:22MUSIC: Rule The World by Take That

0:26:22 > 0:26:24# Yeah, you and me

0:26:24 > 0:26:27# We can ride on a star... #

0:26:27 > 0:26:30The wedding in the stars has come to an end.

0:26:34 > 0:26:38When I realised that I was going to get married in Orbit, I was,

0:26:38 > 0:26:39"This is crazy!

0:26:39 > 0:26:43"This is completely nuts," but how amazing and just fantastic.

0:26:43 > 0:26:44I thought, "I can't wait."

0:26:46 > 0:26:48It feels quite good that we've given them

0:26:48 > 0:26:52something that no-one else has had at their wedding.

0:26:55 > 0:26:58We love everything that they've done for us.

0:26:58 > 0:27:00We wouldn't change it for the world, so thank you.

0:27:00 > 0:27:04What a wonderful day. I love you all very, very much.

0:27:04 > 0:27:06Amazing.

0:27:06 > 0:27:09Epic.

0:27:09 > 0:27:12Super, spacey, marriage-errific.

0:27:12 > 0:27:14Wow, what a wedding!

0:27:14 > 0:27:16Jade, Seb and Grace pulled off something special there.

0:27:16 > 0:27:19You should have seen it when they saw her dress, when they saw Mum's dress.

0:27:19 > 0:27:21- Oh, it was just unforgettable. - I saw a cow.

0:27:21 > 0:27:24Oh, when they said their vows to each other, that was so romantic.

0:27:24 > 0:27:25Oh, I loved it.

0:27:25 > 0:27:27Yeah, all right, I get it - I wasn't at the wedding,

0:27:27 > 0:27:30I wasn't at the wedding. But how was the cake?

0:27:30 > 0:27:32Oh, what, that tiny bit of cake that went all the way

0:27:32 > 0:27:34to the stratosphere and back again?

0:27:34 > 0:27:37That cake was out of this world!

0:27:37 > 0:27:39They still haven't eaten it?!

0:27:39 > 0:27:40ED GROANS
