0:00:02 > 0:00:06We're back for a Valentine's special. The pressure's on for our Irish joiner, Daryl...
0:00:06 > 0:00:09If I mess this up, that's it. Just game over, like.
0:00:09 > 0:00:12..who has just three weeks and £12,000...
0:00:12 > 0:00:14It's just awful.
0:00:14 > 0:00:17..to give his childhood sweetheart the perfect wedding.
0:00:17 > 0:00:19I want to be a knight in shining armour.
0:00:19 > 0:00:22With a groom who forgets Valentine's Day...
0:00:22 > 0:00:25This is the armour we're talking about, what do you think?
0:00:25 > 0:00:27Men can't be seen to be romantic.
0:00:27 > 0:00:30..and an impatient brides who's already bought her dress...
0:00:30 > 0:00:34I'm devastated that I can't wear it.
0:00:34 > 0:00:36Will this knight in shining armour...
0:00:36 > 0:00:39It's huge. Do you think it's a good idea still?
0:00:39 > 0:00:40..rise to the challenge?
0:00:40 > 0:00:43It's all well and good Clodagh liking her dress,
0:00:43 > 0:00:46but the horse has got to like it as well, like.
0:00:46 > 0:00:48Or will his DIY wedding...
0:00:48 > 0:00:50- It's ridiculous.- It is, isn't it?
0:00:50 > 0:00:52She doesn't like tack at all.
0:00:52 > 0:00:55..completely fall apart?
0:00:55 > 0:00:57- How romantic is this? - Can this man...- This is what I like.
0:00:57 > 0:01:02- ..give this woman the romantic wedding... - I'm not wearing that.- ..of the year?
0:01:02 > 0:01:04Complete and utter disaster.
0:01:04 > 0:01:06He's making a joke out of me.
0:01:18 > 0:01:23This Valentine's, 27-year-old Daryl from Wicklow in Ireland
0:01:23 > 0:01:27is determined to give his 26-year-old fiance Clodagh
0:01:27 > 0:01:29the romantic wedding she's always dreamed of.
0:01:29 > 0:01:32It's going to be the most romantic thing I've ever done
0:01:32 > 0:01:36and hopefully most romantic thing she's ever seen.
0:01:36 > 0:01:41Cupid fired his arrow ten years ago when classical musician Clodagh saw Daryl's traditional Irish band
0:01:41 > 0:01:43play at a local pub.
0:01:43 > 0:01:45I met Daryl when I was only 15.
0:01:45 > 0:01:49One of my friends convinced me to go to this Irish music night.
0:01:50 > 0:01:52I walked in and sat down and there was this boy
0:01:52 > 0:01:56sitting in front of me with big hands and a small violin.
0:01:56 > 0:01:58It was mesmerising.
0:01:59 > 0:02:03He turned around and that was kind of it.
0:02:03 > 0:02:07I turned around and said, "She's the girl I want to marry."
0:02:07 > 0:02:09I knew straight away from then on.
0:02:09 > 0:02:12# You've got the love I need to see me through
0:02:13 > 0:02:15# You've got the love You've got the love... #
0:02:15 > 0:02:18For these teenage sweethearts,
0:02:18 > 0:02:22it was the start of a beautiful relationship.
0:02:22 > 0:02:26You build up this image, a dream of your ideal woman and, you know,
0:02:26 > 0:02:31perfection, and then you meet Clodagh and it's way beyond that.
0:02:32 > 0:02:33You're amazing.
0:02:33 > 0:02:38He's just everything to me. Makes me happy, makes me feel safe.
0:02:38 > 0:02:42And I want to be with him when I am old and wrinkly and grey.
0:02:42 > 0:02:45The couple now live together just outside Belfast
0:02:45 > 0:02:47with their puppy, Poppy.
0:02:50 > 0:02:55And last year, Daryl finally popped the question after a decade.
0:02:55 > 0:02:58I just want to spend the rest of my life with her, simple as that.
0:02:58 > 0:03:01There's nobody else. She's the one.
0:03:02 > 0:03:05I want everybody to know that he's mine.
0:03:08 > 0:03:11Now Clodagh's handing over all control
0:03:11 > 0:03:14of the most romantic day of their lives,
0:03:14 > 0:03:17around the most romantic date in the calendar.
0:03:17 > 0:03:21The problem is, when it comes to romance, Daryl is clueless.
0:03:21 > 0:03:22We've been together ten years.
0:03:22 > 0:03:27In the ten years, he's remembered Valentine's Day once.
0:03:27 > 0:03:31Yeah, I am not into Valentine's Day. I am not into the romantic...
0:03:31 > 0:03:34If there was a competition for the most unromantic man in Ireland,
0:03:34 > 0:03:36he'd probably win.
0:03:36 > 0:03:40- Men can't be seen to be romantic. - And you're planning my wedding?
0:03:40 > 0:03:43- Yeah.- For Valentine's! - It'll be great.
0:03:43 > 0:03:46And it's not just their ideas of romance that differ.
0:03:46 > 0:03:49A joiner by trade, Daryl is never happier
0:03:49 > 0:03:52than when he heads outdoors for a spot of do-it-yourself.
0:03:52 > 0:03:57I am a country guy. I was born in the country, outdoors person.
0:03:57 > 0:04:00I like being outside in the fresh air.
0:04:00 > 0:04:02Clodagh's days couldn't be more different.
0:04:02 > 0:04:04Hi, I am Clodagh, one of the doctors.
0:04:04 > 0:04:06As a newly qualified doctor,
0:04:06 > 0:04:08her time is spent almost entirely indoors.
0:04:08 > 0:04:11I had to work really hard to get into medical school
0:04:11 > 0:04:16You have to be organised and focused and able to get the job done, but it was all worth it.
0:04:16 > 0:04:18And the differences don't end there.
0:04:19 > 0:04:22- I like classical music. - I like Irish music.
0:04:22 > 0:04:26I like plain, neutral colours. DARYL SIGHS
0:04:26 > 0:04:29Bright colours, glow in the dark paint - brilliant.
0:04:29 > 0:04:32- I wanted a big dog. - A small dog, has to be a small dog.
0:04:32 > 0:04:33We got a small dog.
0:04:33 > 0:04:35- Can I take the dog with me?- No.
0:04:35 > 0:04:40We are the most mismatched couple you could possibly get.
0:04:40 > 0:04:44On paper it should not work. It makes no sense, but it just works.
0:04:44 > 0:04:46Perfectly.
0:04:46 > 0:04:49And it's not just their different tastes that worry Clodagh
0:04:49 > 0:04:52because when DIY Daryl does it himself, anything can happen.
0:04:52 > 0:04:56I would describe him as a bit off the wall.
0:04:56 > 0:04:57Liable to do anything,
0:04:57 > 0:05:01a bit dangerous with his ideas running away.
0:05:01 > 0:05:03I do get tunnel vision.
0:05:03 > 0:05:07I see something and just go with it and I can't be swayed.
0:05:07 > 0:05:11I'm dreading the thoughts of what Daryl might do.
0:05:11 > 0:05:15And this is a bride who knows exactly what she would do.
0:05:15 > 0:05:18Clodagh spent the last ten years planning her dream wedding.
0:05:18 > 0:05:21He's going to struggle because I know exactly what I want.
0:05:22 > 0:05:26I'm definitely looking for the classic, traditional white wedding.
0:05:26 > 0:05:29I am thinking dark pinks, kind of colour scheme.
0:05:29 > 0:05:33A country house hotel where there's lots of nice places to take pictures.
0:05:33 > 0:05:35And she's already bought her bridesmaid dresses
0:05:35 > 0:05:38and splashed out on the big one.
0:05:38 > 0:05:41A week after the engagement she had bought her dress.
0:05:41 > 0:05:43That's getting things moving!
0:05:43 > 0:05:45She's not going to be wearing it now.
0:05:47 > 0:05:49I've got to get you a dress.
0:05:49 > 0:05:53It really, really upsets me that I can't wear it
0:05:53 > 0:05:55and that Daryl's going to pick something
0:05:55 > 0:05:57and it's not going to be THE dress.
0:05:57 > 0:06:01Daryl's never seen the dress, but Clodagh hopes her unromantic man
0:06:01 > 0:06:05will reveal his inner Romeo and dream up something better.
0:06:05 > 0:06:08Behind it all, I think Daryl's a big softy.
0:06:08 > 0:06:10There's a romantic soul deep inside somewhere.
0:06:10 > 0:06:12He just needs to prove himself.
0:06:12 > 0:06:15So having failed to show a romantic side in ten years,
0:06:15 > 0:06:19how will Daryl sweep Clodagh off her feet this Valentine's?
0:06:19 > 0:06:23- This will do for Valentine's Day. - Be careful what it might chop.
0:06:23 > 0:06:26This is just going to blow her away, it'll be huge.
0:06:26 > 0:06:30I want everything she's ever dreamed of and stuff she's never thought of.
0:06:30 > 0:06:33We're going to be riding in on horses, suits of armour,
0:06:33 > 0:06:37fires going all over the place, big pig on a spit -
0:06:37 > 0:06:40oh, it's going to be amazing.
0:06:40 > 0:06:43It's Valentine's Day, I'm handing over control to Daryl
0:06:43 > 0:06:48for the biggest, most important day of a girl's life.
0:06:49 > 0:06:51I must be mental.
0:06:51 > 0:06:52It'll be grand.
0:06:52 > 0:06:56It's time for these star-crossed lovers to say goodbye.
0:07:00 > 0:07:04- Going to miss you.- Really?
0:07:07 > 0:07:11The next time they see each other will be on the biggest,
0:07:11 > 0:07:15and, hopefully, most romantic day of their lives.
0:07:17 > 0:07:21It's really weird that he's gone and I'm not going to see him
0:07:21 > 0:07:24till the wedding day. It's really strange.
0:07:26 > 0:07:28I'd normally talk to him about this.
0:07:30 > 0:07:33I've spoken to Clo every single day since I have known her.
0:07:36 > 0:07:41This isn't going to be easy at all now. It's a bit upsetting.
0:07:41 > 0:07:44And I am going to put absolutely everything into this
0:07:44 > 0:07:48and give her a day now that she'll never forget.
0:07:48 > 0:07:51And Daryl's has made a good start with his first romantic gesture.
0:07:51 > 0:07:54He plans to have the wedding back in their hometown.
0:07:54 > 0:07:56He's heading 200 miles to County Wicklow
0:07:56 > 0:08:00to stay with his mum and dad for the next three weeks.
0:08:00 > 0:08:01Oh, hello, son!
0:08:01 > 0:08:03BOTH LAUGH
0:08:04 > 0:08:09If Daryl hopes to make his DIY wedding the most romantic day of the year,
0:08:09 > 0:08:11he'll need help from some experts.
0:08:11 > 0:08:15Sadly, Daryl doesn't know any experts, but he does know
0:08:15 > 0:08:18best man number one, 26-year-old best friend Teague,
0:08:18 > 0:08:20who works in computers.
0:08:20 > 0:08:23That's not all. There's also best man number two.
0:08:23 > 0:08:27The one person every girl wants overseeing the most romantic day
0:08:27 > 0:08:29of her life - her little brother.
0:08:29 > 0:08:3122-year-old student, Connor.
0:08:31 > 0:08:34She was really apprehensive about me being involved
0:08:34 > 0:08:38because who would want their brother organising the wedding?
0:08:38 > 0:08:40How are you doing?
0:08:40 > 0:08:41'He enjoys winding me up.'
0:08:41 > 0:08:45I think that's going to make life hard.
0:08:45 > 0:08:46He's going to have fun with it.
0:08:46 > 0:08:49So DIY Daryl, the bride's little brother
0:08:49 > 0:08:53and a bloke from IT set to work planning a day of heartfelt romance.
0:08:53 > 0:08:56Look, I don't want anybody to ever forget this wedding.
0:08:56 > 0:08:59It's going to be super romantic.
0:08:59 > 0:09:04You know how romantic I am, this is changing now. This is changing now.
0:09:04 > 0:09:07Plan is, I want to be a knight in shining armour.
0:09:07 > 0:09:11White horse, hopefully going to go through a forest kind of place,
0:09:11 > 0:09:14and this is where we're going to have our reception, right?
0:09:14 > 0:09:17We're going to have to create this.
0:09:17 > 0:09:21What I want is not out there, what I really want is,
0:09:21 > 0:09:23kind of...tepees.
0:09:24 > 0:09:28Daryl wastes no time showing the best men his DIY tepee prototype,
0:09:28 > 0:09:32which, like the rest of the wedding, he's planning to build from scratch.
0:09:32 > 0:09:34I think it's class. I think it'll be lethal.
0:09:34 > 0:09:37If we can get it working well, I think it'll look deadly.
0:09:37 > 0:09:40But it's going to be an awful lot of work, for sure.
0:09:44 > 0:09:48- I am loving this, I really am. - I get to use my chainsaw!
0:09:49 > 0:09:52Unaware of Daryl's plans,
0:09:52 > 0:09:54Dr Clodagh takes a break from the hospital
0:09:54 > 0:09:59and heads to a spa for a spot of pampering with chief bridesmaid Amy.
0:10:02 > 0:10:05But it's not long before talk turns to weddings.
0:10:05 > 0:10:09- What would be your dream wedding, like?- Church wedding.- Mmm-hmm.
0:10:09 > 0:10:13And then off to, like, a manor house type place.
0:10:13 > 0:10:17What would be the worst thing
0:10:17 > 0:10:19he could possibly do?
0:10:19 > 0:10:23I would rather not be out in a marquee at this time of the year.
0:10:23 > 0:10:24It's too cold.
0:10:24 > 0:10:28I don't want it to be in the middle of a mucky field.
0:10:28 > 0:10:32At least she won't be in a marquee in a cold field!
0:10:32 > 0:10:34She'll be in a tepee in a cold field
0:10:34 > 0:10:37and Daryl's on the hunt for the very spot.
0:10:37 > 0:10:43And nothing says romance like the field at the back of the local community centre.
0:10:43 > 0:10:47There's lots of space. That's perfect for the tepees. Perfect.
0:10:47 > 0:10:49Put two big massive tepees there,
0:10:49 > 0:10:54have our fire going and have people in there messing around.
0:10:54 > 0:10:57Got our forest coming back here. I like the idea of the trail.
0:10:57 > 0:11:01Torches and lights and candles coming down here to the tepees..
0:11:01 > 0:11:04You can do something good here, aye. You would.
0:11:04 > 0:11:07It's the outside venue I've been looking for.
0:11:07 > 0:11:11All we need to do is just clean. That's it.
0:11:11 > 0:11:14So that's the field sorted, but what if it rains?
0:11:14 > 0:11:17Well, no problem, Daryl's got that covered too.
0:11:24 > 0:11:26We have it.
0:11:28 > 0:11:29Done.
0:11:29 > 0:11:31Done.
0:11:31 > 0:11:35The community centre doesn't just have a grubby old field,
0:11:35 > 0:11:38it's got a grubby old badminton court too.
0:11:38 > 0:11:41We can make this romantic, can't we?
0:11:41 > 0:11:45If we get drapes and we get a bit of star cloth...
0:11:45 > 0:11:48- Star cloth would be deadly here. - And we get...
0:11:48 > 0:11:51a kilometre of fairy lights.
0:11:51 > 0:11:53We have everything we want here.
0:11:53 > 0:11:56We have our space, outside we'll have our tepees...
0:11:56 > 0:12:00And if everybody gets bored, a game of badminton.
0:12:00 > 0:12:02We have just found exactly what we want.
0:12:02 > 0:12:05Perfect. But is it available?
0:12:05 > 0:12:10I was just out at the hall there and it's exactly what we're after.
0:12:10 > 0:12:13What do you normally charge for a night in there?
0:12:18 > 0:12:19Thank you very much.
0:12:19 > 0:12:21He says, "Well, it would be...
0:12:21 > 0:12:23"about...£10."
0:12:26 > 0:12:30- We're doing it. We have our venue. - Happy days.
0:12:30 > 0:12:34So the reception hall is booked for a tenner and it's worth every penny.
0:12:34 > 0:12:38Although it could take the remaining £11,990 to transform the space.
0:12:38 > 0:12:41Whoever said this would be tough? Nothing to it.
0:12:44 > 0:12:49Back at work, Clodagh catches up with her colleague Zara between shifts
0:12:49 > 0:12:50and it's beginning to dawn on her
0:12:50 > 0:12:55that she no longer has any input into her big day.
0:12:55 > 0:12:58- How are you feeling about it all? - I don't even know any more.
0:12:58 > 0:12:59I'm sure, at the end of the day,
0:12:59 > 0:13:03he's going to appreciate that this is your big day.
0:13:03 > 0:13:07I hope so. I'm nervous. I'm kind of like a swan. On the top, all graceful,
0:13:07 > 0:13:10but underneath the water the legs are going like that.
0:13:10 > 0:13:11I am nervous about it.
0:13:11 > 0:13:14Generally, would Daryl be romantic, though?
0:13:14 > 0:13:18Not even slightly, no.
0:13:18 > 0:13:20Oh. Oh, dear.
0:13:20 > 0:13:23He doesn't understand what romance is.
0:13:23 > 0:13:26He thinks romance is bringing me a cup of tea and it's just not.
0:13:26 > 0:13:29But there may be some hope.
0:13:29 > 0:13:33Despite Daryl's madcap ideas for the outdoor reception,
0:13:33 > 0:13:36he has more old-fashioned romantic plans for the ceremony.
0:13:36 > 0:13:40Next stop, his family church in County Wicklow.
0:13:42 > 0:13:46It's really important that she likes this.
0:13:46 > 0:13:51What we're thinking now with the reception and our mad ideas,
0:13:51 > 0:13:53that's... It's a bit risky.
0:13:53 > 0:13:57- Get this part right. - This has to be normal.- Yeah.
0:13:57 > 0:14:01How are you doing? Lovely to see you again.
0:14:01 > 0:14:03I would love to get married here.
0:14:04 > 0:14:08You know yourself, this is my church and, you know, it's kind of...
0:14:08 > 0:14:12- Baptised here. - Baptised here, the whole lot, yeah.
0:14:12 > 0:14:18She'll love it. She's never seen... She's never seen inside here, she's never seen...
0:14:18 > 0:14:22I'm getting nervous even just standing here.
0:14:22 > 0:14:24It's making it more real now, you know?
0:14:25 > 0:14:27I'm getting married in three weeks.
0:14:27 > 0:14:29It'll be brilliant.
0:14:29 > 0:14:31It's near the end of the first week.
0:14:31 > 0:14:34But the next two weeks can't pass quickly enough for Clodagh,
0:14:34 > 0:14:38who's missing her childhood sweetheart.
0:14:38 > 0:14:42It's been really hard, coming home to an empty house.
0:14:42 > 0:14:46It's just been horrible, not having him here to talk to.
0:14:48 > 0:14:49It's been horrible.
0:14:49 > 0:14:52Marrying Daryl is...
0:14:52 > 0:14:56the thing I've looked forward to the most for so long.
0:14:56 > 0:15:00It just means everything to be becoming his wife.
0:15:00 > 0:15:02I want everyone to know
0:15:02 > 0:15:07that it's just him and me and no-one's going to come between us.
0:15:07 > 0:15:11There's ten years of pressure to get this wedding right.
0:15:11 > 0:15:13So after booking the church for the ceremony
0:15:13 > 0:15:15and a field for the reception,
0:15:15 > 0:15:19Daryl's thoughts now turn to transporting the bride between the two.
0:15:19 > 0:15:23What's the plan for riding a horse? What do you want to do?
0:15:23 > 0:15:28I think it would look amazing, it would look really cool. Me on a white horse. Armour.
0:15:28 > 0:15:32There's so much else to be doing.
0:15:32 > 0:15:34The white horse is really important.
0:15:34 > 0:15:38The whole plan falls apart without the white horse.
0:15:38 > 0:15:41Come on. How more romantic can you get
0:15:41 > 0:15:44than a knight in shining armour picking you up on a white horse?
0:15:44 > 0:15:47She rode a white horse when she was younger
0:15:47 > 0:15:50and got thrown off at least twice.
0:15:50 > 0:15:52I think this is stupid.
0:15:52 > 0:15:56But even Clodagh's brother is unable to talk him out of this one.
0:15:56 > 0:15:59So they're off to find a trusty steed.
0:15:59 > 0:16:03- We're looking for a horse. - OK. The best one I think that's going to be most suitable -
0:16:03 > 0:16:06probably this big lad here, Harry.
0:16:06 > 0:16:08Harry. Harry looks huge.
0:16:13 > 0:16:15Shit, he's huge.
0:16:15 > 0:16:17Do you think this is a good idea still?
0:16:17 > 0:16:19'This could go horribly wrong.'
0:16:19 > 0:16:22This could easily go horribly wrong.
0:16:22 > 0:16:25Or just a little less wrong maybe?
0:16:25 > 0:16:29Remember, your left foot in the stirrup.
0:16:29 > 0:16:31Stand back.
0:16:33 > 0:16:36And...there. Master at it. OK?
0:16:36 > 0:16:38This is brilliant.
0:16:38 > 0:16:41This is brilliant.
0:16:41 > 0:16:44- Not bad for his first time in the saddle.- Oh...- Then again...
0:16:44 > 0:16:46Whoa, whoa.
0:16:46 > 0:16:49He looks a little bit nervous.
0:16:49 > 0:16:51Hold on, darling.
0:16:53 > 0:16:57This is romantic now. A white horse. My bride behind me.
0:16:57 > 0:17:03You know, walking up the... Oh, yes, this will be nice touch, I think she'd like that.
0:17:03 > 0:17:04Connor couldn't make Daryl see sense
0:17:04 > 0:17:09and he's gone and booked Harry the horse to take his fair maiden to the reception.
0:17:09 > 0:17:12Now for his shining armour.
0:17:12 > 0:17:15This is the armour we're talking about. What do you think?
0:17:15 > 0:17:20- THEY LAUGH Yes, that kind of says it all. - This is cool.
0:17:25 > 0:17:28Wedding suits!
0:17:28 > 0:17:31Down the aisle.
0:17:31 > 0:17:33ALL WHOOP
0:17:35 > 0:17:36We've got to do this.
0:17:36 > 0:17:40- THEY LAUGH - This is definitely...
0:17:40 > 0:17:42You think she'll think it's romantic?
0:17:42 > 0:17:45A knight in shining armour? No-brainer.
0:17:45 > 0:17:48Daryl plans to leave his bride straight after the ceremony
0:17:48 > 0:17:51to get dressed up in this armour.
0:17:51 > 0:17:55But will his brand-new wife see him as a hopeless romantic, or just plain hopeless?
0:17:55 > 0:17:59Clodagh comes round the corner, this great big white horse,
0:17:59 > 0:18:03knight in shining armour - that's going to be epic.
0:18:03 > 0:18:07Daryl spends over a grand on armour and a horse
0:18:07 > 0:18:11and just £10 on his reception venue, which he still needs to make over.
0:18:13 > 0:18:17It's the beginning of the second week and Clodagh's driven down south
0:18:17 > 0:18:21to say goodbye to the dress she won't be wearing on her big day.
0:18:21 > 0:18:25This is my wedding dress and these are my bridesmaid dresses.
0:18:25 > 0:18:29I bought them after we got engaged. Just went out
0:18:29 > 0:18:32for a girly shopping day with one of my bridesmaids,
0:18:32 > 0:18:37we saw the dresses and ended up looking for wedding dresses as well.
0:18:37 > 0:18:39And I bought them.
0:18:39 > 0:18:43But unfortunately for Clodagh, Daryl wants to pick out a dress
0:18:43 > 0:18:46which will fit in with HIS romantic plans for the wedding.
0:18:46 > 0:18:50Today is D-Day, dress shopping day. This has to be got right.
0:18:50 > 0:18:52This wedding is about one person, and one person only.
0:18:52 > 0:18:56We've completely different styles, different taste in clothes.
0:18:56 > 0:18:58I mean, like, I like...
0:18:59 > 0:19:01This is what I like.
0:19:01 > 0:19:05And now I'm going in to buy Clodagh a dress.
0:19:05 > 0:19:07This will be interesting.
0:19:07 > 0:19:12'I think Daryl's biggest problem is going to be buying the dress.'
0:19:12 > 0:19:14I think he's going to have a very difficult job trying to get
0:19:14 > 0:19:17something to match up to what I've already got.
0:19:17 > 0:19:22I'm a bit terrified now, kind of. I'm well out of my comfort zone.
0:19:22 > 0:19:25The best thing, have a look through the dresses,
0:19:25 > 0:19:29- pick a few wee styles out. Away you go and have a plunder through there.- Thank you.
0:19:29 > 0:19:35# I just don't know what to do with myself... #
0:19:35 > 0:19:38They all look the same.
0:19:39 > 0:19:41Where do you start?
0:19:41 > 0:19:45# I don't know what to do with myself... #
0:19:45 > 0:19:47- No.- No.
0:19:48 > 0:19:49- No.- No.
0:19:51 > 0:19:52- No.- No.
0:19:52 > 0:19:56# I just don't know what to do... #
0:19:56 > 0:20:00- It's a bit harder than picking out a pair of jeans.- It is.
0:20:00 > 0:20:02It's a very hard decision.
0:20:02 > 0:20:05I can't have her upset about this. I just can't.
0:20:05 > 0:20:07It's not...it's not happening.
0:20:11 > 0:20:13This is a disaster.
0:20:13 > 0:20:15It makes or breaks the whole thing, this does.
0:20:15 > 0:20:18This is very stressful.
0:20:18 > 0:20:20This is very stressful. She has her dress.
0:20:20 > 0:20:23It's the dress of her dreams.
0:20:23 > 0:20:26She wants the dress, there's no other dress out there.
0:20:26 > 0:20:29And now I'm picking a dress that she has to wear.
0:20:29 > 0:20:33No-one knows how much her dress means to her more than Clodagh's mum,
0:20:33 > 0:20:36bridesmaid Amy and bridesmaid Louise,
0:20:36 > 0:20:40who helped her choose it when they were studying together in England.
0:20:40 > 0:20:45We'd been in hundreds of shops, every single wedding dress shop in Exeter.
0:20:45 > 0:20:48As soon as I put it on, it was like, "This is the dress."
0:20:48 > 0:20:49Yes, you could tell in your face.
0:20:49 > 0:20:54You were smiling ear to ear. You could tell you were really happy in that dress.
0:20:54 > 0:20:59Yeah, you could tell it was the dress for you. The fit was perfect.
0:20:59 > 0:21:00No, it's not...
0:21:00 > 0:21:04Not only must Daryl choose something to replace her perfect dress,
0:21:04 > 0:21:05he needs to consider how it will fit
0:21:05 > 0:21:09when she's singing her leg over Harry the horse.
0:21:09 > 0:21:14Because of the horse, we need certain things from a dress.
0:21:14 > 0:21:19We need quite a bit of material to allow for play and to cover the horse.
0:21:19 > 0:21:23It's all very well and good Clodagh liking her dress,
0:21:23 > 0:21:27but the horse has got to like it as well, you know?
0:21:35 > 0:21:38- Jesus, lads.- That is nice.
0:21:38 > 0:21:40That's gorgeous.
0:21:40 > 0:21:43Do you think you'd be able to throw your leg over a horse in that?
0:21:43 > 0:21:47Yes, it feels like there's plenty of room in it and it's a nice train,
0:21:47 > 0:21:50so it will be nice at the back, nice at the back of the horse.
0:21:50 > 0:21:53The horse will look beautiful, she'll look beautiful.
0:21:53 > 0:21:55It should work.
0:21:56 > 0:21:58That's a two-to-one favourite.
0:21:58 > 0:22:02- But let's look at the dress bringing up the rear.- Shit, that's gorgeous.
0:22:02 > 0:22:06Oh, look at that.
0:22:06 > 0:22:08Would you look at that, lads?
0:22:08 > 0:22:11The back of that is perfect.
0:22:11 > 0:22:15Ashley, how would that be, like, getting up onto a horse?
0:22:15 > 0:22:18I'd say this one would probably be the easiest one
0:22:18 > 0:22:22to get on the horse, because there's a massive amount
0:22:22 > 0:22:26of room at the front and the biggest train at the back.
0:22:26 > 0:22:30Imagine that, that would go down over the back of the horse and cover it.
0:22:30 > 0:22:32That would be amazing.
0:22:32 > 0:22:36I'm thinking, where can we get a horse real quick?
0:22:36 > 0:22:40Jesus. Right, OK.
0:22:40 > 0:22:44- THEY LAUGH - Try and keep your eyes shut!
0:22:44 > 0:22:47- He can't see. Back a bit, back a wee bit.- Back.
0:22:47 > 0:22:50Hey, that's not bad, lads. That will be like that.
0:22:50 > 0:22:55You'll have your tea and be holding on to the... Look at that! Lads!
0:22:55 > 0:22:58- Can you imagine yourself on a white horse, Ashley?- Yes.
0:22:58 > 0:23:02That... That's ordered.
0:23:02 > 0:23:05Guys, I've got to get up, my legs are starting to cramp.
0:23:05 > 0:23:07But while the boys are horsing around,
0:23:07 > 0:23:11Clodagh's struggling to let go of her perfect dress.
0:23:11 > 0:23:14The one she's dreamt of wearing at her traditional wedding.
0:23:14 > 0:23:17That is just so elegant.
0:23:17 > 0:23:19You look stunning. Absolutely stunning.
0:23:21 > 0:23:22Oh, this is perfect for you.
0:23:22 > 0:23:26- It's beautiful. - I love the detail on this.
0:23:26 > 0:23:30I love the train. I really like the nice back and...
0:23:30 > 0:23:32I feel very weepy, looking at you.
0:23:36 > 0:23:38And now it won't be mine.
0:23:38 > 0:23:39SHE LAUGHS
0:23:46 > 0:23:50It's magnificent. Really magnificent.
0:23:50 > 0:23:54I hope he doesn't, you know, ruin the whole show.
0:23:57 > 0:23:59Oh, dear.
0:23:59 > 0:24:01When I got this I was like, yes,
0:24:01 > 0:24:04that's what I'm going to get married wearing.
0:24:07 > 0:24:10And I'm not now.
0:24:14 > 0:24:17I'm...devastated that I can't wear it.
0:24:22 > 0:24:24You needn't be devastated.
0:24:24 > 0:24:29Without ever seeing her dream dress, Daryl's managed to choose a near-perfect replica.
0:24:29 > 0:24:34Ivory coloured with detailing on the bodice and a long, flowing train.
0:24:34 > 0:24:38- How could he possibly mess this up? - All right, lads.
0:24:38 > 0:24:42- I have a final push here that I would like...- To try.- To try.
0:24:42 > 0:24:45Oh, dear. That's how.
0:24:45 > 0:24:47- Hit it, boys.- OK.
0:24:47 > 0:24:50- Whoa! - LAUGHS
0:24:50 > 0:24:52Oh, my word!
0:24:52 > 0:24:55I think that, that would just set it off.
0:24:55 > 0:24:58Imagine that and the horse as well. That would be cool.
0:24:58 > 0:25:00I really like that.
0:25:00 > 0:25:02DIY Daryl strikes again
0:25:02 > 0:25:06and can't resist putting his home-made touches on everything.
0:25:06 > 0:25:09- What do you think, Ashley? - Um...
0:25:09 > 0:25:11it's different.
0:25:11 > 0:25:14You imagine this on the horse, on the white horse
0:25:14 > 0:25:17the white horse being led up through the forest with candles and lights
0:25:17 > 0:25:20and you've lights coming around your dress.
0:25:20 > 0:25:22- Would that not be nice? - The idea's growing on me.
0:25:22 > 0:25:27- It's quite romantic, it's lovely. - But I think maybe for only that bit.
0:25:27 > 0:25:30Is this what you want? Are you excited by this and the dress?
0:25:30 > 0:25:32I'm very excited about this.
0:25:32 > 0:25:34Oh...
0:25:34 > 0:25:38I don't know, she doesn't like tack at all.
0:25:38 > 0:25:42And I don't know if lights in her beautiful wedding dress
0:25:42 > 0:25:44is really going to be what she'll want,
0:25:44 > 0:25:48but we'll see, we'll see. We'll definitely see her anyway.
0:25:48 > 0:25:51There's LED lights going in Clodagh's dress.
0:25:51 > 0:25:55We're doing it. It's done.
0:25:55 > 0:25:57This is going to be epic.
0:25:57 > 0:26:00The lights are going to add so much to this.
0:26:00 > 0:26:03I come down, knight in shining armour, dismount the horse,
0:26:03 > 0:26:07get her up on it, turn on the lights, it should be magical.
0:26:07 > 0:26:10- It WILL be magical.- Magical.
0:26:10 > 0:26:16Seven hours and £850 later, Daryl's dress nightmare is finally over.
0:26:16 > 0:26:20But thanks to his handiwork, and despite Connor's reservations,
0:26:20 > 0:26:23Clodagh's nightmare could just be beginning.
0:26:26 > 0:26:29With the dress in the bag, Daryl and Connor revisit the place
0:26:29 > 0:26:34they've chosen for the reception. But it's not as sunny as last time.
0:26:34 > 0:26:37If it's like this and she's coming up here, I don't know what to do.
0:26:37 > 0:26:40After the ceremony, Daryl plans to change into his armour,
0:26:40 > 0:26:44meet his wife with a horse at the top of this hill
0:26:44 > 0:26:46and lead her down a muddy path to his tepee reception.
0:26:46 > 0:26:49If the weather is like this, oh, my God.
0:26:49 > 0:26:54He still has almost 10 grand to create the reception venue from scratch,
0:26:54 > 0:26:57but all the money in the world can't control the elements.
0:26:57 > 0:27:00A complete and utter disaster.
0:27:00 > 0:27:01Can you imagine?
0:27:01 > 0:27:04- Pristine white dress.- Ivory.
0:27:04 > 0:27:06Ivory dress.
0:27:08 > 0:27:11- And rain.- And a horse.
0:27:11 > 0:27:13And gale-force winds.
0:27:13 > 0:27:16Muck up to her ears. If the weather gets this bad...
0:27:16 > 0:27:19We're in trouble.
0:27:19 > 0:27:22I don't think it can happen. I don't think it can happen.
0:27:22 > 0:27:25And the wind...
0:27:25 > 0:27:27LOUD GUST
0:27:27 > 0:27:30- That's actually sore on my face.- That's cold.
0:27:30 > 0:27:33Despite their doubts, the two men who know Clodagh
0:27:33 > 0:27:37best in the world press on with their do-it-yourself plans.
0:27:37 > 0:27:41GAELIC SINGING AND HARP MUSIC
0:27:50 > 0:27:54With the wedding fast approaching and a world away from muddy fields,
0:27:54 > 0:27:59Clodagh and her mum are getting worried about what Daryl's organised.
0:27:59 > 0:28:03Do you think he has the venue sorted? I hope he has at this stage.
0:28:03 > 0:28:04Where do you think he has, though?
0:28:04 > 0:28:07I don't think he'll go for a hotel.
0:28:07 > 0:28:09I'd be very surprised if it was in a hotel.
0:28:09 > 0:28:11You might be very disappointed if it's not.
0:28:11 > 0:28:16So we might have a marquee outside the back door!
0:28:16 > 0:28:18I don't know. I don't know, Mum.
0:28:18 > 0:28:24Are you serious? In this weather? Lunacy. Total lunacy.
0:28:24 > 0:28:29I don't think he'd be silly enough to do a thing like that, Clodagh.
0:28:29 > 0:28:33Japers! It would be horrendous. Absolutely.
0:28:33 > 0:28:35Don't get too worked up about it.
0:28:35 > 0:28:38I'm sure he has done everything properly.
0:28:38 > 0:28:41- How about a cup of tea? Would you like that?- Yes.
0:28:41 > 0:28:45She'll need something stronger than a brew when this traditional girl
0:28:45 > 0:28:48finds out about her husband-to-be's hare-brained ideas.
0:28:49 > 0:28:52With just over a week to go, DIY Daryl realises that there's
0:28:52 > 0:28:57some stuff he has to buy off the peg, like the bridesmaid dresses.
0:28:57 > 0:29:00Oh, Jaysus! Wrong direction.
0:29:00 > 0:29:03No easy task for a man more accustomed to chopping wood
0:29:03 > 0:29:04than haute couture.
0:29:04 > 0:29:06And it's a sure-fail mission
0:29:06 > 0:29:11when Clodagh's already bought her three perfect emerald green dresses.
0:29:11 > 0:29:15I'm completely abandoned here. I have no idea what I'm looking at.
0:29:15 > 0:29:17Clueless.
0:29:17 > 0:29:20That's what a fascinator is!
0:29:20 > 0:29:22It's a...hat, kind of.
0:29:22 > 0:29:24This one's nice. Lovely colour.
0:29:24 > 0:29:27Yeah, you'll see them coming through the forest in that.
0:29:27 > 0:29:29I think they'll love that.
0:29:32 > 0:29:34Yeah, I like that.
0:29:34 > 0:29:37He now needs to win over the three bridesmaids - his sister Cheryl
0:29:37 > 0:29:41and Clodagh's best friends Amy and Louise - with his bold choices.
0:29:41 > 0:29:44That's number one. That's the favourite. That's going on first.
0:29:46 > 0:29:48It's really not my colour.
0:29:48 > 0:29:50- It will be lovely.- Sweet mother!
0:29:50 > 0:29:55These are not designed for ladies with larger bosoms.
0:29:58 > 0:30:00We're not wearing these dresses.
0:30:00 > 0:30:02Do you really not like it?
0:30:02 > 0:30:04No, it's just awful.
0:30:04 > 0:30:06Can I get out of it now?
0:30:12 > 0:30:14Honestly, they're gorgeous.
0:30:14 > 0:30:16The problem is they don't really fit.
0:30:16 > 0:30:18We're not doing it to be awkward.
0:30:21 > 0:30:24Honest opinion, what do you think?
0:30:24 > 0:30:26- I like this one. - I prefer the last one.
0:30:26 > 0:30:29I might have you all in different dresses if this goes on.
0:30:29 > 0:30:31Seriously, I might have you in different dresses.
0:30:31 > 0:30:33Hurry up. Jesus!
0:30:36 > 0:30:38This is the one.
0:30:38 > 0:30:42Everyone? Yes? Oh, thank you!
0:30:42 > 0:30:44We have a dress!
0:30:44 > 0:30:46We got a dress!
0:30:46 > 0:30:49- You like it? - Yes, I think you look stunning.
0:30:49 > 0:30:52Darryl may think the bridesmaids look a vision in purple,
0:30:52 > 0:30:55but they don't look like the dresses Clodagh chose.
0:30:55 > 0:30:58On the upside, there are no fairy lights in them.
0:30:59 > 0:31:01With a DIY reception venue still to build,
0:31:01 > 0:31:04Daryl's slowly working his way through the budget.
0:31:04 > 0:31:07But Clodagh and her mum have other concerns.
0:31:07 > 0:31:11- Have you had your invitation yet? - No.- No?- No. I'm quite annoyed about that.
0:31:11 > 0:31:15- Be honest, have you even had a text? - I haven't.- Has Dad?
0:31:15 > 0:31:19I was just about to say, I don't know if Dad has, but I haven't.
0:31:19 > 0:31:23- Do you think he has even thought to do the invites?- I sincerely hope so.
0:31:23 > 0:31:25Sincerely hope so.
0:31:25 > 0:31:28- But you look very doubtful. - Well, it's getting very late.
0:31:28 > 0:31:32I know, it's ridiculous. It's ludicrous, totally ludicrous.
0:31:36 > 0:31:39Having had no contact for over a fortnight, Daryl sends word
0:31:39 > 0:31:42for Clodagh and her partners in wine to glam up for her hen do.
0:31:42 > 0:31:45But she's unable to relax,
0:31:45 > 0:31:48as she still hasn't been invited to her own wedding.
0:31:48 > 0:31:50I'm really nervous about what he's doing
0:31:50 > 0:31:53and what he's going to put me wearing.
0:31:54 > 0:31:55You'll be fine.
0:32:00 > 0:32:03- Where do you reckon it's going to be?- I don't know.
0:32:04 > 0:32:08- Daryl's arranged a special delivery. - Is it the dog?
0:32:08 > 0:32:10It's a puppy.
0:32:11 > 0:32:13You can't leave it there!
0:32:18 > 0:32:20BANG, THEY SCREAM
0:32:20 > 0:32:22I knew it was Conner!
0:32:22 > 0:32:24Clodagh's little brother in a box.
0:32:24 > 0:32:26Which he probably made himself.
0:32:27 > 0:32:30I am Cupid!
0:32:30 > 0:32:34I have a message for the princess.
0:32:34 > 0:32:38The wedding will be the wedding of the century.
0:32:38 > 0:32:41It will take place in the South of Ireland.
0:32:41 > 0:32:45He may have been unromantic for the last ten years,
0:32:45 > 0:32:51but for this special day, romance will be taken to a whole new level.
0:32:54 > 0:32:58I'm getting married on Saturday, down south. Yeah!
0:33:01 > 0:33:04The rest, I'm still as unwise as ever.
0:33:06 > 0:33:09A big heart and a Cupid, and dressing Conner up as Cupid
0:33:09 > 0:33:11does make me a little anxious.
0:33:13 > 0:33:16I hope it's not a sign of things to come.
0:33:16 > 0:33:20At least I'm getting married now. I know I'm getting married.
0:33:20 > 0:33:24I'd like to make a toast to Clodagh and Daryl on their special day
0:33:24 > 0:33:26and may it be beautiful.
0:33:26 > 0:33:29ALL: Clodagh and Daryl.
0:33:29 > 0:33:32Lads, no more wedding talk, we're out to enjoy ourselves.
0:33:32 > 0:33:35Last night or so.
0:33:35 > 0:33:37After all his hard work,
0:33:37 > 0:33:40Daryl is determined to take a bow from single life,
0:33:40 > 0:33:45not so much with a bang, but with a quiet pint and a jamming session.
0:33:45 > 0:33:47Diddley, diddley, dee!
0:33:47 > 0:33:51Ahh, come on! Go again, go again!
0:33:54 > 0:33:56With only a few days until the wedding,
0:33:56 > 0:33:59Daryl still has nearly £10,000 left in the budget.
0:33:59 > 0:34:01He might not be spending much,
0:34:01 > 0:34:04but he is motoring through his preparations.
0:34:04 > 0:34:06Buying flowers from the local market...
0:34:06 > 0:34:09The colour scheme's gone out of the window.
0:34:09 > 0:34:11No, we're going like red
0:34:11 > 0:34:13and purple and yellow, lemon, white and green.
0:34:13 > 0:34:15..making his own cake stands...
0:34:15 > 0:34:18I reckon could go into a business making cake stands.
0:34:18 > 0:34:21..picking up cash-and-carry booze...
0:34:21 > 0:34:23God, that's heavy.
0:34:23 > 0:34:27..and booking Clodagh's transport to the church - a giant truck.
0:34:27 > 0:34:31Another over-the-top statement from clueless Daryl.
0:34:31 > 0:34:33Michael, I'm looking to see,
0:34:33 > 0:34:36would you have a big truck available for Saturday?
0:34:36 > 0:34:38Ohh!
0:34:42 > 0:34:45It has been a long three weeks for Daryl,
0:34:45 > 0:34:49and the importance of what he's undertaken is starting to sink in.
0:34:49 > 0:34:51I can't explain how much I love Clodagh.
0:34:51 > 0:34:55I didn't realise how much I loved Clodagh until I started this.
0:34:55 > 0:34:57When you want something to be just so special for somebody.
0:35:01 > 0:35:03I miss her a lot now.
0:35:03 > 0:35:08There is a lot of just times you want to turn around and she's there.
0:35:08 > 0:35:12It's a bit shit when you turn around and she's not there.
0:35:12 > 0:35:15I really, really, really want it to be something she'll love.
0:35:15 > 0:35:18The whole, entire day is about her.
0:35:18 > 0:35:21That's...just the last three weeks has been about her.
0:35:21 > 0:35:23It's as simple as that.
0:35:24 > 0:35:27I want her to have the day of her dreams.
0:35:27 > 0:35:29She deserves it. Simple as that.
0:35:31 > 0:35:35So far, Daryl's insisted on making everything himself.
0:35:35 > 0:35:37- How you doing, Brian?- Hey, Daryl.
0:35:37 > 0:35:40But for the one-time most unromantic man in Ireland,
0:35:40 > 0:35:43his next DIY job is his most important yet.
0:35:43 > 0:35:45Will we get our rings made out of these?
0:35:45 > 0:35:48You'll get the big one out of that, and the small one out of that.
0:35:48 > 0:35:51They don't look like much at the minute but, hopefully,
0:35:51 > 0:35:55that's my future wedding ring, Clodagh's future wedding ring.
0:35:55 > 0:35:58Any fool can walk into a shop, pay some money and buy a ring
0:35:58 > 0:35:59and Bob's your uncle.
0:36:00 > 0:36:03But hopefully a bit of beginner's luck on our side now.
0:36:20 > 0:36:25The rings are taking all day, but it's a day so well spent.
0:36:25 > 0:36:28What I do is making things.
0:36:28 > 0:36:31For Clodagh to be wearing something for the rest of her life
0:36:31 > 0:36:34that I have made and put the work into.
0:36:34 > 0:36:37That's... That's special.
0:36:50 > 0:36:53Yeah, a lot of hard work gone into them, but I'm delighted.
0:36:53 > 0:36:56I hope she'll love them too. A good day.
0:37:04 > 0:37:06It's the day before the wedding
0:37:06 > 0:37:10and the moment that Clodagh has been dreading.
0:37:12 > 0:37:16She's about to see her new wedding dress for the first time.
0:37:16 > 0:37:20- It's the bridal shop on the corner. - That looks lovely.
0:37:20 > 0:37:23I hope it's that one in the window. It's very nice.
0:37:23 > 0:37:28- I hope it's not. It's horrible. - What do they say about the book? Never judge it by the cover.
0:37:28 > 0:37:30Don't judge the window. I'm sure there are more inside.
0:37:30 > 0:37:34They've had lots of them in the window and I've never seen anything I liked.
0:37:35 > 0:37:38Clodagh already owns her dream dress,
0:37:38 > 0:37:42but Daryl wants to see her in a design of his choosing,
0:37:42 > 0:37:46which happens to be glow in the dark with enough room to fit a horse.
0:37:46 > 0:37:51- How's it going, Clodagh?- I'm really nervous. I'm going to throw up.
0:37:51 > 0:37:54- Give me a second. - Are you serious?
0:37:56 > 0:38:01- You OK?- My belly hurts. - Clodagh, I want you not to worry.
0:38:01 > 0:38:03I'm sure he has done the very best for you.
0:38:03 > 0:38:07He was here for about six and a half, seven hours.
0:38:07 > 0:38:09Didn't take me that long!
0:38:15 > 0:38:17Smile, Clodagh, and enjoy.
0:38:17 > 0:38:20The time has come for Clodagh to come face to face
0:38:20 > 0:38:22with her new wedding dress.
0:38:35 > 0:38:37You know how I wouldn't have picked my dress?
0:38:37 > 0:38:40Yeah.
0:38:40 > 0:38:41Clearly, Daryl would have.
0:38:43 > 0:38:44The man hasn't done too bad.
0:38:44 > 0:38:46Seven and a half hours were worth it.
0:38:55 > 0:38:57It's a hit.
0:38:57 > 0:38:59The ivory gown with long flowing train
0:38:59 > 0:39:04and detailed bodice is almost identical to Clodagh's dream dress.
0:39:04 > 0:39:08- That is magnificent. Beautiful. - I can't believe he picked a dress so similar to mine
0:39:08 > 0:39:10when he hasn't seen it.
0:39:10 > 0:39:13- It's uncanny. - He's done a perfect job.
0:39:13 > 0:39:17- I think you should be quite impressed by his work. - I'm stunned, totally shocked.
0:39:17 > 0:39:19It's not often he makes me speechless.
0:39:19 > 0:39:22The boy done good. The boy done good.
0:39:24 > 0:39:27But this dress has more to it than meets the eye.
0:39:28 > 0:39:33I'll need everyone to close their eyes and no peeping whatsoever.
0:39:34 > 0:39:36And I mean absolutely no peeping.
0:39:36 > 0:39:40Will his surprise addition of fairy lights be a bright idea too many?
0:39:40 > 0:39:43OK, ladies. One, two, three - open!
0:39:47 > 0:39:49And look over your shoulder.
0:39:49 > 0:39:51It's got lights in it.
0:39:52 > 0:39:53Oh, dear.
0:39:56 > 0:39:57He's joking.
0:40:01 > 0:40:03- Ridiculous. - It is, isn't it?
0:40:04 > 0:40:07- It's hideous. - I absolutely hate the lights.
0:40:07 > 0:40:11He did so well with the dress and now he's absolutely destroyed it.
0:40:11 > 0:40:12He's ruined a beautiful dress.
0:40:12 > 0:40:17I'm disappointed. I think that lowers the whole tone of the dress.
0:40:17 > 0:40:21It's pathetic. Absolutely. I'm very disappointed.
0:40:21 > 0:40:23I wonder how seriously he's taking the wedding now,
0:40:23 > 0:40:27- if he does that to your dress. - This is what I was worried about with him and the wedding,
0:40:27 > 0:40:30that he does a really good job and then puts tack in.
0:40:34 > 0:40:36That's what he's done here,
0:40:36 > 0:40:40- so why would he not do it with the rest of the day?- That's just stupid.
0:40:41 > 0:40:44And I feel like a fool.
0:40:46 > 0:40:49And it's making me not like any of the dress now.
0:40:51 > 0:40:52I feel like a clown.
0:40:59 > 0:41:04200 miles south, and oblivious to problem with the dress,
0:41:04 > 0:41:06Daryl has problems of his own.
0:41:06 > 0:41:10I'm putting pressure on it. You're all right. It's OK.
0:41:14 > 0:41:15In less than 24 hours,
0:41:15 > 0:41:21this washed-out, windswept field must be fit for a wedding.
0:41:21 > 0:41:23But Daryl remains optimistic.
0:41:23 > 0:41:26How romantic is this, eh?
0:41:26 > 0:41:27Back at the dress shop,
0:41:27 > 0:41:31Daryl's fairy light surprise has been a disaster.
0:41:31 > 0:41:36I don't think he could have done a better job with the dress - it's so much like your other one.
0:41:36 > 0:41:39It looks gorgeous on you. It really suits you.
0:41:39 > 0:41:43And Clodagh's bridesmaids are doing their best to salvage the situation.
0:41:43 > 0:41:47When you got your invitation, he called you his princess.
0:41:47 > 0:41:50And you really do look like a princess in that dress.
0:41:50 > 0:41:54So you can't let a minor thing ruin how good you'll look tomorrow.
0:42:09 > 0:42:12Completely unaware of the drama his lights have created,
0:42:12 > 0:42:16and with only 24 hours until the wedding,
0:42:16 > 0:42:17Daryl has a lot of work to do.
0:42:17 > 0:42:20There is a million things that could go wrong tomorrow.
0:42:23 > 0:42:25If they go right, it's going to be
0:42:25 > 0:42:30probably the most romantic thing she has ever seen in her life.
0:42:30 > 0:42:34It will definitely be the most romantic thing I've ever done.
0:42:34 > 0:42:37If it goes wrong,
0:42:37 > 0:42:38I can see a divorce coming.
0:42:40 > 0:42:42Daryl has put his heart and soul into the wedding.
0:42:42 > 0:42:45But after the fairy lights fiasco,
0:42:45 > 0:42:48Clodagh's mood is downbeat before the big day.
0:42:48 > 0:42:51I'm looking forward to getting married, but...
0:42:51 > 0:42:53having seen the dress with the lights in,
0:42:53 > 0:42:55I'm worried about what he's going to do.
0:42:55 > 0:42:58Those lights are over the top and all I can think of is how far he's gone
0:42:58 > 0:43:02and how he does not seem to be taking this seriously at all.
0:43:04 > 0:43:06He's making a joke out of me.
0:43:13 > 0:43:14It's the morning of the wedding,
0:43:14 > 0:43:19and Darryl has stuck lucky with the perfect weather.
0:43:19 > 0:43:21But at Clodagh's mum's house,
0:43:21 > 0:43:25the atmosphere is anything but bright.
0:43:25 > 0:43:29I'm just worried that, with the dress and all, what else has he done?
0:43:29 > 0:43:32How much over the top has he gone?
0:43:32 > 0:43:37- How far has he let his imagination run wild?- Pretty far.
0:43:37 > 0:43:40Pretty far, yeah. It's stressing me out.
0:43:43 > 0:43:48We're concerned that there will be an extra portion of tack thrown in,
0:43:48 > 0:43:56because the lights have switched the lights on in our heads,
0:43:56 > 0:44:00driving us towards this tacky event and I hope it's not.
0:44:00 > 0:44:05Across town, Daryl's hoping to look dapper for the ceremony in full morning suit.
0:44:05 > 0:44:09- Is that the right way around?- Nope. Clasp goes behind. So there we go.
0:44:09 > 0:44:11I've been dreading this for ages.
0:44:11 > 0:44:15Things are starting to look up now. Everything's ready to go.
0:44:15 > 0:44:17Get out the door, get married, job done.
0:44:17 > 0:44:18But with the pressure on,
0:44:18 > 0:44:20he has to keep an eye on all the little details.
0:44:20 > 0:44:27- Let's go, Daryl. Your final journey as a single man.- Whoa, whoa, whoa. Top hat. Oh.- I got it.
0:44:27 > 0:44:29I forgot the most important part of it!
0:44:32 > 0:44:34- Let's go.- Yeah.
0:44:34 > 0:44:39And he's saving his glitzy suit of armour until after the ceremony.
0:44:41 > 0:44:43After the debacle of the wedding dress,
0:44:43 > 0:44:48will his choice of bridesmaids' dresses fare any better with Clodagh?
0:44:48 > 0:44:53Wow. You all look beautiful. It's purple.
0:44:53 > 0:44:57Almost as nice as the green one. No, you look lovely.
0:44:57 > 0:45:01He got the colour wrong, but at least they don't have any hidden surprises.
0:45:04 > 0:45:11Ooh, congratulations! Clodagh, it's beautiful! You're beautiful.
0:45:11 > 0:45:13Clodagh has decided to put Daryl's dress on,
0:45:13 > 0:45:16but the fairy lights are definitely staying off.
0:45:16 > 0:45:19Still a bit dubious about his special present,
0:45:19 > 0:45:20but we'll see how it goes later.
0:45:20 > 0:45:25And any hope for Clodagh that this could still be a traditional wedding...
0:45:27 > 0:45:32..is destroyed with the arrival of her 12-tonne wedding truck.
0:45:32 > 0:45:33THEY LAUGH
0:45:36 > 0:45:37Clodagh!
0:45:41 > 0:45:42Oh, dear.
0:45:42 > 0:45:45He's only got that cos he wants to go in it after!
0:45:48 > 0:45:52Clodagh may be putting on a brave face, but a truck and a giant cowboy
0:45:52 > 0:45:56are a million miles away from her sophisticated dream wedding.
0:45:57 > 0:46:00And everybody in Wicklow Town knows this bride is on her way.
0:46:00 > 0:46:03HONKS HORN
0:46:06 > 0:46:08Oh, dear.
0:46:08 > 0:46:13Daryl's over-the-top transport might not be what Clodagh wanted,
0:46:13 > 0:46:15but it looks like she's going through with it anyway.
0:46:26 > 0:46:30Not the most graceful entrance, but she has finally arrived.
0:46:32 > 0:46:33Teamwork!
0:46:33 > 0:46:36She might've given up on her perfect wedding day,
0:46:36 > 0:46:40but after ten years, it's finally time to tie the knot with her childhood sweetheart,
0:46:40 > 0:46:43and what could be more romantic than that?
0:46:43 > 0:46:46I'm delighted that it's here. I'm very happy.
0:46:46 > 0:46:49I'm looking forward to seeing him.
0:46:49 > 0:46:53Especially as her brother serenades her down the aisle.
0:46:55 > 0:46:58# Is it the look in your eyes
0:46:58 > 0:46:59# Or is it this dancing juice?
0:47:01 > 0:47:02# Who cares, baby?
0:47:02 > 0:47:05# I think I want to marry you
0:47:08 > 0:47:10# I know a little chapel on the boulevard
0:47:10 > 0:47:13# We can go
0:47:13 > 0:47:16# No-one will know
0:47:16 > 0:47:20# Come on, girl. #
0:47:23 > 0:47:26- (Love you.)- (Love you.)
0:47:28 > 0:47:32And they exchange Daryl's hand-made rings.
0:47:32 > 0:47:36- I, Daryl, take you, Clodagh, to be my wife.- To have and to hold.
0:47:36 > 0:47:42- From this day forward.- For better, for worse.- For richer, for poorer.
0:47:42 > 0:47:47- In sickness and in health.- Till death us do part.- This is my solemn vow.
0:47:49 > 0:47:51This is my solemn vow.
0:47:53 > 0:47:56Daryl and Clodagh have given their consent
0:47:56 > 0:48:00and made their marriage vows to each other.
0:48:00 > 0:48:04I pronounce that they are husband and wife. You may kiss the bride.
0:48:04 > 0:48:06APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
0:48:13 > 0:48:16They may have different ideas of romance,
0:48:16 > 0:48:19but in the end, nothing can get in the way of true love.
0:48:19 > 0:48:25- This is totally worth the ten years' wait. Ten years.- I know!
0:48:25 > 0:48:26- We got there.- We did.
0:48:29 > 0:48:33Clodagh's dress looked absolutely amazing.
0:48:33 > 0:48:37The venue was beautiful. Absolutely spectacular. Beautiful. I have to take everything back.
0:48:37 > 0:48:40He's done a superb job.
0:48:40 > 0:48:42With the ceremony over,
0:48:42 > 0:48:47what's the next romantic surprise Daryl has planned for his new wife?
0:48:47 > 0:48:50He's going to leave her, blindfolded and alone,
0:48:50 > 0:48:52with no idea where she's going.
0:48:53 > 0:48:57You're not leaving me again. You've been gone for three weeks.
0:48:57 > 0:48:59Oh, no.
0:48:59 > 0:49:01- It'll ruin my make-up!- Come on.
0:49:02 > 0:49:04See you later, hon.
0:49:06 > 0:49:10While Daryl races ahead to prepare his grand plan,
0:49:10 > 0:49:13a stunned Clodagh is going to have to take the long route.
0:49:13 > 0:49:16It would feel more romantic if he was beside me.
0:49:16 > 0:49:20This being blindfolded business... I wasn't expecting that.
0:49:23 > 0:49:30He has just a few minutes to turn himself into the knight in shining armour he hopes his bride will love.
0:49:30 > 0:49:32Married man, now, in't I?
0:49:32 > 0:49:35She's not going to expect this. They're going to expect something.
0:49:35 > 0:49:38I guarantee you it's not going to be this.
0:49:38 > 0:49:41If she doesn't like a knight in shining armour, what hope have we got?
0:49:41 > 0:49:44But how will his bold gesture fare
0:49:44 > 0:49:49with a nervy bride who's given up trying to guess what Daryl thinks is romantic?
0:49:49 > 0:49:52I really don't know about his plans.
0:49:52 > 0:49:56I don't know. I really don't know.
0:49:57 > 0:50:00LAUGHTER
0:50:01 > 0:50:03I don't see what's funny!
0:50:03 > 0:50:07And like any knight in shining armour, he has his white horse.
0:50:11 > 0:50:14And with Clodagh only metres from her surprise,
0:50:14 > 0:50:17she is still hoping for the best.
0:50:17 > 0:50:21Are we on a beach? Sounds like water.
0:50:21 > 0:50:25No, love. You're stuck in a giant puddle halfway up a mountain.
0:50:25 > 0:50:30In fact, the only positive thing is that you can't see what your husband's wearing.
0:50:30 > 0:50:33Take a step. Take a step. There you go.
0:50:33 > 0:50:34- OK?- Yeah.
0:50:34 > 0:50:37I give you Sir Daryl.
0:50:37 > 0:50:40- Your knight in shining armour. - SHE LAUGHS
0:50:40 > 0:50:41M'lady.
0:50:41 > 0:50:44M'fella!
0:50:44 > 0:50:46Would you like to say hello to Harry?
0:50:48 > 0:50:49Hello.
0:50:49 > 0:50:51This is all part of the romance.
0:50:51 > 0:50:54Knight in shining armour, white horse.
0:50:54 > 0:50:58- All the little things and some of the big things.- Big things!
0:50:58 > 0:51:00- He's a big horse.- He's a big horse.
0:51:00 > 0:51:03Careful now. One movement, yeah?
0:51:03 > 0:51:08It might seem romantic to Daryl, but Clodagh's apprehensive.
0:51:08 > 0:51:11And there's still the dreaded twinkling lights.
0:51:11 > 0:51:15Do you mind if I use my little surprise just for five minutes?
0:51:15 > 0:51:17Go on.
0:51:17 > 0:51:18The lights are finally on,.
0:51:18 > 0:51:22Daryl has his dream, but Clodagh look terrified.
0:51:22 > 0:51:27- I definitely was not expecting a horse.- Good boy. Whoa, Harry.
0:51:27 > 0:51:31- Whoa, Harry. Whoa, Harry. Should we go for a walk?- Yeah.
0:51:31 > 0:51:34Walk on, Harry. Walk on. Walk on, Harry.
0:51:39 > 0:51:42As Daryl leads his bride to the outside reception,
0:51:42 > 0:51:46guests are arriving at his home-made tepee village.
0:51:46 > 0:51:52Complete with roaring fires, marshmallows and, yes, more fairy lights.
0:51:52 > 0:51:54Look at the lights.
0:51:54 > 0:51:57Come on over to the fire.
0:51:57 > 0:52:00I'm really jealous!
0:52:00 > 0:52:04- Ugh, so romantic.- He's made up for those few years.- He definitely has.
0:52:04 > 0:52:06- Definitely has.- Definitely has.
0:52:06 > 0:52:09The romantic lights are a big hit with the guests,
0:52:09 > 0:52:14but Clodagh wanted a warm, traditional country manor.
0:52:14 > 0:52:16What will she think of an outdoor DIY reception?
0:52:16 > 0:52:18You and your lights!
0:52:20 > 0:52:21APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
0:52:22 > 0:52:26An impressive entrance, but it looks like it's dawning on Clodagh
0:52:26 > 0:52:31that the rest of her wedding could be outside in a cold, Irish winter.
0:52:31 > 0:52:36So Daryl quickly tries to convince her there is method to his madness.
0:52:36 > 0:52:37Chandelier and all.
0:52:37 > 0:52:40- Marshmallows.- Marshmallows. - Open fire.- Barbecue!
0:52:45 > 0:52:48I expected lots of LED lights, I expected tents,
0:52:48 > 0:52:52but that's not where I was going with this.
0:52:52 > 0:52:54We're going to show you our badminton hall.
0:52:54 > 0:52:58- It's a badminton hall? - It's a badminton hall.
0:52:58 > 0:53:00Not the stately manor you were hoping for.
0:53:04 > 0:53:10So far, Daryl's idea of romance has been worlds apart from Clodagh's.
0:53:10 > 0:53:14The battered badminton hall is his last chance to turn the day around.
0:53:14 > 0:53:19- Can I open my eyes? - Open your eyes.- Wow.
0:53:24 > 0:53:25It's lovely.
0:53:25 > 0:53:30Daryl has pulled out all the stops, spending the rest of his budget
0:53:30 > 0:53:35transforming the cold hall into a romantic candle-lit haven.
0:53:35 > 0:53:38It has all the traditional touches Clodagh loves,
0:53:38 > 0:53:41but also has an outdoors feel, with wild flowers
0:53:41 > 0:53:45and hand-made log table centres and cake stands.
0:53:45 > 0:53:47It's beautiful.
0:53:47 > 0:53:49- You like it?- Boy done good.
0:53:53 > 0:53:56I can't believe what you've done. It's incredible. Absolutely incredible.
0:53:56 > 0:54:02- Am I your knight in shining armour? Your Prince Charming?- Always, dear.
0:54:02 > 0:54:05All the hard work has paid off.
0:54:05 > 0:54:10The knight in shining armour has finally won over his damsel in distress.
0:54:10 > 0:54:14Would you like to stand up for Mr and Mrs, Daryl and Clodagh?
0:54:14 > 0:54:16APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
0:54:26 > 0:54:29And it's not just the bride who is now feeling relieved.
0:54:29 > 0:54:32Everything's run perfectly, Clodagh didn't get thrown off a horse...
0:54:32 > 0:54:37I think we really pulled it off. I think. Pat on our backs.
0:54:37 > 0:54:39It did look like a sports hall.
0:54:39 > 0:54:42Wasn't quite sure what to expect when you walked in,
0:54:42 > 0:54:46but it's beautiful. You wouldn't know where you were.
0:54:46 > 0:54:50So different from a normal wedding. The knight in shining armour...
0:54:50 > 0:54:52It's just...
0:54:52 > 0:54:56I'm speechless about the whole thing. It's superb. Phenomenal.
0:54:56 > 0:54:58As I say, he's done a great job.
0:54:58 > 0:55:03I'm struck dumb by the fantastic day that we've had
0:55:03 > 0:55:07and the work that has been done by Daryl.
0:55:07 > 0:55:09A nicer fella, Clodagh couldn't have found.
0:55:09 > 0:55:11APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
0:55:13 > 0:55:16Three weeks is not a long time to plan a wedding.
0:55:16 > 0:55:17LAUGHTER
0:55:19 > 0:55:21I thought it was. It's not.
0:55:21 > 0:55:26I hope that I've made the day of your dreams. I really do.
0:55:26 > 0:55:29Thanks very much for coming and helping me out for this day.
0:55:29 > 0:55:31APPLAUSE
0:55:34 > 0:55:39Daryl may have well and truly pushed the boundaries of romance,
0:55:39 > 0:55:42but for this couple, true love conquered all.
0:55:42 > 0:55:44I had a vision, a kind of a dream.
0:55:44 > 0:55:47I wanted to create a fairytale.
0:55:47 > 0:55:51Does a little girl not dream of a knight in shining armour
0:55:51 > 0:55:55coming and whisking her away on a white horse?
0:55:55 > 0:55:57Not when they're big when she's so small!
0:55:59 > 0:56:02He's done an absolutely brilliant job.
0:56:02 > 0:56:05I wouldn't have thought of any of it, really.
0:56:06 > 0:56:10But you've done brilliantly.
0:56:10 > 0:56:12- (Thanks.)- Thank you.
0:56:14 > 0:56:17APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
0:56:17 > 0:56:21And at least he's learned what a woman wants on Valentine's Day.
0:56:21 > 0:56:25Next Valentine's Day, now that I know what a big softie he is,
0:56:25 > 0:56:28he's going to have to live up to what he's done.
0:56:28 > 0:56:30It's going to have to be a big gesture.
0:56:30 > 0:56:34- Suppose we could go out for a few pints or something. - THEY LAUGH
0:56:36 > 0:56:40# With out without you, ah-hah
0:56:40 > 0:56:42# I can't live
0:56:45 > 0:56:49# With or without you
0:56:58 > 0:57:02# And you give yourself away. #
