0:00:02 > 0:00:09- Tony and Pippa are head over heels in love.- He's a gorgeous person. - They're desperate to get hitched.
0:00:09 > 0:00:13But Pippa works as a nurse and between them, they don't earn much money.
0:00:13 > 0:00:18- So we're giving them £12,000. - I'm so excited!
0:00:18 > 0:00:22And a chance for Tony to prove himself to the woman he loves.
0:00:22 > 0:00:25But there's a catch - every single decision between now
0:00:25 > 0:00:30- and the wedding must be made by Tony alone.- I'm dead!
0:00:30 > 0:00:33He and Pippa have agreed in the presence of a lawyer that she will
0:00:33 > 0:00:37- know absolutely nothing until the big day.- I'm very worried.
0:00:37 > 0:00:40Three weeks apart will push their relationship to the limit.
0:00:40 > 0:00:43I want to hear him say everything's OK, trust me.
0:00:43 > 0:00:46So will his best men give him the best advice?
0:00:46 > 0:00:48It's for the wedding!
0:00:48 > 0:00:51It's not for her, though. A vodka luge is not for her.
0:00:51 > 0:00:54Will he survive a Dutch stag party?
0:00:54 > 0:00:57- And does he have a clue... - Is that a 10?
0:00:57 > 0:00:59..how to find the perfect dress?
0:00:59 > 0:01:03SHE GROANS
0:01:03 > 0:01:07Can this man give his woman a day she will never forget?
0:01:07 > 0:01:10If he gets it wrong, then it's like, how well do you know me?
0:01:25 > 0:01:27Today, Pippa's moving out of the house she shares with Tony
0:01:27 > 0:01:31and back in with her parents for the next three weeks.
0:01:31 > 0:01:32This isn't their first stab at a wedding.
0:01:32 > 0:01:37They already had one organised, but things didn't go according to plan.
0:01:39 > 0:01:42We decided that we might have to postpone the wedding in January
0:01:42 > 0:01:48because Tony was out of work over Christmas for about three months.
0:01:48 > 0:01:53And we couldn't save for the wedding and pay our bills just on one wage.
0:01:53 > 0:01:58Pippa really had her heart set on it and there was just nothing really
0:01:58 > 0:02:02that I could do in order to try and make it happen still.
0:02:02 > 0:02:06So now, Pippa's taken control of their finances.
0:02:06 > 0:02:09I just wanted to pay £24, please.
0:02:09 > 0:02:14He has no idea what comes out of our account and what goes in and balancing the books.
0:02:14 > 0:02:16He just can't do it.
0:02:16 > 0:02:19Stop defacing the bill!
0:02:19 > 0:02:23I will say, you have this much and I have this much.
0:02:25 > 0:02:29And it's not the only area where she rules the roost.
0:02:29 > 0:02:34I'm in control of the relationship. Honey! Honey!
0:02:34 > 0:02:37I'm in control of the relationship!
0:02:37 > 0:02:39- Can't you just say...- You're in charge of the cooking and the bins!
0:02:39 > 0:02:42Go on, honey, please scoop out the tray. Show me you can do it.
0:02:42 > 0:02:44That's disgusting!
0:02:47 > 0:02:49HE CHOKES
0:02:49 > 0:02:51It still smells!
0:02:53 > 0:02:55That's rubbish stuff to be in control of!
0:02:55 > 0:02:57Can't you give me something good?
0:02:57 > 0:03:00- Like what?- I don't know. - I'm in charge of all the good stuff!
0:03:02 > 0:03:05But now, Tony's in control of Pippa's big day.
0:03:05 > 0:03:10It's a point now where I see it as a challenge and just want to prove to everyone, look what I can do.
0:03:10 > 0:03:13For everyone to go, actually, you did a really good job.
0:03:13 > 0:03:15I can't believe you did manage to pull it off.
0:03:15 > 0:03:17You know, prove people wrong.
0:03:17 > 0:03:23Philippa knows exactly what she wants on her day. Exactly.
0:03:23 > 0:03:26She's planning mad. She makes lists for lists.
0:03:26 > 0:03:28And everything is clearly written down.
0:03:28 > 0:03:32The idea of Tony organising this wedding,
0:03:34 > 0:03:36without Pippa's input,
0:03:36 > 0:03:38is probably complete madness.
0:03:38 > 0:03:40And he's only got three weeks to pull it off!
0:03:40 > 0:03:45When I see you again, it will be the happiest day of your life. I promise.
0:03:45 > 0:03:47- I love you.- I love you too.
0:03:47 > 0:03:52Fortunately, Dad Cabs are there to pick up the pieces!
0:03:52 > 0:03:56- Welcome home!- Oh! This is my home!
0:03:58 > 0:04:02The next time they see each other will be at the altar.
0:04:02 > 0:04:06It's going to be a lot harder than what I thought it's going to be.
0:04:06 > 0:04:09Three weeks of not being able to speak to her - it's going to be tough.
0:04:16 > 0:04:18Best man Archie arrives to help Tony brainstorm.
0:04:18 > 0:04:22But he's a sales rep, not a wedding planner.
0:04:22 > 0:04:25Welcome to wedding HQ!
0:04:25 > 0:04:30- Don't worry about a coaster. - So what's top of their to-do list?
0:04:30 > 0:04:35You can charter a boat in order to do the wedding breakfast.
0:04:35 > 0:04:37And then like, getting taken off the boat...
0:04:37 > 0:04:39- Onto speed boats?- Yeah.
0:04:39 > 0:04:42You could even like, ski off or something like that!
0:04:42 > 0:04:44- THEY LAUGH - Tony will absolutely love
0:04:44 > 0:04:48having a big, massive, rowdy party.
0:04:48 > 0:04:52And I would as well! But I can't see Pippa really enjoying that on her wedding night!
0:04:52 > 0:04:54Vodka luge!
0:04:54 > 0:04:57- What the hell is that? - It's an ice sculpture, right, which
0:04:57 > 0:05:00has a bit at the bottom, like where you put your mouth.
0:05:00 > 0:05:04And you pour vodka down it, or Sambuca, or Cointreau.
0:05:04 > 0:05:08Something that's just going to put you in a smouldering mess!
0:05:08 > 0:05:10That's brilliant. I love it!
0:05:10 > 0:05:12I don't care whether you've organised
0:05:12 > 0:05:15a celebrity wedding or whatever. I don't think anyone could do it
0:05:15 > 0:05:17like what she would want it in her head.
0:05:17 > 0:05:22So I kind of am a bit worried about what he might do!
0:05:22 > 0:05:25Something else - parachuting in.
0:05:25 > 0:05:28Absolutely class! Brilliant.
0:05:28 > 0:05:33The wedding is like an entering of adulthood.
0:05:33 > 0:05:39And although you have other milestones, this will be the single most important day of my life.
0:05:39 > 0:05:44- Casino. - Yes! Underline and exclamation mark. That would be brilliant.
0:05:44 > 0:05:49At the end of the day, the day's about the wedding, so it's not a party - it's a wedding!
0:05:49 > 0:05:53The important thing to me on the wedding day is to have the party at the end.
0:05:53 > 0:06:00I mean, I've been told by Pippa if I call it that, I won't be invited, but I'm planning it now, so...!
0:06:03 > 0:06:04It's day two.
0:06:04 > 0:06:06And Tony's feeling upbeat.
0:06:06 > 0:06:12I think we're really going to pull it off and put on a really, really good wedding for Pippa and me.
0:06:12 > 0:06:17A feeling which lasts about five minutes.
0:06:18 > 0:06:19Not open on Saturday.
0:06:21 > 0:06:25I'm calling about the possibility of booking a venue for a wedding.
0:06:25 > 0:06:27Hello?
0:06:32 > 0:06:34They're on the phone!
0:06:34 > 0:06:38Crap!
0:06:38 > 0:06:43Yeah. Is it possible, I mean, to come and arrange a viewing today?
0:06:43 > 0:06:46That's brilliant. All right, thank you very much. Bye-bye.
0:06:46 > 0:06:50Her first appointment, though, is in an hour. So we've got to get going now.
0:06:54 > 0:06:57If I pulled up, and there was... I don't know,
0:06:57 > 0:07:03a garage, or a barn or something like that - not impressed!
0:07:03 > 0:07:05So how about an old mill?
0:07:05 > 0:07:09At least it has a state-of-the-art laser show!
0:07:09 > 0:07:13It's not going to look quite as authentic because there's bright light out there.
0:07:16 > 0:07:18BLAST OF MUSIC
0:07:22 > 0:07:26- Come on, let's see!- No, I'm leading! - THEY LAUGH
0:07:26 > 0:07:30- Oh, Tony, put him down! - I'm uncomfortable now, actually!
0:07:30 > 0:07:32Just pretend you're Pippa!
0:07:35 > 0:07:37THEY LAUGH Classic!
0:07:37 > 0:07:41Did you enjoy that?
0:07:43 > 0:07:44Get it on!
0:07:44 > 0:07:46- Thank you very much. - Good luck, chaps.
0:07:46 > 0:07:48May the Force be with you! All the best.
0:07:48 > 0:07:52At this rate, they're going to need all the force they can get!
0:07:52 > 0:07:55I feel like we've wasted today so far.
0:07:55 > 0:07:57If we can't get any more viewings, what are we going to do?
0:07:57 > 0:08:00We'll have to have it in the back garden, or something!
0:08:02 > 0:08:05At least we'd have the wow factor - it would be like,
0:08:05 > 0:08:06wow, you're a bloody idiot!
0:08:08 > 0:08:12CHURCH ORGAN MUSIC
0:08:16 > 0:08:19Pippa's also got wedding venues on her mind.
0:08:19 > 0:08:22But of a more traditional kind.
0:08:22 > 0:08:27She decides to show her godmother her favourite church, and its unique attraction.
0:08:31 > 0:08:33- Longest aisle in Ipswich.- Is it?- Yes.
0:08:33 > 0:08:36- Shall we walk it? I think we should. - Shall I be the bridesmaid?
0:08:36 > 0:08:37Yeah, go on!
0:08:37 > 0:08:40THEY HUM THE WEDDING MARCH
0:08:40 > 0:08:45I would put, like, you know, organza ribbon down here with some bows, make it pink.
0:08:45 > 0:08:48Some flowers, maybe.
0:08:48 > 0:08:51And then that's it, then you stop.
0:08:51 > 0:08:54- Is it here?- Here.- So he'd be standing there?- He'd be standing there.
0:08:54 > 0:08:58One of the reasons why I like the length of the aisle is because
0:08:58 > 0:09:05everybody will have more time to look at us all in our freshest state!
0:09:05 > 0:09:07Look at me! Look at me, me, me!
0:09:07 > 0:09:11- And if they spend too much time looking at the bridesmaids, I'll cry!- No, you'll be in front.
0:09:11 > 0:09:15- I'll be in front.- You will be in front, everybody will look at you. Don't worry about that.
0:09:16 > 0:09:19I think that Tony knows the church is important to me.
0:09:19 > 0:09:25But I don't think he knows to the extent of why it's important, or how important it is.
0:09:25 > 0:09:29But the longest aisle in Ipswich isn't on Tony's wish list.
0:09:29 > 0:09:31The church, for me, is not something I believe in.
0:09:31 > 0:09:41I'm not religious. And if I was to make my vows in front of God and say, you know, vows to Pippa,
0:09:41 > 0:09:46you know, while I'm supposed to be making them in front of God as well, I would feel as though I'm lying.
0:09:46 > 0:09:49Hmmm. Maybe they should have discussed this beforehand!
0:09:49 > 0:09:53I'll make up for it in other ways. She'll still get her perfect day.
0:09:53 > 0:09:56Just apart from the church bit!
0:09:56 > 0:09:57I'm dead!
0:10:01 > 0:10:04Day four, and Tony's called in reinforcements.
0:10:04 > 0:10:10Archie's joined by joint best man, Phil, who is a student and part-time speedboat salesman.
0:10:10 > 0:10:15They meet at Christchurch Mansion - a stately home which is open to the public.
0:10:20 > 0:10:23- This is the wedding room.- Uh-huh.
0:10:23 > 0:10:26- It holds 45 people.- Is 45 a maximum?
0:10:26 > 0:10:30Yes. Yes, it is. The minstrels' gallery...
0:10:30 > 0:10:36That might be a squeeze for his 65 guests, but Tony's distracted by his ideas for some macho entertainment.
0:10:36 > 0:10:40We could go from here and then parachute into the evening reception do.
0:10:40 > 0:10:42Three James Bonds, then?!
0:10:42 > 0:10:44- Yeah.- Right...
0:10:44 > 0:10:47Not too sure about the 007 thing.
0:10:47 > 0:10:51Erm, not coming down in a parachute, anyhow. Little bit dangerous.
0:10:51 > 0:10:53Things may go wrong.
0:10:53 > 0:10:56You've got a stag night - can't you just do a James Bond theme on the stag night?
0:10:58 > 0:11:00Bond themed stag night.
0:11:00 > 0:11:02We were thinking about paintballing, so...
0:11:02 > 0:11:07- Thinking about shooting.- He's got to steer away from the boys' theme and think about his bride-to-be as well.
0:11:12 > 0:11:17Would the bride-to-be appreciate the next venue on the boys' list?
0:11:17 > 0:11:21Boreham House was once owned by Henry Ford and is Grade I listed.
0:11:21 > 0:11:24Oh, my God! This is amazing!
0:11:24 > 0:11:28This is absolutely fantastic. Wow.
0:11:28 > 0:11:31This is proper special.
0:11:32 > 0:11:34You're a bit blown away, really.
0:11:34 > 0:11:38- Yeah, I am.- The owner's on hand to give them the tour.
0:11:38 > 0:11:40- Hi, you must be Tony.- I'm Tony, yes.
0:11:40 > 0:11:41- Hi Tony, I'm Teresa.- I'm the groom.
0:11:41 > 0:11:44- Lovely.- Nice to meet you. - OK, this is the ceremony room.
0:11:44 > 0:11:47Holds up to 120 people.
0:11:47 > 0:11:49I think it's a spectacular room.
0:11:49 > 0:11:51- Again - oh, my God! - Yeah, it's fantastic.
0:11:51 > 0:11:53That view is fantastic as well, isn't it?
0:11:53 > 0:11:55OK. This is the dining room.
0:11:55 > 0:11:59This is where you would eat. Crystal on the table - we always use crystal.
0:11:59 > 0:12:03- So this is a really nice, intimate room.- It's certainly intimate.
0:12:03 > 0:12:05But that doesn't put Tony off.
0:12:05 > 0:12:08You've got a separate room for the ceremony, sit-down meal, then...
0:12:08 > 0:12:13Then we go out to the evening, yes. We've got full use of everything.
0:12:13 > 0:12:18We actually like to call this our palace in the grounds.
0:12:18 > 0:12:22This is where we convert your evening into something spectacular.
0:12:22 > 0:12:27So your guests have seen the splendour of the house and then they come through to the pavilion.
0:12:27 > 0:12:30- So there you have it.- This is brilliant. This is really nice.
0:12:35 > 0:12:37But how much is all this splendour going to cost?
0:12:37 > 0:12:40I think we need to go in with a bit of a game plan.
0:12:40 > 0:12:43And I'm pretty blown away by this place.
0:12:43 > 0:12:46I'm kind of a bit nervous for you as well, now!
0:12:46 > 0:12:48- Cos this could be the place.- Yeah.
0:12:48 > 0:12:51I'm just like... how much is she gonna...?
0:12:51 > 0:12:55A wedding in April, a normal wedding, having what you've got,
0:12:55 > 0:12:59would probably come to about £14,000, in all honesty.
0:12:59 > 0:13:02What's the best you can do?
0:13:02 > 0:13:03Three-and a-half, maybe.
0:13:03 > 0:13:08Bearing in mind that it's three weeks away, and you're unlikely to get another wedding booking.
0:13:08 > 0:13:10Of course, we won't. You're right. Do you love it?
0:13:10 > 0:13:12Yes. Yeah, I think you can tell that I do.
0:13:12 > 0:13:14It's his favourite place we've seen so far.
0:13:14 > 0:13:17By far. And I know that Pippa would love it too.
0:13:17 > 0:13:20Right, whatever your budget is, tell me, and we'll do it for it.
0:13:20 > 0:13:22It's not about money, it's about your dream.
0:13:22 > 0:13:25Because to do a dream is something that's very, very special.
0:13:25 > 0:13:27I think you should say, thanks very much.
0:13:27 > 0:13:30I will! You're amazing. Thank you.
0:13:30 > 0:13:34It's going to be a dream. It's going to be fantastic - the best wedding you could ever have dreamed of.
0:13:36 > 0:13:38Result!
0:13:38 > 0:13:43Tony's managed to bag the mansion for a quarter of the normal price.
0:13:43 > 0:13:46So excited about it. I just can't wait now.
0:13:46 > 0:13:48I'm welling up, and it's...
0:13:48 > 0:13:51yeah, a really emotional day, but...
0:13:51 > 0:13:54I'll get a good night's sleep tonight, I think!
0:13:54 > 0:13:57Cos this is just a big weight off my mind.
0:13:57 > 0:13:59I've got the venue! I've got the venue.
0:13:59 > 0:14:01So, yeah, happy. Very happy.
0:14:01 > 0:14:04I'm getting married here! Yes!
0:14:08 > 0:14:12But what will Pippa think? Instead of looking at the longest aisle in Ipswich,
0:14:12 > 0:14:16she will now be going down the shortest aisle in Chelmsford.
0:14:20 > 0:14:25After getting a great deal on his venue, Tony's working out how much he can blow on the party.
0:14:25 > 0:14:28£8600. That's like over three grand for fun.
0:14:28 > 0:14:30And we've over-costed.
0:14:31 > 0:14:34Left out of the wedding planning, Pippa's only consolation is her box
0:14:34 > 0:14:37full of ideas for their original wedding.
0:14:37 > 0:14:39# Love is like a butterfly
0:14:39 > 0:14:42# As soft and gentle as a sigh... #
0:14:42 > 0:14:47That was my favourite. Cos our theme was butterflies.
0:14:47 > 0:14:52You have to clip the butterfly to open the invitation, which I thought was really cute.
0:14:52 > 0:14:55# Love is like a butterfly
0:14:55 > 0:14:58# A rare and gentle thing... #
0:14:58 > 0:15:02We decided that we'd get... well, I decided that we'd get real flowers!
0:15:02 > 0:15:04Tony didn't care!
0:15:04 > 0:15:09# Love is like a butterfly... #
0:15:09 > 0:15:11It's lots of fun, organising.
0:15:11 > 0:15:18I love organising! And putting things into order and writing lists and thinking, dreaming, really.
0:15:18 > 0:15:23Living dreams out in a box, really.
0:15:26 > 0:15:28The boys are indulging in some dreams of their own.
0:15:28 > 0:15:31I think maybe a call in to the RAF to see if they'll do a fly by.
0:15:31 > 0:15:35Shooting - clay-pigeon. A freak show!
0:15:37 > 0:15:42- That ruined my idea! A freak show. - A bouncy assault course...
0:15:42 > 0:15:45I can't believe how much we've got to spend, still.
0:15:45 > 0:15:49With so much money left over, talk turns to the stag fund.
0:15:49 > 0:15:51- I'll leave it to you guys. - What do you think - New York?
0:15:51 > 0:15:54- New York would be awesome.- But then you could go Eastern Europe...
0:15:54 > 0:15:57- Sweden.- Eastern Europe. Sweden?!
0:15:57 > 0:15:59Blonde, busty girls.
0:15:59 > 0:16:01So whose stag do is this?
0:16:01 > 0:16:08Back at home, Tony's having second thoughts about splashing so much cash on himself.
0:16:08 > 0:16:11I'm over-ruling New York cos I think it's a bit difficult to justify 900 quid
0:16:11 > 0:16:15for the three of us for a stag do, when we're only putting 150 quid in for the hens!
0:16:17 > 0:16:20You're killing my mojo here, Tony!
0:16:20 > 0:16:25No, I'm not justifying £900 out of the budget for our stag do.
0:16:25 > 0:16:31I really don't. Just put the stag do on the back burner for the time being.
0:16:31 > 0:16:33- Let's get the quotes on the things. - Boo!
0:16:33 > 0:16:35Right, where's the list of the fun stuff...?
0:16:35 > 0:16:37You're killing me, actually! Absolutely killing me!
0:16:37 > 0:16:41- Let's just do it, quickly. - We're after some fun.
0:16:41 > 0:16:45Yeah, I'm thinking I've got to spend the rest of my life with Pippa, and if I've blown 900 quid...
0:16:45 > 0:16:48I'm feeling a bit stressed at the moment.
0:16:48 > 0:16:51It's mostly because of
0:16:51 > 0:16:54talk of the stag do in New York.
0:16:54 > 0:16:57I actually this afternoon just wanted to ask
0:16:57 > 0:17:01Phil and Archie to leave, and just wanted to get on with it by myself.
0:17:03 > 0:17:06It's the end of week one.
0:17:06 > 0:17:10With the venue sorted, but nothing else booked, Tony's thoughts turn to the dress.
0:17:10 > 0:17:14His knowledge on the topic is... sketchy, to say the least.
0:17:14 > 0:17:18So, what are you actually looking for? Have you got any ideas?
0:17:18 > 0:17:22- A wedding dress! - What sort of size is she?
0:17:22 > 0:17:24- I don't have a clue.- No idea?- No.
0:17:24 > 0:17:26She's not skinny, but she's not fat.
0:17:26 > 0:17:2912 or 14 maybe, that sort of size?
0:17:29 > 0:17:31I don't know.
0:17:31 > 0:17:34- I don't know either. - This is going to be fun, isn't it?
0:17:34 > 0:17:36- Is that a 10?- That is a 10.
0:17:36 > 0:17:42- Something like that is a 10. She's bigger than a 10. - You can stop doing that now!
0:17:42 > 0:17:47Pippa's also trying on dresses, and she knows exactly what she wants.
0:17:47 > 0:17:50That is my dress! That's it.
0:17:50 > 0:17:51How beautiful is it, though?
0:17:55 > 0:17:58That's so pretty!
0:17:58 > 0:18:02Because I'd already seen one and chosen one, and put a deposit down on
0:18:02 > 0:18:07my dream dress, I think he's going to have a hard time
0:18:07 > 0:18:09finding my second dream dress.
0:18:09 > 0:18:15She can model the dream dress for her mum and bridesmaids, but she won't be wearing it on the day.
0:18:15 > 0:18:19This dress is everything you've wanted, isn't it?
0:18:19 > 0:18:21It's the dream dress.
0:18:21 > 0:18:23I just love it. It's the most...
0:18:23 > 0:18:25it's just really comfortable.
0:18:25 > 0:18:30It's the mix of elegant and simple, with a little bit of sparkle.
0:18:30 > 0:18:34It would be fantastic if Tony picked that dress for you, wouldn't it?
0:18:34 > 0:18:36It would be freaky, really freaky.
0:18:36 > 0:18:39Freaky? It would be a miracle!
0:18:39 > 0:18:45With thousands of wedding dresses to choose from, and no idea of what he wants, Tony's floundering.
0:18:45 > 0:18:49D'you want ivory, white, would you like a colour, gold-colour? Have you thought about that?
0:18:49 > 0:18:52I guess that's a no, then.
0:18:52 > 0:18:57This is slightly plainer. That's got a tie up detail on the back.
0:18:57 > 0:19:02Nice detail, just with a slight colouring on the beads and embroidery.
0:19:02 > 0:19:04Have a look round the other side as well.
0:19:04 > 0:19:06Will the answer be waiting for him there, then?
0:19:08 > 0:19:10That's a beautiful dress on.
0:19:10 > 0:19:13Beautiful shape on.
0:19:13 > 0:19:17All this choice is leaving Tony quite literally lost for words.
0:19:17 > 0:19:18That's very fitted.
0:19:18 > 0:19:20Some detail on the back of the train.
0:19:23 > 0:19:26It's taffeta, this one. It's a soft fabric.
0:19:26 > 0:19:28Don't confuse me with more terms!
0:19:28 > 0:19:31Poor love - it's all just too much.
0:19:31 > 0:19:34It'll be fine, honestly. She will love what you pick.
0:19:34 > 0:19:36You wait and see.
0:19:36 > 0:19:37I'm not so sure!
0:19:38 > 0:19:43Seeing her dream dress again reminds Pippa why no other dress will do.
0:19:46 > 0:19:51- Would you want, like, separates?- No. - Do you want it that sparkly?- No.
0:19:53 > 0:19:54Corset back.
0:19:54 > 0:19:55I hate buttons.
0:19:55 > 0:19:57What's that?
0:19:57 > 0:20:00- The body is too short.- You don't really like that one at all, then?- No.
0:20:02 > 0:20:04I don't do red, and I don't do pink.
0:20:04 > 0:20:06And I don't do black.
0:20:06 > 0:20:09I hate lace and I don't want to look like a cake, either.
0:20:11 > 0:20:15We are going to see how Tony really knows you, aren't we?
0:20:15 > 0:20:16Yes. But that's the problem.
0:20:16 > 0:20:21Because if he gets it wrong, then it's like, "How well do you know me?"
0:20:21 > 0:20:24It could go extremely wrong very, very quickly.
0:20:24 > 0:20:32He could buy a colour and put her in, for example, a red dress.
0:20:32 > 0:20:37- She'd be devastated. - But I think Tony is sensible. I think he knows what...
0:20:37 > 0:20:40what she likes.
0:20:40 > 0:20:42Or does he?
0:20:42 > 0:20:46I really like this one. There's not anything on it that I would change.
0:20:46 > 0:20:49The question is, would Pippa like it?
0:20:49 > 0:20:52No, you can't buy red. You can't do it.
0:20:52 > 0:20:53Do you not reckon?
0:20:53 > 0:21:01Pippa is just trying to get her head around any dress that isn't her dream dress.
0:21:01 > 0:21:03I hate it with a capital H.
0:21:03 > 0:21:06I always said, you know, as long as the dress fit and it was comfortable,
0:21:06 > 0:21:09it really didn't matter what it look like.
0:21:09 > 0:21:11Because he's chosen it for some reason.
0:21:11 > 0:21:17However, now I'm in the position, I'm not sure I WOULD just wear it.
0:21:21 > 0:21:24I am quite worried.
0:21:24 > 0:21:26Because you've got such an idea of what you want.
0:21:26 > 0:21:31Oh, see, this is the problem because I don't think another dress is going to be good enough.
0:21:34 > 0:21:37I do think that you've got to put that dress behind you.
0:21:37 > 0:21:40You know, you're going to upset yourself.
0:21:40 > 0:21:43You're going to ruin a lovely day.
0:21:43 > 0:21:49Because you don't know what you're going to be wearing until the day before.
0:21:54 > 0:21:57- SOBBING - Don't you cry.
0:22:07 > 0:22:10I know it's stupid, because it is just a dress, but...
0:22:13 > 0:22:14Don't cry.
0:22:21 > 0:22:23Makes it real, doesn't it?
0:22:23 > 0:22:25She's really crying.
0:22:25 > 0:22:28I always said the dress would be the most important thing for her.
0:22:28 > 0:22:36With Pippa's heart set on one dress and one dress alone, Tony's chances of making her happy seem doomed.
0:22:36 > 0:22:37I've broken it. Take it back.
0:22:43 > 0:22:45It's supposed to be like that.
0:22:45 > 0:22:47Where does this bit go, then?
0:22:50 > 0:22:52Not doing that again, get me out of here!
0:22:52 > 0:22:54Quite a nice dress.
0:22:54 > 0:22:58- It's like my duvet. - How are you getting on?
0:22:58 > 0:23:00Not very well.
0:23:00 > 0:23:03- Do you want me to pick some out for you?- Yeah, if you could.- OK.
0:23:03 > 0:23:05There's an A-line.
0:23:05 > 0:23:06Mm-hm.
0:23:06 > 0:23:11That's quite nice. Do you have anyone here that could try it on for us?
0:23:11 > 0:23:14- Or on a mannequin, or... - On a mannequin?
0:23:14 > 0:23:17- Yeah, or on someone. Yeah. - Yeah, can do that for you, if you want.- Yes, please.
0:23:17 > 0:23:25After going to three shops and considering just four dresses, Tony gives in and picks one.
0:23:25 > 0:23:26Buttons and all.
0:23:26 > 0:23:28I hate buttons.
0:23:28 > 0:23:32- So, you don't want to go and see any more?- Nope.- Sold.- Yep.
0:23:32 > 0:23:35- Happy days.- Done. Dress done.
0:23:38 > 0:23:42With the dreaded dress out of the way, Tony gets down to business.
0:23:42 > 0:23:46- After 10 days, he's chosen flowers...- Thank you very much.
0:23:46 > 0:23:48Hired some suits.
0:23:50 > 0:23:54- And taken a gamble on the evening entertainment. - Yeah. I'd like blackjack, roulette.
0:23:54 > 0:23:58- How much would that be?- But the cost is starting to mount up.
0:23:58 > 0:24:01Today's the day he's buying wedding rings.
0:24:01 > 0:24:05But after spending two-thirds of his 12 grand budget, he wants to make some savings.
0:24:05 > 0:24:10- 1,300? Are you having a laugh? - Yeah, I'm not spending that much! - You've not got a budget.
0:24:10 > 0:24:13Sorry, if she didn't get a wedding ring, we needed a bucking bronco.
0:24:16 > 0:24:20Across town, Pippa's dream ring is in a different price bracket altogether.
0:24:20 > 0:24:23That is nice. How much is that one?
0:24:23 > 0:24:26That one's 2,600.
0:24:26 > 0:24:28Thereabouts.
0:24:28 > 0:24:31Brilliant. That is very pretty.
0:24:31 > 0:24:36Pippa wants a ring with bling, and Tony's got it.
0:24:36 > 0:24:37For himself.
0:24:37 > 0:24:41See, I like... I quite like it.
0:24:41 > 0:24:45Oh, and Pippa's costs £120 less than his.
0:24:45 > 0:24:47Will she be happy that your ring cost more?
0:24:47 > 0:24:53Look, I've just planned this whole wedding, so I deserve the more expensive ring, I think.
0:24:53 > 0:24:56- Come on, guys.- See ya... see ya later.
0:24:59 > 0:25:04Tony spent a lot of time choosing his ring and... I was surprised because I thought
0:25:04 > 0:25:09be would spend most of the time talking about hers, but we spent all the time talking about Tony's ring.
0:25:09 > 0:25:11And hers was an afterthought.
0:25:11 > 0:25:17With just over a week to go to the wedding, Pippa's dad is taking Tony out for a quiet drink.
0:25:17 > 0:25:19- Cheers.- Cheers.
0:25:19 > 0:25:26What Tony doesn't know is that his stag party starts tonight, and it's going to last for two whole days.
0:25:26 > 0:25:30- Hello. Hello, stranger.- Are you all right?- You better drink up, because we've got to go.
0:25:30 > 0:25:33Oh, my days!
0:25:35 > 0:25:37- You coming too?- I'm coming too.
0:25:37 > 0:25:40- Great!- You sneaky beggar!
0:25:40 > 0:25:43Back at home, Pippa can only guess what he's up do.
0:25:43 > 0:25:46I think Tony's on his stag do tonight.
0:25:48 > 0:25:51Actually, I think Tony is having a stag weekend.
0:25:51 > 0:25:55Because my dad wasn't here last night when I got home.
0:25:55 > 0:25:58And he's still not here now.
0:26:00 > 0:26:03Where are they?
0:26:03 > 0:26:07# A mouse lived in a windmill in old Amsterdam
0:26:07 > 0:26:10# A windmill with a mouse in and he wasn't browsing... #
0:26:15 > 0:26:17Hey, man!
0:26:17 > 0:26:19I'm sure they're doing something active.
0:26:21 > 0:26:23Rather than just drinking.
0:26:27 > 0:26:30Paintballing. Go-karting.
0:26:32 > 0:26:33That is awful.
0:26:33 > 0:26:37As long as someone's being sensible and looking after him.
0:26:38 > 0:26:41- Like my dad.- Abraham...
0:26:43 > 0:26:45It's my stag do.
0:26:45 > 0:26:49And I'm in Amsterdam. So, I've got to get absolutely trashed.
0:26:49 > 0:26:52That's... they're the rules.
0:26:52 > 0:26:54I think my dad will look after him.
0:26:54 > 0:26:58And make sure that the boys aren't doing stupid things.
0:26:58 > 0:27:01Shall we get him the kinky tart?
0:27:01 > 0:27:02This paired with that, look at that.
0:27:02 > 0:27:04I'll go with that.
0:27:11 > 0:27:12String vest?
0:27:18 > 0:27:20Who's the daddy?
0:27:20 > 0:27:25This specimen is marrying my daughter next Friday.
0:27:25 > 0:27:27I've gone from proud to sick.
0:27:30 > 0:27:35I also think, you know, I will still be at the forefront of his mind.
0:27:50 > 0:27:53I think it's time to call it a night. Let's get some sleep.
0:27:57 > 0:28:01Back in Ipswich, Pippa meets sister Vicky for a drink.
0:28:01 > 0:28:04Although she's not allowed to make any decisions herself,
0:28:04 > 0:28:07there's nothing to stop her dropping a few hints.
0:28:07 > 0:28:13Bridesmaid's dress. I really would like you to have a very plain, simple dress.
0:28:13 > 0:28:15With preferably no sparkle.
0:28:15 > 0:28:17And straps.
0:28:18 > 0:28:23- Wow.- And I would like you to remember what I want when you go looking for dresses.
0:28:23 > 0:28:26- Rather than what you want.- Right. It'll be a case of what looks best.
0:28:26 > 0:28:31- What I'm asking you is, think of my feelings when you're picking it. - I won't get something you'd hate.
0:28:31 > 0:28:34It doesn't matter, because Tony gets the final say and he won't let you.
0:28:34 > 0:28:36Well, it's a silly conversation, then. Isn't it?
0:28:38 > 0:28:42You can't exactly refuse to wear it, because then you're refusing to be a bridesmaid.
0:28:42 > 0:28:48- And you're not going to do that to me, I know you're not. - You're so aggressive.
0:28:48 > 0:28:52Because I know you're going to go out and pick a really sparkly big strapless dress.
0:28:52 > 0:28:56- I'm not... - That's going to...- ..intentionally going to pick anything.
0:28:56 > 0:28:58If it was your wedding, I'd do as I was told.
0:29:00 > 0:29:03You are so aggressive. You're like the bride from hell.
0:29:03 > 0:29:05- Why am I?- Because you are.
0:29:07 > 0:29:11Vicky, just pick a dress that's plain, with straps. Simple as that.
0:29:11 > 0:29:14That's cleared that up, then.
0:29:14 > 0:29:20But it's not going to be easy for Tony to please three bridesmaids and stick to his colour scheme,
0:29:20 > 0:29:23inspired by the wedding dress he wasn't brave enough to buy.
0:29:23 > 0:29:26The colour scheme is burgundy.
0:29:26 > 0:29:29So, go find some burgundy dresses.
0:29:31 > 0:29:33Burgundy is like red, yeah?
0:29:33 > 0:29:35It's burgundy.
0:29:35 > 0:29:40- Right, burgundy.- OK. - Are you going to stand there, or are you going to pick some dresses?
0:29:40 > 0:29:41I'm scouring, that's all.
0:29:41 > 0:29:45- Scouring or scowling?- Scowling.
0:29:45 > 0:29:50Me and the bridesmaids have a pact together that we've arranged beforehand, that if one of us
0:29:50 > 0:29:52says we don't like it, none of us will wear it.
0:29:52 > 0:29:56- So, he's taking on three of us, basically.- Good luck to him, then.
0:29:56 > 0:30:01- That's a horrible dress, but that colour?- Why is it horrible? - It's shiny. You don't want shiny.
0:30:01 > 0:30:03Do you hate that, too? Good. Thank you.
0:30:03 > 0:30:06But it is plain and strappy.
0:30:06 > 0:30:10Just try it on, you might find, you never know, you might go, "Well, actually, this is really nice".
0:30:10 > 0:30:12I will try on the dress.
0:30:12 > 0:30:14If it just gets us moving.
0:30:16 > 0:30:18No!
0:30:18 > 0:30:19It's horrible.
0:30:22 > 0:30:27- You hate it too, don't you? - I actually think it looks all right.
0:30:27 > 0:30:28Look.
0:30:28 > 0:30:31- That's on the inside. - That's organza!
0:30:31 > 0:30:34Suddenly, Tony is a fashion expert.
0:30:34 > 0:30:38- Do you hate it too? - I wouldn't expect you to wear a dress that you hated.
0:30:38 > 0:30:40So, that's fine.
0:30:40 > 0:30:42We really need to speed up the dress trying on, though.
0:30:42 > 0:30:46Because, we've been here, like, nearly half an hour. And that's one dress.
0:30:46 > 0:30:49I don't think you're going to find anything burgundy in April.
0:30:49 > 0:30:52- Trust me, we'll get burgundy. - Not in the fashion shops, no.
0:30:52 > 0:30:54We'll get burgundy. We'll get burgundy.
0:30:54 > 0:30:58For the sake of an easy life, Tony finally opts to get the
0:30:58 > 0:31:03dresses specially made in a style which suits all three bridesmaids.
0:31:05 > 0:31:08So, then, girls.
0:31:08 > 0:31:11Which is your favourite, Roz?
0:31:11 > 0:31:13- This one's my favourite.- Vicky?
0:31:13 > 0:31:16Shannon? So, you're happy with that one, then?
0:31:16 > 0:31:17I think so, yeah.
0:31:17 > 0:31:20But they are strapless. What will Pippa say?
0:31:20 > 0:31:23- Are you happy, though? - I'm happy, I like it.
0:31:23 > 0:31:26And at £300, they're not cheap.
0:31:26 > 0:31:30That's 11 grand of his budget, gone.
0:31:30 > 0:31:33It's the evening of Pippa's mystery hen night.
0:31:33 > 0:31:36Seriously, where are we going?
0:31:36 > 0:31:43Tony has organised for us all to go to the place where you had your first date.
0:31:43 > 0:31:46It's not a weekend in Amsterdam, though, is it?
0:31:46 > 0:31:49Still, it's a chance for Pippa to stop worrying and let her hair down.
0:31:49 > 0:31:54Do you want to be a good girl or a bad girl?
0:31:56 > 0:31:59Thank you. Look at me.
0:31:59 > 0:32:06I'm dressed up in a pink flashy band, L plates and a veil with my name on it and a tiara.
0:32:06 > 0:32:07I'm a princess.
0:32:07 > 0:32:10# She's getting married in the morning... #
0:32:10 > 0:32:14My sister, historically, cannot handle her alcohol.
0:32:26 > 0:32:28And I am ready to be a bride.
0:32:28 > 0:32:30But it's not long before it turns messy.
0:32:30 > 0:32:33And it's left to big sis to get her home.
0:32:37 > 0:32:40It's the morning after.
0:32:40 > 0:32:43Well, I couldn't look any rougher.
0:32:43 > 0:32:46Oh, my God. Now, I am actually getting married.
0:32:46 > 0:32:49I'm really looking forward to it now. I can't stop smiling.
0:32:49 > 0:32:51Let's do it already.
0:32:51 > 0:32:57But while Pippa can lie in bed, Tony only has four days left.
0:32:57 > 0:33:01Invitations have been sent and he's found a photographer.
0:33:01 > 0:33:03- See you Friday.- See you Friday. Good luck.- Thanks.
0:33:03 > 0:33:08But he still hasn't organised any transport.
0:33:08 > 0:33:12He's only got 900 quid left and is hoping to get two limos.
0:33:12 > 0:33:14It's a beast, isn't it?
0:33:16 > 0:33:19Very impressive.
0:33:19 > 0:33:23- Do you get any drinks in this, as well? - Yeah, we put complimentary bubbly in
0:33:23 > 0:33:25for you as well, on the wedding.
0:33:25 > 0:33:26I really like it.
0:33:26 > 0:33:30We'll take the Hummer and the Phantom.
0:33:30 > 0:33:31Could you do 850 for them both?
0:33:31 > 0:33:34875, yeah?
0:33:36 > 0:33:39- Go on then.- It is a good deal. That's a good deal.- Yeah.
0:33:39 > 0:33:41But that's a net price.
0:33:41 > 0:33:45You are looking at 875 plus VAT.
0:33:45 > 0:33:47BLEEP!
0:33:47 > 0:33:51- Basically.- The blood of the country, my man, isn't it? - What's the total?
0:33:53 > 0:33:55£1,028.12.
0:33:55 > 0:33:59Crap. I don't think we've got £1,000 for it. Gutted.
0:33:59 > 0:34:02I don't know what to say.
0:34:02 > 0:34:04We'll still take the Phantom though, definitely.
0:34:04 > 0:34:07- Yeah, that's fine.- Thanks very much.
0:34:07 > 0:34:13Shaken by the discovery that he needs to pay VAT, Tony decides to visit Teresa at Boreham House.
0:34:13 > 0:34:16She had quoted him £3,200.
0:34:16 > 0:34:19But did that include VAT?
0:34:19 > 0:34:21It is plus VAT.
0:34:21 > 0:34:26In the wedding industry generally it is plus, if you're VAT registered, it's plus VAT.
0:34:26 > 0:34:30Just generally, on everything.
0:34:30 > 0:34:32It's bad, but...
0:34:32 > 0:34:37It depends. You just have to check if everyone has registered for VAT, whether they are doing plus VAT.
0:34:37 > 0:34:40Photographer, videographer, if they've all then got plus VAT on them.
0:34:40 > 0:34:43You're... you're... normally it's...
0:34:43 > 0:34:45Yeah, you need to check. Yep.
0:34:46 > 0:34:52Once he factors in nearly £600 worth of VAT on the venue, he's £300 over budget.
0:34:52 > 0:34:55But this could be just the tip of the iceberg.
0:34:55 > 0:34:58If everything's excluding VAT, then I'm probably about three grand over budget.
0:34:58 > 0:35:04Back at home, the enormity of his financial crisis is starting to sink in.
0:35:04 > 0:35:08Tomorrow I'm going to have to call all of the...
0:35:08 > 0:35:12people that I've booked, to see if their prices were inclusive of VAT or not, what they quoted to me.
0:35:12 > 0:35:16If the people haven't included VAT in the prices and I have to cancel stuff,
0:35:16 > 0:35:20it's gone from being a great wedding to
0:35:20 > 0:35:23an average wedding, which is what I'd never wanted.
0:35:23 > 0:35:26I wanted it to be something special.
0:35:26 > 0:35:28I've just had enough.
0:35:32 > 0:35:40I'm just calling... the 898.95 that you quoted us, does that include VAT?
0:35:40 > 0:35:45Can you ask her if the £100 per dress included VAT?
0:35:45 > 0:35:50We were quoted £470 for the suits. I'm just seeing if that was inclusive of VAT?
0:35:50 > 0:35:53# You won't admit you love me... #
0:35:53 > 0:35:55Blissfully unaware of Tony's troubles,
0:35:55 > 0:35:58Pippa's doing some window shopping for table decorations.
0:35:58 > 0:36:00# Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps. #
0:36:00 > 0:36:02Something like that.
0:36:02 > 0:36:07That's quite pretty, with the floating thing in the water.
0:36:07 > 0:36:10But I would prefer something more of a statement.
0:36:10 > 0:36:13More extravagant.
0:36:13 > 0:36:15A bit more grand.
0:36:15 > 0:36:19So, you know, three pink tip calla lilies in a tall vase
0:36:19 > 0:36:24with some pretty sand, some mirrors, the candles.
0:36:24 > 0:36:28Mostly, I want my cake and eat it. I want it all in one thing.
0:36:28 > 0:36:33But to get his budget under control, Tony has got to make some ruthless cuts.
0:36:33 > 0:36:35Looks like we might be sacking off the table guff.
0:36:35 > 0:36:40What about the fish bowls with the... Are you going to bother?
0:36:40 > 0:36:43No. There's no point.
0:36:43 > 0:36:44Oh, look.
0:36:46 > 0:36:49Now, that is lovely.
0:36:52 > 0:36:56That is very pretty and it's a statement.
0:36:56 > 0:37:00People will walk in and there's no way you're not going to see it.
0:37:00 > 0:37:02Shame it's not the statement Tony's going to make.
0:37:02 > 0:37:04I want that, now.
0:37:06 > 0:37:08Let's just do a quick tot-up.
0:37:10 > 0:37:12We are still under budget.
0:37:12 > 0:37:16Thank feck for that. But that means no vodka luge or bucking bronco.
0:37:16 > 0:37:18So, they are...
0:37:18 > 0:37:24But Phil thinks there's no reason why Tony can't shell out for some of the extras himself.
0:37:24 > 0:37:27OK. You phone up Pippa and ask her. See what her reaction is.
0:37:27 > 0:37:31Just say, Tony wants to put £100 of our money into it
0:37:31 > 0:37:34because it is OUR money, it's not just mine.
0:37:34 > 0:37:37And if she went out and bought something for £100
0:37:37 > 0:37:41- without talking to me first, I would be- BLEEP- pissed off.
0:37:41 > 0:37:43But it's for the wedding.
0:37:43 > 0:37:46It's not for her, though. A vodka luge is not for her.
0:37:51 > 0:37:53- Not talking to me? - No. I'm pissed off.
0:38:00 > 0:38:05After a stressful few days, Tony finally has a moment to reflect.
0:38:05 > 0:38:08I'm trying...
0:38:08 > 0:38:11to write...
0:38:11 > 0:38:12my own vows.
0:38:15 > 0:38:20I think it would mean a lot to her to know that I've gone through the effort,
0:38:20 > 0:38:24to sit down and try and write my own vows to her,
0:38:24 > 0:38:28which I wouldn't have been able to do if we'd had the church wedding.
0:38:28 > 0:38:31I think that she will be upset
0:38:31 > 0:38:35that she's not got the church wedding that she always dreamed of.
0:38:35 > 0:38:38But with the vows, it gives me a great opportunity
0:38:38 > 0:38:42to make up for the fact that we've not got the church.
0:38:42 > 0:38:46Thinking about the vows has made him realise how much he misses her.
0:38:46 > 0:38:48It's really lonely, being in the house by myself.
0:38:48 > 0:38:50It's not... I hate it.
0:38:50 > 0:38:52It just...
0:38:52 > 0:38:54cements the fact
0:38:54 > 0:38:58that I do want to marry her and spend the rest of my life with her
0:38:58 > 0:39:00because it's horrible without her.
0:39:00 > 0:39:02It really is. I don't like it.
0:39:11 > 0:39:13It's the day before the wedding,
0:39:13 > 0:39:16which can mean only one thing.
0:39:16 > 0:39:19Hello, Pippa has come to try her wedding dress on today.
0:39:19 > 0:39:22She finally gets to see Tony's idea of a dream dress.
0:39:22 > 0:39:24The bodies are really short and I have...
0:39:24 > 0:39:28- They're not all really short. - Find one with a long body.- That one?
0:39:28 > 0:39:29That's not got a long body.
0:39:29 > 0:39:32- Nope.- That one?
0:39:32 > 0:39:33That's not got a body at all.
0:39:33 > 0:39:36I'm seeing lots of dresses that don't have buttons on.
0:39:36 > 0:39:38So I'm quite happy about that.
0:39:38 > 0:39:40I feel sick. Can we do this?
0:39:40 > 0:39:44Oh! Look at the train on it.
0:39:44 > 0:39:49Is that the dress? Wow!
0:39:49 > 0:39:51Do you like it?
0:39:51 > 0:39:53Um...
0:39:53 > 0:39:55Why has it got brown on it?
0:39:55 > 0:39:58It might be something to do with the colour scheme.
0:39:58 > 0:40:00Oh, my God, look at all the buttons!
0:40:00 > 0:40:03I think that's really pretty. It's going to look gorgeous.
0:40:03 > 0:40:06I know you don't like buttons, but you're not going to see them.
0:40:06 > 0:40:09But it's not like there's just ten, it goes down to the bottom.
0:40:09 > 0:40:12- They're dress buttons. - Mum, I'll just put it on, OK?
0:40:12 > 0:40:14It's a lovely dress.
0:40:14 > 0:40:16We'll see.
0:40:20 > 0:40:22She actually hates it, you can tell.
0:40:31 > 0:40:33Wow! I think that's gorgeous.
0:40:33 > 0:40:36- So do I. - I think that is stunning.
0:40:36 > 0:40:39What do you think?
0:40:39 > 0:40:41- I think my hips look huge. - No, it doesn't.
0:40:41 > 0:40:44Not at all. You've got no waist at all.
0:40:44 > 0:40:46You can't even see your hips.
0:40:50 > 0:40:52Is that your veil?
0:40:52 > 0:40:54Lovely, isn't it?
0:40:54 > 0:40:56It's got a sparkle in that.
0:41:13 > 0:41:16- What don't you like?- My hips.
0:41:16 > 0:41:18You can't tell.
0:41:18 > 0:41:20You keep saying that, but I can see them.
0:41:20 > 0:41:22I'm not stupid.
0:41:27 > 0:41:29What do you want to do?
0:41:29 > 0:41:32Take the colour off it for starters.
0:41:32 > 0:41:34You don't like the colour on it.
0:41:34 > 0:41:37The buttons go right down to the floor.
0:41:37 > 0:41:40And my hips look massive.
0:41:40 > 0:41:42I think you look lovely in it.
0:41:42 > 0:41:47Do you want me to ring Tony and say that you don't want to wear the dress?
0:41:47 > 0:41:49Tell him I don't like it.
0:41:51 > 0:41:53It's your choice. I can ring Tony.
0:41:53 > 0:41:55Why are we having a discussion? Ring him.
0:41:59 > 0:42:01It sounds really spoilt, Philippa.
0:42:01 > 0:42:03She doesn't.
0:42:05 > 0:42:08- I thought you came to support me. - You don't like the dress?
0:42:08 > 0:42:11- Do I like it? Do I look like I like it?- OK.
0:42:11 > 0:42:15So you telling me how small my waist is is not going to make me like it any more.
0:42:16 > 0:42:19- If I have to wear it, I have to wear it.- I'll ring him.
0:42:23 > 0:42:25I think you look stunning.
0:42:25 > 0:42:29Mum, you'd say that if I had a bin bag on my head.
0:42:29 > 0:42:31Do I look comfortable in it?
0:42:33 > 0:42:35Hello.
0:42:35 > 0:42:38- Hiya, it's Vicky.- Hiya.
0:42:38 > 0:42:39She don't like the dress, Tone.
0:42:39 > 0:42:44- So she's not going to wear it or... - I don't think she's going to wear it.
0:42:44 > 0:42:48- She thinks it makes her hips look really big.- Right.
0:42:48 > 0:42:51Can the lady in the shop not swap it for something else?
0:42:51 > 0:42:55- I don't think she can because it's made to measure, isn't it? - Oh, right.
0:42:55 > 0:42:57What do we do?
0:42:59 > 0:43:02- That's- BLEEP- ridiculous.
0:43:02 > 0:43:06Tony has failed in his most important task.
0:43:06 > 0:43:10Can Pippa's sister salvage the situation?
0:43:10 > 0:43:13Where do we get a dress the day before the wedding?
0:43:15 > 0:43:18- What size is it?- It would fit.
0:43:18 > 0:43:20Take it down, show her.
0:43:22 > 0:43:24What about this one?
0:43:24 > 0:43:27That looks so much better.
0:43:27 > 0:43:28Go away. Please.
0:43:31 > 0:43:35But it's not the dress she'd always dreamed of getting married in.
0:43:37 > 0:43:38That is better.
0:43:40 > 0:43:44See, now my hips don't look like Manhattan.
0:43:44 > 0:43:47- Well done.- Thank you very much.
0:43:47 > 0:43:49I don't even like lace, but that is pretty.
0:43:49 > 0:43:52It's pretty with that on it.
0:43:52 > 0:43:57- It is pretty. It's really cute. - I think it's lovely with that little thing on.- Yeah.
0:43:57 > 0:44:01It's quite Sound Of Music wedding dress, don't you think?
0:44:06 > 0:44:11Astonishingly, the kind shop owner agrees to take back the first dress.
0:44:11 > 0:44:13Lucky Tony will only have to pay the difference.
0:44:13 > 0:44:18- The balance is £71.50.- OK.
0:44:18 > 0:44:20- £71.50.- Yeah.
0:44:23 > 0:44:25What now?
0:44:25 > 0:44:28Yeah, we've got some money left in the budget.
0:44:28 > 0:44:32- OK, so she can have it?- Yeah.
0:44:32 > 0:44:34- OK, Vics.- OK, bye.
0:44:34 > 0:44:39- By pinching his pennies, Tony has allowed Pippa to get a dress she loves.- Sorted.
0:44:39 > 0:44:43The vodka luge now seems like a small sacrifice.
0:44:49 > 0:44:55Dress sorted, Tony still has a long "to do" list to go through.
0:44:55 > 0:44:57How much have we got left to do?
0:44:57 > 0:45:00We've got to get suits, dresses, rings, favours.
0:45:00 > 0:45:04We've got to make the favours and we've not got much time. Thank you.
0:45:18 > 0:45:21For the lady. My bit of bling as well. Perfect.
0:45:26 > 0:45:27Chocolate footballs or something for favours.
0:45:27 > 0:45:33Can I also have all of those sugared almonds?
0:45:33 > 0:45:36- Thanks very much for your help. Happy with that?- I'm happy.
0:45:39 > 0:45:41You're so weird. Let's go.
0:45:41 > 0:45:44It's the evening before the wedding.
0:45:44 > 0:45:48I assume he's probably having a quiet drink with the boys.
0:45:48 > 0:45:52Non-alcoholic, hopefully, cos he's crap with a hangover.
0:45:52 > 0:45:55I told him that if he drank
0:45:55 > 0:45:58and was hungover for our wedding day we would get it annulled.
0:45:58 > 0:46:01That will make him think twice... Won't it?
0:46:18 > 0:46:21Go on, Tony. Go on, son.
0:46:21 > 0:46:25Just one or two quiet beverages...
0:46:25 > 0:46:26Something like that.
0:46:37 > 0:46:4119 shots later, he finally calls it a night.
0:46:41 > 0:46:43What a wally!
0:46:45 > 0:46:48The big day is finally here,
0:46:48 > 0:46:51but someone's got a sore head...
0:46:56 > 0:46:59..and seems to be wearing a nightie.
0:46:59 > 0:47:01What the hell is a fat man dress?
0:47:04 > 0:47:05How you feeling?
0:47:05 > 0:47:07Awful.
0:47:07 > 0:47:10- Absolutely awful. - What's happening today?
0:47:10 > 0:47:13Yeah, my marriage. No, I'm not ready for today.
0:47:13 > 0:47:15I'd rather just stay in bed.
0:47:20 > 0:47:23Pippa, meanwhile, been awake since 6am.
0:47:23 > 0:47:26I'm so excited I might burst!
0:47:29 > 0:47:32I want to get my dress already.
0:47:37 > 0:47:38Stop, stop.
0:47:39 > 0:47:43It's 10.30 and with the wedding in just over three hours,
0:47:43 > 0:47:46Tony gets a rude awakening from his future father-in-law.
0:47:46 > 0:47:50Is it right to keep the dad on the steps?
0:47:50 > 0:47:52You're not still in bed.
0:47:52 > 0:47:55- Your bride is looking gorgeous already.- Is she?
0:47:55 > 0:47:59If I'd known you'd been drinking, I'd have brought a stick round and smacked you.
0:47:59 > 0:48:01- I'll get in the shower.- Good.
0:48:07 > 0:48:09I'm feeling really excited.
0:48:09 > 0:48:12I didn't expect to be doing his ironing, but never mind.
0:48:12 > 0:48:14Really looking forward to the rest of the day.
0:48:14 > 0:48:16Before the hustle and bustle starts today,
0:48:16 > 0:48:20I just wanted to say, genuinely, welcome to our family.
0:48:20 > 0:48:22Thanks very much.
0:48:22 > 0:48:24Have a good time today.
0:48:24 > 0:48:25Cheers, Pops.
0:48:25 > 0:48:29So are the bridesmaids' dresses simple enough to meet with the bride's approval?
0:48:29 > 0:48:31Oh, Vicky.
0:48:31 > 0:48:36They are lovely. Well, they are massive. I like that they are plain.
0:48:36 > 0:48:39They were the nicest ones that he let us try on.
0:48:39 > 0:48:43- They are pouffier than I expected. - We didn't remember them being as pouffy.
0:48:43 > 0:48:50They're lovely. Let me take a picture. Smile. Lovely.
0:48:50 > 0:48:52It's 12 o'clock.
0:48:52 > 0:48:56With two hours to go, the boys are getting suited and booted at their swanky venue.
0:48:59 > 0:49:01I feel really nervous for some reason.
0:49:01 > 0:49:03I just like... It's all happening now.
0:49:03 > 0:49:07- Done?- Thanks, Vics.- Yeah?- Yeah.
0:49:07 > 0:49:08OK.
0:49:10 > 0:49:12This is the moment we've been waiting for.
0:49:30 > 0:49:32- < Is he crying?- Yeah!
0:49:44 > 0:49:46Now I'm really nervous.
0:49:46 > 0:49:49Really, really, really nervous now.
0:49:56 > 0:49:57Still none the wiser?
0:49:57 > 0:50:01I still have no idea, it's so annoying!
0:50:03 > 0:50:07- Oh, my God, is that where I'm getting married?- This is where you're getting married.
0:50:07 > 0:50:11Holy crap! Look how pretty it is!
0:50:13 > 0:50:15That is beautiful.
0:50:17 > 0:50:20- Better than some boring old church. - Yeah.
0:50:23 > 0:50:25Oh, hasn't he done well?
0:50:27 > 0:50:29I'm so excited now.
0:50:44 > 0:50:46I'm so excited.
0:50:56 > 0:50:58Oh!
0:51:00 > 0:51:02I don't want to look.
0:51:02 > 0:51:04I don't want to, I'll cry.

0:51:16 > 0:51:23# No hero in her sky
0:51:25 > 0:51:28# Can't take my eyes off you... #
0:51:28 > 0:51:32What I'd like you to do is shake hands with the man who will be your son-in-law very shortly.
0:51:32 > 0:51:40- Give your daughter a kiss for luck. - You all right?- OK.
0:51:42 > 0:51:45- Right. I, Tony.- I, Tony.
0:51:45 > 0:51:48- Do take thee, Philippa. - Do take thee, Philippa.

0:51:52 > 0:51:55- To be my lawful wedded wife. - I, Philippa.- I, Philippa.
0:51:55 > 0:51:56Do take thee, Tony.
0:51:56 > 0:52:00- Do take thee, Tony. - To be my lawful wedded husband.
0:52:00 > 0:52:01To be my lawful wedded husband.
0:52:01 > 0:52:06- You've chosen to make some additional personal promises to each other.- Have we?
0:52:06 > 0:52:08Didn't you know that?
0:52:08 > 0:52:13I promise to love you, support you and be true to you always through the good times and bad.
0:52:13 > 0:52:17I'll be there to wipe away your tears of sadness and your tears of joy.
0:52:17 > 0:52:20Whatever life may bring us, I will always love you,
0:52:20 > 0:52:21these promises I make to you today forever.
0:52:21 > 0:52:23You are a truly special man
0:52:23 > 0:52:26and I feel like the luckiest woman alive.
0:52:35 > 0:52:38It's beautiful. It's sparkly.
0:52:38 > 0:52:44It gives me great pleasure to say that you're now husband and wife together.
0:52:44 > 0:52:47Would you like to seal the contract in the usual way?
0:52:55 > 0:52:57And again.
0:53:03 > 0:53:06Everything was perfect. I couldn't have asked for anything else.
0:53:08 > 0:53:10I'm so happy.
0:53:24 > 0:53:28Before Tony met Pippa, Tony was just a wreck.
0:53:28 > 0:53:31A drunken sex pest, I've got written down here.
0:53:31 > 0:53:33LAUGHTER
0:53:33 > 0:53:39The biggest thank you is to Pippa because you've given me my best friend back.
0:53:39 > 0:53:43At this point there would usually be flowers for the mums,
0:53:43 > 0:53:47but Pippa didn't actually like the dress I picked for her
0:53:47 > 0:53:51so the additional budget got eaten up on alterations.
0:53:51 > 0:53:53ALL: Ooh!
0:53:56 > 0:54:00In all honesty, he has worked tirelessly for the last three weeks.
0:54:00 > 0:54:05He wanted it to be your perfect day, Pippa. Not for him, but for you.
0:54:08 > 0:54:12Right from the start, I said it will be a boys' night.
0:54:12 > 0:54:15It's going to be more like a stag do than a wedding.
0:54:15 > 0:54:17So we will wait and see.
0:54:17 > 0:54:21I know what's coming, but I don't know if everybody else does yet.
0:54:21 > 0:54:25I'm sure Pippa doesn't, cos I don't think she'd be walking round with a smile on her face.
0:54:25 > 0:54:31- What's everyone laughing at? - You're going to see in a minute.
0:54:36 > 0:54:38- What is he doing?!- Bucking bronco.
0:54:38 > 0:54:40Look at him!
0:54:43 > 0:54:46Oh, my...
0:54:46 > 0:54:49- Are you going to have a go? - Yeah, I want a go now!
0:54:49 > 0:54:52From traditional bride to Rawhide.
0:54:52 > 0:54:54Yee-ha!
0:54:58 > 0:55:03I would have done an elegant, classy, to the point, no hair out of place -
0:55:03 > 0:55:10look at me now - no hair out of place, succinct production.
0:55:10 > 0:55:14And Tony has done all of that for the day.
0:55:14 > 0:55:19For the evening he's got fun, everybody is smiling...
0:55:19 > 0:55:22I think it's perfect.
0:55:22 > 0:55:25He's done a better job than I possibly would have... Maybe.
0:55:48 > 0:55:52Because my sister is such a Bridezilla about stuff,
0:55:52 > 0:55:57I really did think that no one could do anything she would be happy with.
0:55:57 > 0:56:02But I really have to take back everything I ever said about him.
0:56:02 > 0:56:04I think he's done everything that she could have wanted.
0:56:10 > 0:56:12That was a heart!
0:56:15 > 0:56:18- Perfect day.- Awesome.- Perfect.
0:56:18 > 0:56:20Perfect day and awesome. Awesomely perfect.
0:56:20 > 0:56:22- Awesomely perfect.- Happy with that.
