0:00:02 > 0:00:07- Luke and Gemma are madly in love. - I couldn't ever imagine being with anybody else.

0:00:07 > 0:00:12They've been together for two years and can't wait to get married.

0:00:12 > 0:00:18But weddings don't come cheap and with a six-month-old baby they have other priorities.

0:00:18 > 0:00:25- You just don't have the money. - So, to speed things up, we're giving them £12,000 for their big day.

0:00:25 > 0:00:28This'll be a full-time job!

0:00:28 > 0:00:30That's not good! That's no good.

0:00:30 > 0:00:37But there's a catch - they've both agreed in the presence of a lawyer that Luke will organise the wedding.

0:00:37 > 0:00:40- Oh, my God.- Oh, my God.

0:00:40 > 0:00:45- They'll have no contact. - I can't wait to pin him down! - And Gemma won't know a thing

0:00:45 > 0:00:50- until the big day in three weeks' time.- You've ruined it, boy!

0:00:50 > 0:00:56- Three weeks apart will push their relationship to the limit. - It's really getting to me now.

0:00:56 > 0:01:01- Will he score an own goal?- I'll go mental if it involves Aston Villa.

0:01:01 > 0:01:04I'll get stick, but I'd like it.

0:01:04 > 0:01:06Will he prove to be man or mouse?

0:01:06 > 0:01:09# I'm getting married on Sunday! #

0:01:09 > 0:01:12Will he trip up before the altar?

0:01:12 > 0:01:15He knows I'd be this upset about it!

0:01:15 > 0:01:21- Can this man give this woman a day she'll never forget? - A nightmare. Absolute nightmare.

0:01:21 > 0:01:27Everything else is perfect, it's just this. One thing thrown in at the last minute.

0:01:42 > 0:01:49Today 22-year-old mum Gemma is moving out of the family home she shares with Luke and baby Evie.

0:01:49 > 0:01:53I'm a bit apprehensive, a bit worried.

0:01:53 > 0:01:55I'm quite scared.

0:01:55 > 0:01:58Lots of different emotions at the moment.

0:01:58 > 0:02:05- When customer services adviser Gemma met Luke at work, the attraction was instant.- I saw him walk in.

0:02:05 > 0:02:09It's a bit cliched, but it was love at first sight. I fancied him.

0:02:09 > 0:02:14In an office environment, you have to get your claws in straight away,

0:02:14 > 0:02:18so I let all the girls know that he was mine. "Mine!"

0:02:18 > 0:02:20No, no, no!

0:02:20 > 0:02:24- No, Gemma, Gemma, please. - Oh, you hate it, don't you?

0:02:24 > 0:02:29- She terrified me at first. She was so hyper.- He was very quiet.

0:02:29 > 0:02:33- We hardly spoke. - I violated you.- Yeah.

0:02:33 > 0:02:3816 months later, baby Evie was born and Luke made an impromptu decision.

0:02:38 > 0:02:44It was two days before Christmas. I rang my brother for help. "What can I get her for Christmas?"

0:02:44 > 0:02:48And I said, "Why not propose?" Tongue in cheek.

0:02:48 > 0:02:50Brilliant idea!

0:02:50 > 0:02:56He sort of took that from me as the green light to go ahead and do that.

0:02:56 > 0:03:01- Had you not been thinking about it before?- A little bit, yeah.

0:03:01 > 0:03:05At their home in the Cotswolds, it's clear who wears the trousers.

0:03:07 > 0:03:09I am the boss of the relationship.

0:03:09 > 0:03:13- I'm very particular about things. - I can't do anything right.

0:03:13 > 0:03:17I've got quite high standards and I like it done my way.

0:03:17 > 0:03:22Luke, what is that? Your hanging skills are terrible.

0:03:22 > 0:03:28- It'll dry on the line.- Luke... - And if he doesn't get it right, she doesn't hold back.

0:03:28 > 0:03:32She just gives you this look and it's so deep. A filthy look.

0:03:32 > 0:03:39She just did it there! You just feel like a piece of... dirt on the floor.

0:03:39 > 0:03:44He may complain, but in truth Luke is quite happy to do as he's told.

0:03:44 > 0:03:47You're a follower, not a leader.

0:03:47 > 0:03:49- What?- You like to be led.

0:03:49 > 0:03:53Or you need to be led, actually, I should say.

0:03:53 > 0:03:59I do get pushed. My brother calls me a carpet because people walk all over me.

0:03:59 > 0:04:06- Whoo!- So how is Luke going to cope with organising the biggest day of Gemma's life?

0:04:06 > 0:04:10My friends and family think I'm crazy for handing over control.

0:04:10 > 0:04:15If I miss something out, I'm buggered. She will go ballistic.

0:04:15 > 0:04:19It's time for Luke and Gemma to say their goodbyes.

0:04:19 > 0:04:21This is it, then.

0:04:21 > 0:04:25- Be good.- I love you. - It'll be all right. I promise.

0:04:25 > 0:04:29The next time they see each other will be at the altar.

0:04:31 > 0:04:37- I miss you already. Love you. - Love you, too.- Forever and ever. ..I feel horrible.

0:04:37 > 0:04:42I do feel quite upset. It's starting to sink in now what we're doing.

0:04:42 > 0:04:46Three weeks away from her is really gonna kill me.

0:04:46 > 0:04:52For the next three weeks, Gemma and Evie will be staying with Gemma's mum and sister Rachel.

0:04:52 > 0:04:56I do want it to look classy and elegant.

0:04:56 > 0:04:58Contemporary is what I want.

0:04:58 > 0:05:00Oh, God...

0:05:01 > 0:05:06- Oh, goodness. - I think I must be mad.

0:05:06 > 0:05:10Back at home, Luke's busy setting up his new headquarters.

0:05:10 > 0:05:15Never mind the furniture removal, you've got a wedding to plan.

0:05:15 > 0:05:17Without Gemma to point him,

0:05:17 > 0:05:25I think Luke will probably struggle, really. I don't think he's one to make lots of decisions himself.

0:05:25 > 0:05:31Luckily for Luke, his best man is older brother Bryan, who's used to making decisions for him.

0:05:31 > 0:05:35- Party time!- Since their father died when they were young,

0:05:35 > 0:05:38Bryan's assumed a paternal role.

0:05:38 > 0:05:41'Bryan's very strong-minded.'

0:05:41 > 0:05:44I'm worried he's going to throw Luke off course.

0:05:44 > 0:05:48'He'll be pushing me to do stuff I don't particularly want to do.'

0:05:48 > 0:05:55- It'll be hard work.- First thing on the agenda is the local pub... for a brainstorm.

0:05:55 > 0:05:59Luke has made up his mind on one thing - his colour scheme.

0:05:59 > 0:06:04- Colours?- Claret and blue. - Hmm. Not exactly conventional wedding colours.

0:06:04 > 0:06:09Me and my brother, our family, are really big Aston Villa football fans.

0:06:09 > 0:06:15I'd love to get the Villa colours, a little bit of claret and blue. Definitely.

0:06:15 > 0:06:21- Traditional bride Gemma can't think of anything worse.- I definitely do not want it football-related

0:06:21 > 0:06:23in the slightest! Nothing.

0:06:23 > 0:06:28- But it's not just the colour scheme that's a worry.- Dancers.

0:06:28 > 0:06:32Luke wants to put on a big show starring him and his two brothers.

0:06:32 > 0:06:37What you see a lot on the shows on TV, Britain's Got Talent,

0:06:37 > 0:06:41you, me and Mark walk out and do some dancing.

0:06:41 > 0:06:42We need...

0:06:46 > 0:06:50I'm not 100% on that idea, but we'll give it a go.

0:06:52 > 0:06:58Day 2 and the lads are turning their attention to where the wedding will take place.

0:06:58 > 0:07:05- I'll start ringing venues.- Luke wants the ceremony and reception to happen in the same place.

0:07:05 > 0:07:11- Top of the list is his football club's stadium.- Hi, I'm looking to get married at Villa Park...

0:07:11 > 0:07:18The worst nightmare is that he's going to think it'll be great in the grounds of the football ground.

0:07:18 > 0:07:20That would just be awful.

0:07:20 > 0:07:27Villa Park, she'd go ballistic, but...I'd like it there, so we'll just have to see.

0:07:27 > 0:07:30All right. See you tomorrow. Bye.

0:07:30 > 0:07:33- Villa Park's on.- Hey!

0:07:33 > 0:07:37Give it three weeks and this'll be a full-time job.

0:07:37 > 0:07:44But after calling some other venues, Luke the learner wedding planner has lost track of his appointments.

0:07:44 > 0:07:50- That was tomorrow at 10.30. - That's today at 10.30.- Today? - It's at 10.30 today.

0:07:50 > 0:07:55What's that? Is that them? Who's this? Who have we rang?

0:07:55 > 0:07:57Did we ring them?

0:07:57 > 0:08:03- Who's this? Why don't you write things down?- Shut up. I need to think.

0:08:04 > 0:08:06Idiot!

0:08:06 > 0:08:10He's a nightmare because he hasn't written anything down

0:08:10 > 0:08:15or when he has it's someone here, someone here...some there, some here.

0:08:15 > 0:08:18- He's getting aerated.- Shut up.

0:08:20 > 0:08:26The pressure's starting to tell for him. And a little bit for me. I'm used to taking more control.

0:08:26 > 0:08:29Taking a back step is killing me!

0:08:29 > 0:08:35It's been hard work scraping together a couple of appointments, but it's time to hit the road.

0:08:35 > 0:08:39- Get the post code. - Luke's made an unusual decision.

0:08:39 > 0:08:43Finding somewhere to marry isn't his top priority.

0:08:43 > 0:08:45Sourcing table decorations is.

0:08:45 > 0:08:48# You shall have a fishy on a little dishy

0:08:48 > 0:08:50# You shall have a fishy when the boat comes in... #

0:08:50 > 0:08:55We'd like bowls in the centre of the table with possibly some fish.

0:08:55 > 0:08:59- Yeah, blue or claret... - Aston Villa! Yeah!

0:08:59 > 0:09:04- There's the female. There's the mix of colours.- Awesome.

0:09:04 > 0:09:10- I love that. I like... Yeah. You can see the Villa colours. - That is perfect.

0:09:10 > 0:09:14With the sideshow sorted, their next task is, finally, the main event.

0:09:14 > 0:09:17There it is. Just there.

0:09:17 > 0:09:23Aston Villa's stadium is in Birmingham, 50 miles from home, and a logistical nightmare,

0:09:23 > 0:09:28but for these die-hard football fans, it's a small price to pay.

0:09:28 > 0:09:32I want the bridesmaids to be this sort of colour.

0:09:32 > 0:09:35And the fish are these colours.

0:09:35 > 0:09:42Gemma's chief bridesmaid is her best friend Tessa. She has no faith at all in the groom.

0:09:42 > 0:09:47Luke's a complete drongo. He couldn't organise a piss-up in a brewery.

0:09:49 > 0:09:53I'll go mental if he does anything to do with Aston Villa.

0:09:53 > 0:09:57- I really will.- Could he be persuaded to do Aston Villa colours?

0:09:57 > 0:10:01- Absolutely not.- You sure? - Yes, I'm very sure.

0:10:01 > 0:10:09I was thinking of getting the page boy to walk down the aisle with the rings on something like that.

0:10:09 > 0:10:10I quite like this.

0:10:10 > 0:10:17- I'd look a trollop, walking up the aisle in claret and blue!- He thought you wanted to look like Jordan.

0:10:17 > 0:10:19I dislike either, very largely,

0:10:19 > 0:10:25but if I was put in a situation of having to choose, it's Jordan all the way.

0:10:25 > 0:10:29£12 well spent, I think. Definitely.

0:10:29 > 0:10:34So that's a few fish and one pillow sorted. Time to focus on the venue.

0:10:34 > 0:10:36This is the Trinity '82.

0:10:36 > 0:10:42This part is the trinity element. And this is the '82, which is a casual bar area.

0:10:42 > 0:10:50If we had the ceremony here, we'd set it up theatre-style with a top table for the registrar.

0:10:50 > 0:10:54I didn't expect it to look so... nice.

0:10:54 > 0:10:58It's hard to explain, but it's really nice.

0:10:58 > 0:10:59The church is really small.

0:10:59 > 0:11:04Gemma knows where she wants to marry and it's definitely not modern.

0:11:04 > 0:11:07- It's so old.- It's gorgeous.

0:11:07 > 0:11:11Tidmington Chapel in Warwickshire dates back to the 13th century.

0:11:11 > 0:11:16I just want it to be very intimate, just my close family and friends,

0:11:16 > 0:11:19so that would be the perfect location. It's so romantic.

0:11:23 > 0:11:25Go on.

0:11:27 > 0:11:31- It's so lovely.- You could have your gospel choir at the back.

0:11:31 > 0:11:33- Oh, no, I don't want that.- No.

0:11:33 > 0:11:36TESSA HUMS WEDDING MARCH

0:11:42 > 0:11:43Whoo!

0:11:43 > 0:11:47It's just so cute. It's perfect.

0:11:47 > 0:11:50It's not that I'm religious and want to do it in front of God,

0:11:50 > 0:11:56but He happens to have nice buildings to get married in, so... we have to go with Him.

0:11:56 > 0:12:01Unfortunately for Gemma, Luke worships at a different altar.

0:12:01 > 0:12:04The sun's shining for you as well.

0:12:04 > 0:12:06It's really, really nice.

0:12:06 > 0:12:11# It's coming home, it's coming Football's coming home... #

0:12:11 > 0:12:15- When we actually come out, would it be...?- Yes.- OK.

0:12:15 > 0:12:19All your guests can have a good look at the stadium.

0:12:19 > 0:12:23Look at the views! That is beautiful for your photo opportunity.

0:12:23 > 0:12:27In the long distance you've got the hills and trees. I love it.

0:12:27 > 0:12:34If you wanted to go down to the changing rooms or pitch side, you can do that.

0:12:34 > 0:12:40- It'll be really nice.- I'm getting excited. Hang our kits up and get out of our wedding stuff.

0:12:41 > 0:12:46This is something I'd love. It's just...Gemma would kill me!

0:12:46 > 0:12:49Villa Park. I'd get married here in a flash.

0:12:49 > 0:12:52Not wanting to be killed on his wedding day,

0:12:52 > 0:12:56sensible Luke is checking out a location closer to home.

0:12:57 > 0:13:01It's not his dream venue, but it's not Gemma's either.

0:13:01 > 0:13:05Ettington Park Hotel isn't small or intimate,

0:13:05 > 0:13:09but it is, in one sense at least, spiritual.

0:13:09 > 0:13:14- Is it supposed to be haunted or is that a myth?- It's the most haunted hotel in the UK.

0:13:14 > 0:13:21- This is one of the most haunted rooms.- Is that why you knock or is it in case someone's in?

0:13:21 > 0:13:23It has a knock back!

0:13:23 > 0:13:28This is the Pritchard Suite. He was the architect for the hotel.

0:13:28 > 0:13:32Apparently, he hung himself over this beam.

0:13:32 > 0:13:35Let's get home!

0:13:35 > 0:13:42- It is quite cold.- It is starting to get a bit cold, yeah. That's the air conditioning, mate!

0:13:42 > 0:13:47Fortunately, the room that is licensed for weddings is ghost-free.

0:13:47 > 0:13:51Of course, football fanatic Luke wants to add his own touches.

0:13:51 > 0:13:57If we just go claret, blue, claret, blue all the way down... Claret, blue.

0:13:57 > 0:13:59- Aston Villa?- Yeah!

0:14:01 > 0:14:06I really like it. I do. Beautiful ground, perfect for photos.

0:14:07 > 0:14:10Practically a church in there.

0:14:10 > 0:14:17It ticks all the boxes and indecisive Luke makes a decision... not to make any decisions just yet.

0:14:17 > 0:14:18I have to have a think about it.

0:14:18 > 0:14:23A toss-up between a haunted house or a football stadium. How romantic(!)

0:14:23 > 0:14:25He loves me, he loves me not.

0:14:25 > 0:14:32- He loves me, he loves me not, he loves me...he loves me not! It's not meant to be!- Shut up!

0:14:34 > 0:14:40The boys want to get their invitations out quickly, so have put aside time to draw up a guest list.

0:14:40 > 0:14:45- Luke...- Yes, Bryan?- If you can spell their name on here, they can come.

0:14:45 > 0:14:50- That's funny. I don't think we should invite Gemma, then. - She's not coming.

0:14:50 > 0:14:53What about Gemma's side, then?

0:14:55 > 0:14:58I've forgotten their names.

0:14:58 > 0:15:02Obviously, her mum's essential and her sisters.

0:15:02 > 0:15:05Is there any other family?

0:15:06 > 0:15:11I can't be bothered thinking about people. I don't know anyone outside.

0:15:11 > 0:15:16I've just gone blank on a name. Her other mate from...

0:15:16 > 0:15:18He would be...

0:15:18 > 0:15:22Aww. Oh, I tell you who I'd like to come.

0:15:22 > 0:15:25I've forgotten their name now.

0:15:25 > 0:15:28# That's not my name That's not my name... #

0:15:28 > 0:15:31- Aww! - # That's not my name... #

0:15:31 > 0:15:33I forgot all their names!

0:15:33 > 0:15:38I don't think Luke's too in on Gemma's network of people.

0:15:38 > 0:15:45I'll just have to go into her work or something and take a blank invite and ask them their name!

0:15:46 > 0:15:48Step one...

0:15:48 > 0:15:53Unaware she may not have anyone she knows at her wedding,

0:15:53 > 0:15:57Gemma's top concern is getting in shape for the big day.

0:15:57 > 0:15:59Luckily, Tessa's on hand.

0:15:59 > 0:16:04Hold it. OK, so you have to roll down here. Like that.

0:16:04 > 0:16:07THEY LAUGH

0:16:07 > 0:16:12Tessa might not be an exercise guru, but she can keep Gemma motivated.

0:16:12 > 0:16:17- I'll get some cans.- Good plan! I'll have a lager, please.

0:16:17 > 0:16:18Ohh...

0:16:18 > 0:16:23- These are weights. We can drink these if you do 20.- Yes!

0:16:23 > 0:16:29- I had a personal trainer for two weeks.- Did you?- Yeah. There's so many things you can do on the ball.

0:16:29 > 0:16:31- Really?- Yeah.

0:16:31 > 0:16:34Maybe Luke should be here.

0:16:34 > 0:16:39- That's quite good.- Feels nice. - Keep going. I'm having a Kit Kat.

0:16:40 > 0:16:43You've got it! That'll be £20, please.

0:16:43 > 0:16:46- Crisps, cheese and salad cream? - Sounds good.

0:16:46 > 0:16:54- Oh, I've only got Wotsits! - Let's just have a chocolate bar. - You want a Gold bar?- Yeah.- OK.

0:16:55 > 0:17:01It's halfway through the first week and Luke still hasn't made any major decisions.

0:17:01 > 0:17:05Big brother Bryan encourages him to start small.

0:17:05 > 0:17:07# If you like it

0:17:07 > 0:17:09# Then you should have put a ring on it... #

0:17:13 > 0:17:18But he's overwhelmed by the responsibility of choosing a ring.

0:17:18 > 0:17:20Ohh!

0:17:20 > 0:17:24It's just decisions, decisions, decisions.

0:17:24 > 0:17:28The decision is simple - buy it here or you don't.

0:17:28 > 0:17:34We've got to close things off now. You've got to be ruthless. Decide, go in there, buy it.

0:17:34 > 0:17:40Go in there and say, "If I do it now, can you do it for 400, please? Please."

0:17:41 > 0:17:47This is what I need to do. I just need to give him a kick start to go and do things.

0:17:47 > 0:17:52- Start making decisions.- Done it. - You've done something, mate!

0:17:52 > 0:17:58- I've got rings and a pillow! - You've done something! - I spent money!

0:17:58 > 0:18:04Luke spent £415 on two gold rings. Buoyed up by his new-found confidence,

0:18:04 > 0:18:08he's finally ready to cut a deal with one of the venues.

0:18:08 > 0:18:15Is there anything at all you could do to knock that down, please, to about £5,000?

0:18:16 > 0:18:22Luke's negotiating skills may be coming along, but with half the budget at stake,

0:18:22 > 0:18:28- Bryan finds it hard to leave him to it.- I'll discuss that in a second. - Bedrooms, everything.

0:18:31 > 0:18:34What about first thing tomorrow morning?

0:18:35 > 0:18:39(Early. Eight o'clock.) What's that?

0:18:39 > 0:18:42- You can't deal with pressure. - It's just you.

0:18:42 > 0:18:49- Thank you, Jenny. Bye-bye now. - Of the two venues, Villa Park is cheaper and it IS Luke's dream,

0:18:49 > 0:18:54- but there are other factors. - It's a lot cheaper, but it doesn't have the rooms,

0:18:54 > 0:19:01- travel is huge. Ahh! - He needs to make his mind up, but, true to form,

0:19:01 > 0:19:06- decision dodger Luke plays for extra time.- I'll have a think about it.

0:19:08 > 0:19:12Five hours later and, back at home, Luke is still deliberating.

0:19:12 > 0:19:18If we did go ahead with that one, it saves moving about and worrying.

0:19:18 > 0:19:21But Bryan's patience is wearing thin.

0:19:21 > 0:19:24We have to make that decision now.

0:19:24 > 0:19:28The colours that we're doing, could that be a trade off?

0:19:28 > 0:19:32We have Ettington Park, but with all the Villa involved.

0:19:32 > 0:19:37Whereas at Aston Villa, and then with Aston Villa colours,

0:19:37 > 0:19:40is that Aston Villa overload?

0:19:40 > 0:19:45- Do you know what? Ettington Park. - Is that done deal? Let's do it.

0:19:45 > 0:19:47Back of the net!

0:19:47 > 0:19:52He's finally made a decision and spent £5,500 on the venue.

0:19:52 > 0:19:55Meanwhile, Gemma's made a decision of her own.

0:19:55 > 0:20:00- I'm actually going to be a wife. - Yeah, you'll be Mr and Mrs.

0:20:00 > 0:20:03I'm going to be Nick Alcott's wife.

0:20:05 > 0:20:09- I'll have to change my email address.- And your actual name!

0:20:15 > 0:20:20The way you said it! "I'll have to change my email address!"

0:20:21 > 0:20:26That would be my first priority(!) Or maybe your passport and driving licence!

0:20:32 > 0:20:38They're only halfway through the first week and already the boys are running out of steam.

0:20:38 > 0:20:44Day 4 in the Big Brother house. Bryan and Luke have not yet come to blows.

0:20:44 > 0:20:50If they talk about weddings again, they will punch each other's head in.

0:20:50 > 0:20:53Oh, God, this is so draining.

0:20:53 > 0:20:58This is harder than work. This is harder than work.

0:20:58 > 0:21:02He's got a fish, a pillow and a haunted house. How hard can it be?

0:21:02 > 0:21:09But Luke has no time to wallow. The boys head to a bridal shop to face the toughest challenge of all.

0:21:09 > 0:21:11That's all right.

0:21:11 > 0:21:17With no football paraphernalia in sight, Luke is well out of his comfort zone.

0:21:18 > 0:21:23We're looking for something, possibly a little bit of bling here.

0:21:23 > 0:21:28I don't want it...not too tight, but quite... It's hard to explain.

0:21:28 > 0:21:30Do you want to just...?

0:21:30 > 0:21:34Luckily, Bryan is focused on what's important.

0:21:34 > 0:21:38Make her boobs look bigger, bum look smaller, tummy look smaller.

0:21:38 > 0:21:44Gemma's also hitting the shops. She has no say in her wedding dress, but a girl can dream.

0:21:44 > 0:21:49Hello! OK, I want it really, really crisp white.

0:21:49 > 0:21:53And, em, quite elegant, really. Quite simple.

0:21:53 > 0:21:59- A fairly classic shape?- Absolutely. - With a modern twist to it? - That would be perfect.

0:22:02 > 0:22:04I really am getting married!

0:22:04 > 0:22:06That's good on a small bust.

0:22:06 > 0:22:11- She has got a small bust. - What cup is she?- I don't know. C?

0:22:11 > 0:22:15C's all right. I'd be happy with a pair of Cs.

0:22:18 > 0:22:21Let's not talk about breasts. Please.

0:22:24 > 0:22:26Oh, my God!

0:22:27 > 0:22:31Oh, my God. It's beautiful.

0:22:31 > 0:22:33And my boobs are huge!

0:22:33 > 0:22:35You get this.

0:22:38 > 0:22:41Yes! Yes, yes, yes. I'm in love.

0:22:41 > 0:22:43- It's gorgeous, isn't it?- Amazing.

0:22:43 > 0:22:46I love it. And it all follows you.

0:22:47 > 0:22:49It follows!

0:22:53 > 0:22:57- What would you give? Marks out of 10.- Definitely 8.

0:22:57 > 0:23:038 out of 10 is not enough for Gemma, so the shop assistant suggests something more contemporary.

0:23:03 > 0:23:05Do you love?

0:23:05 > 0:23:09- Mm, yeah, it's OK. - It feels...- Light.- ..lighter.

0:23:09 > 0:23:11Yeah.

0:23:11 > 0:23:15Luke's looking at a dress that's uncannily similar.

0:23:16 > 0:23:20- What do you think?- I don't like that one. I don't like it.

0:23:20 > 0:23:24- I do like it. - That's the best one.

0:23:24 > 0:23:26It looks like a cake.

0:23:26 > 0:23:30It's like roses, isn't it? Like a rose petal.

0:23:30 > 0:23:36Like a toilet holder. It's the quilting effect I'm not sure about.

0:23:36 > 0:23:39The crunchiness is cool. I do like it.

0:23:39 > 0:23:44- But will it go with Luke's colour scheme?- Look, claret and blue.

0:23:44 > 0:23:48- How cool is that?- Fabulous. - We're ridiculous!

0:23:48 > 0:23:53It's a definite thumbs up. So he's going for it? Is he heck!

0:23:53 > 0:23:58This decision dodger wants to see some more dresses.

0:23:58 > 0:24:02Just as well because Gemma's found her inner rock chick.

0:24:02 > 0:24:06# Nice day for a white wedding... #

0:24:06 > 0:24:08I absolutely love it!

0:24:09 > 0:24:14- This has blown the other one out of the water.- Really?- I love it.

0:24:14 > 0:24:18- Quite Gothic, in a way. - With the black.- And I like it.

0:24:18 > 0:24:22My dad's a biker and it's quite...rocky.

0:24:22 > 0:24:25In a way, it's got a rocky feel.

0:24:25 > 0:24:27And I absolutely love it.

0:24:27 > 0:24:32While Gemma's gone alternative, Luke loves a traditional dress.

0:24:32 > 0:24:38I love it. That looks medieval. It's a bit more old sort of fashioned sort of style.

0:24:38 > 0:24:41Not too modern. Yes, like a vintage look.

0:24:41 > 0:24:47See, right, I thought I would like very classic, not too much detailing

0:24:47 > 0:24:54and just very simple, but now I want to make more of a statement. I really want people to notice me!

0:24:54 > 0:24:57- It's just so striking.- Yes. - Beautiful.

0:24:57 > 0:25:04To give you the idea of the bustle, the dress would look like that, again with that medieval look.

0:25:04 > 0:25:08When she pulled it up, it did look Victorian.

0:25:08 > 0:25:10Henry VIII sort of style.

0:25:10 > 0:25:17So Henry VIII was Victorian? History may not be Luke's strong point, but suddenly decisions are.

0:25:17 > 0:25:22I love that one. I don't think I need to see any more.

0:25:22 > 0:25:26- Or does he?- Could you just try this one and then that'll be it? Sorry.

0:25:26 > 0:25:31They're both nice, aren't they? That's really thrown me out.

0:25:31 > 0:25:33It's so difficult!

0:25:34 > 0:25:37I'm gonna sleep on it tonight.

0:25:37 > 0:25:39No change there, then.

0:25:41 > 0:25:47It's been a tough week and Luke's taking a break to design invitations.

0:25:48 > 0:25:54The other things I'm just buying. This is something I'm completely creating from scratch.

0:25:54 > 0:25:57People can see that I CAN do stuff.

0:25:57 > 0:25:59It's all my idea. I love it.

0:25:59 > 0:26:04For once Luke's in control and Bryan's input is not welcome.

0:26:04 > 0:26:11You've put a border in. I said specifically I don't want a border. Might as well start from scratch.

0:26:11 > 0:26:16It was all there, Bryan, and you fiddle about. We had that fancy writing.

0:26:16 > 0:26:21You are an idiot. I had it all sorted and you've ruined it, Bryan!

0:26:21 > 0:26:24It was done. Oh, my God...

0:26:24 > 0:26:27I can't believe you did that.

0:26:27 > 0:26:32With so much resistance, Bryan takes the hint and leaves,

0:26:32 > 0:26:38but if Luke thought everything would be easier without him, he hadn't taken his printer into account.

0:26:38 > 0:26:41It flippin' didn't work!

0:26:42 > 0:26:44Didn't work.

0:26:46 > 0:26:49No, that didn't work either.

0:26:53 > 0:26:56Please work!

0:26:58 > 0:27:00That didn't work.

0:27:02 > 0:27:07It's there, it's there. Come on. ..Printing. Come on.

0:27:08 > 0:27:11Oh, so close! So close!

0:27:13 > 0:27:15That's worse!

0:27:15 > 0:27:17Oh, no!

0:27:23 > 0:27:27Come on! ..I'm proud of myself. I've actually achieved something.

0:27:28 > 0:27:35I love the colours. As soon as Gemma sees the claret and blue, she's going to know the scheme.

0:27:38 > 0:27:44A week into the wedding planning and Luke's finally found the confidence to shake off Bryan.

0:27:44 > 0:27:49- Hello again.- Hello. What can we do for you?

0:27:49 > 0:27:52The two dresses, I need to see them again.

0:27:52 > 0:27:58With no-one to lean on, maybe this groom will start calling the shots.

0:27:58 > 0:28:02OK. Can you try the other one on? Thank you.

0:28:02 > 0:28:07He may not be able to ask Bryan for advice, but old habits die hard.

0:28:07 > 0:28:13- What's your personal favourite? - I do like the other one, but Jane loves this one.

0:28:13 > 0:28:15- It's 50/50.- It is.

0:28:15 > 0:28:17No...!

0:28:17 > 0:28:23Luke is struggling to choose a dress, but Gemma has no choice. She has to wear whatever Luke picks.

0:28:23 > 0:28:27I'm not wearing it if it's horrible. You wouldn't wear a horrible dress.

0:28:27 > 0:28:31I'm not looking like a doughnut on my wedding day. No way.

0:28:31 > 0:28:37That is the main part of the day. Everyone says, "What did the bride look like, what did she wear?"

0:28:37 > 0:28:42Before "What was the cake like, what was the venue like?" It's always about the bride first.

0:28:42 > 0:28:46If everyone's laughing at me for the wrong reasons, I'm not wearing it.

0:28:46 > 0:28:53I wouldn't want to be in Luke's spot at all. It must be very difficult to choose...

0:28:53 > 0:28:55Especially if you're Luke.

0:28:55 > 0:28:57- It's hard.- It is.- I love them both.

0:28:57 > 0:29:03Well, he is trying to choose between two classic, ivory-coloured, embroidered dresses

0:29:03 > 0:29:05that are virtually identical.

0:29:05 > 0:29:10- Sorry, guys. Try that one on one more time.- This is normal. - I've got that one in my head.

0:29:10 > 0:29:13Gemma has her mum to comfort her.

0:29:13 > 0:29:20- You can get a horrible dress, but if it's well-made and looks so different on...- Shut up, Mum.

0:29:22 > 0:29:28Two hours and several dress changes later, Luke has finally made up his mind.

0:29:28 > 0:29:31- I'll go with the other one. - Well done.

0:29:31 > 0:29:33He shoots and he scores!

0:29:33 > 0:29:36- Thank you so much.- Thank you.

0:29:36 > 0:29:39Luke has spent 650 quid on Gemma's dress.

0:29:39 > 0:29:44Together with the venue, rings, flowers, photographer and registrar,

0:29:44 > 0:29:48he has now forked out over two-thirds of his budget.

0:29:50 > 0:29:54All of this hard work is beginning to take its toll.

0:29:57 > 0:30:03I've put a lot of sleepless nights, blood, sweat, the lot, into this wedding.

0:30:03 > 0:30:05I'm thinking about it 24/7.

0:30:05 > 0:30:09It's just as long as she's... the stuff with her is perfect.

0:30:09 > 0:30:15That does mean a lot to me, knowing that she's happy and she's looking forward to it and seeing me again.

0:30:15 > 0:30:19That is the most important... I just miss her so much.

0:30:19 > 0:30:22It's the hardest thing I've ever had to do in my life.

0:30:22 > 0:30:27# They call her love, love, love, love, love

0:30:29 > 0:30:34# They call her love, love, love, love, love... #

0:30:35 > 0:30:3912 days to go and Gemma receives her wedding invitation.

0:30:39 > 0:30:41Ah!

0:30:41 > 0:30:43Oh, my God!

0:30:43 > 0:30:49"Together with our parents, Luke Nathan Alcott invites you to share in our love and happiness

0:30:49 > 0:30:54- "as we exchange vows of marriage and begin our new life together." - Wow!- Wow!

0:30:54 > 0:30:59In the excitement, Gemma has failed to notice Luke's choice of colour.

0:30:59 > 0:31:03- Amazing! He maade it himself! - Has he?- This has been stuck on.

0:31:03 > 0:31:07The problem is staring her in the face but she still hasn't twigged.

0:31:07 > 0:31:14I'm really excited about the big day. It's really happening. It doesn't give me any clue to what...

0:31:14 > 0:31:19It doesn't give you any clue to whether there's a theme or not, apart from the...colours.

0:31:19 > 0:31:21Ding-dong!

0:31:21 > 0:31:23Claret and blue.

0:31:24 > 0:31:27Oh, dear.

0:31:27 > 0:31:29I've only just noticed that.

0:31:29 > 0:31:31Oh, my God!

0:31:31 > 0:31:34Oh, I really hope not.

0:31:36 > 0:31:41- That's not good.- That's Villa colours on there - claret and blue.

0:31:42 > 0:31:46- Look.- Oh, my goodness! - LAUGHTER

0:31:46 > 0:31:49- Get married in a dress that's claret...- It's not even funny.

0:31:49 > 0:31:53It'll look tasteless, tacky and horrible. I'll be really angry.

0:31:53 > 0:31:59- Not even the Villa anthem as you walk down the aisle? - No. You're annoying me now. Shut up!

0:31:59 > 0:32:05It won't be those colours. It'll be Bryan winding you up. It'll just be your invitation with those colours.

0:32:05 > 0:32:09- It'll look horrible.- Yeah, it will look quite nasty.- It will.

0:32:09 > 0:32:13There's a time and a place for football and it's not at my wedding.

0:32:13 > 0:32:15I quite like blue and burgundy!

0:32:15 > 0:32:21When she's going back up the aisle, everyone'll be chanting, "One-nil, one-nil!

0:32:21 > 0:32:23"Who are ya?"

0:32:23 > 0:32:27- It's gonna be funny. - It will be funny if it's football.

0:32:27 > 0:32:32- Why are you expecting it to be funny?- We're just making light of a serious situation.

0:32:33 > 0:32:39- You're making light of MY serious situation.- It'll be lovely.- Not if it's claret and blue, it won't.

0:32:39 > 0:32:41# You're not singing any more! #

0:32:41 > 0:32:46Today, Luke is swapping football for Footloose.

0:32:46 > 0:32:49It's the first rehearsal for his big dance showpiece.

0:32:52 > 0:32:57This is one of the things I'm looking forward to most. All the other stuff is girly. This is me.

0:32:57 > 0:33:00I'm really excited. I can't wait.

0:33:00 > 0:33:06It's like when you're a kid and you can't sleep the night before Christmas.

0:33:06 > 0:33:09I haven't had that feeling for a long time.

0:33:09 > 0:33:14His brothers have reluctantly agreed to back his strange choice of entertainment

0:33:14 > 0:33:19without really knowing what they're letting themselves in for. Oh, heck!

0:33:19 > 0:33:21Is this what we've got to do?

0:33:25 > 0:33:27Oh, this is gonna look awesome.

0:33:27 > 0:33:30# Everybody... #

0:33:30 > 0:33:33It's soon clear they're in trouble.

0:33:33 > 0:33:37# Backstreet's back all right... #

0:33:37 > 0:33:40Between his DIY dance routine and his colour scheme,

0:33:40 > 0:33:45Gemma's dream for an elegant wedding is going to stay just that - a dream.

0:33:45 > 0:33:49# Now throw your hands up in the air

0:33:50 > 0:33:52# Backstreet's back all right! #

0:33:57 > 0:34:01At Tessa's place, the stressed-out bride has reached breaking point.

0:34:01 > 0:34:07Just...usually I'm in control of every situation and I'm not and it's really hard to adapt to.

0:34:07 > 0:34:10You can only sit and wonder. That's the worst thing.

0:34:10 > 0:34:14It doesn't seem real because I don't know any of the plans.

0:34:14 > 0:34:17I can't look forward to them because I don't know what they are.

0:34:17 > 0:34:23You imagine this picture in your head, but you're not sure if it'll be the same as the picture,

0:34:23 > 0:34:27so you can't get excited about a picture that may not be the same.

0:34:27 > 0:34:31At night-time sometimes you think, "I'm gonna dream about this."

0:34:31 > 0:34:35I always try and dream about what I'll look like on my wedding day,

0:34:35 > 0:34:40but I've just got this blank picture, thinking, "God, what AM I gonna look like?"

0:34:40 > 0:34:46I just wanna know cos it really is hard and it's so stressful. It's really getting to me now.

0:34:51 > 0:34:55It's the end of week two and Luke is facing his biggest challenge yet -

0:34:55 > 0:34:58getting the bridesmaids to wear claret and blue.

0:34:58 > 0:35:04Up until now, Tessa has been convinced the colours on the invitation were a wind-up.

0:35:04 > 0:35:06# Here come the girls... #

0:35:06 > 0:35:10Shall we reveal the colour? Shall we reveal the colour?

0:35:10 > 0:35:12Yeah, reveal the colour.

0:35:15 > 0:35:19Oh, my God! Do you understand what that means?

0:35:19 > 0:35:23That is Aston Villa. She will go mad. No way. You can't do Aston Villa.

0:35:23 > 0:35:25I'll do what I want.

0:35:27 > 0:35:29Right, you hold this one.

0:35:29 > 0:35:33- They're disgusting.- Yeah. - I'm not wearing that.

0:35:34 > 0:35:37Look at the state of it!

0:35:37 > 0:35:40This one's nice. I like this shorter version of it.

0:35:40 > 0:35:47- That is so much nicer.- You're not going to a prom. You're going to a wedding.- This is a prom dress, Luke.

0:35:47 > 0:35:51The girls hate the dress and they're determined to fight it out.

0:35:51 > 0:35:52You're ruining my day.

0:35:52 > 0:35:57No way. I'm not wearing it. I'm not wearing it. No way.

0:35:57 > 0:36:00# I'm begging you for mercy... #

0:36:01 > 0:36:03- Do you wanna see, Luke?- Yes, please.

0:36:03 > 0:36:06LAUGHTER

0:36:07 > 0:36:11- If you laugh, it means you don't like it.- It looks really nice.

0:36:11 > 0:36:14- No, it doesn't. - It does. It looks really nice.

0:36:16 > 0:36:20- Can we not just try the short one? - No.- Can we just try it on?

0:36:20 > 0:36:23You don't even know what it looks like.

0:36:24 > 0:36:26It's all flimsy.

0:36:26 > 0:36:29The besieged groom caves in under pressure.

0:36:29 > 0:36:34I'll get the short one and you can try it. If I don't like it, I'll tell you straight.

0:36:34 > 0:36:39- I'm being honest with you. I really like that. - You can't like it. It's disgusting!

0:36:39 > 0:36:41Ready? How's that one?

0:36:42 > 0:36:44This one is so much...

0:36:44 > 0:36:49If any, this one is better, but they are both dreadful.

0:36:49 > 0:36:54- I don't like them much.- You prefer the other ones?- Don't make us wear those other ones.

0:36:54 > 0:36:58Well done, Luke. The carpet's become a man. Well, nearly.

0:36:58 > 0:37:03I just texted Bryan. I said, "What do you think for bridesmaids? Long or short?"

0:37:03 > 0:37:06He texted back "long", so it's his decision.

0:37:06 > 0:37:11But now he faces a new problem. Rachel's dress is too big.

0:37:11 > 0:37:17- We've got the dresses.- Are you sure they're the right sizes?- I know she's a 12. You're a 10, I think.

0:37:17 > 0:37:22- The girls sense an opening. - Please can we have a short one? - Two short ones. Please, Luke.

0:37:22 > 0:37:26Luke, look. You see, Luke? Luke, look.

0:37:26 > 0:37:28He won't even look.

0:37:28 > 0:37:33Luke does his best to ignore them but he can't ignore that there's no size 10 on the rack.

0:37:33 > 0:37:35He can't even find them!

0:37:35 > 0:37:37Result!

0:37:37 > 0:37:40But he's not about to give in.

0:37:40 > 0:37:42Oh, it's a 10. Excuse me.

0:37:42 > 0:37:48Sorry, I need a size 10 in this, but the only one is on the model over there.

0:37:48 > 0:37:53- It's OK, don't check. - No, ignore them because I'm choosing it.- No, no, no.

0:37:53 > 0:37:57I don't know what to do. What shall we do? Quick, quick.

0:37:57 > 0:38:03He's asked you to take that dress off the mannequin. I need you to say somebody else has just bought that.

0:38:03 > 0:38:09- Is this the dress you wanted?- Yeah, that's the one.- Somebody wants to try it on in the fitting room.- OK.

0:38:09 > 0:38:12- Oh, you didn't tell someone... - What was that?

0:38:13 > 0:38:16- No, they didn't! - LAUGHTER

0:38:20 > 0:38:24- I'm not gonna wear it.- I'm not wearing it, so it's a waste of money.

0:38:27 > 0:38:32With only a week to go till the wedding, the groom is getting ready for his stag do.

0:38:32 > 0:38:36I don't trust the best man at all. Not at all.

0:38:36 > 0:38:38I'm absolutely crapping it.

0:38:41 > 0:38:44It's great, isn't it?

0:38:44 > 0:38:49# We hate the Blues and we're gonna show it

0:38:49 > 0:38:53# We hate the Blues and we BEEP know it

0:38:53 > 0:38:58# With Spinksy and Birchy, Alan McInally

0:38:58 > 0:39:02# They're the boys who're gonna do us fine, do us fine... #

0:39:02 > 0:39:07- It's back to reality and starting to feel like a bloke and not a woman.- Yeah.

0:39:07 > 0:39:13I was buckling under a bit and getting a bit upset and this is me back to being a bloke again.

0:39:13 > 0:39:16Right then, boys.

0:39:16 > 0:39:18# Right, boys, right, boys... #

0:39:18 > 0:39:20The boys have arrived in Birmingham.

0:39:20 > 0:39:25To save his pennies, Luke has decided the stag do will be on his mates.

0:39:25 > 0:39:28So it's a tenner each, boys.

0:39:28 > 0:39:32- I'm dreading it.- A 95% chance that he's gonna be sick tonight.

0:39:32 > 0:39:35Definitely up for a bad night!

0:39:35 > 0:39:41I won't remember it if we get drunk. What happens in Birmingham stays in Birmingham.

0:39:41 > 0:39:43Come on, Luke.

0:39:43 > 0:39:47After a tour of Birmingham's wildest night spots,

0:39:47 > 0:39:49Luke is finally drunk.

0:39:49 > 0:39:52Time for Bryan to reveal his evil challenge.

0:39:53 > 0:39:58One minute and 45 seconds to clear your mouth of these.

0:39:59 > 0:40:01- Go.- Go.

0:40:01 > 0:40:07Three crackers in a minute and 45 seconds. These boys sure know how to party(!)

0:40:09 > 0:40:12Two, one... CHEERING

0:40:13 > 0:40:18With the party games over, Luke can finally enjoy a proper stag night.

0:40:21 > 0:40:26Really tipsy. It's quite hard getting quite harassed with women.

0:40:28 > 0:40:31Just tried to ignore it, to be honest.

0:40:33 > 0:40:37I really, really miss Gemma. She's my main priority and...

0:40:38 > 0:40:40Only one week to go.

0:40:46 > 0:40:51With all the important items paid for, Luke decides to take stock of his budget.

0:40:51 > 0:40:57While his stag night cost him nothing, he has earmarked 600 quid for Gemma's hen do,

0:40:57 > 0:41:00leaving him less than 400 in the pot.

0:41:00 > 0:41:06With decorations, Gemma's shoes and dresses for the flower girls still to buy,

0:41:06 > 0:41:08he comes to a radical decision.

0:41:08 > 0:41:12I had to cut back somehow. I really did.

0:41:12 > 0:41:17I've lost an usher. She's gonna have to lose two flower girls, her two younger sisters.

0:41:17 > 0:41:23Once again, it's totally the wrong decision and Gemma's got wind of it on the family grapevine.

0:41:23 > 0:41:30- I don't understand.- It's a cutback. - Why is that a cutback? Two little dresses would not have cost much.

0:41:30 > 0:41:34A cutback is don't have such extravagant table decorations.

0:41:34 > 0:41:39A cutback is not upsetting my two baby sisters. It's out of order.

0:41:39 > 0:41:42They're upset. They're two little girls. It's not their fault.

0:41:42 > 0:41:46They were crying when Dad told them. That's really horrible.

0:41:46 > 0:41:49It means a lot to them to be bridesmaids.

0:41:49 > 0:41:55- If he knew you were here like this, he wouldn't have made that decision. - He knows I'd be this upset!

0:41:55 > 0:42:01I know he's probably thinking, "The rest of it will be lovely," but I'm really upset about it.

0:42:01 > 0:42:07Seeing how upset all his daughters are, Gemma's dad summons Luke for a man-to-man chat.

0:42:09 > 0:42:13I'm really worried. I've never been like this before.

0:42:13 > 0:42:17It's gonna be like a father-to-son sort of chat, isn't it?

0:42:19 > 0:42:23# We will, we will rock you... #

0:42:24 > 0:42:29I had to tell the girls, my little daughters. And they were like, "Oh, no!"

0:42:29 > 0:42:33I knew it was a thing that was important to Gemma as well.

0:42:33 > 0:42:38It's not as if I didn't want them to do it. It was just the budget.

0:42:38 > 0:42:44- But I've got enough in the budget for the two girls.- You've made me happy sorting them girls out. Good.

0:42:44 > 0:42:48Just say that it's not that I didn't want to.

0:42:48 > 0:42:51It's just been tight on budget.

0:42:51 > 0:42:56So it's back to the shop for two more dresses, but Luke's troubles are far from over.

0:42:56 > 0:43:00Oh, it's a lot more expensive. Oh, no.

0:43:03 > 0:43:08They're not the same colour and they haven't got all their sizes. Too many bloody bridesmaids!

0:43:08 > 0:43:13It's too much of a nightmare. Everything's been sorted and now this has been thrown at me.

0:43:13 > 0:43:17- I can reserve them for you at Banbury. Shall I do that?- Yeah.

0:43:17 > 0:43:23It's a nightmare, absolute nightmare. Everything else is perfect. It's just this.

0:43:23 > 0:43:28One thing that's been thrown in at the last minute. I just wish I'd put my foot down and said no.

0:43:34 > 0:43:37MUSIC: "Baby Love" by The Supremes

0:43:41 > 0:43:46Today is Gemma's hen and Luke has planned a full programme of activities

0:43:46 > 0:43:50for his stressed bride and her friends -

0:43:50 > 0:43:52an hour of gentle exercise...

0:43:52 > 0:43:55followed by a relaxing facial

0:43:55 > 0:43:59and a posh lunch at an exclusive restaurant.

0:43:59 > 0:44:04But Luke's credit is well and truly crunched. It's time for a chat with Gemma's dad.

0:44:04 > 0:44:07- Me and my brothers had a discussion.- Yes.

0:44:07 > 0:44:11Maybe you could put some money behind the bar to contribute?

0:44:11 > 0:44:13I might be able to arrange summat.

0:44:13 > 0:44:17Not much. Just so you can pay for my drinks for the night!

0:44:17 > 0:44:21- I'm not really cheeky(!)- We'll sort that out for you. Don't you worry.

0:44:21 > 0:44:25I fancy letting myself go that night and getting a bit drunk!

0:44:25 > 0:44:30You won't be able to perform and consummate your wedding. You won't be able to manage it.

0:44:30 > 0:44:35Back at the hen, Dad's concerns are also his daughter's.

0:44:35 > 0:44:40- I've been celibate for three weeks. My God!- What is gonna happen?

0:44:40 > 0:44:44If you genuinely had saved yourself for your man, I'd be scared now.

0:44:44 > 0:44:49I'd be counting down the hours, thinking, "Oh, my God, what do I do?" Horrible.

0:44:49 > 0:44:54I'm glad I don't feel like that. I certainly don't. I can't wait to pin him down.

0:44:54 > 0:45:00- Would you do it anywhere?- Yeah. - Even if it's at the back of the church? No?- Yeah.

0:45:00 > 0:45:06Tut-tut! Gemma wants to bring out the man in Luke, but he's getting in touch with his inner child.

0:45:06 > 0:45:08- HIGH VOICE: - Hello.

0:45:10 > 0:45:13# I'm getting married on Sunday! #

0:45:14 > 0:45:18I love you, Gemma, and I miss you. I hope you're having a good hen do.

0:45:18 > 0:45:22Don't worry, Luke. Gemma's definitely having a good time.

0:45:22 > 0:45:25# Yo, I'll tell you what I want, what I really, really want

0:45:25 > 0:45:27# So tell me what you want, what you really, really want

0:45:27 > 0:45:29# I wanna, I wanna, I wanna, I wanna

0:45:29 > 0:45:32# Really, really, really wanna zigazig ha

0:45:32 > 0:45:34# If you wanna be my lover... #

0:45:36 > 0:45:38We love you!

0:45:38 > 0:45:45I'm just looking forward to seeing him. It's been really hard. I didn't think it would be, but it has.

0:45:45 > 0:45:47- HIGH VOICE: - I love you, Gemma.

0:45:48 > 0:45:51It's the day before the wedding.

0:45:51 > 0:45:56In Coventry, Gemma is about to see the dress Luke spent days choosing for her.

0:45:56 > 0:46:01- First impressions aren't encouraging.- I hope we're not getting married round here.

0:46:01 > 0:46:07- I suppose bits like that do have a homely feel to them. - What, smashed glass?

0:46:08 > 0:46:12I feel sick. I feel really nervous and sick. And the area is horrible.

0:46:12 > 0:46:16So I feel very nervous that it's not gonna be a very nice shop.

0:46:16 > 0:46:19Why would Luke come here? Why?

0:46:19 > 0:46:22- Oh, my God, there it is! - Oh, my God!

0:46:22 > 0:46:27- Look how random that is! Why would you set up a wedding dress shop there?- Strange, isn't it?

0:46:27 > 0:46:32But it's not the location that matters. For Gemma, it's all about the dress.

0:46:32 > 0:46:35If she doesn't like it, she won't wear it.

0:46:35 > 0:46:42- You want to see the dress now, don't you?- Gosh, OK. I feel a little bit sick. Have you got a toilet?

0:46:42 > 0:46:45Gemma wanted to make a statement with her dress.

0:46:45 > 0:46:48Will Luke's classic, but safe choice win her over?

0:46:51 > 0:46:56- Oh, that's gorgeous. - Beautiful, isn't it?

0:46:56 > 0:46:59- Ready, Gemma?- Yeah, I think so.

0:46:59 > 0:47:01Oh, my goodness!

0:47:01 > 0:47:03It's stunning, isn't it?

0:47:03 > 0:47:08- It's amazing.- I don't think you've ever looked that slim, Gemma. - Shut up, Mum!

0:47:08 > 0:47:11Oh, I love it. I absolutely love it!

0:47:11 > 0:47:17- I just love this top bit. It sucks me right in.- Yeah. - I love it.- It's amazing.

0:47:17 > 0:47:20- You're not having that music?- Yeah.

0:47:20 > 0:47:22SINGS "Match Of The Day" THEME

0:47:25 > 0:47:27LAUGHTER

0:47:27 > 0:47:32Luke may have scored with Gemma's dress, but how will she feel about the rest of his choices?

0:47:32 > 0:47:37She's got fish on the table instead of flowers and claret and blue everywhere,

0:47:37 > 0:47:39even on the cake.

0:47:39 > 0:47:46With less than 24 hours to go, the boys are busy putting the finishing touches to the venue.

0:47:46 > 0:47:50But one of Luke's bright ideas hasn't turned out so well.

0:47:50 > 0:47:53It's a nightmare getting these bloody fish in here.

0:47:53 > 0:47:59Bryan and me are a bit disappointed. The fish was pink. It's a shame not having the claret and blue.

0:47:59 > 0:48:05But it's five o'clock now. I'm getting married tomorrow. We can't sort anything like that out now.

0:48:05 > 0:48:10Despite the last-minute hitches, there's still time for a moment of reflection.

0:48:10 > 0:48:17'I think I've learnt for myself that I can achieve things if I set myself a goal,

0:48:17 > 0:48:21'whereas in the past, when things have got hard, I've walked away.

0:48:21 > 0:48:24'If I really work hard, I can do it.'

0:48:24 > 0:48:30Just to see her face and see her smile, it'll just be amazing, absolutely amazing.

0:48:30 > 0:48:35It probably will bring a tear to my eye, although if I do, Bryan will slap me round the head.

0:48:35 > 0:48:37I've got to hold it together.

0:48:44 > 0:48:49- After three weeks of separation, the big day has finally arrived. - Oh, my God!

0:48:49 > 0:48:54- For Gemma, the first surprise is a wedding present from Luke.- Aw!

0:48:54 > 0:49:00- "Today I give you my heart." - Oh, wow!- It's lovely, isn't it?

0:49:00 > 0:49:07- That's beautiful. - "Today I give you my heart." That's really sweet.- I know.- Oh, my God!

0:49:07 > 0:49:09# Backstreet's back all right! #

0:49:09 > 0:49:15He'll be saying his vows in less than three hours, but Luke's more focused on his footwork.

0:49:15 > 0:49:18One, two, three. One, two, three.

0:49:18 > 0:49:21# Brothers, sisters, everybody sing... #

0:49:21 > 0:49:23You do this bit, then you do this.

0:49:23 > 0:49:25# Backstreet's back all right! #

0:49:25 > 0:49:28For Gemma, things are finally coming together.

0:49:28 > 0:49:31I love it. I love the volume. I love it. Thank you.

0:49:31 > 0:49:34And the surprises keep on coming.

0:49:34 > 0:49:37Oh, my God! Look!

0:49:37 > 0:49:39Wow!

0:49:39 > 0:49:41They are so beautiful!

0:49:41 > 0:49:43Is that mine?

0:49:43 > 0:49:45It must be.

0:49:45 > 0:49:51Oh, my God, they are beautiful! Now I'm wondering about the colour scheme.

0:49:51 > 0:49:58You would presume, now she's seen the flowers, she knows the colour of our dresses, but she hasn't cottoned on.

0:49:58 > 0:50:03I love those flowers. Well, we know, girls, it's not claret and blue, surely.

0:50:03 > 0:50:06Could you do this for me, Bryan?

0:50:06 > 0:50:09# On a glorious day

0:50:09 > 0:50:14# Now I want you to save me again... #

0:50:14 > 0:50:16As the boys leave for the venue,

0:50:16 > 0:50:22Gemma is about to see the claret bridesmaids' dresses for the first time.

0:50:22 > 0:50:24- OK?- No.

0:50:26 > 0:50:28- OK?- OK. Now.- Yeah?

0:50:29 > 0:50:32Ohhhh!

0:50:32 > 0:50:36You look beautiful. They are lovely.

0:50:36 > 0:50:38I know. Oh, my God!

0:50:38 > 0:50:41It's so exciting, isn't it?

0:50:41 > 0:50:45It still hasn't clicked, but outside, Gemma's car has arrived.

0:50:46 > 0:50:50And there's no mistaking the colour scheme now.

0:50:50 > 0:50:53Oh, my God! Wow, claret and blue!

0:50:53 > 0:50:55Bloody hell!

0:50:55 > 0:51:01With the cat out of the bag, the bride is wondering if she's being taken to the Aston Villa stadium.

0:51:01 > 0:51:04Oh, dear me. Dear, dear me!

0:51:04 > 0:51:07At the venue, it's a waiting game.

0:51:07 > 0:51:11Gemma is half an hour late and Luke is fighting back the tears.

0:51:11 > 0:51:12- All right?- I can't cry.

0:51:15 > 0:51:18THEY LAUGH NERVOUSLY

0:51:18 > 0:51:20Oh, my God!

0:51:22 > 0:51:27Oh, it's so beautiful! I wouldn't have thought of this.

0:51:27 > 0:51:29Here we go.

0:51:34 > 0:51:37Oh, my legs aren't working.

0:51:37 > 0:51:39Ohh!

0:51:41 > 0:51:45ORGAN MUSIC: "Here Comes The Bride"

0:52:00 > 0:52:05Now, the vows that Luke and Gemma are about to make are solemn and binding.

0:52:06 > 0:52:11- Gemma, I give you this ring. - Gemma, I give you this ring.

0:52:11 > 0:52:14- As a token of our marriage. - As a token of our marriage.

0:52:14 > 0:52:17- And a symbol of our love. - And a symbol of our love.

0:52:17 > 0:52:22- And I will always be beside you. - And I will always be beside you.

0:52:22 > 0:52:26- Luke, I give you this ring. - Luke, I give you this ring.

0:52:26 > 0:52:29- As a token of our marriage. - As a token of our marriage.

0:52:29 > 0:52:32- And a symbol of our love. - And a symbol of our love.

0:52:32 > 0:52:39It's now with very great pleasure that I'm able to state that you are now lawfully husband and wife.

0:52:39 > 0:52:41And you may now kiss the bride.

0:52:41 > 0:52:46# You and me, we can ride on a star

0:52:46 > 0:52:48# If you stay with me, girl

0:52:48 > 0:52:52# We can rule the world... #

0:52:52 > 0:52:58Gemma may not have got her church wedding, but Luke has a surprise for her.

0:52:58 > 0:53:03He's arranged for their marriage to be blessed in the Ettington Park Chapel.

0:53:03 > 0:53:07- This is wicked! - LAUGHTER - Sorry.

0:53:07 > 0:53:14All praise and blessing to you, God of love. May your blessing come in full upon Luke and Gemma.

0:53:14 > 0:53:17Those whom God has joined together,

0:53:17 > 0:53:19let no man divide.

0:53:19 > 0:53:23'He's been brilliant. I cannot fault him at all.'

0:53:23 > 0:53:28It's better than the little church I loved. It's just made the whole day perfect.

0:53:28 > 0:53:35To finish like that was just absolutely wonderful. From a mum's point of view, it really was.

0:53:35 > 0:53:37Luke's really done us all proud.

0:53:37 > 0:53:43And it's time for kick-off. Gemma's given a tour of the reception hall in all its Aston Villa glory.

0:53:43 > 0:53:47Even the tables are named after football players.

0:53:47 > 0:53:50- Oh, my God!- There's a little fish. - Isn't it gonna splash?

0:53:50 > 0:53:55- It is a bit weird.- Weird? It's claret and blue.- I know. It's cool.

0:53:55 > 0:53:58- Who's Paul McGrath? - He's a Villa legend.- OK.

0:53:58 > 0:54:02Obviously, this is me in my Villa kit. And these are sparkling.

0:54:02 > 0:54:06Yeah, I can see that they're sparkling. That's amazing.

0:54:06 > 0:54:11This day has been completely you. Everything has been really special.

0:54:11 > 0:54:16The fact that you've put that much effort and thought and attention to detail,

0:54:16 > 0:54:21it doesn't matter if it's football or not, it's perfect. There are still bits of me in there.

0:54:21 > 0:54:24Up the Villa! Come on, the Villa!

0:54:25 > 0:54:27Right, guys. Two, three...

0:54:27 > 0:54:30CHEERING

0:54:30 > 0:54:33I think everybody is impressed with the venue.

0:54:33 > 0:54:38I heard a lot of people go, "Wow!" when she walked down the aisle with the dress.

0:54:38 > 0:54:41Luke has ultimately made his own choices.

0:54:42 > 0:54:45Thank you very much. Wow!

0:54:45 > 0:54:51If Gemma had organised it, there's no way it would have been as fantastic as this.

0:54:51 > 0:54:57I did call him a drongo before I knew he could organise something this size so I 100% take it back. He's amazing.

0:54:57 > 0:54:59How do you do it?

0:54:59 > 0:55:04- Put the knife in.- I've only prepared the wedding. I don't know how to DO the wedding!

0:55:04 > 0:55:07Pulled it together today brilliantly.

0:55:07 > 0:55:12He's a good lad. I'll look after him. Don't you worry about that.

0:55:14 > 0:55:16CHEERING

0:55:19 > 0:55:21Yeah!

0:55:21 > 0:55:27'It's been an amazing day. I cannot believe I've been able to achieve this.'

0:55:27 > 0:55:31But I've worked for it and I'm proud of myself.

0:55:31 > 0:55:33MUSIC: "High" by The Lighthouse Family

0:55:37 > 0:55:40I think I've proved that men can do that girly stuff

0:55:40 > 0:55:44and I could probably do a better job than Gemma. Simple as that.

0:55:44 > 0:55:51Men can do the girly stuff, Luke, but perhaps, sometimes, they really shouldn't.

0:56:29 > 0:56:34Really good. You've done such a good job. Honestly, I'm shocked.

0:56:34 > 0:56:37You're gonna be doing everything organisation-wise now.

0:56:37 > 0:56:41- I'm just gonna sit back and relax. - I bloody ain't!

0:56:41 > 0:56:45# All you people, can't you see, can't you see

0:56:45 > 0:56:49# How your love's affecting our reality?

0:56:54 > 0:56:59# And that can make you larger than life... #
