0:00:02 > 0:00:04THIS PROGRAMME CONTAINS SOME STRONG LANGUAGE

0:00:04 > 0:00:07Five years of Don't Tell The Bride. 48 brave brides...

0:00:07 > 0:00:1048 game-on grooms.

0:00:10 > 0:00:13- Dozens of dress disasters... - Don't panic!

0:00:13 > 0:00:16..and one near miss.

0:00:16 > 0:00:18Please just get on the plane.

0:00:18 > 0:00:21I'm not coming. Game over.

0:00:21 > 0:00:26Now we're back for a whole new roller-coaster ride...

0:00:27 > 0:00:32..as 12 more blushing brides leave the biggest day of their lives...

0:00:32 > 0:00:33Oh, my God!

0:00:33 > 0:00:36..in the hands of the men they love.

0:00:36 > 0:00:39- The grooms get three weeks... - No way!

0:00:39 > 0:00:42- ..and £12,000...- 12 Gs, man!

0:00:42 > 0:00:44- Oh, my God! - Are you ready, mate?- All ready!

0:00:44 > 0:00:48..and the brides get no say in how it's spent.

0:00:48 > 0:00:49I just don't want to do this any more.

0:00:49 > 0:00:53- So saddle up for tears... - Hope he got the right one!

0:00:53 > 0:00:57- ..tantrums...- Why the hell are we at Thorpe Park on my wedding day?

0:00:57 > 0:01:00..and total meltdowns.

0:01:00 > 0:01:04I can't even get the wedding planned. I can't... I can't do anything.

0:01:04 > 0:01:08Tonight, the pressure's on for tomboy Anna...

0:01:08 > 0:01:11This is the biggest decision I've ever had to make.

0:01:11 > 0:01:14- ..to give her bride-to-be Sian... - I'm getting nervous now.

0:01:14 > 0:01:17..the classy civil wedding of her dreams.

0:01:17 > 0:01:20- Oh, my God!- We'll be divorced before the day's even over.

0:01:20 > 0:01:23But how will Anna's tomboyish brain...

0:01:23 > 0:01:25She's got big boobs.

0:01:25 > 0:01:27..cope in such a girly world?

0:01:27 > 0:01:29How do girls do this?

0:01:29 > 0:01:32Can her best woman...

0:01:32 > 0:01:34- Come on, kids! - ..keep her in check...

0:01:34 > 0:01:37and in one piece?

0:01:37 > 0:01:39Basically the poo's hitting the fan.

0:01:39 > 0:01:41Will she ever unleash her inner girliness?

0:01:41 > 0:01:43Oh, no!

0:01:43 > 0:01:45- Can this woman...- I'm mad.

0:01:45 > 0:01:48- ..give her woman...- It's vile. - ..a day she'll never forget?

0:01:48 > 0:01:50I want to go home, just grab her.

0:01:50 > 0:01:52I feel like not marrying her now.

0:02:07 > 0:02:11Today, 24-year-old Sian's moving out of the home she shares in Liverpool

0:02:11 > 0:02:14with her 31-year-old girlfriend Anna

0:02:14 > 0:02:18and the two men in their lives, Zack and Laurence.

0:02:18 > 0:02:21These two Scousers are crazy about each other,

0:02:21 > 0:02:24but we need to rewind a little

0:02:24 > 0:02:26to see where their love story began.

0:02:27 > 0:02:32Neither support worker Anna nor fashion manager Sian

0:02:32 > 0:02:35were looking for a relationship when they first set eyes on each other

0:02:35 > 0:02:37in a gay bar in Liverpool.

0:02:37 > 0:02:40I just thought she was gorgeous. I went on to my friend all the time,

0:02:40 > 0:02:43"She's gorgeous." She's the nicest- looking thing I ever saw.

0:02:43 > 0:02:47- Just looks like a little doll. Oh! - THEY LAUGH

0:02:47 > 0:02:51Cupid had struck. But Anna wasn't going to have an easy ride

0:02:51 > 0:02:53from her future girlfriend.

0:02:53 > 0:02:56I could see Anna giving me the eye, but I didn't really want to know.

0:02:56 > 0:03:01I was trying to act all cool. But we did bump into each other a few times.

0:03:01 > 0:03:03- 'Oh, good few times.' - 'A good few times!'

0:03:03 > 0:03:06Now, when I look back, you were obviously stalking me,

0:03:06 > 0:03:09- and playing hard to get. - Oh, my God! Dream on!

0:03:09 > 0:03:14It wasn't long before they knew they wanted to spend the rest of their lives together.

0:03:14 > 0:03:17'I think she's absolutely gorgeous, and I love her eyes and smile.'

0:03:17 > 0:03:21When she smiles, it lights her whole face up. I love that about her.

0:03:21 > 0:03:24I can't explain how I knew she was the one.

0:03:24 > 0:03:27I just loved everything about her,

0:03:27 > 0:03:29and just thought, "Bloody hell, this is a bit mad."

0:03:29 > 0:03:34Being with Sian finally gave Anna the courage she needed

0:03:34 > 0:03:36to come out to her parents.

0:03:36 > 0:03:39When I met Sian, I thought, "I'm going to have to tell her,"

0:03:39 > 0:03:44so I said, "Mum, I know you know I'm gay, but I've never told you. So I'm telling you."

0:03:44 > 0:03:47She was crying. "Oh, I just want you to be happy!"

0:03:47 > 0:03:49"What's her name? Can I meet her?"

0:03:49 > 0:03:54Anna knew Sian was the one, and four months later popped the question.

0:03:54 > 0:03:56# Baby, I think I wanna marry you #

0:03:56 > 0:03:59Anna's big romantic proposal was in a text.

0:03:59 > 0:04:01It wasn't. I knew you were going to say that.

0:04:01 > 0:04:05- It was in a text!- It wasn't, because we spoke about it.

0:04:05 > 0:04:08Yeah. No, we'd spoke about it, and then in a text one day,

0:04:08 > 0:04:10she said, "Let's just get engaged. Let's just do it."

0:04:10 > 0:04:13But Anna's not quite so decisive at home.

0:04:13 > 0:04:17You haven't opened a single letter or a single bill, or paid one.

0:04:17 > 0:04:20'Anna's just hopeless, really.'

0:04:20 > 0:04:23She doesn't sort bills out. She can't open letters.

0:04:23 > 0:04:27SHE SIGHS Anna, you drive me mad, you know.

0:04:27 > 0:04:29Honest to God.

0:04:29 > 0:04:31Even her intended has to agree.

0:04:31 > 0:04:34Any mail, even... I don't know what it is. I haven't got a clue.

0:04:34 > 0:04:37If it's got my name on, I go... I don't open mail.

0:04:37 > 0:04:41I've never...never handled "male" in my life.

0:04:41 > 0:04:43I have once, but...

0:04:43 > 0:04:45SHE LAUGHS

0:04:45 > 0:04:47Excuse the pun. So it's no surprise

0:04:47 > 0:04:51that Anna's hopelessly wrapped around Sian's little finger.

0:04:51 > 0:04:53Who wears the trousers? Physically it's me,

0:04:53 > 0:04:58obviously. But...Sian wears the trousers.

0:04:58 > 0:05:01- She gets her own way all the time. - Oh, glad you said that.

0:05:01 > 0:05:04Yeah, I agree with that as well. THEY LAUGH

0:05:04 > 0:05:07But that's about to change.

0:05:07 > 0:05:12For the next three weeks, it's going to be Anna's way all the way.

0:05:14 > 0:05:16Oh, Sian, that's ridiculous!

0:05:16 > 0:05:19We'll have to hire a lorry or something to get to your mum's.

0:05:19 > 0:05:21Don't be dramatic.

0:05:21 > 0:05:25The task ahead is huge, because these girls couldn't be more different.

0:05:25 > 0:05:27I'm a real girly girl, really.

0:05:27 > 0:05:30'I love all my fashion and clothes-shopping and stuff.'

0:05:30 > 0:05:32What do you think of this one?

0:05:32 > 0:05:36I'm very tomboyish. That's the only way I can describe me.

0:05:36 > 0:05:37I am. I'm a tomboy.

0:05:38 > 0:05:42But to give her woman what she wants,

0:05:42 > 0:05:47Anna will have to immerse herself in Sian's girly world, so to speak.

0:05:47 > 0:05:49I've never bought a dress in my life.

0:05:49 > 0:05:52I wouldn't know what was a nice dress and what wasn't.

0:05:52 > 0:05:55I'd know if the woman was nice that was in the dress,

0:05:55 > 0:05:57but I wouldn't know the dress was nice.

0:05:57 > 0:06:00Anna's a fish out of water in the world of weddings,

0:06:00 > 0:06:03and Sian won't be happy with anything less

0:06:03 > 0:06:05than a very big white one.

0:06:05 > 0:06:08I've always dreamt of quite a big day, really.

0:06:08 > 0:06:11'I want it quite traditional.'

0:06:11 > 0:06:15It doesn't mean that the day's got to be any different to if I was marrying a man.

0:06:15 > 0:06:18It's a gay wedding, so I wouldn't want us to do traditional.

0:06:18 > 0:06:21I want to do something different, cos we are different.

0:06:21 > 0:06:26This lesbian love affair is about to be put to the ultimate test,

0:06:26 > 0:06:31when Sian leaves her girly wedding in Anna's not-so-girly hands.

0:06:31 > 0:06:34Do you think it's going to be a disaster, me arranging it?

0:06:34 > 0:06:36Biggest disaster ever.

0:06:36 > 0:06:38I think I should've been the bride!

0:06:41 > 0:06:43The time has come to say goodbye.

0:06:43 > 0:06:45Oh, I've got to go!

0:06:48 > 0:06:51Seriously? It's only three weeks!

0:06:51 > 0:06:54Oh! This isn't shutting.

0:06:54 > 0:06:57Make it shut.

0:06:58 > 0:07:01Love you. See you soon.

0:07:01 > 0:07:04# When I see your face

0:07:06 > 0:07:10# There's not a thing that I would change

0:07:10 > 0:07:13# Cos you're amazing

0:07:13 > 0:07:17# Just the way you are #

0:07:18 > 0:07:22I feel sick. I feel like I've lost my right hand already.

0:07:22 > 0:07:25I'll have a chocolate. Always cheers me up.

0:07:28 > 0:07:30Chocolate's the answer to everything.

0:07:33 > 0:07:37Sian's moving seven miles away, back to her mum's.

0:07:37 > 0:07:40- Her sister Stephanie lives just next door.- You OK?

0:07:40 > 0:07:42Ooh, home, sweet home!

0:07:42 > 0:07:45Sian's homecoming has reminded Mum Shirley

0:07:45 > 0:07:49of the dreams she once had for her daughter's big day.

0:07:49 > 0:07:52I just had in my head that she was going to have this big white wedding

0:07:52 > 0:07:56one day, and a man! And marrying a man.

0:07:56 > 0:07:58But...

0:07:58 > 0:08:00I never imagined she'd...

0:08:00 > 0:08:04be gay, and marrying a woman.

0:08:05 > 0:08:09Sian settles back into her pretty pink bedroom.

0:08:09 > 0:08:13I think she looks gorgeous. Bit more of a girly side to her, as well.

0:08:13 > 0:08:16I'm going to talk to these every night, just warn her.

0:08:16 > 0:08:18Just...

0:08:18 > 0:08:20Please, just get this right for me.

0:08:22 > 0:08:26She needn't worry. Anna's just called for backup.

0:08:26 > 0:08:27# They wanna know

0:08:27 > 0:08:29# Who's that girl #

0:08:29 > 0:08:32Introducing rapper MC Stylee -

0:08:32 > 0:08:35or Jade, best mate of five years and her best woman.

0:08:35 > 0:08:38She's more into beat-boxing than bridal wear,

0:08:38 > 0:08:41and no more in touch with her feminine side than Anna.

0:08:41 > 0:08:45Anna and Jade together is just unthinkable, really.

0:08:45 > 0:08:49People assume two women planning a wedding, it'll all be amazing.

0:08:49 > 0:08:52But we both lead each other astray at times,

0:08:52 > 0:08:54so I don't know what's going to happen.

0:08:54 > 0:08:58Eager to give Sian her dream wedding, Anna reveals her vision

0:08:58 > 0:09:01for the reception venue - a warehouse.

0:09:01 > 0:09:04Something like an outbuilding, just looks wrecked on the outside.

0:09:04 > 0:09:07It's perfect for a girly wedding -

0:09:07 > 0:09:11assuming the girl in question drives a fork-lift truck.

0:09:11 > 0:09:13Don't do it all up on the outside, just the inside,

0:09:13 > 0:09:16so as she's coming down, she's going to be thinking,

0:09:16 > 0:09:18"What's going on here? Where am I going?"

0:09:18 > 0:09:21- Definitely.- "This is not my venue."

0:09:21 > 0:09:24- We can do it inside, though. - Dead classy. You know what I mean?

0:09:24 > 0:09:26Sounds it!

0:09:26 > 0:09:30And how do we achieve "classy"? Over to Jade.

0:09:30 > 0:09:32Do a masquerade ball, Anna.

0:09:32 > 0:09:35I swear to God, it would be amazing.

0:09:35 > 0:09:38It would be dead sexy and cool.

0:09:38 > 0:09:40Get, like, burlesque dancers on

0:09:40 > 0:09:43and all different entertainment and stuff.

0:09:43 > 0:09:47- Is that your mates we're on about? - Trust me. Don't worry about it.

0:09:47 > 0:09:51This is your time to show Sian what you can do.

0:09:51 > 0:09:54- My time to shine.- We'll do it. - Cheers to that, definitely.

0:09:54 > 0:09:57Whoo!

0:09:58 > 0:10:02So, the idea for Sian's big day is to stick her in a dodgy warehouse

0:10:02 > 0:10:06full of guests she won't recognise because they all have masks on.

0:10:06 > 0:10:11They meet at the docks, where Jade's lined up a mass-cabaret night,

0:10:11 > 0:10:14keen to convince Anna of her plan.

0:10:14 > 0:10:16Just get an idea of the entertainment,

0:10:16 > 0:10:19an idea of the style, what they're wearing. Just pick up on stuff.

0:10:19 > 0:10:23Yeah, that'll be good. I'll have a look, but I just don't know.

0:10:23 > 0:10:27In they go. There's nothing wrong with this as a wedding theme -

0:10:27 > 0:10:30well, except her. And him.

0:10:30 > 0:10:34And him. And her. Is this really what Jade had in mind?

0:10:34 > 0:10:36HARD-DANCE MUSIC POUNDS

0:10:46 > 0:10:48CHEERING

0:10:51 > 0:10:53Oh, do you know what?

0:10:53 > 0:10:56Guess the masquerade-ball theme's definitely out the window.

0:10:56 > 0:10:59Them people are insane.

0:10:59 > 0:11:00Anna, I'm sorry.

0:11:00 > 0:11:02THEY LAUGH

0:11:02 > 0:11:06At least we know we can wipe that idea clean off the paper.

0:11:06 > 0:11:09It's an experience, but that's a bit too much of an experience.

0:11:09 > 0:11:13And with that, Jade's masquerade theme falls firmly on its arse.

0:11:16 > 0:11:19Anna's still set on a warehouse for the reception,

0:11:19 > 0:11:22but she wants somewhere much grander to say her vows.

0:11:22 > 0:11:24Today, P is for positivity.

0:11:24 > 0:11:26Let's go.

0:11:26 > 0:11:29- Are you nervous?- Yeah, dead nervous.

0:11:29 > 0:11:32Liverpool's town hall is certainly grand enough.

0:11:32 > 0:11:36It could be the perfect setting for Sian's girly white wedding.

0:11:36 > 0:11:39But Anna doesn't want girly. She wants something

0:11:39 > 0:11:42more in touch with her masculine side.

0:11:45 > 0:11:49This is the seat of power. This is where all the decisions get made.

0:11:49 > 0:11:54I can feel it. That's why I'm so overwhelmed and so excited.

0:11:54 > 0:11:56It's powerful, Anna.

0:11:56 > 0:11:58It shows a side of you, though.

0:11:58 > 0:12:02This is a bit more me than Sian. This is a bit more manly.

0:12:02 > 0:12:05That's what I mean. It's...

0:12:05 > 0:12:10I'm speechless. Anna, it's amazing. It's absolutely amazing.

0:12:12 > 0:12:14You can feel what goes on in here.

0:12:14 > 0:12:17It's not Sian, though.

0:12:19 > 0:12:21Oh, imagine she hates it!

0:12:23 > 0:12:26This is the biggest decision I've ever had to make, ever.

0:12:26 > 0:12:30That's why I'm struggling. Yeah, it is about making a statement,

0:12:30 > 0:12:34but it could just go wrong.

0:12:34 > 0:12:39But Anna's prepared to risk £1,000 on making her manly statement.

0:12:39 > 0:12:44I just need to know dates. I need to know the availability.

0:12:44 > 0:12:47- It's free, yeah.- Is it? Oh, Jade!

0:12:47 > 0:12:49THEY LAUGH

0:12:49 > 0:12:52- ANNA MOANS - Go on, kid!

0:12:52 > 0:12:55Oh, I'm nearly crying! I need to hold it together!

0:12:57 > 0:13:00THEY LAUGH

0:13:00 > 0:13:03- Oh, my God!- Oh, I'm made up!

0:13:04 > 0:13:07SONG: "Who's That Chick" by David Guetta feat. Rihanna

0:13:12 > 0:13:15It's back to reception planning, and there's one more woman

0:13:15 > 0:13:18Anna still needs to impress with her warehouse idea -

0:13:18 > 0:13:20her sister Louise.

0:13:20 > 0:13:23Come on, then! Spill.

0:13:23 > 0:13:25You might think I'm mad.

0:13:25 > 0:13:27Why?

0:13:27 > 0:13:31I think Sian's mad for letting you organise the whole wedding.

0:13:32 > 0:13:35Everyone's just going to think, you know,

0:13:35 > 0:13:38manor house, country garden. I know Sian would want that,

0:13:38 > 0:13:41but I'm doing something totally opposite to that.

0:13:41 > 0:13:43What?

0:13:43 > 0:13:46A run-down area with a warehouse.

0:13:46 > 0:13:48ANNA CHUCKLES NERVOUSLY

0:13:48 > 0:13:51For your wedding day? Sian's like a little princess, Anna.

0:13:51 > 0:13:54With the reception venue still to find,

0:13:54 > 0:13:59Anna wants to show sister Louise the kind of rough-and-ready style she's looking for.

0:14:00 > 0:14:07Meanwhile, just five miles away, Sian's brought her bridesmaid Hannah along to classic Croxteth Hall,

0:14:07 > 0:14:12where she's keen to show off the classy feminine style she wants.

0:14:12 > 0:14:15This country estate is set in elegant surroundings,

0:14:15 > 0:14:19with exquisite rooms perfect for Sian's classic wedding.

0:14:19 > 0:14:22This is, like, red carpet. Imagine me walking up the stairs,

0:14:22 > 0:14:27- right down here, and then in. - The ceiling is just gorgeous.

0:14:27 > 0:14:30- Imagine just pictures out there. - Yeah.

0:14:30 > 0:14:32Put some nice flowers around, couldn't you?

0:14:32 > 0:14:35- Is this what you'd want? - Yeah.- This style?

0:14:35 > 0:14:37- Yeah.- Yeah.

0:14:37 > 0:14:40This exactly is perfect.

0:14:40 > 0:14:42I don't think Anna's got a clue what she wants,

0:14:42 > 0:14:46- let alone what she thinks I would want.- She wouldn't like this.

0:14:46 > 0:14:50I can't see her here, no. Really.

0:14:50 > 0:14:52I can't picture what she'd even do.

0:14:52 > 0:14:55You couldn't even begin to imagine.

0:14:55 > 0:14:57# Love is in the air

0:14:58 > 0:15:00# Everywhere I look around...

0:15:02 > 0:15:04It stinks!

0:15:04 > 0:15:06# Love is in the air

0:15:06 > 0:15:08# Every sight and every sound...

0:15:08 > 0:15:11Somewhere like that. In that building, like that.

0:15:11 > 0:15:14- No. You're taking the piss.- I'm not!

0:15:14 > 0:15:15I'm not messing, Louise.

0:15:15 > 0:15:18I mean, if they had a big room in there,

0:15:18 > 0:15:21a big square room, massive, and it was just for me to go in,

0:15:21 > 0:15:25a blank canvas, and do it up and make it look amazing...

0:15:25 > 0:15:26It looks awful.

0:15:26 > 0:15:29There's just no words.

0:15:29 > 0:15:31Outside's just perfect, isn't it?

0:15:31 > 0:15:35Just all this space, and just looking at the building itself,

0:15:35 > 0:15:37it's absolutely gorgeous.

0:15:37 > 0:15:39I can't see this being anything Anna would go for.

0:15:39 > 0:15:42What will she get?

0:15:42 > 0:15:43I dread to think.

0:15:43 > 0:15:46# Love is in the air

0:15:48 > 0:15:50# Love is in the air #

0:15:50 > 0:15:54- Looks like a tramp's little doorway. - But this is the effect I want.

0:15:54 > 0:15:57If you go somewhere spectacular outside, you'll just expect it,

0:15:57 > 0:16:00and you won't appreciate it when you go in.

0:16:00 > 0:16:03If that was you on your wedding day, would you get out the car

0:16:03 > 0:16:05or would you turn round? Honestly?

0:16:07 > 0:16:10- I don't know. I don't know. - Don't say that.

0:16:12 > 0:16:15I just hope she thinks along the same lines as what I think.

0:16:15 > 0:16:17If she doesn't get this right,

0:16:17 > 0:16:20I think we'll be divorced before the day's even over.

0:16:20 > 0:16:22HANNAH LAUGHS

0:16:22 > 0:16:25No. It'll be all right, won't it?

0:16:25 > 0:16:28What's the worst that could happen, really?

0:16:28 > 0:16:30Seriously?

0:16:30 > 0:16:33Probably best not to dwell on that.

0:16:36 > 0:16:39As the search for a gritty venue continues,

0:16:39 > 0:16:43Anna hooks up with Jade for a visit to Liverpool's Contemporary Urban Centre.

0:16:45 > 0:16:48Could this have the classy feminine feel

0:16:48 > 0:16:50that Sian would wish for her wedding?

0:16:50 > 0:16:52- This is the mezzanine.- No.

0:16:52 > 0:16:56But it's exactly what Anna's had her heart set on.

0:16:56 > 0:16:59Oh, my God, it's amazing! Isn't it?

0:16:59 > 0:17:01- Eh?- No way!

0:17:01 > 0:17:06- God!- You're not stuck to the furniture that's in the room,

0:17:06 > 0:17:09- so you could use that... - That would be well better.

0:17:09 > 0:17:12- A more loungey, cooler kind of space. - Oh, I love it.

0:17:12 > 0:17:14- Can we go and have a look up there? - Course, yeah.

0:17:19 > 0:17:22So it's set up at the moment for quite formal dining,

0:17:22 > 0:17:26- but you can just change it. - I'd have these out.

0:17:26 > 0:17:28- I don't want these. - You could have it out.

0:17:28 > 0:17:31- This is perfect. - Anna's got her blank canvas,

0:17:31 > 0:17:36so now she can put all her love into making it what she thinks is girly for Sian.

0:17:36 > 0:17:38We've got work to do in here now.

0:17:38 > 0:17:40We can't just pick the venue and relax.

0:17:40 > 0:17:42We got to come and do it.

0:17:42 > 0:17:46- You'll be able to put your heart and soul into it...- My stamp on it.

0:17:46 > 0:17:49- ..your love into it. - It's like the pressure's gone,

0:17:49 > 0:17:53but now there's a brand-new stress on our heads now, doing all this up.

0:17:53 > 0:17:58And the brand-new stress has just cost her two and a half grand.

0:18:02 > 0:18:05Home alone - well, not quite.

0:18:05 > 0:18:08And now she's ready to start striking more items

0:18:08 > 0:18:09off her to-do list.

0:18:09 > 0:18:12I can tick that off. Venue.

0:18:12 > 0:18:14That's all I CAN tick!

0:18:14 > 0:18:16Oh, my God!

0:18:16 > 0:18:19Oh, so much to do.

0:18:24 > 0:18:27At least someone appreciates her efforts.

0:18:31 > 0:18:33Five days in,

0:18:33 > 0:18:36and Anna decides it's time to prettify her warehouse.

0:18:36 > 0:18:40She and sister Louise are in search of some decor

0:18:40 > 0:18:45that will wow the bride to be... at a car-boot sale?

0:18:46 > 0:18:50Oh, I think that would be boss, just like that! I love it!

0:18:50 > 0:18:53A scooter! That's perfect!

0:18:53 > 0:18:54That'll be the centrepiece.

0:18:54 > 0:18:59I think you can call it a day, love. That's the decor sorted.

0:18:59 > 0:19:01It's just not going good for me today.

0:19:01 > 0:19:03I need to find something ASAP.

0:19:03 > 0:19:08Not just any old thing, Anna. Something useful, maybe.

0:19:09 > 0:19:12Have you got eight - four of them and four different ones?

0:19:12 > 0:19:17That's eight chairs, for 200 guests. Do the maths.

0:19:17 > 0:19:20And why not throw a couple of mirrors into the mix?

0:19:20 > 0:19:23At least it will look like there are twice as many chairs.

0:19:23 > 0:19:28Oblivious to the delights that Anna has so far laid on for her wedding,

0:19:28 > 0:19:31Sian and her mum are wondering how her beloved is getting on.

0:19:31 > 0:19:34If you was arranging it all, would you have it all done by now,

0:19:34 > 0:19:36or...

0:19:36 > 0:19:38Yeah. More or less, I would think, yeah.

0:19:38 > 0:19:41Probably produce a little list of every single thing

0:19:41 > 0:19:45that they can think at the beginning, that they're going to need,

0:19:45 > 0:19:47and then tick them all off.

0:19:47 > 0:19:52If you haven't got a list with you, you end up buying random things.

0:19:52 > 0:19:55And Jade's about to see those random things.

0:19:55 > 0:19:58OK. We got eight chairs and a mirror, as well.

0:19:58 > 0:20:00- Oh, thank you very much.- Okey doke.

0:20:00 > 0:20:03- You feel like you shouldn't leave me on my own no more?- Never again.

0:20:03 > 0:20:05With things so clearly pear-shaped,

0:20:05 > 0:20:10Jade decides it's time to have a quiet word. Well, a word, anyway.

0:20:10 > 0:20:12This lady standing before us today

0:20:12 > 0:20:15needs to be barred from the car-boot sale.

0:20:15 > 0:20:20Do not ever sell her Chinese chairs for her wedding again.

0:20:20 > 0:20:22Sian's going to be made up.

0:20:22 > 0:20:24This is just a load of shit.

0:20:24 > 0:20:28Oh, that's a bit harsh! I'll settle for "a pile of junk".

0:20:31 > 0:20:37One week over, and so far Anna's approached the girly world of weddings like...well, a bloke.

0:20:37 > 0:20:40But never mind. She's out celebrating her stag do

0:20:40 > 0:20:42at Liverpool's Gay Pride.

0:20:42 > 0:20:46Ashley! You look gorgeous!

0:20:46 > 0:20:49- Don't tell the bride! - You all right?

0:20:49 > 0:20:52- Fine, gorgeous. How are you? - All right. You look amazing!

0:20:52 > 0:20:55But one person isn't feeling quite so gay.

0:20:55 > 0:20:58Sian has somewhere else to go - work.

0:20:58 > 0:21:01I feel horrible that I can't go with her.

0:21:01 > 0:21:03It would have been nice for me to go

0:21:03 > 0:21:06and kind of show my support and stuff like that.

0:21:06 > 0:21:09- I hope you have a good day at work. - All right. Thanks, Mum.

0:21:09 > 0:21:11See you later.

0:21:11 > 0:21:15It looks like it's going to rain, so I hope it rains on them all today.

0:21:16 > 0:21:20But no-one's raining on Anna's parade today.

0:21:20 > 0:21:23RHYTHMIC MUSIC POUNDS

0:21:33 > 0:21:36ANNOUNCER: The Dreams!

0:21:36 > 0:21:38# We're your dreamgirls

0:21:38 > 0:21:41# Boy, we'll make you happy

0:21:41 > 0:21:42# Yeah, yeah, yeah

0:21:42 > 0:21:44# We're your dreamgirls

0:21:44 > 0:21:50# Boys, we'll always care

0:21:50 > 0:21:52# We'll be there #

0:21:52 > 0:21:55DANCE MUSIC BLARES

0:21:59 > 0:22:02But what's missing from this stag?

0:22:02 > 0:22:05I've booked you half an hour at Dreamers, all right?

0:22:05 > 0:22:08- You haven't! - I have, I swear.- Oh, no!

0:22:08 > 0:22:11I don't want to dance there. I'll go. I don't want to dance.

0:22:11 > 0:22:14- Is that all right? - Yeah, that's fine.

0:22:15 > 0:22:18SONG: "Like A G6" by Far East Movement

0:22:18 > 0:22:21# I'm feelin' so fly

0:22:21 > 0:22:22# Like a G6 #

0:22:22 > 0:22:25SONG: "Little Bad Girl" by David Guetta

0:22:26 > 0:22:29# Go, little bad girl

0:22:29 > 0:22:30# Little bad girl

0:22:30 > 0:22:32# Go, little bad girl

0:22:32 > 0:22:34# Go, little bad girl #

0:22:34 > 0:22:36THEY CHATTER

0:22:36 > 0:22:40It's week two. Anna's spent four grand,

0:22:40 > 0:22:43and still only got two venues and some decor.

0:22:43 > 0:22:46But she's still missing the gown, cars,

0:22:46 > 0:22:50flowers, cake, rings, bridesmaids' dresses...

0:22:50 > 0:22:52The good news is, she's up with the birds -

0:22:52 > 0:22:55just not HER bird.

0:22:55 > 0:22:57The bad news is, she's got to go back to work.

0:22:57 > 0:23:00# Tumble out of bed and I stumble to the kitchen

0:23:00 > 0:23:02# Pour myself a cup of ambition...

0:23:02 > 0:23:04I'm freezing, and my clothes are wet.

0:23:04 > 0:23:08I really shouldn't have to go in, but I do.

0:23:12 > 0:23:14Booked my taxi.

0:23:14 > 0:23:16# Working nine to five

0:23:16 > 0:23:19# What a way to make a living #

0:23:19 > 0:23:22Anna's back at her job as a support worker all week,

0:23:22 > 0:23:26so she'll have to put her wedding plans on hold...

0:23:27 > 0:23:30..and reality's beginning to bite.

0:23:30 > 0:23:32Don't know what I'm going to do.

0:23:34 > 0:23:37I think it's impossible, isn't it?

0:23:37 > 0:23:39# Time goes by

0:23:39 > 0:23:41# So slowly #

0:23:41 > 0:23:44The next four days slip through her fingers...

0:23:44 > 0:23:47just like that.

0:23:51 > 0:23:52KNOCK AT DOOR

0:23:52 > 0:23:56It's high time for some best-womanly intervention.

0:23:56 > 0:23:58- All right?- Oh! - THEY LAUGH

0:23:59 > 0:24:01I need you!

0:24:01 > 0:24:03We haven't got nothing.

0:24:05 > 0:24:08- Oh, my God!- What am I going to do?

0:24:08 > 0:24:10Basically, the poo's hitting the fan.

0:24:10 > 0:24:13- THEY LAUGH - Oh, no. It's not even funny.

0:24:14 > 0:24:18It's a new day, but the same old obsession.

0:24:18 > 0:24:21Anna's back on the hunt for warehouse decor.

0:24:21 > 0:24:25At least this time she's brought sensible Jade to keep her in line.

0:24:25 > 0:24:27Come on, kids!

0:24:29 > 0:24:32Or maybe bringing Jade wasn't such a good idea.

0:24:32 > 0:24:34SHE SIGHS

0:24:34 > 0:24:36Up!

0:24:41 > 0:24:43Agh!

0:24:43 > 0:24:45THEY LAUGH

0:24:45 > 0:24:49- "Mr Humphries, are you free?" - "I am free!"- "Menswear."

0:24:49 > 0:24:52That's more random clobber sorted.

0:24:52 > 0:24:55And to the front desk, please. And to the front desk.

0:24:55 > 0:24:58- Thank you. - THEY LAUGH

0:24:58 > 0:25:00Roger that.

0:25:00 > 0:25:02THEY LAUGH

0:25:04 > 0:25:09In all the stress, the woman who's in charge of her whole wedding

0:25:09 > 0:25:12has forgotten her own birthday. But her future missus hasn't.

0:25:12 > 0:25:15Arriving home with her sister Louise,

0:25:15 > 0:25:17Anna's in for a surprise.

0:25:17 > 0:25:20Oh, my God!

0:25:20 > 0:25:23Oh, isn't that lovely? Open it!

0:25:25 > 0:25:26Oh!

0:25:26 > 0:25:30To my Annie. I can't believe, on your first birthday

0:25:30 > 0:25:33we should have been spending together, we're apart.

0:25:33 > 0:25:35I'm missing you more than anything.

0:25:35 > 0:25:37You truly are the most amazing person ever.

0:25:37 > 0:25:40You are beautiful inside and out.

0:25:40 > 0:25:42SHE SOBS

0:25:44 > 0:25:47I'm proud to know that I'm about to become your wife.

0:25:47 > 0:25:50Can't wait to see you and your gorgeous smile.

0:25:50 > 0:25:54I hope you're not stressing too much, even though I know you will be.

0:25:56 > 0:26:00Whatever happens, I love you and always will. Thank you so much.

0:26:00 > 0:26:02Love you the whole world and back. Your Sianie.

0:26:06 > 0:26:09- SHE SNIFFS - God!

0:26:09 > 0:26:11Oh, my God.

0:26:21 > 0:26:23With just over a week to go,

0:26:23 > 0:26:27Sian's touching words have given Anna new focus for the wedding.

0:26:27 > 0:26:31If she wants to give her beloved the day of her dreams,

0:26:31 > 0:26:34Anna will have to find her the bridal gown of her dreams.

0:26:34 > 0:26:38But this is the girl who's never bought a dress in her life,

0:26:38 > 0:26:41so she won't be leaving without Jade by her side.

0:26:41 > 0:26:44I still haven't got a clue about dresses, to be honest,

0:26:44 > 0:26:47but I can go and have a look, can't I?

0:26:47 > 0:26:51Not yet, she can't, because Jade's not into dresses either,

0:26:51 > 0:26:53and has no intention of trying one on,

0:26:53 > 0:26:56even for her best mate.

0:26:56 > 0:26:58So she's on the hunt for a model.

0:26:58 > 0:26:59# I like them tall girls

0:26:59 > 0:27:01# I like them short girls...

0:27:01 > 0:27:04Which one of youse want to be Sian? Anyone?

0:27:04 > 0:27:07Never get lonely in here, would you? Ever.

0:27:07 > 0:27:09# I get all the girls

0:27:09 > 0:27:11# I get all the girls #

0:27:12 > 0:27:16I think you're going to be perfect for the job.

0:27:16 > 0:27:19Jade's found her replacement. But she's a bit legless.

0:27:19 > 0:27:21Oh, shit!

0:27:21 > 0:27:25Finally the best woman arrives with her newfound friend.

0:27:25 > 0:27:27- All right?- Oh, what's that?

0:27:28 > 0:27:31- Sian. - ANNA LAUGHS

0:27:31 > 0:27:33We're not carrying that round with us.

0:27:33 > 0:27:37Oh, don't worry. She comes to pieces. Look. Hi, babe!

0:27:39 > 0:27:44Anna, Jade, and, er...Sian head off to shop.

0:27:45 > 0:27:50Whatever happens, the trio can't return home without a wedding dress.

0:27:50 > 0:27:53Oh, Sian, sorry.

0:27:53 > 0:27:56But with the dummy in pieces, Anna, the blonde bombshell,

0:27:56 > 0:27:59drops - well, a bombshell.

0:27:59 > 0:28:03When we go to the next shop, maybe you could try something on.

0:28:03 > 0:28:05- Would you do that?- I'll have to.

0:28:05 > 0:28:08I'll get more of an idea of what it looks like on.

0:28:08 > 0:28:11Oh, this is going to be funny, isn't it?

0:28:18 > 0:28:20Do you know what size she is?

0:28:20 > 0:28:23I think she was a ten last time I seen her.

0:28:23 > 0:28:26This girl needs help.

0:28:26 > 0:28:29I'm a bride and a groom at the same time,

0:28:29 > 0:28:32but I'm looking for a dress for, obviously, my wife to be,

0:28:32 > 0:28:35- but I don't even know what I'm looking for.- You don't say!

0:28:35 > 0:28:38That's a lovely plain one, but it's not too...

0:28:38 > 0:28:41That's a lovely Grecian style what Kylie's got there.

0:28:41 > 0:28:44- Oh, I like that. - And there's that one here, as well.

0:28:44 > 0:28:46That's nice, as well. There you are, Jade.

0:28:46 > 0:28:48- Totally different.- It is!

0:28:48 > 0:28:52- Are you all right to try that on? - No, she really isn't.

0:28:52 > 0:28:54Not very happy about it, are you?

0:28:54 > 0:28:56I'm fine, Anna.

0:28:56 > 0:28:58THEY LAUGH

0:29:02 > 0:29:05She won't even know how to put it on.

0:29:05 > 0:29:11Across town, Sian's also taking mum Shirley and bridesmaid Hannah frock-shopping.

0:29:12 > 0:29:16And Shirley picks out the dream dress she thinks Sian would love.

0:29:16 > 0:29:20- That is absolutely fabulous. - I do quite like that.

0:29:20 > 0:29:22Mum waits with bated breath.

0:29:22 > 0:29:25I would like to see her get married in a real one.

0:29:27 > 0:29:31- Wow, Sian!- Oh, my God!

0:29:31 > 0:29:34Oh, my word, Sian!

0:29:34 > 0:29:36Oh, it's so beautiful!

0:29:36 > 0:29:38SHE LAUGHS

0:29:40 > 0:29:42Oh, my, Sian, it's fabulous!

0:29:42 > 0:29:45You look like a real princess!

0:29:45 > 0:29:48While Sian's feeling like a real princess,

0:29:48 > 0:29:52Jade's feeling like a right Charlie.

0:29:52 > 0:29:54THEY LAUGH

0:29:58 > 0:30:01- Jade! Oh! - THEY LAUGH

0:30:03 > 0:30:07Do you like this dress, Anna? Do you want this one?

0:30:07 > 0:30:10No, listen... Yeah, it's nice.

0:30:10 > 0:30:13SHE LAUGHS

0:30:13 > 0:30:16I feel like I'm looking at my brother in a dress.

0:30:17 > 0:30:19You can take a picture if you want.

0:30:19 > 0:30:22Oh, man!

0:30:22 > 0:30:24THEY LAUGH

0:30:24 > 0:30:27Yes, photographic evidence is just what she wants!

0:30:27 > 0:30:33Never did I think, as a best man, I would be doing this.

0:30:33 > 0:30:35SHE LAUGHS

0:30:35 > 0:30:39With half the day gone, the girls are yet to be wowed by anything.

0:30:39 > 0:30:44Got to have it done by today. I'm doing it today. I'm on a mission.

0:30:46 > 0:30:48Sian's on a mission of her own.

0:30:48 > 0:30:52She's got something much sexier than a princess dress in mind.

0:30:52 > 0:30:54HANNAH GASPS

0:30:54 > 0:30:57- Isn't that just fabulous?- Oh, my God!

0:30:57 > 0:31:02In the name of love, Anna's braved the bridal world.

0:31:02 > 0:31:05But eight hours in, she's still empty-handed,

0:31:05 > 0:31:07and the shops are closing.

0:31:09 > 0:31:12Got no dress, no nothing.

0:31:13 > 0:31:15No bird.

0:31:18 > 0:31:21Luckily one bridal shop is still open.

0:31:21 > 0:31:25This is Anna's last chance to get it right for the girl she loves.

0:31:25 > 0:31:26I'm up the wall, so I need help.

0:31:26 > 0:31:30This is where I need your help, to tell me what her style is.

0:31:30 > 0:31:33She's a very girly girl.

0:31:33 > 0:31:37She's not your typical-looking-type lesbian,

0:31:37 > 0:31:39if you want me to say it just how it is.

0:31:39 > 0:31:44- Feminine, floaty, girly look... - Yeah.- ..would she?

0:31:44 > 0:31:46Sian's found her show-stopper.

0:31:46 > 0:31:49- Sian!- It's absolutely gorgeous. - It's beautiful.

0:31:49 > 0:31:54- Absolutely beautiful. - Isn't it gorgeous?

0:31:56 > 0:31:59Oh, Sian!

0:31:59 > 0:32:03This is just me. I want it, and that just fits dead nice.

0:32:03 > 0:32:05I just love the style of it, and I love this.

0:32:05 > 0:32:08- Yeah, I do. - It's all just glittery and just...

0:32:08 > 0:32:11But not too much, not over the top, is it? Do you know what I mean?

0:32:11 > 0:32:13It's dead glamorous.

0:32:13 > 0:32:16It's graceful and girly all the way for this Grecian goddess.

0:32:16 > 0:32:19- Wowzers!- That's lovely!

0:32:19 > 0:32:23Against all the odds, dress-phobic Anna's thinking along the same lines.

0:32:23 > 0:32:26Is Sian, would you say, a size smaller than Jade,

0:32:26 > 0:32:30- or body-wise... - No, she's probably the same. Yeah.

0:32:30 > 0:32:32She's got big boobs, as well.

0:32:32 > 0:32:36Well, we've got room in there to fit big boobs into.

0:32:36 > 0:32:40I really like that. I like that bit there at the top.

0:32:40 > 0:32:42It's different, isn't it?

0:32:42 > 0:32:45- I don't make decisions, as a rule. - Buy it.

0:32:45 > 0:32:49Never made a decision in my life, never mind a huge one like this.

0:32:49 > 0:32:51I am getting quite nervous now,

0:32:51 > 0:32:54because I've seen exactly what I want now, more or less.

0:32:54 > 0:32:58Unless she bought that, I am going to be disappointed, even if it's nice,

0:32:58 > 0:33:01because my heart's set on it now.

0:33:01 > 0:33:04- Prepare to be disappointed, then... - Oh, it's stunning.

0:33:04 > 0:33:08..because Anna's gone from Grecian to fitted lacy fishtail.

0:33:10 > 0:33:12That's... That's what I like.

0:33:12 > 0:33:16But I'm thinking, "What if Sian doesn't like it?"

0:33:16 > 0:33:20But I think that's stunning. I've got my dress. That's the one.

0:33:20 > 0:33:23- Really? Congratulations.- Thank you.

0:33:23 > 0:33:25Oh, it's so emotional, isn't it?

0:33:25 > 0:33:28No going back now. You've said it! No going back.

0:33:28 > 0:33:30She's gone sappy.

0:33:30 > 0:33:32Not again.

0:33:32 > 0:33:36I just think it's the most stunning thing I've ever seen,

0:33:36 > 0:33:38but I don't know whether Sian will.

0:33:38 > 0:33:43Anna's put 12 hours, £1,000 and every ounce of her love

0:33:43 > 0:33:47into finding something special for her Sian.

0:33:51 > 0:33:53With less than a week to go,

0:33:53 > 0:33:58Sian's about to get her first taste of Anna's planning at her hen do.

0:33:58 > 0:34:00Oh, my God!

0:34:00 > 0:34:03SHE SCREAMS Oh, my God! Look, look, look!

0:34:07 > 0:34:12So excited now, and can't wait to see what it is now.

0:34:13 > 0:34:16Hiya! Oh, wow!

0:34:16 > 0:34:19"Use the props in the bags, no ifs, buts or maybes."

0:34:19 > 0:34:22No! Oh, no! Rollers!

0:34:27 > 0:34:29I've never put in a roller in my life.

0:34:29 > 0:34:33The unwary hens don't get the significance of the rollers.

0:34:33 > 0:34:36- Cheers!- Do we even know where we're going?- No.

0:34:39 > 0:34:42- We're not going skating. - She wouldn't send us skating.

0:34:42 > 0:34:46But roller skating's exactly where she's sent them.

0:34:48 > 0:34:52"The budget - £150"! Not much!

0:34:52 > 0:34:54Turns out that's not even enough.

0:34:54 > 0:34:57She hasn't even paid the skating, which has just set us back £30.

0:34:57 > 0:35:00# Hey, hey, you, you, I don't like your girlfriend...

0:35:00 > 0:35:02Best get their skates on.

0:35:02 > 0:35:03# Think you need a new one

0:35:03 > 0:35:06# Hey, hey, you, you, I could be your girlfriend

0:35:09 > 0:35:12# Hey, hey, you, you, I don't like your girlfriend

0:35:12 > 0:35:15# No way, no way, it's not a secret

0:35:15 > 0:35:18# Hey, hey, you, you, I want to be your girlfriend

0:35:18 > 0:35:20# No way, no way

0:35:20 > 0:35:21# No way #

0:35:21 > 0:35:24Sian's still banging on about the budget.

0:35:24 > 0:35:27She gave us £150. £30 spent on roller skating.

0:35:27 > 0:35:31We could've got six bottles of wine with that.

0:35:32 > 0:35:38"This is on Anna." Yes. How generous! A portion of chips each.

0:35:38 > 0:35:40Enjoy!

0:35:40 > 0:35:41Thank you!

0:35:41 > 0:35:46Ever romantic, my Annie. Sends me skating with a portion of chips!

0:35:46 > 0:35:48THEY CHATTER

0:35:48 > 0:35:51Who'd have thought we'd come roller skating?

0:35:51 > 0:35:54We thought we'd have been eating a slap-up meal. I can't believe it.

0:35:54 > 0:35:57I keep thinking it's funny, and then I think, "No, it's not."

0:35:57 > 0:36:00The gloves are off and the heels back on.

0:36:00 > 0:36:03But Sian's not skating around the subject.

0:36:03 > 0:36:07I was expecting a spa weekend or something for my hen,

0:36:07 > 0:36:09not two hours of skating.

0:36:09 > 0:36:11Anna's failed her first girly test,

0:36:11 > 0:36:15and Sian can't hide her disappointment to sister Stephanie.

0:36:15 > 0:36:19I can't do this. If this is how I'm going to feel on the wedding day,

0:36:19 > 0:36:22it's not right. I just want to go home now and... I know I can't,

0:36:22 > 0:36:23but just grab her.

0:36:23 > 0:36:26I'm just scared now what the wedding's going to be.

0:36:29 > 0:36:32Four days to go, and Anna's blown half of her budget.

0:36:32 > 0:36:35But she needs to find her feminine side

0:36:35 > 0:36:37if she's to get this wedding right.

0:36:37 > 0:36:41- I don't know how much bridesmaids' dresses are.- Underwear, shoes,

0:36:41 > 0:36:43earrings, makeup, hair...

0:36:43 > 0:36:47- Oh, fuck off.- Oh, Anna!

0:36:47 > 0:36:49Time is money. Money is time, isn't it?

0:36:49 > 0:36:53They're going to have to step it up a pace.

0:36:57 > 0:37:00First up, girly, glamorous bridal shoes.

0:37:01 > 0:37:04I don't know if that looks nice or not.

0:37:04 > 0:37:08- Try it on.- Oh, it's not for me! Fuck trying that on.

0:37:08 > 0:37:10I can do it myself, ta.

0:37:12 > 0:37:15I don't know how these go.

0:37:16 > 0:37:18Don't ask her.

0:37:18 > 0:37:20Oh, how do girls do this?

0:37:20 > 0:37:23Whoa! Feel like I'm on stilts.

0:37:23 > 0:37:27Oh, I'm scared in case I fall! What do you think?

0:37:27 > 0:37:29Anna, you look amazing.

0:37:29 > 0:37:31It's the blind leading the blind.

0:37:31 > 0:37:34You just put one foot in front of the other, don't you?

0:37:34 > 0:37:36Can't do it.

0:37:36 > 0:37:39- Whoo!- Whoo-hoo!

0:37:39 > 0:37:43I couldn't wear something like that for a million pound.

0:37:43 > 0:37:47- Can I have them, then, please? - Yeah, sure.- Thank you very much.

0:37:48 > 0:37:50On a roll, the girls head to women's wear

0:37:50 > 0:37:53for blue bridesmaids' dresses.

0:37:54 > 0:37:57Hannah and Stephanie can only wait and worry.

0:37:57 > 0:38:00Are youse here for bridesmaids' dresses?

0:38:00 > 0:38:02- HANNAH SCREAMS - All right?

0:38:02 > 0:38:05Before you've even seen them, you're slagging them off!

0:38:05 > 0:38:08Now, you don't mind hot pants, do youse?

0:38:10 > 0:38:12- Oh!- What do you think?- They're nice.

0:38:12 > 0:38:15- What do you think of the colour? Do you like it?- Yeah.

0:38:15 > 0:38:17Are they all right? Really?

0:38:17 > 0:38:19I think she's getting the hang of this.

0:38:19 > 0:38:22Ooh, very nice. Turn around. Let's see the twirl.

0:38:22 > 0:38:26- ANNA LAUGHS - Yeah, very nice.

0:38:26 > 0:38:29Do you like them, Jade? Nice, aren't they?

0:38:29 > 0:38:33That's £600 well spent on a very ladylike choice.

0:38:33 > 0:38:35After three weeks of wedding planning,

0:38:35 > 0:38:39it looks like the tomboy's finally found her inner girl.

0:38:39 > 0:38:42Got a feminine side I didn't know I had.

0:38:45 > 0:38:47It's the day before the wedding,

0:38:47 > 0:38:50and Sian's about to come face-to-face with the only dress

0:38:50 > 0:38:53that Anna's ever bought in her life -

0:38:53 > 0:38:57the bridal gown that she spent 12 hours lovingly looking for.

0:38:57 > 0:38:59THEY CHATTER

0:38:59 > 0:39:01THEY LAUGH

0:39:01 > 0:39:04Oh, my God!

0:39:04 > 0:39:08Oh, God. Oh, no. Oh, it can't be anything like that.

0:39:12 > 0:39:14- You all nervous?- Oh, God, yeah.

0:39:14 > 0:39:18Do you want me to bring it out and let you see it first?

0:39:18 > 0:39:21- You should see it first.- You were going to blindfold yourself.

0:39:21 > 0:39:24No, go on. I'll see it. I'll see it first, please.

0:39:24 > 0:39:26- OK.- Thank you.

0:39:29 > 0:39:32- SHE LAUGHS - It'll be... It'll be lovely.

0:39:36 > 0:39:38Oh, God.

0:39:38 > 0:39:40Oh, no!

0:39:42 > 0:39:44I don't believe it.

0:39:44 > 0:39:46Oh, I don't like it. I don't like it.

0:39:48 > 0:39:51I just don't see why she'd think I'd like that.

0:39:51 > 0:39:53- SHE SOBS - Go try it on.

0:39:53 > 0:39:55It will look different.

0:39:55 > 0:39:59Will things look up when she tries the dress on?

0:39:59 > 0:40:02They certainly can't get much worse.

0:40:02 > 0:40:05You see, sometimes, like you say,

0:40:05 > 0:40:08things can look well nicer on than they do off, so...

0:40:09 > 0:40:11Wait there.

0:40:11 > 0:40:13Look.

0:40:13 > 0:40:16- It's gorgeous. - Oh, my God, Sian.- It's fabulous.

0:40:22 > 0:40:24Oh!

0:40:24 > 0:40:26Oh, I don't know.

0:40:26 > 0:40:28Oh, I don't know.

0:40:30 > 0:40:32- It's not me. - It's lovely, Sian.- It's not me.

0:40:32 > 0:40:35It looks lovely on you, absolutely beautiful.

0:40:35 > 0:40:38- I think it looks gorgeous. - Oh, I don't know.

0:40:38 > 0:40:41I'm not, like, dead happy with it.

0:40:41 > 0:40:44I'm not going to lie.

0:40:44 > 0:40:46- SHE SIGHS - Do you think it'll grow on you?

0:40:46 > 0:40:49No. I just feel, like, dead frumpy.

0:40:51 > 0:40:53It's not me at all.

0:40:53 > 0:40:55I don't believe that she'd pick this.

0:40:55 > 0:40:57It's not my style. It's not me.

0:40:57 > 0:41:01I can't see why she would look at this and go, "That's my Sianie."

0:41:01 > 0:41:03No. It's vile.

0:41:06 > 0:41:08What are you going to do, then?

0:41:08 > 0:41:11Kill her. Absolutely kill her.

0:41:11 > 0:41:15Your other option is to go into the shop and pick something else.

0:41:17 > 0:41:19Can she do that?

0:41:19 > 0:41:22Obviously it's got to be within the same price range,

0:41:22 > 0:41:26- or we'll have to ring Anna. - Which is?- £949, so...

0:41:26 > 0:41:30I'm going to have to have a look for something else and see.

0:41:40 > 0:41:43It's because she's had her heart set on that one in the other shop.

0:41:43 > 0:41:49Remember the first dress, with the side cut out?

0:41:49 > 0:41:51I don't know what she's going to do, then.

0:41:55 > 0:41:57Are you ready to come in, ladies?

0:42:02 > 0:42:05THEY LAUGH

0:42:07 > 0:42:11I love it. It's absolutely beautiful, Sian.

0:42:11 > 0:42:14All the detail here, and it's got colour, as well, in it.

0:42:14 > 0:42:16It is gorgeous.

0:42:16 > 0:42:18I do actually really like it.

0:42:18 > 0:42:21I think it's absolutely gorgeous.

0:42:21 > 0:42:24I'm going to kill her. I can't believe what she's done to me.

0:42:24 > 0:42:26I'm dreading the day tomorrow,

0:42:26 > 0:42:29because the hen night was wrong, this was wrong...

0:42:29 > 0:42:32What else? It comes in threes.

0:42:33 > 0:42:35Do you want me to ring Anna?

0:42:35 > 0:42:37I think someone should, yeah.

0:42:37 > 0:42:40RINGING TONE

0:42:42 > 0:42:45- Hello? Is that you, Hannah? - Yeah, it is.

0:42:45 > 0:42:47- What's up?- She tried the dress on,

0:42:47 > 0:42:49but she just feels like it's not her,

0:42:49 > 0:42:51so she's gone for a different dress.

0:42:56 > 0:42:58Are you OK?

0:43:07 > 0:43:09Anna?

0:43:11 > 0:43:13Yeah. Sorry.

0:43:16 > 0:43:18Er, hold on.

0:43:21 > 0:43:25She just feels like... The dress, it made her feel uncomfortable.

0:43:28 > 0:43:30OK. As long as she's comfortable, that's all right.

0:43:32 > 0:43:35- SHE SIGHS - All right, then.

0:43:35 > 0:43:37"Is it OK?"

0:43:37 > 0:43:39Yeah.

0:43:39 > 0:43:40"OK."

0:43:40 > 0:43:42Ta-ra.

0:43:44 > 0:43:45Oh...

0:43:45 > 0:43:48She didn't sound too happy then, did she?

0:43:51 > 0:43:54- She sounded a bit disappointed, didn't she?- She did say that.

0:43:57 > 0:44:01Yeah. No. I've got to... It's got to be this one.

0:44:01 > 0:44:03Yeah. I'm going for this.

0:44:08 > 0:44:11It's the night before the wedding...

0:44:12 > 0:44:16..and Anna's trying to put her last bit of love into the venue.

0:44:16 > 0:44:20But the earlier call has made her question how well she really knows her woman.

0:44:20 > 0:44:24Just today's been the worst day ever.

0:44:25 > 0:44:27It's just...

0:44:27 > 0:44:30I don't know. Just depressed me, today.

0:44:32 > 0:44:35The worst bit was when Hannah phoned me

0:44:35 > 0:44:37saying Sian didn't like the dress.

0:44:38 > 0:44:40I feel like not marrying her now.

0:44:49 > 0:44:53Three weeks of worry, stress and tears,

0:44:53 > 0:44:55and it's the day they say "I do".

0:44:58 > 0:45:01Anna's girly surprises start to turn up,

0:45:01 > 0:45:04as she's splashed out on makeup for her future wife.

0:45:04 > 0:45:07Oh, wow! Yay! Come in!

0:45:07 > 0:45:09Bring the two bridesmaids in for me, please.

0:45:09 > 0:45:11THEY LAUGH

0:45:11 > 0:45:14She's even remembered to capture the moment.

0:45:22 > 0:45:26SIAN GASPS Hello! Oh, my God!

0:45:26 > 0:45:27Ooh!

0:45:27 > 0:45:29Oh, my God!

0:45:29 > 0:45:32Oh, how gorgeous!

0:45:32 > 0:45:34SHE SOBS

0:46:04 > 0:46:07Even Anna and Jade are getting dolled up.

0:46:10 > 0:46:13THEY LAUGH AND SHOUT

0:46:14 > 0:46:16That is really lovely.

0:46:17 > 0:46:21More surprises. Anna's arranged vintage cars for her traditional bride.

0:46:21 > 0:46:23Ooh, Sian!

0:46:23 > 0:46:25Oh!

0:46:29 > 0:46:32Now everything's kind of fitting into place,

0:46:32 > 0:46:36and she's thought of everything. Little angel. Can't wait to see her.

0:46:38 > 0:46:40- CHEERING - All right, baby?

0:46:40 > 0:46:43All right? Where's my little brave boy?

0:46:43 > 0:46:46Hello, my little man!

0:46:47 > 0:46:49That looks boss!

0:46:49 > 0:46:52I done it, and with two minutes to spare.

0:47:09 > 0:47:11We're going to be so late, aren't we?

0:47:12 > 0:47:16That's the bride's prerogative, though, isn't it?

0:47:16 > 0:47:18Sian!

0:47:21 > 0:47:22Sian!

0:47:22 > 0:47:25Oh, my goodness, Madison, look at you!

0:47:48 > 0:47:50Oh, wow!

0:47:52 > 0:47:54So far, so feminine.

0:47:54 > 0:47:59But what will Sian make of the town hall she'll be taking her vows in?

0:47:59 > 0:48:01Bye!

0:48:01 > 0:48:03HORN BEEPS

0:48:04 > 0:48:06- I just want to know where it is. - I know.

0:48:09 > 0:48:12Maybe it's going to be, like, a hotel.

0:48:15 > 0:48:17I know it's going to be the registry office.

0:48:20 > 0:48:25- Hasn't he gone too far for it to be the registry office?- I don't know.

0:48:30 > 0:48:34- Oh, my God, it's the town hall. - Not really.

0:48:34 > 0:48:37It is. It's the town hall. Oh, my God, there's Annie!

0:48:40 > 0:48:41Oh, my God!

0:51:04 > 0:51:07- I love you.- I love you.

0:51:07 > 0:51:10- It's perfect.- You might divorce me when you see what's going on.

0:51:18 > 0:51:21HORN BEEPS

0:51:26 > 0:51:29Don't judge a book by its cover, Sian.

0:51:29 > 0:51:32It's going to be like an old building or something, isn't it?

0:51:34 > 0:51:35There's nothing round here!

0:51:35 > 0:51:38Nothing at all.

0:51:42 > 0:51:44Sian, you're worried. You're all worried.

0:51:44 > 0:51:47Of course I'm worried. Look where you've brought me!

0:51:50 > 0:51:54- You've got to go up in a lift. - Who the hell comes up in a lift

0:51:54 > 0:51:57- on their wedding do?- Me and you.

0:52:26 > 0:52:28Thank you!

0:52:28 > 0:52:30Ah, stop crying!

0:52:30 > 0:52:33- SHE SOBS - You don't have to cry.

0:52:33 > 0:52:38I just really... What the hell's that over there?

0:52:49 > 0:52:54Oh, my God, Anna, this is just un-... Like, unreal.

0:52:54 > 0:52:58Unreal. When I was thinking I was getting married,

0:52:58 > 0:53:01I'd never have thought of anything like this.

0:53:01 > 0:53:03Who would have seven Chinese chairs...

0:53:03 > 0:53:06Eight. Eight Chinese chairs.

0:53:06 > 0:53:09I wouldn't have thought of anything like this.

0:53:09 > 0:53:11Thank you.

0:53:11 > 0:53:13You're worth it, OK?

0:53:13 > 0:53:15Oh, baby, I love who you are!

0:53:15 > 0:53:18You're the best! Thank you.

0:53:20 > 0:53:23I'm proud of myself. Made up.

0:53:24 > 0:53:27It's been a roller coaster. I haven't cried for years,

0:53:27 > 0:53:30and I've cried every day doing this. Every day.

0:53:30 > 0:53:33Most days. I was in tears yesterday.

0:53:33 > 0:53:35But it's worth it.

0:53:35 > 0:53:38It's been amazing.

0:53:49 > 0:53:53I'd like to announce the newlyweds downstairs.

0:54:07 > 0:54:09and all in the name of love.

0:54:09 > 0:54:13I think today she's pulled it off perfect.

0:54:13 > 0:54:17I really do believe that, like. She couldn't have done better.

0:54:17 > 0:54:20PARTY MUSIC PLAYS

0:54:22 > 0:54:25Absence makes the heart grow fonder, doesn't it?

0:54:25 > 0:54:28Especially when you've got this at the end of it.

0:54:28 > 0:54:30Amazing. It's fabulous.

0:54:30 > 0:54:32I wouldn't have had this day if it weren't for Anna.

0:54:32 > 0:54:35I love her more than anything in the world.

0:54:35 > 0:54:39I couldn't ask for a better person to be marrying today.

0:54:39 > 0:54:41THEY CHEER

0:54:41 > 0:54:45I can't even explain how proud I am, cos she'll get a fat head.

0:54:47 > 0:54:49- We pulled it off.- We pulled it off.

0:54:55 > 0:54:57# It was that one kiss from you

0:54:59 > 0:55:02# That changed my life in just a minute, girl...

0:55:02 > 0:55:04Today has just completely blown me away.

0:55:04 > 0:55:07Every single thing about today has just been perfect.

0:55:07 > 0:55:12'She just outdone anything that anyone could have imagined.'

0:55:12 > 0:55:14I'm just so happy. I'm amazed with that.

0:55:14 > 0:55:17Obviously I've got to marry someone I can, er...

0:55:17 > 0:55:20She's done this for me. I just can't thank her,

0:55:20 > 0:55:22and even Jade, enough.

0:55:43 > 0:55:46Ahh!

0:55:51 > 0:55:54Next week - the stakes couldn't be any higher.

0:55:54 > 0:55:56Here's to having a second chance at life!

0:55:56 > 0:55:59We didn't know if she'd die, if she'd end up paralysed.

0:55:59 > 0:56:02Will the groom put a smile on her face...

0:56:02 > 0:56:04This is my wedding day! It's not a joke!

0:56:04 > 0:56:06..and survive the sister-in-law from hell...

0:56:06 > 0:56:09Get this sorted, or you'll see my bad attitude!

0:56:09 > 0:56:10..before the bride loses control?

0:56:10 > 0:56:14Not many women would let a rugby player do the wedding for them.

0:56:14 > 0:56:16Definitely buy more than knickers now.

0:56:16 > 0:56:21- Tell Monobrow I'll see her on Thursday.- I don't want to get married now! It's just a sham!
