0:00:03 > 0:00:05Five years of Don't Tell The Bride.

0:00:05 > 0:00:0748 brave brides.

0:00:08 > 0:00:1048 game-on grooms.

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

0:00:13 > 0:00:16And one near-miss.

0:00:17 > 0:00:21- Please, just get on the plane. - I'm not coming. Game over.

0:00:23 > 0:00:27Now we're back for a whole new rollercoaster ride.

0:00:27 > 0:00:32As 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 > 0:00:40- The grooms get three weeks... - Go away!- ..And £12,000.

0:00:40 > 0:00:4212 Gs, man!

0:00:42 > 0:00:44- Are you ready? - Born ready, mate!

0:00:44 > 0:00:49And their brides get no say in how it's spent.

0:00:49 > 0:00:50I don't want to do this any more.

0:00:50 > 0:00:52So saddle up for tears...

0:00:54 > 0:00:58- Tantrums.- Why the hell are we at Thorpe Park on my wedding day?!

0:00:58 > 0:01:00..And total meltdowns.

0:01:00 > 0:01:04I can't do a wedding for her. I can't do anything.

0:01:04 > 0:01:09Tonight, the pressure's on for Gloucester rugby lad Josh.

0:01:09 > 0:01:12What is wrong with that? It's a dress. It's green.

0:01:12 > 0:01:14I hate shopping. I hate shopping!

0:01:14 > 0:01:17..Who's desperate to impress his demanding bride-to-be.

0:01:17 > 0:01:20I don't want to get married at a hotel.

0:01:20 > 0:01:22It's what I want, it's my wedding!

0:01:22 > 0:01:25Stacie's used to being in control.

0:01:25 > 0:01:29Josh! Can you make me some breakfast, please?

0:01:29 > 0:01:32But now she's no control over the biggest day of her life.

0:01:32 > 0:01:34It's perfect. What's he thinking though?

0:01:34 > 0:01:38Will our groom nail it... under the weight of expectation?

0:01:38 > 0:01:40I'm panicking now, Dar.

0:01:40 > 0:01:43I dunno! Oh, my God! If I get it wrong...

0:01:43 > 0:01:47Or will his good intentions be undone by bad decisions?

0:01:47 > 0:01:50There would be no wedding if no guests were there.

0:01:50 > 0:01:53We'll get there just before everyone else at this rate.

0:01:53 > 0:01:59Will this devoted prince give this demanding princess the most romantic day of her life?

0:01:59 > 0:02:03Can we just take a breather and just remember it is all about me?

0:02:15 > 0:02:17That's all our 2p's!

0:02:17 > 0:02:22Four vodka and Cokes and three pints don't cost £60, and that's why we can't save for a wedding.

0:02:22 > 0:02:2723-year-old trainee nurse Stacie is getting ready to move out of the house she shares

0:02:27 > 0:02:32with 22-year-old forklift driver Josh, so he can arrange her dream wedding.

0:02:32 > 0:02:35- Are you going to miss me? - Lots and lots.

0:02:35 > 0:02:38She makes me laugh, she winds me up.

0:02:38 > 0:02:41She does my head in. I can't be without her. Even her annoying side I love!

0:02:41 > 0:02:46He sits on me and feeds me doughnuts, that's why I got fat so I don't run away and leave you.

0:02:46 > 0:02:49You try and love a woman, they throw it back in your face.

0:02:49 > 0:02:54I've been one of those girls that are like, "I don't need a man, I can do it all by myself",

0:02:54 > 0:02:57but I think I would actually be really lost without him.

0:02:57 > 0:03:01They met five years ago in a nightclub in Gloucester

0:03:01 > 0:03:04and last year Josh finally popped the question.

0:03:04 > 0:03:07He put candles...

0:03:07 > 0:03:10Right where that dog poo is. I put candles...

0:03:10 > 0:03:12- Will you marry me? - And then took her upstairs.

0:03:12 > 0:03:16I was in that room there and looked out on him. Aw!

0:03:16 > 0:03:18He's set the bar now.

0:03:18 > 0:03:22He's shown his romantic streak, so now he's got to improve on it.

0:03:22 > 0:03:28They live together with Josh's parents and two younger brothers, while they save for their own place.

0:03:28 > 0:03:30Is it too hot for you?

0:03:30 > 0:03:34Stacie may be a trainee nurse, but she's a fully-qualified princess.

0:03:34 > 0:03:39Stacie can be a nightmare, big time, when she's not getting her own way. Definitely.

0:03:39 > 0:03:43The first couple of months we was fighting and I was like, "I'm not having this",

0:03:43 > 0:03:47then she just ground me down, ground me down. In the end, I was just underneath the cover,

0:03:47 > 0:03:50crying, just snivelling.

0:03:50 > 0:03:52In a nice way!

0:03:52 > 0:03:57In contrast, devoted Josh will do anything to please his demanding bride-to-be.

0:03:57 > 0:04:01Josh! Can you make me some breakfast, please?

0:04:01 > 0:04:06In general, Stacie does pretty much get what Stacie wants, definitely!

0:04:06 > 0:04:09- Here you go, my love. - A princess should be treated like a princess.

0:04:09 > 0:04:14When buy her something nice, the look on her face, it makes it worth it, really.

0:04:14 > 0:04:19When he's not doing everything for Stacie, Josh devotes himself to his other love.

0:04:21 > 0:04:22Rugby.

0:04:22 > 0:04:26It's a great game, a great sport, it's a really good release.

0:04:26 > 0:04:29Something to look forward to. You get to see your mates.

0:04:29 > 0:04:34Josh spends whatever free time he has hanging out with his team-mates at the local rugby club.

0:04:34 > 0:04:37I think I just enjoy going up there and just being...

0:04:37 > 0:04:40the atmosphere, and stuff like that.

0:04:45 > 0:04:48They are loud.

0:04:48 > 0:04:49They get naked all the time.

0:04:51 > 0:04:53It's all testosterone.

0:04:55 > 0:04:59Josh is half-Irish, and Stacie's dad is from Jamaica,

0:04:59 > 0:05:04but our little princess has her heart set on a very traditional English wedding.

0:05:04 > 0:05:10My perfect wedding would be a pamper session downstairs. You know, facials, massages...

0:05:10 > 0:05:12So there are a few things Stacie wouldn't mind him knowing.

0:05:12 > 0:05:18The horse and carriage is then going to take us to St Leonard's church...

0:05:18 > 0:05:23Can Josh possibly give her everything she wants? Well, he'd better!

0:05:23 > 0:05:28Oh, and I want people ringing bells. So the whole place knows me and Josh are getting married.

0:05:28 > 0:05:32This'll be a time to show it's been done, and it's been done in my time.

0:05:32 > 0:05:34You haven't got to worry, you haven't got to stress.

0:05:34 > 0:05:39I can't believe you're getting married, Josh! You can't even organise a piss-up!

0:05:41 > 0:05:43I feel sick. I really feel sick.

0:05:43 > 0:05:45Come on, it'll be OK.

0:05:45 > 0:05:47It's time to say goodbye.

0:05:47 > 0:05:51The next time they'll see each other will be at the wedding.

0:05:55 > 0:05:56Come on, then.

0:05:59 > 0:06:01- Love you.- Me too. - See you at the wedding.

0:06:01 > 0:06:02See you at the wedding.

0:06:02 > 0:06:05See you later, babe. Love you. Bye!

0:06:09 > 0:06:12All of a mile down the road, and for the first time in two years,

0:06:12 > 0:06:15Stacie's moving back in with her mum, Lesley.

0:06:17 > 0:06:19I'm home!

0:06:19 > 0:06:20Oh, boy!

0:06:21 > 0:06:24Josh is moving into a crash pad in the centre of Gloucester

0:06:24 > 0:06:28so he can be nearer his best man, 22-year-old Darren.

0:06:28 > 0:06:32- This is it, mate. - Needs a lick of paint or summat.

0:06:32 > 0:06:37Darren is a team leader at a care home, so let's hope he'll be using those organisational skills

0:06:37 > 0:06:39to help Josh plan the wedding.

0:06:39 > 0:06:41We'll have to spruce this place up a bit, I reckon.

0:06:41 > 0:06:46Don't worry about it being bare! It's all about "fung shway" and all that, mate.

0:06:46 > 0:06:51The success of Stacie's big day lies squarely in the hands of these two.

0:06:51 > 0:06:53- That ain't a double.- It is!

0:06:53 > 0:06:57..But between them, they can't even make a bed!

0:06:57 > 0:07:00- Put it on and just try. - It ain't gonna fit down here, is it?

0:07:00 > 0:07:03What are you doing? Get in the bottom corner!

0:07:03 > 0:07:05I'm going to get a drink.

0:07:05 > 0:07:07Yes, boys, that'll help(!)

0:07:12 > 0:07:16Josh hasn't been gone long, but Stacie's already laying down the law -

0:07:16 > 0:07:20this time to long-suffering mum Lesley and her half-sister Zoe.

0:07:20 > 0:07:23I want Zoe to hold my train behind me. Zoe's not going first.

0:07:23 > 0:07:25It's what I want. It's my wedding!

0:07:25 > 0:07:31Can we, like, take a breather and just remember it's all about me?

0:07:31 > 0:07:33..And Josh, it's, like, my day.

0:07:33 > 0:07:36If you think those aren't any good, what do you want?

0:07:36 > 0:07:42A stately home, not a hotel. I don't want to get married or have my venue at a hotel.

0:07:42 > 0:07:45Well, no-one's telling you it's the Black Swan, or something.

0:07:45 > 0:07:47I don't want to get married at a hotel!

0:07:47 > 0:07:51When you have that entrance, I want that entrance at a stately home, huge.

0:07:53 > 0:07:59Josh is convinced he's found the perfect venue to impress his beloved bride-to-be for her big day.

0:07:59 > 0:08:03- You've got the bars already there. - Everybody knows where it is. - Easy to get to.

0:08:03 > 0:08:07And the guests could all stay over afterwards, too...

0:08:07 > 0:08:10at his local hotel.

0:08:10 > 0:08:13- Hiya, all right. - Hi, I'm Josh, how are you doing?

0:08:13 > 0:08:18Gents, this is the Moat Suite. The ideal room for your civil wedding reception.

0:08:18 > 0:08:22It looks quite nice in here. She likes all them fairy lights, stuff like that.

0:08:22 > 0:08:23Oh, look, it's lush.

0:08:23 > 0:08:29Stacie's thinking more stained glass than fairy lights at her more traditional ceremony

0:08:29 > 0:08:31at their local church.

0:08:31 > 0:08:33- This is very picturesque, isn't it? - Yeah.

0:08:33 > 0:08:38- It makes it a little bit more special, doesn't it, in a church? - It makes the wedding real.

0:08:38 > 0:08:41- Being married... - Listening to those bells.

0:08:41 > 0:08:43- Being married by a priest. - Vicar.

0:08:43 > 0:08:45Or a registrar at a hotel.

0:08:47 > 0:08:49Look! It's huge.

0:08:49 > 0:08:51So this is where I'd walk, wouldn't I?

0:08:51 > 0:08:56- I'd walk in here... - All your guests would fit. - Yeah, you'd fit all of them in here.

0:08:56 > 0:08:59It's really peaceful here, isn't it?

0:08:59 > 0:09:02I like the beams and the high ceiling.

0:09:02 > 0:09:04- Very, very traditional.- Yeah.

0:09:04 > 0:09:07It just feels like the only right way to get married is at a church.

0:09:07 > 0:09:09It's what you dream of when you're a little girl.

0:09:10 > 0:09:15She probably also dreamed of a groom who knows what kind of wedding she wants.

0:09:15 > 0:09:19So this is the Hatherley Suite, this is would be the ideal room for your evening reception.

0:09:19 > 0:09:22An alternative venue for the civil ceremony as well.

0:09:22 > 0:09:23What do you reckon, Dar'?

0:09:23 > 0:09:26- It's a nice size room.- I like it.

0:09:26 > 0:09:34The hotel's all-inclusive deal might be a tempting offer, but the boys are finally coming to their senses.

0:09:34 > 0:09:38It's just one of those ones that...it's all right.

0:09:38 > 0:09:43It's adequate, sort of thing. I'm happy, but not like, overjoyed.

0:09:43 > 0:09:48- That's not a bad shout, I think you're right.- I don't think you should set your heart on this place.

0:09:48 > 0:09:51It's the first place you've seen.

0:09:51 > 0:09:54That's just hit home, then. You want it to be a wow, don't you?

0:09:54 > 0:09:57Wow. Oh my gosh!

0:09:57 > 0:10:01Wow! I'm going to get married where lords and ladies lived!

0:10:03 > 0:10:10Stacie has found one of the most spectacular country houses in the Cotswolds for her ideal reception.

0:10:10 > 0:10:14She's brought Mum and half-sister Zoe for a tour of Tortworth Court.

0:10:14 > 0:10:18I want a banner up there saying "Stacie and Josh".

0:10:18 > 0:10:23Oh, and I want, on the flag, a picture of my face, and Josh can be in the corner.

0:10:23 > 0:10:27Look through there. It's stunning! This is where I want it.

0:10:29 > 0:10:33I prefer this than a stately home.

0:10:33 > 0:10:34What is a stately home?

0:10:36 > 0:10:40- That's, like, one down. - Yeah, I want this one.

0:10:40 > 0:10:41Wow!

0:10:41 > 0:10:45Oh, it's got, like, its own bar!

0:10:45 > 0:10:49- I don't think it's your OWN bar. - It is, it's the bar for in here.

0:10:49 > 0:10:52So this would be our own little bar. I love it!

0:10:52 > 0:10:53Mum!

0:10:53 > 0:11:01I want everyone to be waiting outside, stood out here whilst I gallop in on my horse and carriage.

0:11:01 > 0:11:07And then we'd go to have our champagne and canapes outside.

0:11:07 > 0:11:09- You ever tasted canapes? - No, what is a canape?

0:11:09 > 0:11:13- Like, erm, vol-au-vents! - What's a vol-au-vent?

0:11:13 > 0:11:16We could be here a while.

0:11:16 > 0:11:17But speaking of vol-au-vents...

0:11:20 > 0:11:26A few miles down the road, our own flaky dish has found a venue much nearer the mark.

0:11:26 > 0:11:30Where else would you marry your princess but in a castle?

0:11:30 > 0:11:33- First impressions, Darren? - Yeah, looks nice, doesn't it?

0:11:33 > 0:11:35Looks unreal, Dar'.

0:11:35 > 0:11:38Hi, good afternoon. Welcome to Thornbury Castle.

0:11:38 > 0:11:40- This is nice. - This is our lovely Tudor Hall.

0:11:40 > 0:11:43Some people get married in Tudor costume. Had you thought of that?

0:11:43 > 0:11:46Not really my style. Doesn't bring out my eyes enough.

0:11:46 > 0:11:49See her coming down the aisle and get your bow and arrow out.

0:11:49 > 0:11:52Always got to ruin it, haven't you?

0:11:52 > 0:11:54Oh, my gosh.

0:11:54 > 0:11:56Wow.

0:11:56 > 0:11:59Look, you get a little complimentary basket!

0:12:00 > 0:12:03Obviously you've got the views...

0:12:03 > 0:12:05Oh, my God!

0:12:06 > 0:12:11Mum, look. Now I've seen something I really want,

0:12:11 > 0:12:15I'm scared. What if he picks something different?

0:12:15 > 0:12:17- It's nice.- It's perfect.

0:12:17 > 0:12:20What's he thinking though?

0:12:20 > 0:12:25Josh is thinking he may have found the perfect venue.

0:12:25 > 0:12:28But how much does it cost to hire a castle?

0:12:28 > 0:12:32- We need to make this dream come true.- You can make my dream come true by talking about price.

0:12:32 > 0:12:36This is Stacie's dream. My dream's the price at the minute.

0:12:36 > 0:12:41If you're talking two days over a weekend, you're talking in the region of £22,000 for two days.

0:12:43 > 0:12:46£22,000!

0:12:46 > 0:12:48Plus food and drink for his 100 guests

0:12:48 > 0:12:53means this could set Josh back nearly three times his £12,000 budget.

0:12:54 > 0:12:57Let's just hire a castle for a weekend for £22,000!

0:12:57 > 0:12:58I know, man!

0:12:58 > 0:13:01You know, you're going to have to try and work around it.

0:13:04 > 0:13:06# I need a dollar, dollar

0:13:06 > 0:13:08# A dollar, that's what I need... #

0:13:08 > 0:13:12I'm ringing round trying to find somewhere for my wedding reception.

0:13:12 > 0:13:16Our Gloucester lad may be desperate to do right by his bride, but four days in,

0:13:16 > 0:13:19he still hasn't even got a venue for the wedding.

0:13:19 > 0:13:22Thanks anyway. Bye.

0:13:22 > 0:13:23Nope.

0:13:23 > 0:13:27But Josh may have figured out how to bag that fairytale castle after all.

0:13:27 > 0:13:29Hi, Jonathan.

0:13:29 > 0:13:31Basically, can I book the castle for the 18th?

0:13:31 > 0:13:37Hiring it for two hours instead of two days means he can get it for a fraction of the cost.

0:13:37 > 0:13:40£1,915.

0:13:40 > 0:13:44Thanks very much, Jonathan. Thanks very much. Bye-bye.

0:13:44 > 0:13:49Problem is, he'll now need a separate venue for the evening reception.

0:13:49 > 0:13:54Have you got anything available on that day, possibly to have my reception there?

0:13:54 > 0:13:56At short notice, on a Saturday... in June?

0:13:56 > 0:14:00I'm getting married on the 18th of this month. I know it's really short notice...

0:14:00 > 0:14:04Looks like our eager-to-please groom is all out of luck.

0:14:04 > 0:14:06OK, thanks very much.

0:14:06 > 0:14:07HE SIGHS

0:14:09 > 0:14:10Joking me!

0:14:10 > 0:14:12Panicking now.

0:14:12 > 0:14:17After six hours of phone calls and over 30 closed doors,

0:14:17 > 0:14:20the lads are fast running out of options.

0:14:24 > 0:14:28But there's just one place left to try,

0:14:28 > 0:14:30and it's always been there for Josh in the past.

0:14:36 > 0:14:39If they say no here now, there's no wedding.

0:14:39 > 0:14:40..Basically.

0:14:40 > 0:14:42Seriously?

0:14:42 > 0:14:44Let's go and have a look.

0:14:44 > 0:14:47Let's go see if it's available then.

0:14:47 > 0:14:48Come on.

0:14:50 > 0:14:51You all right?

0:14:51 > 0:14:54Mag, I've come to see if you've got the 18th June available for me

0:14:54 > 0:14:57to have a venue here, please. My wedding.

0:14:57 > 0:14:58- Say no!- Don't say no.

0:14:58 > 0:14:59Which date?

0:14:59 > 0:15:0118th, please. Saturday.

0:15:01 > 0:15:02Saturday. Yep.

0:15:02 > 0:15:03- Is it free? Is it?- Yep.

0:15:03 > 0:15:06- Do you want me to book it in then? - Yes, please, Mag.

0:15:06 > 0:15:09We've got somewhere. Now we've just got to make it amazing.

0:15:09 > 0:15:11It's "somewhere", but will Stacie like it?

0:15:11 > 0:15:14Do you know what? Now I'm here, I'm nervous now.

0:15:14 > 0:15:15- Shut up.- You shut up!

0:15:15 > 0:15:19It's literally going to have to be amazing now. The reality has hit me.

0:15:19 > 0:15:23I've got to make it look like it's not the rugby club I come to every week.

0:15:23 > 0:15:24I'm a bit worried now.

0:15:24 > 0:15:28If you're like this, you're actually, like, "Oh, my God."

0:15:28 > 0:15:31So if you're like that, what's she going to be like?

0:15:31 > 0:15:35He's got a point. Stacie's going to be "actually, like" livid.

0:15:35 > 0:15:38Still, the rugby club is free to members,

0:15:38 > 0:15:43which means Josh has spent just over £1,900 on the venues.

0:15:43 > 0:15:46If we don't get this bang on, like, spot on,

0:15:46 > 0:15:48we are in a world of hurt.

0:15:50 > 0:15:52I don't know what he's doing.

0:15:52 > 0:15:56Stacie's in her own world of hurt back at her mum's.

0:15:56 > 0:15:58I just want to talk to him now.

0:16:02 > 0:16:05I knew you were going to find it tough without him.

0:16:05 > 0:16:08It's only been one week.

0:16:08 > 0:16:09I know.

0:16:11 > 0:16:15Maybe once you get going, have a look at your brides' dresses...

0:16:17 > 0:16:18..You know...

0:16:21 > 0:16:22..You'll be fine.

0:16:28 > 0:16:29You'll be fine.

0:16:29 > 0:16:31Won't you, eh?

0:16:33 > 0:16:36No more tears, Stace. Come and give your mum a hug.

0:16:36 > 0:16:39It'll be fine.

0:16:49 > 0:16:54It's day five, and so far our Gloucester forklift driver has booked a castle ceremony

0:16:54 > 0:16:59with a local rugby club reception that is hardly fit for his princess.

0:16:59 > 0:17:02Josh has decided to liven up the place with a theme,

0:17:02 > 0:17:06and he wants it to celebrate his Irish and Stacie's Jamaican roots.

0:17:06 > 0:17:08"Jamirish", if you will.

0:17:08 > 0:17:12I'm excited because I'm creating, like, a party vibe.

0:17:12 > 0:17:13Well, hopefully creating one.

0:17:13 > 0:17:16I hope it goes well, because Irish people like to have a party,

0:17:16 > 0:17:19Jamaican people like to have a party. So it'll be good.

0:17:21 > 0:17:24Well, I suppose you can't fault the logic.

0:17:24 > 0:17:27Josh has gathered his team-mates to pick their brains.

0:17:27 > 0:17:28Shouldn't take too long(!)

0:17:28 > 0:17:30Get your hand out your pants.

0:17:31 > 0:17:37Basically, we're having, like, an Irish theme and a Jamaican theme...

0:17:37 > 0:17:41You're BLEEP, man! I knew you was going to be like this!

0:17:41 > 0:17:43Why have you got an Irish and Jamaican theme?

0:17:43 > 0:17:46You can't do that. Scrap that.

0:17:46 > 0:17:49What are you going to do? Spicy lucky charms?

0:17:49 > 0:17:51LAUGHTER

0:17:51 > 0:17:54They may all laugh, but Josh has it all figured out.

0:17:54 > 0:17:56He won't just transform the hall.

0:17:56 > 0:17:59He'll also turn the club's skittle alley into an Irish pub

0:17:59 > 0:18:03and the outside patio into a Caribbean beach.

0:18:03 > 0:18:04So...any thoughts?

0:18:08 > 0:18:10Anyone?

0:18:11 > 0:18:13What's an Irish theme?

0:18:13 > 0:18:16They've got leprechauns. What else is there?

0:18:16 > 0:18:19With his little helpers away in fairyland,

0:18:19 > 0:18:22it looks like Josh is on his own with this one.

0:18:27 > 0:18:31It's week two and Josh has now spent over £4,000

0:18:31 > 0:18:34on venues, catering, photographer and flowers.

0:18:34 > 0:18:36But his biggest challenge is yet to come.

0:18:36 > 0:18:39Somehow our groom, who's desperate to get everything right,

0:18:39 > 0:18:42has to find his demanding bride her perfect wedding dress.

0:18:42 > 0:18:44- Do you know her size?- No.

0:18:44 > 0:18:47I've not really bought a bride's dress before, mate.

0:18:47 > 0:18:50So you don't know the size, you don't know the style.

0:18:50 > 0:18:51Nope.

0:18:51 > 0:18:54So what are you actually looking for then in here?

0:18:54 > 0:18:55A dress?

0:18:55 > 0:18:57Hi, love. All right? How are you doing?

0:18:57 > 0:18:59Fine, thank you.

0:18:59 > 0:19:01- We're looking for a wedding dress. - OK.

0:19:01 > 0:19:04- Look how many there are. - There are quite a few!

0:19:04 > 0:19:06Have you got any ideas what you want?

0:19:06 > 0:19:07- No.- No?

0:19:07 > 0:19:10Something that's strapless. That's as much as I know.

0:19:10 > 0:19:11Well, that's a good start!

0:19:11 > 0:19:13- And maybe white.- Maybe white?

0:19:13 > 0:19:15I don't know. White or ivory.

0:19:15 > 0:19:17Most girls go for ivory. What size is she?

0:19:17 > 0:19:19I don't know!

0:19:19 > 0:19:2214 or summat. Is she bigger than that?

0:19:22 > 0:19:23I don't know.

0:19:23 > 0:19:25What about something like that?

0:19:25 > 0:19:27- I haven't got a clue. - What about this one?

0:19:27 > 0:19:30This would probably be a nice fit on her.

0:19:30 > 0:19:32A bit more interesting, the skirt.

0:19:32 > 0:19:33Yeah, that's a bit better.

0:19:33 > 0:19:35This is your castle dress, yeah?

0:19:35 > 0:19:38Oh, God. I don't even know.

0:19:38 > 0:19:41Oh, my God. I've looked at three. And I don't know.

0:19:42 > 0:19:47The girls are heading to a boutique bridal dress shop in Cheltenham

0:19:47 > 0:19:51to see what, in an ideal world, this princess would like to wear on her big day.

0:19:51 > 0:19:54- Hello.- Hi! Come on in!- Hiya.

0:19:54 > 0:19:56This one's nice.

0:19:56 > 0:19:58That's a gorgeous one.

0:19:58 > 0:19:59Stacie, I like this one.

0:19:59 > 0:20:01I like that one.

0:20:01 > 0:20:02Are these all mine?

0:20:02 > 0:20:04These are all yours to try.

0:20:04 > 0:20:05- Are you ready?- Yeah.

0:20:05 > 0:20:07OK, in you go, Stacie.

0:20:09 > 0:20:11Come on, is she ready yet?

0:20:13 > 0:20:16Oh, my God. That is gorgeous.

0:20:16 > 0:20:17I know!

0:20:17 > 0:20:19I want this one.

0:20:19 > 0:20:21It does everything so perfect.

0:20:21 > 0:20:23Look how it pulls me in.

0:20:23 > 0:20:26It's lovely. No, that's lovely.

0:20:26 > 0:20:29My armpit fat's a little bit squidge squidge but not as big as I thought.

0:20:31 > 0:20:33Do you want to see it with the veil over?

0:20:33 > 0:20:35- Can you do that?- Yeah.

0:20:35 > 0:20:37- Do people do that?- Yeah.

0:20:37 > 0:20:38That's what you're meant to do.

0:20:38 > 0:20:40And Josh picks it up.

0:20:40 > 0:20:41No, I'm supposed to do that.

0:20:41 > 0:20:43No. Josh does...

0:20:43 > 0:20:44Wow.

0:20:46 > 0:20:48I can't believe I'm in a wedding dress.

0:20:48 > 0:20:50I can't believe you're in a wedding dress.

0:20:50 > 0:20:54The first dress is a hit but there's one style

0:20:54 > 0:20:57that she feels wouldn't be quite right for her special day.

0:20:57 > 0:20:59It's really booby.

0:20:59 > 0:21:04It makes me feel like I want to go partying and flash off my knockers.

0:21:04 > 0:21:06My whammers.

0:21:06 > 0:21:08Look at the whammers on it!

0:21:08 > 0:21:10We'd have to sort them out.

0:21:10 > 0:21:12It's the sweetheart that I didn't want.

0:21:12 > 0:21:15My boobs are just, like, screaming, "Let me out!"

0:21:15 > 0:21:21So, the boys just have to avoid that booby sweetheart neckline. Simple.

0:21:21 > 0:21:25All I can see is white. White, white, white, white, white.

0:21:25 > 0:21:28Or it would be if they knew what one was.

0:21:28 > 0:21:30- It's called a what?- Sweetheart.

0:21:30 > 0:21:32Sweet Heart? They're all called that?

0:21:32 > 0:21:36No, just the ones that are this shape, like a heart.

0:21:36 > 0:21:37Oh, right. I can see it now.

0:21:37 > 0:21:41I didn't even know the sweetheart bit was there but it's nice, yeah.

0:21:41 > 0:21:42Oh, my God. I don't know what to do.

0:21:42 > 0:21:45Think of the flowers. The rose looks good.

0:21:45 > 0:21:49Neither of them, thanks. I thought it was bad enough in the first shop.

0:21:51 > 0:21:54Back in Cheltenham, Stacie's found her dream dress.

0:21:54 > 0:21:56An A-line halter neck with ruching,

0:21:56 > 0:21:59beautiful lace detailing, a long train.

0:21:59 > 0:22:03And best of all, support for those "whammers".

0:22:03 > 0:22:06This is the kind of dress Josh needs to find.

0:22:06 > 0:22:08It's amazing.

0:22:08 > 0:22:09- This is the one.- This is the one.

0:22:09 > 0:22:12- Yeah?- Yeah. I love it.- I love it!

0:22:12 > 0:22:16- Nice shape. - Yeah. I love that one.

0:22:16 > 0:22:19We have got a nice long train on this one with a bit more detail.

0:22:20 > 0:22:22Wow!

0:22:22 > 0:22:25And this is what I didn't want, I didn't want lace and stuff on it.

0:22:25 > 0:22:28I think this is my favourite one.

0:22:28 > 0:22:30I love it. And the boys aren't popping out.

0:22:30 > 0:22:31There you go, madam.

0:22:31 > 0:22:34Thank you. See this? This is what it should be like.

0:22:34 > 0:22:36This is my life.

0:22:36 > 0:22:37To the bride!

0:22:37 > 0:22:39To the future Mrs Ahern.

0:22:42 > 0:22:44Desperate to find Stacie's perfect dress,

0:22:44 > 0:22:46Josh is now onto his third shop.

0:22:47 > 0:22:49'Eh up. Here we go again.

0:22:49 > 0:22:50HE SNEEZES

0:22:50 > 0:22:51Bless you.

0:22:51 > 0:22:54Surprised he's not coming out in a rash.

0:22:54 > 0:22:56- Oh, my God.- If I get it wrong...

0:22:57 > 0:23:00No, but the thing is, right, would you agree to this?

0:23:00 > 0:23:02It doesn't matter if you've got it wrong.

0:23:02 > 0:23:05The time and effort that you're putting in to pick a dress.

0:23:05 > 0:23:08You've been to three different places, put hours and hours in.

0:23:08 > 0:23:11If you get it wrong, she should appreciate the time

0:23:11 > 0:23:13you put in to try and get it right.

0:23:13 > 0:23:15- Have you never met Stacie? - Yes, I have.

0:23:16 > 0:23:17Wow.

0:23:17 > 0:23:20I dunno!

0:23:21 > 0:23:22I do like it.

0:23:22 > 0:23:27Josh is finally tempted by a dress.

0:23:27 > 0:23:30But hold on, isn't that the dreaded sweetheart cut?

0:23:31 > 0:23:33Right, I'll get that one then.

0:23:33 > 0:23:35Congratulations!

0:23:35 > 0:23:37Oh, my God. I just bought a wedding dress!

0:23:37 > 0:23:42Josh has sweated, strained and finally spent £1,063

0:23:42 > 0:23:46on Stacie's dress, veil, tiara and shoes.

0:23:46 > 0:23:48Bless him. He did his best.

0:23:48 > 0:23:53Never, ever, ever am I coming near a wedding shop again.

0:23:53 > 0:23:55What if she don't like it, Darren?

0:23:58 > 0:24:0110 days in and over at Stacie's house,

0:24:01 > 0:24:04our princess is getting ready for her other big day.

0:24:04 > 0:24:06It's time for her hen do.

0:24:06 > 0:24:10I hope Joshua's... I hope it's something fun.

0:24:10 > 0:24:14Me and my friends have a good night wherever we go,

0:24:14 > 0:24:17but Gloucester would be not good.

0:24:17 > 0:24:20I'll punish him on the wedding night.

0:24:20 > 0:24:21No room for mistakes then.

0:24:21 > 0:24:25Josh has arranged a day out for Stacie and her hens.

0:24:25 > 0:24:28I got this T-shirt for her that warns lads that she's getting married.

0:24:28 > 0:24:30So none of them go near her.

0:24:30 > 0:24:33He wants to make sure there's something for everyone,

0:24:33 > 0:24:35including Stacie's mum, Lesley.

0:24:35 > 0:24:37Shall I wear the orange one?

0:24:37 > 0:24:38That's a bit short.

0:24:38 > 0:24:40- Do I look like a whale?- No!

0:24:40 > 0:24:44I don't know why I bothered buying that outfit - you can't even see it!

0:24:44 > 0:24:46GIGGLING

0:24:48 > 0:24:51Yes, ladies, that's a bit more dignified.

0:24:51 > 0:24:54Only the driver Josh has organised knows what's in store.

0:24:54 > 0:24:56Let's go.

0:24:57 > 0:24:59I'm nervous.

0:24:59 > 0:25:02I want to know where I'm going.

0:25:02 > 0:25:05Let's hope it's nowhere rubbish like, say, bingo.

0:25:05 > 0:25:08SQUEALING AND LAUGHING

0:25:09 > 0:25:11Yep, it's the bingo.

0:25:11 > 0:25:14You might as well turn around cos I'm not getting out!

0:25:14 > 0:25:17Oh, Josh, you little shit.

0:25:20 > 0:25:23On a street not far away, and watched on by Mum,

0:25:23 > 0:25:26Bananaman has come of age.

0:25:26 > 0:25:27It's time for Josh's stag do.

0:25:27 > 0:25:29They're a good bunch of lads really,

0:25:29 > 0:25:32but a bloody nightmare when they've all had a few.

0:25:32 > 0:25:34Oh, dear.

0:25:34 > 0:25:38Josh is taking the whole team to watch the Barbarians play Wales.

0:25:42 > 0:25:45Go on! Come on! Go on!

0:25:47 > 0:25:49CHEERING

0:25:51 > 0:25:54Four and two, 42.

0:25:55 > 0:25:57Eight and five, 85.

0:25:57 > 0:25:58(I'm bored!)

0:25:58 > 0:26:01Eight and six, 86.

0:26:01 > 0:26:03Seven and nine, 79.

0:26:03 > 0:26:05Still, it's not all bad.

0:26:05 > 0:26:07Is there a hen do in this afternoon?

0:26:07 > 0:26:09ALL: Yeah!

0:26:09 > 0:26:12Josh has a few surprise treats for the girls.

0:26:12 > 0:26:15But first, there's a quick quiz for his wife-to-be.

0:26:15 > 0:26:17What is Josh's favourite film?

0:26:17 > 0:26:19Rocky IV.

0:26:19 > 0:26:20That is correct.

0:26:20 > 0:26:22CHEERING

0:26:22 > 0:26:25What position does he play in rugby? Forward or back?

0:26:25 > 0:26:26- Back.- That's correct.

0:26:28 > 0:26:31And who does the most housework at home?

0:26:31 > 0:26:32Me. ..All right, Josh.

0:26:32 > 0:26:36Painful to admit it but she gets a bottle of bubbly

0:26:36 > 0:26:38and that's not all Josh has lined up.

0:26:38 > 0:26:42Your minibus is waiting outside ready to take you for a night out

0:26:42 > 0:26:43on the tiles in Birmingham!

0:26:43 > 0:26:47SCREAMING AND SQUEALING

0:26:47 > 0:26:49Stacie's delighted.

0:26:53 > 0:26:56Back in Cardiff, the rugby's over and spirits are high.

0:26:56 > 0:26:58One, two, three.

0:26:58 > 0:27:00Go on, Josh!

0:27:04 > 0:27:07I seriously don't think he'll last the night.

0:27:07 > 0:27:10I've got his mum and dad slating me, saying, "Look after him",

0:27:10 > 0:27:13and I'm trying to, but it's hard work.

0:27:13 > 0:27:17Josh doesn't care. He's busy meeting the good people of Cardiff.

0:27:17 > 0:27:19Oi! He's taking me home tonight!

0:27:19 > 0:27:21Boss, have a good night, yeah.

0:27:22 > 0:27:26Princess Stacie's got her own way in the end

0:27:26 > 0:27:29and she's leading the charge to the Birmingham bars.

0:27:29 > 0:27:31# Stacie's getting married!

0:27:31 > 0:27:33# La la la la La la la la! #

0:27:37 > 0:27:39DANCE MUSIC PLAYS

0:27:50 > 0:27:53She's soon feeling the pace though.

0:27:53 > 0:27:56Time for bed I think, Stacie. Sweet dreams, princess.

0:28:00 > 0:28:03So, what's the verdict on a Cardiff night out, lads?

0:28:03 > 0:28:04BOTH: Fabulous!

0:28:04 > 0:28:05Kiss me!

0:28:12 > 0:28:15I think I'm dead. Proper dead.

0:28:15 > 0:28:17There ain't no plan for today.

0:28:17 > 0:28:19All plans have been cancelled. All flights delayed.

0:28:19 > 0:28:22I suppose I'd better get up, hadn't I?

0:28:22 > 0:28:24Probably.

0:28:24 > 0:28:26It's nine days to go until the wedding

0:28:26 > 0:28:30and with the half the budget spent, it's time for our forklift driver

0:28:30 > 0:28:33to fork out on the bridesmaid dresses.

0:28:33 > 0:28:37But in his hour of need, where's best man Darren?

0:28:37 > 0:28:40He wasn't around this morning and now he's got work.

0:28:40 > 0:28:42So, yeah.

0:28:42 > 0:28:43I've had to call in my two brothers.

0:28:43 > 0:28:4818-year-old Joe and 15-year-old Ethan will be drawing

0:28:48 > 0:28:52on their years of expertise to dig their brother out of this hole.

0:28:52 > 0:28:55Josh wants green dresses to fit in with his Irish and Jamaican theme

0:28:55 > 0:28:58and he's budgeting at under £30 each,

0:28:58 > 0:29:02thanks to demanding Stacie and her eight bridesmaids.

0:29:08 > 0:29:11I'm just nervous about the price.

0:29:11 > 0:29:15Nervous that not all the girls will like it.

0:29:15 > 0:29:17I hate shopping. I hate shopping!

0:29:17 > 0:29:19Oh, my God.

0:29:19 > 0:29:21All right? How's it going?

0:29:21 > 0:29:23Hey.

0:29:23 > 0:29:26Right, I've got good news and I've got bad news.

0:29:26 > 0:29:29The good news is, I might be able to get you some dresses.

0:29:29 > 0:29:32The bad news is, if they're under 30 quid.

0:29:32 > 0:29:34Oh, my God!

0:29:34 > 0:29:39- Let's go looking for dresses. - We'd better start looking, then.

0:29:39 > 0:29:41- And it's got to be green?- Yeah. - Let's go, then.

0:29:41 > 0:29:44One's going to like it and the rest are going to hate it

0:29:44 > 0:29:47and it's going go like that through the whole day.

0:29:47 > 0:29:50Shopping with eight girls to find a green dress that suits them all

0:29:50 > 0:29:52and for less than £30? No problem.

0:29:52 > 0:29:55Can you imagine walking down the aisle in that?

0:29:55 > 0:29:57Stacie will freak out, no.

0:29:57 > 0:30:00I like this dress but it doesn't feel very bridesmaidy.

0:30:00 > 0:30:04- They're not formal enough. - That one looks horrible. - You lot are being too picky.

0:30:04 > 0:30:09- It's not quite long enough, I don't think. - It's out of our price range.

0:30:09 > 0:30:12What's wrong with that? It's a dress, it's green, it's white.

0:30:12 > 0:30:15We're so confusing and awkward.

0:30:15 > 0:30:18Go on, then, say something's wrong with that as well.

0:30:18 > 0:30:21I don't think any of us are going to agree on what dress we all want.

0:30:21 > 0:30:26Why are there so many of you? There are about nine women saying nine different things.

0:30:26 > 0:30:29Eight women saying eight different things even.

0:30:29 > 0:30:33Look, what's wrong with this one over here? Honestly!

0:30:33 > 0:30:37- It's like something you'd wear down the beach.- He's scaring me.

0:30:37 > 0:30:42- It's getting tiring.- The first time I've ever come dress shopping and I'm never coming again.

0:30:42 > 0:30:44With the shops about to close,

0:30:44 > 0:30:47there's still no sign of that perfect dress.

0:30:47 > 0:30:48Where is he?

0:30:48 > 0:30:50But against the odds,

0:30:50 > 0:30:53our bridesmaids have found a dress that they all actually like.

0:30:53 > 0:30:54Job done!

0:30:54 > 0:30:58Josh, you've got to remember, when we have our hair done

0:30:58 > 0:31:01and make-up and jewellery, it's going to look so different.

0:31:01 > 0:31:03- Just say yes, Josh. - I don't think they're that nice.

0:31:03 > 0:31:07They're fine. The word you're looking for is "yes".

0:31:07 > 0:31:09No, no, no, no. No.

0:31:09 > 0:31:11Oh, there's just no helping some people.

0:31:11 > 0:31:16You don't like these and you don't like the one Louise has got on. We have no more dresses in green.

0:31:16 > 0:31:19BLEEP sake! Right, let's go home now because I'm getting pissed off.

0:31:19 > 0:31:23What I've learnt from today is don't ever, ever, ever

0:31:23 > 0:31:26try to shop with eight women for bridal stuff.

0:31:26 > 0:31:28It's an absolutely nightmare.

0:31:28 > 0:31:31The real nightmare is he still has no dresses

0:31:31 > 0:31:33for the eight bridesmaids.

0:31:33 > 0:31:36And he's ended up at his local rugby club for the reception,

0:31:36 > 0:31:40with a questionable theme and the wrong bridal dress.

0:31:44 > 0:31:47Our Gloucester groom hasn't had the easiest of rides

0:31:47 > 0:31:51but to be fair, every decision has been with his bride in mind.

0:31:51 > 0:31:55None more so than now that he's choosing the vows.

0:31:55 > 0:31:58Josh, do you take Stacie to be your wife, to love and cherish her,

0:31:58 > 0:32:00to have and honour her?

0:32:00 > 0:32:03Will you promise to share your life with each other, to trust

0:32:03 > 0:32:07and to be honest and faithful to each other, whatever the future may bring?

0:32:07 > 0:32:08I like that one.

0:32:08 > 0:32:12They do hit home, some of the vows, they're quite sentimental.

0:32:12 > 0:32:15Some of them are like real... They get you, they hit home and stuff.

0:32:15 > 0:32:19You're spending the rest of your life with the woman that you love.

0:32:19 > 0:32:20It makes you realise.

0:32:20 > 0:32:25Especially when you haven't seen your fiancee for a week and a half. Get all soppy.

0:32:27 > 0:32:30With nine days to go, Josh has sent his younger brother, Ethan,

0:32:30 > 0:32:33over to deliver Stacie's invite, along with two flowers

0:32:33 > 0:32:37representing his Irish and her Jamaican roots.

0:32:37 > 0:32:40- Hello.- All right?- Thank you. - These are the flowers he wants me to give you.

0:32:40 > 0:32:44This is the bird of paradise, representing you,

0:32:44 > 0:32:46and the shamrock, representing Josh.

0:32:46 > 0:32:50- Is this the colours? - I ain't saying nothing.

0:32:50 > 0:32:54- Oh, see you later.- Bye!

0:32:54 > 0:32:56Mum!

0:32:56 > 0:33:00- Mum!- Do you think that's your flowers?

0:33:00 > 0:33:01I hope not.

0:33:03 > 0:33:05- Is that a flower?- Mm.

0:33:06 > 0:33:08Ooh!

0:33:08 > 0:33:12To Stacie Marie, these flowers were just a little hint of our big day.

0:33:12 > 0:33:15Miss you lots. See you soon.

0:33:16 > 0:33:18Oh!

0:33:18 > 0:33:20Joshua Aherne would like to invite you to the wedding

0:33:20 > 0:33:23of Stacie Marie and Joshua Aherne.

0:33:23 > 0:33:25Is the bird of paradise a hint?

0:33:25 > 0:33:27Oh, bird of paradise.

0:33:28 > 0:33:31- Oh, my God, are we getting married abroad?- Not quite.

0:33:31 > 0:33:36If anything, Josh's venue is a little too close to home.

0:33:36 > 0:33:39That dowdy rugby club hall needs a lot of work.

0:33:39 > 0:33:41The skittle alley is no Irish pub

0:33:41 > 0:33:46and that back yard is certainly no beach Caribbean paradise.

0:33:47 > 0:33:51Stacie's Jamaican grandma can't make it to the wedding.

0:33:51 > 0:33:55Baker man, bake me a cake. Bake me a cake as fast as you can!

0:33:55 > 0:33:59- But she has invited Josh round to pick up a little surprise. - Hello, Mrs P.

0:33:59 > 0:34:04- Hello, are you OK?- Yes, I'm good, good.- That's nice, isn't it?

0:34:04 > 0:34:06- You like it?- Yeah. Thanks.

0:34:06 > 0:34:09- Thanks again, Mrs P.- You're welcome. Take care of my girl.

0:34:09 > 0:34:11Thank you very much for the cake. Bye.

0:34:11 > 0:34:13He's got the centrepiece for the beach party.

0:34:13 > 0:34:17All the rugby club needs now is a remarkable transformation.

0:34:18 > 0:34:24And nothing says remarkable transformation like a trip to the local party shop.

0:34:24 > 0:34:28I'm getting married next Saturday and I'm looking for some Irish and Jamaican stuff.

0:34:28 > 0:34:31I've got an Irish and Jamaican theme of my wedding.

0:34:31 > 0:34:34- You've come to the right place. - Decoration?

0:34:34 > 0:34:36Some flags or decorations sort of thing.

0:34:36 > 0:34:40We do Irish bunting and Irish flags.

0:34:40 > 0:34:43I'm going to get sand and palm trees and stuff.

0:34:43 > 0:34:45We've got palm trees. At the front here as well.

0:34:45 > 0:34:50We've got wigs, Jamaican wigs to get in the mood of the theme.

0:34:50 > 0:34:51No way. Put that on, Dan.

0:34:51 > 0:34:54- It'll wreck my hair. - Stick it on, go on, have a try.

0:34:54 > 0:34:58And so the boys deal with their ongoing wedding disaster,

0:34:58 > 0:35:00like you do, by sticking silly hats on.

0:35:00 > 0:35:02I've got ginger pubes in my mouth.

0:35:02 > 0:35:04I beg your pardon!

0:35:04 > 0:35:06Ready?

0:35:06 > 0:35:09- I can't keep my trousers up! - Oh, no!

0:35:09 > 0:35:11How are you supposed to keep these trousers up?

0:35:11 > 0:35:16- I've never seen a Jamaican look like this.- I've never seen an Irish bloke look like this.

0:35:16 > 0:35:19My missus will divorce me before I've had my first dance.

0:35:19 > 0:35:22And this stuff's hurting my chin now. Right, I'm done.

0:35:22 > 0:35:25Come on, lads, there's work to be done.

0:35:25 > 0:35:27I'll do you the lot for 30 quid.

0:35:27 > 0:35:3025, come on. I'm getting married. 25, come on.

0:35:30 > 0:35:31All right, 25.

0:35:31 > 0:35:35- Sweet. Well done, girl.- You shook her hand.- That's it, deal.

0:35:35 > 0:35:40We've got some decorations, a few Irish flags, like Irish bunting,

0:35:40 > 0:35:44inflatable tree, some backdrops, a mixture of Irish and Jamaican.

0:35:44 > 0:35:47- We've done quite a good deal. - Some balloons.

0:35:49 > 0:35:53It may be a good deal but that one little bag of decorations

0:35:53 > 0:35:56has to transform an entire rugby club into Stacie's dream wedding venue.

0:35:56 > 0:35:58We've got to make it a Jamaican theme.

0:35:58 > 0:36:03The Jamaican theme in this is what you've bought, is it?

0:36:03 > 0:36:05How about something like that?

0:36:05 > 0:36:09The back yard is looking more like a prison than a beach paradise.

0:36:09 > 0:36:11This looks crap.

0:36:11 > 0:36:15Still, an inflatable palm tree should sort that right out.

0:36:15 > 0:36:16What's that?!

0:36:16 > 0:36:22- I feel like I'm there already. - You've never been to Jamaica, that's why.

0:36:22 > 0:36:25- This is pathetic.- With just four days to go until the wedding,

0:36:25 > 0:36:29Josh has now spent eight and a half grand of his 12 grand budget.

0:36:29 > 0:36:35But could this Caribbean and Irish themed reception be a culture clash too far?

0:36:43 > 0:36:48And there's another potential disaster that needs dealing with, and it comes in green.

0:36:48 > 0:36:50The dresses are the same colour as my cravat.

0:36:50 > 0:36:53It's the same colour scheme. It's going to be nice.

0:36:53 > 0:36:55Josh has found some bridesmaids' dresses

0:36:55 > 0:36:58but they were over twice the £30 budget.

0:36:58 > 0:37:01I've gone past caring now. They're wearing this dress.

0:37:01 > 0:37:05He's asked Stacie's half-sister Zoe and the other seven bridesmaids

0:37:05 > 0:37:08to pay the difference, but they haven't even seen them yet.

0:37:08 > 0:37:11- Can I have a look? - Exactly those dresses!

0:37:12 > 0:37:14- Why does he want it there? - What do you think?

0:37:14 > 0:37:16I'll leave them to it!

0:37:16 > 0:37:19We've established how we're doing our hair.

0:37:19 > 0:37:22Oh! My stomach is killing me.

0:37:22 > 0:37:24This is what happens when all these women meet

0:37:24 > 0:37:26and I start getting stomach pains.

0:37:26 > 0:37:29Right, let's go, then.

0:37:29 > 0:37:31Ooh, I'm nervous for him.

0:37:34 > 0:37:37That's yours, that's your one. That's yours, Charlotte.

0:37:37 > 0:37:40- Eight, eight, eight.- Cheers, mate.

0:37:40 > 0:37:41Oh, my gosh!

0:37:43 > 0:37:46Try it on and it might look better.

0:37:46 > 0:37:47Oh, my stomach is killing me.

0:37:47 > 0:37:49Can you see my armpits?

0:37:49 > 0:37:52I can see your hairy armpits!

0:37:52 > 0:37:55So far, so good, but surely they're not all going to fit

0:37:55 > 0:37:56straight off the peg.

0:37:56 > 0:37:58They'll fit. They have to fit.

0:37:58 > 0:38:02Why does mine seem shorter than everyone else's?

0:38:02 > 0:38:06- Why is mine longer?- Look at mine, you can see my feet.

0:38:06 > 0:38:08Yeah or no?

0:38:08 > 0:38:09- ALL:- Yes!

0:38:12 > 0:38:13Thank you very much.

0:38:13 > 0:38:15INDISTINCT SPEECH

0:38:15 > 0:38:18I think our groom has missed his calling on the high street

0:38:18 > 0:38:21as a personal shopper.

0:38:21 > 0:38:24And that's clothing done, unless the registrar wants me

0:38:24 > 0:38:27to dress her as well, just for the craic, like.

0:38:27 > 0:38:30Two days to go before the wedding.

0:38:30 > 0:38:35Josh has got all the invites out but he's keeping the locations a secret.

0:38:35 > 0:38:39He's arranging for buses to take the day guests to the castle ceremony and back.

0:38:41 > 0:38:44- 750, the two.- 750. - Yeah.- OK, that's a deal.

0:38:44 > 0:38:46Shake my hand before you change your mind. It's a deal.

0:38:46 > 0:38:51The evening guests will get a last-minute text telling them the reception's at the rugby club.

0:38:51 > 0:38:56I've given over a list of people I want at the evening do

0:38:56 > 0:38:58but he hasn't rung anyone off of it.

0:38:58 > 0:39:00Josh wants to keep it all a surprise

0:39:00 > 0:39:03but Stacie's getting worried.

0:39:03 > 0:39:05I want you to go round the house and just say to him,

0:39:05 > 0:39:09I want the list of the people who were supposed to be invited

0:39:09 > 0:39:12so that we can sort it out because I'm getting really annoyed now.

0:39:12 > 0:39:15- Right, let's go. - Give it to him, Zoe.- I will.

0:39:19 > 0:39:23Half-sister Zoe won't be pulling any punches.

0:39:23 > 0:39:25SHE KNOCKS ON DOOR

0:39:25 > 0:39:30- Hiya, all right? There will be no wedding if no guests are there. - Course there will.

0:39:30 > 0:39:32- That's the main priority. - No, it's not.

0:39:32 > 0:39:35How do people to know to get an outfit, Josh?

0:39:35 > 0:39:39- I'll just throw on a black bag! - I'm not telling nobody, Zoe.

0:39:39 > 0:39:44- Now I have to go back and tell Stacie this.- Yeah, tell Stacie this. I'm not doing it.

0:39:44 > 0:39:46There's no way I'm letting it go out.

0:39:46 > 0:39:50- Right, I'll see you later. Bye, take care. - I don't care what anyone says,

0:39:50 > 0:39:54I'm not telling anyone till probably after the ceremony.

0:39:54 > 0:39:57I don't care if it's 5, 6 o'clock, whatever.

0:39:57 > 0:40:00I honestly don't care, because all it does...

0:40:00 > 0:40:04All it takes is for me to text someone saying it's at where it's at,

0:40:04 > 0:40:06I'll go in, have the ceremony, we come out of the ceremony,

0:40:06 > 0:40:09Stacie has a look on her phone, bang, she's going to Matsons.

0:40:09 > 0:40:10Like that, that's it ruined.

0:40:10 > 0:40:15With the day guests relying on buses and the evening lot

0:40:15 > 0:40:17finding out the location by a last-minute text,

0:40:17 > 0:40:20this is starting to sound like Don't Tell The Guests.

0:40:20 > 0:40:23Still, his heart's in the right place.

0:40:23 > 0:40:27I feel a bit unappreciated at the minute, mate.

0:40:27 > 0:40:29A bit unloved.

0:40:31 > 0:40:35He'll be more than unloved if he can't transform his rugby club

0:40:35 > 0:40:37into a reception venue fit for his princess.

0:40:38 > 0:40:39Let's try and move it.

0:40:39 > 0:40:43But at least the rugby lads are making themselves useful for once.

0:40:46 > 0:40:50Well, they're moving stuff around, anyway.

0:40:52 > 0:40:55Trying to make it into an Irish bar, so, like, a few flags around,

0:40:55 > 0:40:57bit of memorabilia maybe.

0:41:00 > 0:41:02Tidy.

0:41:02 > 0:41:05The boys are getting into this decorating lark.

0:41:05 > 0:41:07We can lift the heavy stuff and we can do the delicate stuff.

0:41:09 > 0:41:12It would be nice if he didn't show his ass when he bends over,

0:41:12 > 0:41:13but the bow looks good.

0:41:13 > 0:41:14There you go.

0:41:16 > 0:41:19As you can see, whatever a woman can do,

0:41:19 > 0:41:21us rugby men can do just as good.

0:41:21 > 0:41:23Lovely, boys, very pretty bows.

0:41:29 > 0:41:31It's the day before the wedding.

0:41:32 > 0:41:34I'm so scared.

0:41:34 > 0:41:36Our buxom bride is about to get

0:41:36 > 0:41:39an eyeful of her less than supportive dress.

0:41:39 > 0:41:44I'm hyperventilating like I'm going into labour. Hello.

0:41:44 > 0:41:47- Hello, you must be Stacie. - Yeah. Hello.- Nice to meet you.

0:41:47 > 0:41:51Will Josh's sweetheart be satisfied with that sweetheart neckline?

0:41:51 > 0:41:56- OK, here we have your dress. Do you want to see it?- Yeah.

0:42:05 > 0:42:07Oh, my God.

0:42:07 > 0:42:10I didn't want sweetheart. Can I touch it?

0:42:10 > 0:42:12Yeah.

0:42:12 > 0:42:15This is original.

0:42:15 > 0:42:17I don't know.

0:42:17 > 0:42:20I just want to see it on now.

0:42:20 > 0:42:24I've got a pain in my tummy. I'm so, like, nervous for her.

0:42:24 > 0:42:27It's not like she's just trying on, is it? This is the one.

0:42:27 > 0:42:30This is THE dress. What if she doesn't like it?

0:42:30 > 0:42:33That's the biggest worry, that she didn't like it.

0:42:33 > 0:42:37And possibly still doesn't like it even though it's on.

0:42:39 > 0:42:41Oh, my God.

0:42:47 > 0:42:51- How do you feel?- I don't know. I'm still not sure about this bit.

0:42:52 > 0:42:53I want my mum.

0:43:00 > 0:43:01THEY GASP

0:43:03 > 0:43:08- Oh, my God!- Do you like it?- Yeah. How do you feel?- Comfortable.

0:43:08 > 0:43:11I feel comfortable. I don't feel like I'm spilling or anything.

0:43:11 > 0:43:14- That is gorgeous. - Is my back fat bad?- No.- No.

0:43:14 > 0:43:18- Not at all.- I'm just worried that I look fat in it.

0:43:18 > 0:43:21Oh!

0:43:21 > 0:43:23- Oh!- That is...

0:43:24 > 0:43:26That's amazing.

0:43:26 > 0:43:28How thoughtful is that!

0:43:28 > 0:43:31- Do you like the tiara?- Yeah.

0:43:33 > 0:43:34That is so pretty.

0:43:34 > 0:43:36Don't cry!

0:43:36 > 0:43:38You'll make me cry.

0:43:41 > 0:43:44Stacie, you look beautiful.

0:43:44 > 0:43:47I didn't like it at first.

0:43:47 > 0:43:51But now that it's on and I've got my veil and tiara, I like it now.

0:43:58 > 0:44:00It's the big day. The sun is shining, almost,

0:44:00 > 0:44:06and finally, a little bit of the Caribbean has arrived in Gloucester.

0:44:06 > 0:44:07Proper palm trees.

0:44:07 > 0:44:13Josh has spent the last of his budget on those wedding essentials.

0:44:13 > 0:44:16Palm trees, coconuts, crab nets and lobster pots.

0:44:16 > 0:44:18Come on, Josh, get down there.

0:44:18 > 0:44:19And half a ton of sand.

0:44:23 > 0:44:26- That's better, isn't it? - Yeah. That could work.

0:44:26 > 0:44:28It's got a white beach as well. Like in the Caribbean.

0:44:28 > 0:44:31Back at Stacie's house,

0:44:31 > 0:44:33the bride who likes to be in control

0:44:33 > 0:44:38has absolutely no idea what her groom has arranged.

0:44:38 > 0:44:41How are we all getting to where I'm getting married?

0:44:41 > 0:44:46What time are they coming? They could turn up in, like, ten minutes.

0:44:46 > 0:44:49Now I'm stressing, and I don't want to stress.

0:44:49 > 0:44:53Oh, I don't know!

0:44:53 > 0:44:56After a morning's hard labour,

0:44:56 > 0:45:00Josh and Darren make do with a quick change in the club's locker room.

0:45:00 > 0:45:02Stressed. Unbelievably stressed.

0:45:02 > 0:45:04Oooh!

0:45:05 > 0:45:08We're going to get there just before everyone else at this rate.

0:45:08 > 0:45:14Not that anyone knows where they're going, thanks to Josh's vague invites.

0:45:14 > 0:45:18Buses are picking up all the guests from the rugby club car park.

0:45:18 > 0:45:23But no-one suspects that they'll be bringing them back in a few hours.

0:45:23 > 0:45:27Back at Stacie's house, our bride is oblivious to...

0:45:27 > 0:45:30well, everything, really.

0:45:30 > 0:45:35So, how will she react to her first surprise of the day?

0:45:36 > 0:45:39SHE SQUEALS

0:45:39 > 0:45:42Look at you! I love them!

0:45:42 > 0:45:47- I love them!- Do you love it, babe? - Yeah. Oh, my God! You look gorgeous.

0:45:47 > 0:45:51Don't cry cos I'm going to start crying.

0:45:51 > 0:45:54I was so frightened!

0:45:55 > 0:46:00You look so gorgeous, all of you. I really like those dresses.

0:46:00 > 0:46:02They may have nearly caused Josh a hernia,

0:46:02 > 0:46:05but I think she likes the bridesmaids' dresses.

0:46:05 > 0:46:09And extra points for remembering Stacie's little niece.

0:46:09 > 0:46:12You look so pretty!

0:46:12 > 0:46:16ALL TALK AT ONCE

0:46:19 > 0:46:24According to Josh's master plan, they've got ten minutes until the guests arrive at the castle.

0:46:24 > 0:46:28I'll take the two pots, you take the trees, they ain't heavy. That's brilliant. Thanks.

0:46:28 > 0:46:30Just time for some finishing touches.

0:46:30 > 0:46:33Leave it. As long as it don't fall over, it'll be fine.

0:46:33 > 0:46:35He might not realise it,

0:46:35 > 0:46:39but at the bride's house, Josh is now scoring point after point.

0:46:39 > 0:46:42THEY EXCLAIM

0:46:44 > 0:46:47- Oh, my gosh, you look so beautiful.- Gorgeous.

0:46:49 > 0:46:52THEY SCREAM

0:46:52 > 0:46:54Oh, my God!

0:46:54 > 0:46:58Has Stacie noticed Josh's not-so-subtle hint at the theme to come?

0:46:58 > 0:47:01It's like a big double decker bus!

0:47:01 > 0:47:04No. No, she hasn't.

0:47:04 > 0:47:07Buses for the bridesmaids, but for the bride,

0:47:07 > 0:47:11- a vintage Triumph.- Oh, my God! - Complete with vintage driver.

0:47:11 > 0:47:14- Hi!- I'll be your driver for today. - Thank you.

0:47:23 > 0:47:26Oh, my God, can you see that?

0:47:29 > 0:47:30Oh, my God!

0:47:30 > 0:47:32Don't cry, don't cry.

0:47:39 > 0:47:42- I don't want to cry. - Don't cry, don't cry.

0:47:44 > 0:47:49A nervous and somewhat bedraggled groom awaits his bride.

0:47:50 > 0:47:51Thank you.

0:47:54 > 0:47:59Stacie's mum Lesley couldn't be prouder to walk her precious princess down the aisle.

0:48:09 > 0:48:12You are here today to witness the joining in marriage

0:48:12 > 0:48:17of Joshua Patrick Aherne and Stacie Marie Evans.

0:48:17 > 0:48:22- I give you this ring.- As a symbol of my love and commitment to you.

0:48:22 > 0:48:25As a symbol of my love and commitment to you.

0:48:25 > 0:48:28- I promise to cherish you. - I promise to cherish you.

0:48:28 > 0:48:32- Comfort you and care for you. - Comfort you and care for you.

0:48:32 > 0:48:34- For the rest of my life. - For the rest of my life.

0:48:34 > 0:48:40- I will always love, cherish and respect you.- I will always love, cherish and respect you.

0:48:40 > 0:48:44It only remains for me to say it gives me great pleasure to tell you

0:48:44 > 0:48:47you are now husband and wife.

0:48:47 > 0:48:51CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:49:01 > 0:49:04When we were coming out all in the hills I was like, oh, my God.

0:49:04 > 0:49:08When we pulled in here, I knew it wasn't a church, but I didn't care.

0:49:08 > 0:49:10Because, like, we've just got married in a castle.

0:49:10 > 0:49:16It's just amazing, baby. So amazing. I'm so proud of you.

0:49:16 > 0:49:20The place is amazing, the dresses are amazing, Stacie looks amazing.

0:49:20 > 0:49:25I was really surprised. There's been so many rumours going round, it's been unbelievable.

0:49:25 > 0:49:28But this has been top notch, to be perfectly honest with you.

0:49:28 > 0:49:32It's stunning, absolutely stunning, and I think he's done so well.

0:49:32 > 0:49:34I'm really proud of him.

0:49:34 > 0:49:37He's done more than I could ever have done myself.

0:49:37 > 0:49:41I've always been like, oh, I could plan a wedding in two weeks.

0:49:41 > 0:49:45But this... Just look around, it's absolutely beautiful.

0:49:45 > 0:49:48And we've had canapes. How posh is that? Canapes and champagne.

0:49:48 > 0:49:49I was like, wow!

0:49:49 > 0:49:54Our eager-to-please groom nailed it with the castle ceremony.

0:49:56 > 0:49:58But time's up.

0:49:58 > 0:50:01This must have cost a fortune, so I don't know

0:50:01 > 0:50:07whether he's run out of money and we're going off somewhere a bit... I don't know.

0:50:07 > 0:50:11See what the after-party's like. See if Stacie's still smiling then!

0:50:15 > 0:50:17It's back on the buses for the guests.

0:50:19 > 0:50:22Is Stacie ready for what's coming next?

0:50:23 > 0:50:27- It's a shame we couldn't stay there longer. - I think the next bit's better.

0:50:27 > 0:50:32I'm intrigued to see what you're doing. Where are we going?

0:50:37 > 0:50:41This is exactly the route to Josh's rugby club.

0:50:44 > 0:50:47And it's right coming up here, Charles.

0:50:51 > 0:50:54Is it really here?

0:50:59 > 0:51:02Let me out, then!

0:51:04 > 0:51:06I can't get out.

0:51:06 > 0:51:08Get out, leg.

0:51:08 > 0:51:10Come on.

0:51:17 > 0:51:18Are you ready?

0:51:19 > 0:51:23Come on, then. I've got a couple of things to show you.

0:51:24 > 0:51:26- Hello, darling.- All right?

0:51:26 > 0:51:27Nice day!

0:51:27 > 0:51:30- So this is the Irish bar? - You like it?

0:51:30 > 0:51:34It'll be better once there's an Irish band in here and people are in here drinking.

0:51:34 > 0:51:38It's small, so they'll be, like, closed in together.

0:51:38 > 0:51:40So what can I get you?

0:51:40 > 0:51:43Yep! What every girl wants on her wedding day.

0:51:43 > 0:51:48A pint down the local, served by a creepy-looking best man Darren in fancy dress.

0:51:48 > 0:51:50You like it?

0:51:53 > 0:51:54No.

0:51:55 > 0:51:58- See you later.- Bye!- Enjoy.

0:51:58 > 0:52:02Put your dress in - it's wet. SHE SQUEALS

0:52:02 > 0:52:05It might be overcast and 16 degrees,

0:52:05 > 0:52:08but perhaps the Caribbean vibe out in the back yard will brighten the mood.

0:52:08 > 0:52:12Obviously, your grandma couldn't make it, but she made us a cake.

0:52:12 > 0:52:16- She made us that? - She made that herself.

0:52:16 > 0:52:19- You like?- That's amazing.

0:52:19 > 0:52:22And speaking of amazing, he's saved the best till last.

0:52:24 > 0:52:26- Oh, my gosh!- You like it?

0:52:26 > 0:52:31Josh has spent over a quarter of his budget on professional draping,

0:52:31 > 0:52:34lights and flowers in the Irish and Jamaican colours.

0:52:34 > 0:52:37And with the help of his rugby team-mates,

0:52:37 > 0:52:41he's transformed the rugby club hall into Stacie's dream venue.

0:52:41 > 0:52:43You like it?

0:52:43 > 0:52:45Oh, my God.

0:52:45 > 0:52:49How've you done all of this in here?

0:52:49 > 0:52:55- I told you.- Where did you get the trees from?

0:52:55 > 0:53:01I cannot believe you've turned Matson Rugby Club into this.

0:53:01 > 0:53:03I'm very impressed, baby.

0:53:03 > 0:53:09It looks like our groom's hard work, devotion and eagerness to please has finally paid off.

0:53:09 > 0:53:13Our princess has her fairytale wedding after all.

0:53:13 > 0:53:17And the guests, who've found themselves back where they started, are impressed too.

0:53:20 > 0:53:24Could you all take your seats, please, for the arrival of Mr and Mrs Aherne?

0:53:24 > 0:53:27CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:53:31 > 0:53:35I would like to say that Stacie blossomed into adulthood, but I'm not going to.

0:53:37 > 0:53:41It's more like she stamped, cried and demanded her way through to it.

0:53:41 > 0:53:46I love you with all my heart, Stace, and you deserve this special day.

0:53:46 > 0:53:48Thanks, Mum.

0:53:48 > 0:53:51Joshua, I'd like to thank you for making Stacie very happy.

0:53:51 > 0:53:54What you have achieved today is absolutely amazing,

0:53:54 > 0:53:57and I think you deserve a round of applause.

0:53:57 > 0:53:59APPLAUSE

0:53:59 > 0:54:03And thank God for taking her off my hands!

0:54:03 > 0:54:05That's it from me.

0:54:05 > 0:54:10I'd just like everyone to raise their glasses and wish Stacie and Josh all the happiness.

0:54:10 > 0:54:12ALL TOAST THE BRIDE AND GROOM

0:54:16 > 0:54:22Josh has done a great job recreating an authentic Irish pub.

0:54:22 > 0:54:30When we got here, we were just like, oh, my God, but it looks amazing. We're going to party! Whoo!

0:54:30 > 0:54:35BAND PLAYS "THE IRISH ROVER"

0:54:40 > 0:54:42And ice?

0:54:53 > 0:54:56And like any authentic Irish pub,

0:54:56 > 0:55:01it's just a short stroll to the sunny shores of a Caribbean beach party.

0:55:03 > 0:55:09Amazing. He's just thought of absolutely everything, he's got the Irish, Jamaican. Amazing.

0:55:09 > 0:55:12I think it's the wedding of Stacie's dreams.

0:55:12 > 0:55:15It's just everything thrown in together.

0:55:15 > 0:55:17It's just been really amazing.

0:55:17 > 0:55:20I'm so proud of Joshua, my brother-in-law.

0:55:20 > 0:55:27Brilliant. Been an absolutely brilliant day. Thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of it.

0:55:27 > 0:55:30Even the bumpy ride on the bus. Brilliant.

0:55:33 > 0:55:36It was just awful not being in control,

0:55:36 > 0:55:41but after today and after everything, it's been completely worth it.

0:55:41 > 0:55:47I admit that Josh can make decisions without me overlooking them.

0:55:47 > 0:55:51He probably planned this wedding better what I would have done.

0:55:51 > 0:55:56I think I was boasting that I could plan a wedding in two weeks.

0:55:56 > 0:55:59If you can do it in two, I will take my hat off to you.

0:55:59 > 0:56:03I just think that period of not seeing Josh and then seeing him...

0:56:03 > 0:56:07I could have collapsed walking down the aisle when I clocked him.

0:56:07 > 0:56:10I was just like, "Oh, my God, there he is!"

0:56:10 > 0:56:12You looked amazing.

0:56:13 > 0:56:16- We're married.- Babies now!

0:56:17 > 0:56:23Next time, can Cameron deliver the traditional wedding his bride is crying out for?

0:56:23 > 0:56:24Oh, God!

0:56:25 > 0:56:27It's not what I expected at all.

0:56:27 > 0:56:31With a bride desperate for a wedding better than her sister's.

0:56:31 > 0:56:35Knowing that my sister's having the perfect wedding, and that mine'll just be forgotten.

0:56:35 > 0:56:39I feel like just running away and living in the woods somewhere.

0:56:39 > 0:56:41Will Cameron manage to please anyone?

0:56:41 > 0:56:45I really did think that he wouldn't do that one little thing.

0:56:45 > 0:56:48I just don't want to do this any more. I just want to go home.
