0:00:02 > 0:00:03This programme contains some strong language.

0:00:03 > 0:00:07- Don't Tell The Bride celebrates weddings like no-one else. - 'Congratulations on your big day.'

0:00:07 > 0:00:08- From New York...- Aagh!

0:00:08 > 0:00:11- ..to Glasgow... - Oh, my God...

0:00:11 > 0:00:13- ..Las Vegas... - Yes!

0:00:13 > 0:00:15- SHE SOBS - Why would the man I love do this?

0:00:15 > 0:00:17..to Ibiza...

0:00:17 > 0:00:20HE SOBS I can't even plan a wedding for her.

0:00:20 > 0:00:21..and an unforgettable rollercoaster ride.

0:00:21 > 0:00:24Why the hell are we at Thorpe Park on my wedding day?!

0:00:24 > 0:00:28And now we're back, as 12 more unsuspecting brides prepare

0:00:28 > 0:00:31- for the journey of a lifetime. - What?

0:00:31 > 0:00:36The grooms get three weeks and £12,000...

0:00:36 > 0:00:39and the brides get no say in how it's spent.

0:00:39 > 0:00:42I would never even imagine Ben could get it this wrong.

0:00:42 > 0:00:44So, get ready to rock...

0:00:44 > 0:00:46I don't even want you in the wedding!

0:00:46 > 0:00:50..as the party reaches new heights and sinks to new lows...

0:00:50 > 0:00:52HE LAUGHS

0:00:52 > 0:00:55..with more fairy-tale endings than ever before.

0:00:55 > 0:00:58This is supposed to be the biggest day of my life and I'm not happy.

0:00:58 > 0:00:59Switch that off.

0:01:00 > 0:01:03Tonight, Blackpool boy Mike...

0:01:03 > 0:01:05My ear just went.

0:01:05 > 0:01:07..plans the wedding of his glamorous bride-to-be.

0:01:07 > 0:01:11My wedding has got to be, like, five star.

0:01:11 > 0:01:14While Katie dreams of a Hollywood wedding...

0:01:14 > 0:01:17I want to feel like I was on Titanic, first class.

0:01:17 > 0:01:21- ..Mike wants to stay closer to home. - Let's get married at Blackpool Tower.

0:01:21 > 0:01:24So, with the groom who just wants to have fun...

0:01:24 > 0:01:26I want a bouncy castle, slide...

0:01:26 > 0:01:28..and thinks organising a wedding is easy...

0:01:28 > 0:01:31I've got three weeks to do it, I'll absolutely smash it.

0:01:31 > 0:01:33What happens when reality hits...

0:01:33 > 0:01:35- Did you pick the rings up?- What?

0:01:35 > 0:01:39- ..and the pressure of wedding planning gets too much? - Can you just give us a minute?

0:01:39 > 0:01:43- Will this stressed-out groom... - If this isn't sorted, I'm not getting married.

0:01:43 > 0:01:47- ..give this starry-eyed girl... - I'm losing faith fast.

0:01:47 > 0:01:52- ..the wedding of her dreams? - Switch it off.- Oh, my God!- What?!

0:01:52 > 0:01:55Or will it end up a B-movie disaster?

0:01:55 > 0:01:58It's just not working, this, for me. I can't handle it.

0:01:58 > 0:02:00I actually can't handle it.

0:02:12 > 0:02:16Seaside sweethearts Mike and Katie met seven years ago

0:02:16 > 0:02:18under the bright lights of Blackpool,

0:02:18 > 0:02:22and they've been hooked ever since.

0:02:22 > 0:02:24We met when I was 16 and Mike was 20, weren't you?

0:02:24 > 0:02:27- Pervert.- Yeah. - SHE LAUGHS

0:02:27 > 0:02:29Got to get 'em while you're young and mould 'em.

0:02:29 > 0:02:31No, I'm only messing!

0:02:31 > 0:02:37They now live just ten minutes from the heart of Blackpool with their five-year-old son Jack.

0:02:37 > 0:02:42We want to get married because I'm the odd one out,

0:02:42 > 0:02:47I have the odd surname, so I really want to be part of the family unit more.

0:02:47 > 0:02:51Just having the same name means so much, it really does.

0:02:51 > 0:02:53Keen to make an honest woman of Katie,

0:02:53 > 0:02:57Mike popped the question in his own no-frills style.

0:02:57 > 0:03:02The proposal was a bit of a disaster. He came home,

0:03:02 > 0:03:05dumped himself on a sofa next to me, threw this ring at me and says,

0:03:05 > 0:03:07"Are you going to marry me then?"

0:03:07 > 0:03:09Why would you go out of your way

0:03:09 > 0:03:11and bungee-jump to you or something like that?

0:03:11 > 0:03:14Because you have to tell everyone, "Oh, how did he propose?"

0:03:14 > 0:03:17- On t'couch...just after an argument. - Yeah, on the couch.

0:03:17 > 0:03:20Katie works long hours as a nurse,

0:03:20 > 0:03:23while Mike's an odd-job man at a local garage,

0:03:23 > 0:03:26which leaves him plenty of time to look after their son Jack.

0:03:26 > 0:03:29Jack's mint, yeah, he's just everything.

0:03:29 > 0:03:32For me, he's the whole reason why I get up in the morning

0:03:32 > 0:03:34and go to work.

0:03:34 > 0:03:37Mike and Jack are just like brothers. They're like kids

0:03:37 > 0:03:40and I have to look after them and separate them when they play-fight.

0:03:40 > 0:03:42I'm like the referee, I suppose.

0:03:42 > 0:03:46He's a lovely lad, I love him. I love him to bits. That's that.

0:03:46 > 0:03:51And when the boys make a mess, it's usually down to Katie to tidy up.

0:03:51 > 0:03:52Mike is a bit old-fashioned.

0:03:52 > 0:03:57He believes that men should sit on their backsides and women hoover around them.

0:03:57 > 0:03:59I'm more into simple living, definitely.

0:03:59 > 0:04:03I would just say I'm like what a normal man should be like.

0:04:03 > 0:04:06Without me, the place would fall apart.

0:04:06 > 0:04:10And his outdated attitude isn't just limited to housework,

0:04:10 > 0:04:13as he fears all things technological.

0:04:13 > 0:04:16I don't like anything modern, to be fair.

0:04:16 > 0:04:18The human brain isn't evolved enough for us to work these things.

0:04:18 > 0:04:24Like, use the brain for what it's meant to be used for, walking about and stuff, not, like, texting.

0:04:24 > 0:04:27It's a pretend world that doesn't exist and I don't want to be involved in it.

0:04:27 > 0:04:31Nurse Katie might spend her life working,

0:04:31 > 0:04:36but she dreams of a glitzier life, and one glitzier life in particular.

0:04:36 > 0:04:41I'm quite glamorous and girly. I like Hollywood glamour.

0:04:41 > 0:04:42Marilyn Monroe is my idol.

0:04:42 > 0:04:44I just think she's gorgeous.

0:04:44 > 0:04:48Everyone just admired her. I want to be like her.

0:04:48 > 0:04:53So Katie dreams of being Marilyn, but while some like it hot,

0:04:53 > 0:04:58others like it more local, and Mike is one of those people.

0:04:58 > 0:05:00I do like Blackpool because you go out,

0:05:00 > 0:05:04and it's like, everything is there on a plate for you.

0:05:04 > 0:05:07Whatever you want, it's there. It's good. I like it.

0:05:07 > 0:05:08Yee-ha!

0:05:08 > 0:05:10SHE LAUGHS Can I wear the black one?

0:05:10 > 0:05:13- I bet you'll suit that one. - Top dog in it.

0:05:14 > 0:05:19And our wannabe Marilyn knows exactly what she wants in a wedding.

0:05:19 > 0:05:23My dream wedding would be very glamorous, like Hollywood glamour.

0:05:23 > 0:05:29Champagne flowing... Just to feel like a superstar the day, I suppose.

0:05:29 > 0:05:31It'd be very picturesque.

0:05:31 > 0:05:36Beautiful manor house with beautiful gardens and flowers everywhere.

0:05:37 > 0:05:40But as a groom with simple tastes,

0:05:40 > 0:05:43Mike doesn't see a problem with planning the perfect wedding.

0:05:43 > 0:05:46I don't think that weddings need that much attention or planning.

0:05:46 > 0:05:49People are getting married and then you have a drink at the end of it,

0:05:49 > 0:05:50it's just a day of a job -

0:05:50 > 0:05:55"That'll do. What's the price? That's no good". You know? That's how you pick things, innit?

0:05:55 > 0:05:59And for Mike, this wedding has one very simple brief.

0:05:59 > 0:06:01All I want is for everybody to have a good time.

0:06:01 > 0:06:03That's what a wedding is for me.

0:06:03 > 0:06:06That's the only thing I make sure of, that everyone's happy.

0:06:06 > 0:06:11But for a groom who's never had to fend for himself, is organising a wedding step too far?

0:06:11 > 0:06:13I'm worried about what he's doing for the wedding,

0:06:13 > 0:06:15but I'm going to be more worried about actually him,

0:06:15 > 0:06:17like, is he all right?

0:06:17 > 0:06:21I don't know what he's going to do without me, to be honest.

0:06:21 > 0:06:24Katie may be worried, but Mike's feeling confident.

0:06:24 > 0:06:28I've got three weeks to do it, I'll absolutely smash it.

0:06:28 > 0:06:32It's not a problem. Why would it be a problem? It's easily done.

0:06:32 > 0:06:34What would be hard about it?

0:06:34 > 0:06:40But will Mike's old-fashioned values give Katie the happy Hollywood ending she deserves?

0:06:40 > 0:06:45My biggest fear is that he might actually not get everything together in time.

0:06:45 > 0:06:47That's the worry.

0:06:47 > 0:06:49Yeah...

0:06:49 > 0:06:52It's a bit daunting when you say it like that, isn't it?

0:06:55 > 0:06:58It's time for Katie to pack her bags,

0:06:58 > 0:07:01leaving Mike in charge of their wedding.

0:07:01 > 0:07:06I'm going to miss you like mad. Will you do a good job?

0:07:06 > 0:07:08- This is very important. - I will do a good job.

0:07:08 > 0:07:11You don't need to worry about it. You don't need to talk about it.

0:07:11 > 0:07:13You're not going to dress me up like a fool?

0:07:13 > 0:07:15No. You'll be all right. What can go wrong?

0:07:15 > 0:07:17SHE CHUCKLES

0:07:17 > 0:07:23The next time they see each other will be on the most important day of their lives.

0:07:23 > 0:07:25Come here. Give us a hug.

0:07:27 > 0:07:30- You're going to be all right, yeah? - Yeah. Good luck.

0:07:30 > 0:07:34Oh, shit. I'm going to need it. See you later, darling.

0:07:34 > 0:07:36- See you later. - See you later, babe.- Bye.

0:07:41 > 0:07:42Phewf...

0:07:45 > 0:07:48Oh, my God... And the games begin.

0:07:50 > 0:07:53That, I was dreading, really, saying goodbye.

0:07:53 > 0:07:56For seven years, we've never really been away from each other.

0:08:01 > 0:08:05Katie's moving in with her mum, so the hard-working bride actually has

0:08:05 > 0:08:08someone to look after HER, for a change.

0:08:08 > 0:08:11- Are you going to look after me? - Yeah, go on, then!

0:08:11 > 0:08:13Come on in.

0:08:13 > 0:08:17And talk soon turns to how Mike will cope in the modern world

0:08:17 > 0:08:18without Katie.

0:08:18 > 0:08:22I don't know that he's been used to having to be really organised.

0:08:22 > 0:08:24And if he hasn't had to have it,

0:08:24 > 0:08:27then he hasn't had a lot of practice.

0:08:27 > 0:08:30I think he will have my voice in his head.

0:08:30 > 0:08:34The only voice Mike will be listening to will be his best man and childhood friend,

0:08:34 > 0:08:36Ross.

0:08:36 > 0:08:40- You're looking well. - I know, yeah, all right, Mike?

0:08:40 > 0:08:43Let's hope his advice will be more sensible than his wig.

0:08:43 > 0:08:45Shall we do circles or graphs?

0:08:45 > 0:08:49No, circles. So first of all, "Wedding". Over this side, "Rings".

0:08:49 > 0:08:52- Times two!- What does Katie want?

0:08:52 > 0:08:55What do you want? What do you want out of this wedding?

0:08:55 > 0:08:58Have a real good drink and everyone be able to eat properly

0:08:58 > 0:09:01and all that, not feel stuffy and wear what they want.

0:09:01 > 0:09:05I'm thinking, definitely something outside the box, a bit.

0:09:05 > 0:09:09And after half an hour of thinking outside the box,

0:09:09 > 0:09:13the boys have decided on a back-to-basics Blackpool wedding.

0:09:13 > 0:09:14Right, are you happy?

0:09:14 > 0:09:17Yeah, that's just a slight overview on what's going to happen.

0:09:17 > 0:09:20- Well, I'm bored of it, anyway, so are we going out or what? - If you want, yeah.

0:09:25 > 0:09:30So two hours after Katie left him in charge of her dream day,

0:09:30 > 0:09:35Mike's gone out with Ross and groomsman Reace for a night of good old-fashioned fun.

0:09:35 > 0:09:40Who would've thought this wedding planning would be so easy?

0:09:41 > 0:09:43Nice move(!)

0:09:50 > 0:09:56It's day one of wedding planning and the boys are off to find a venue.

0:09:56 > 0:09:59Marilyn-loving Katie wants a wedding fit for an icon,

0:09:59 > 0:10:03and if it's an icon she wants, it's an icon she get.

0:10:03 > 0:10:06500-foot icon down the road from their house.

0:10:06 > 0:10:08Right, let's do it.

0:10:10 > 0:10:11Proper up for this one.

0:10:13 > 0:10:17And so the boys head on up to the top of the Blackpool Tower.

0:10:21 > 0:10:26We are currently ascending 380 feet to the top of Blackpool Tower.

0:10:26 > 0:10:29It will take us just around 69 seconds to get to the top.

0:10:29 > 0:10:32I'm all right, I'm all right so far. I'm all right, I'm all right.

0:10:34 > 0:10:36HE SQUEALS Oooh! Not any more, not any more!

0:10:36 > 0:10:40Unfortunately, Mike isn't just scared of the modern world...

0:10:40 > 0:10:43He's also scared of heights.

0:10:43 > 0:10:46- Please, hold me!- It's all right, darling, you'll be all right!

0:10:46 > 0:10:48When Katie said she dreamt of the high life,

0:10:48 > 0:10:51I wonder if she meant THIS high?

0:10:51 > 0:10:52Oooh...

0:10:52 > 0:10:54But what a view!

0:10:54 > 0:10:56Mike, you should get married here!

0:10:56 > 0:11:00I'm actually getting over the... just because of the view.

0:11:00 > 0:11:01That is amazing.

0:11:01 > 0:11:03I wouldn't be...

0:11:04 > 0:11:09HE YELPS I'm not going near that!

0:11:09 > 0:11:14And while the boys plan a ceremony at the most local, loftiest landmark in Blackpool,

0:11:14 > 0:11:20Katie's a few miles down the road with her sister Francesca, hoping he's done anything but.

0:11:20 > 0:11:23I hope he's not choosing Blackpool.

0:11:23 > 0:11:26I hope he's ventured out a bit.

0:11:26 > 0:11:33- If I don't smell freshly cut grass, I'll be a bit peed off.- Yeah!

0:11:33 > 0:11:36I want greenery, not,

0:11:36 > 0:11:39"Oh, I might as well go to Primark while I'm here".

0:11:39 > 0:11:43- Yeah, just across the road! - Yeah, I don't want that.

0:11:43 > 0:11:45- No.- No.

0:11:45 > 0:11:49So while the starry-eyed bride desperately hopes her wedding

0:11:49 > 0:11:53won't be in Blackpool, the groom's over in Blackpool

0:11:53 > 0:11:57in Blackpool Tower, admiring the view of Blackpool.

0:11:57 > 0:11:58I want that view on the pictures.

0:11:58 > 0:12:01Yeah. I like that idea. Fingers crossed it's a nice day

0:12:01 > 0:12:04cos that view is absolutely fantastic.

0:12:04 > 0:12:06- Unreal, isn't it?- Yeah, it is, yeah.

0:12:06 > 0:12:08As Mike grows accustomed to the height,

0:12:08 > 0:12:10he grows even fonder of the tower.

0:12:10 > 0:12:14Yeah, I'm from Blackpool. I've never really been up here properly.

0:12:14 > 0:12:16I've enjoyed coming up here.

0:12:16 > 0:12:22My dream prize would be if they said 500 quid, but my max is £1,500.

0:12:22 > 0:12:25I don't even mind paying up to two grand at the end of it,

0:12:25 > 0:12:28for the venue and all the other bits...

0:12:28 > 0:12:33- I only wanted to pay 500 quid, but I love it.- Yeah, it's an idea, yeah. - We'll see.

0:12:33 > 0:12:35- Let's get married on Blackpool Tower.- Right.

0:12:35 > 0:12:37- What, you two?- Yeah!

0:12:37 > 0:12:39THEY LAUGH It's mint, it's bang on.

0:12:39 > 0:12:41Let's do it.

0:12:43 > 0:12:48Local boy Mike has his sights set on a Blackpool Tower wedding

0:12:48 > 0:12:52without even knowing if it's available or how much it costs.

0:12:52 > 0:12:55Away from the donkey rides and rollercoasters,

0:12:55 > 0:12:59although sadly not the British weather, nurse Katie is in the lush countryside,

0:12:59 > 0:13:01visiting her dream wedding venue

0:13:01 > 0:13:05with her mum Fran and maid of honour Laura.

0:13:07 > 0:13:09- That's lovely. - That's gorgeous, isn't it?

0:13:09 > 0:13:11Is that a chapel or something you can get married in?

0:13:11 > 0:13:14For a bride who dreams of Hollywood,

0:13:14 > 0:13:17it's got the touch of sophisticated glamour

0:13:17 > 0:13:19that Katie wants for her big day.

0:13:19 > 0:13:22- SHE GASPS - Do you know what it reminds me of? Titanic!

0:13:22 > 0:13:24- It does, doesn't it?- Yeah!

0:13:27 > 0:13:33- I think I'd want to feel like I was on Titanic, first class.- Yes.

0:13:33 > 0:13:35- You know, that sort of style.- Yeah.

0:13:35 > 0:13:40Because you only do it once and you want it super nice, don't you?

0:13:40 > 0:13:44I am the type of girl that if I had a two-bedroomed house,

0:13:44 > 0:13:48I would have the chandelier that take up one of the rooms.

0:13:48 > 0:13:50I am quite ridiculous like that.

0:13:50 > 0:13:53If I'm like that day-to-day, where wording has got to be...

0:13:53 > 0:13:56- It's got to be outstanding, hasn't it?- Like five-star, brilliant.

0:13:56 > 0:13:58- Everyone will remember it.- Yes.

0:13:58 > 0:14:00I'd just love

0:14:00 > 0:14:05if it was people that you don't know walking past and stuff like that.

0:14:05 > 0:14:10But with Mike wanting 2,500 tonnes of iron underneath him,

0:14:10 > 0:14:15Katie's Titanic-style wedding may have hit a Tower-shaped iceberg.

0:14:15 > 0:14:17MUSIC: "I Do Like To Be Beside The Seaside"

0:14:17 > 0:14:19Three days in,

0:14:19 > 0:14:23and Mike's set his heart on booking the Blackpool Tower,

0:14:23 > 0:14:24but he's struggling to get through to them.

0:14:24 > 0:14:28And for a man who hates using mobiles, it's all a bit much.

0:14:28 > 0:14:30"For Blackpool Tower Ballroom, press 2."

0:14:34 > 0:14:37It's just an automated thing. I just want to speak to somebody.

0:14:37 > 0:14:39I can't... Somebody needs to do that.

0:14:39 > 0:14:41I can't handle listening to that any longer.

0:14:41 > 0:14:44Just... Just try and leave a message.

0:14:44 > 0:14:46I need to know what's going on with it.

0:14:46 > 0:14:48If we don't get this sorted, I'm not getting married.

0:14:48 > 0:14:51I can't wait for some jobsworth to get back to me - it can't happen.

0:14:51 > 0:14:54I need to look elsewhere while I wait for them to get back to me.

0:14:54 > 0:14:57At the moment, this is my only option -

0:14:57 > 0:14:59I've put absolutely everything into getting here...

0:14:59 > 0:15:01Let's go and look somewhere else.

0:15:01 > 0:15:03- I'll keep ringing.- You up for that or what?- Yeah, yeah.

0:15:03 > 0:15:06The boys need a back-up plan but, preferring to stay local,

0:15:06 > 0:15:09they head to Blackpool's other icon -

0:15:09 > 0:15:13130-year-old entertainment complex the Winter Gardens.

0:15:13 > 0:15:15How you doing, mate? You all right?

0:15:15 > 0:15:18- Welcome to the Winter Gardens. - Michael. This is Ross, my best man.

0:15:18 > 0:15:21I'd like to have my wedding here. I'm hoping you'll help me with that.

0:15:21 > 0:15:24- Let me show you round and see what we've got.- That'd be brilliant.

0:15:24 > 0:15:26With a theatre, arena and grand ballroom

0:15:26 > 0:15:30holding over 7,000 people, a wedding at the Winter Gardens

0:15:30 > 0:15:34would leave Katie mingling with the public on her big day.

0:15:34 > 0:15:37This time, with someone to at least show them around,

0:15:37 > 0:15:40the boys are viewing three private spaces.

0:15:40 > 0:15:44A Renaissance room and Spanish-style room for the reception.

0:15:44 > 0:15:47And a Medieval-themed room for the ceremony.

0:15:47 > 0:15:50Come through the Renaissance room, you have the reception area there.

0:15:50 > 0:15:53And it's this room you'll actually have the ceremony in.

0:15:53 > 0:15:55- Yeah.- The civil service will take place in here.

0:15:55 > 0:15:56Of course. Yeah.

0:15:56 > 0:15:57Then this is the third room.

0:15:57 > 0:15:58I don't like that one.

0:15:58 > 0:16:02- Yeah.- This is much better. - Look at this, Mike!

0:16:02 > 0:16:03It may not be Blackpool Tower,

0:16:03 > 0:16:09but Mike would be able to have both his ceremony and reception here.

0:16:09 > 0:16:12At £2,000 for the day, it'll eat into Mike's budget,

0:16:12 > 0:16:16but at least this time he knows the price AND he knows it's available.

0:16:16 > 0:16:21Sadly, he doesn't know if it's the right venue for him.

0:16:21 > 0:16:24Just wasn't quite cool enough for me -

0:16:24 > 0:16:26it wasn't quite grand enough. Do you agree with that?

0:16:26 > 0:16:28- Yeah, I do. Yeah.- I do, yeah.

0:16:28 > 0:16:30I mean, it's easy. It's an easy option.

0:16:30 > 0:16:32Just go in there, chuck the guy two grand.

0:16:32 > 0:16:35But, I mean, I REALLY want the tower, I really want it.

0:16:35 > 0:16:37Anyway, that isn't right. I won't do it there.

0:16:37 > 0:16:39The Winter Gardens was a great deal,

0:16:39 > 0:16:42but only if the whole do's there. I won't do it all there. It's boring.

0:16:42 > 0:16:44Desperate to do a deal with the Tower,

0:16:44 > 0:16:47Mike is forced to borrow Ross's phone and chase them up.

0:16:47 > 0:16:51All I want to do is I want to come in and get married in the morning,

0:16:51 > 0:16:52and then by 14:30, we'll be gone.

0:16:54 > 0:16:56Well, can you give me a price on that?

0:17:00 > 0:17:02Four... Four grand?!

0:17:03 > 0:17:04Wow.

0:17:04 > 0:17:07Could I have the night do there as well for four grand, or is it...?

0:17:07 > 0:17:10Just for the ceremony is four grand? Well, that is...

0:17:10 > 0:17:12That's well over my budget, really.

0:17:12 > 0:17:14Right, thank you very much.

0:17:15 > 0:17:17That's just...

0:17:17 > 0:17:20No way am I paying that. Do you know what you get for four grand?

0:17:20 > 0:17:22Two hours and you get to take pictures at t'top.

0:17:22 > 0:17:24That's the end of that. Let's go somewhere else.

0:17:26 > 0:17:30The Tower's too expensive for him, and the Winter Gardens isn't right.

0:17:30 > 0:17:33Looks like planning a wedding is tougher than Mike thought.

0:17:38 > 0:17:41Almost a week in and old-fashioned groom Mike

0:17:41 > 0:17:43is no closer to finding a venue.

0:17:43 > 0:17:45So he heads to Reace's garage,

0:17:45 > 0:17:48where he's forced to seek help from his worst enemy -

0:17:48 > 0:17:50a computer.

0:17:50 > 0:17:53Wow, this is quite nice. Here you are, let's go to the next page.

0:17:53 > 0:17:56- This has got some good stuff on it. - I know, it has, hasn't it?

0:17:56 > 0:17:59Never looked on anything. Proper old-fashioned people -

0:17:59 > 0:18:01"Hey, this bloody internet's half-decent, innit?

0:18:01 > 0:18:03"Find some stuff on it, can't ya?"

0:18:03 > 0:18:06- "They've got pictures with words and everything to boot."- Yeah.

0:18:06 > 0:18:09With the wonders of modern technology proving fruitful,

0:18:09 > 0:18:12Mike makes a list of possible venues to call.

0:18:12 > 0:18:16I've never rung a number with a different area code, you know, than mine.

0:18:16 > 0:18:20Just wondering if I can speak to anyone about booking a wedding?

0:18:20 > 0:18:23- Right.- But with setback...

0:18:23 > 0:18:25So you've never had a function or a party there?

0:18:25 > 0:18:27- That's fair enough. - ..after setback...

0:18:27 > 0:18:29Is there not somebody who owns the place

0:18:29 > 0:18:32and they're not a town hall, where they go...? Oh... Right.

0:18:32 > 0:18:36Forget it. They won't let you in a park - it's all the council.

0:18:36 > 0:18:39..the groom who though he could smash it is in pieces.

0:18:39 > 0:18:41We've tried them all.

0:18:43 > 0:18:45This stuff does my head in.

0:18:45 > 0:18:48I can't deal with this kind of stuff, I can't handle it.

0:18:48 > 0:18:50I don't know what went on in my brain,

0:18:50 > 0:18:53but to think that I actually thought I could do this...

0:18:53 > 0:18:56is a bit crazy, cos I don't think I can.

0:18:56 > 0:18:57He might be right.

0:18:57 > 0:19:01Mike's no closer to finding a venue, and the huge responsibility

0:19:01 > 0:19:04of planning a wedding is starting to dawn on him.

0:19:04 > 0:19:07I've never been in a position where people are relying on me.

0:19:07 > 0:19:10This, you've got to be good at doing it.

0:19:10 > 0:19:13And I don't know the first thing about it. I don't have a clue, like.

0:19:13 > 0:19:17I feel like I can't make a decision, you know what I mean? In my own head.

0:19:18 > 0:19:20On anything.

0:19:20 > 0:19:23When does a man ever decide anything about a wedding?

0:19:23 > 0:19:26Do they? Don't they just turn up?

0:19:26 > 0:19:27Do you know what I mean?

0:19:27 > 0:19:30But most men now, they're like modern men and that

0:19:30 > 0:19:34that are equipped with these sort of tools in life, where...

0:19:34 > 0:19:37You know what I mean? Where they... Where they just...

0:19:37 > 0:19:39Yes, they know about things like flowers and that.

0:19:39 > 0:19:43I don't know jack shit. I don't know nothing about anything.

0:19:43 > 0:19:46I'm used to just going home, mate, and just saying to my bird...

0:19:46 > 0:19:49You know what I mean? "Life's shit...

0:19:49 > 0:19:52"give us a hug." You know what I mean? And...

0:19:52 > 0:19:54Nothing replaces that - that's why you're marrying her.

0:19:54 > 0:19:56I can totally understand it. I mean...

0:19:56 > 0:19:58the amount of times I've seen you

0:19:58 > 0:20:00and I just want to give you a big hug myself.

0:20:00 > 0:20:04- Cos I can see it, and I'm like... I understand.- Switch that off.

0:20:07 > 0:20:08Down by the seafront,

0:20:08 > 0:20:12Katie and her bridesmaid, Laura, are worrying about Mike.

0:20:12 > 0:20:15I think he sees me as like his support.

0:20:15 > 0:20:17- Know what I mean?- You're his rock.

0:20:17 > 0:20:20- I know that sounds cheesy. - Yeah, that's me.- But you are.

0:20:20 > 0:20:23Yeah, if he's really like, "I can't make a decision, what shall I do?"

0:20:23 > 0:20:26He'll come and ask me and I'll be like, "Right, calm down."

0:20:26 > 0:20:28That's rule number one.

0:20:28 > 0:20:31Like, we get him calm and then we talk through it again.

0:20:31 > 0:20:32And then he's like...

0:20:32 > 0:20:36He can make sense of it then and go, "Right, yeah, I agree." Or...

0:20:36 > 0:20:37Do you know what I mean?

0:20:37 > 0:20:41And he hasn't got that, so it must be really difficult.

0:20:42 > 0:20:47I just don't want people that, like, I respect and people I love and that...

0:20:49 > 0:20:51..to think I've made a shambles of it.

0:20:51 > 0:20:55Forced to make a decision, Mike is left with one option -

0:20:55 > 0:21:00The Winter Gardens, a venue he'd previous rejected.

0:21:02 > 0:21:08I just need to...to just man up, get it done and enjoy my day.

0:21:08 > 0:21:10At the end of week one,

0:21:10 > 0:21:14Mike books the Winter Gardens for his ceremony AND reception.

0:21:14 > 0:21:18With food included, it's £4,600 from the budget.

0:21:18 > 0:21:21It's hugely popular, but it isn't what he wants

0:21:21 > 0:21:26and it isn't the Hollywood location Katie dreamt of.

0:21:28 > 0:21:31It's the beginning of week two.

0:21:31 > 0:21:33And, thankfully for a groom who hates decisions,

0:21:33 > 0:21:35the venue is sorted.

0:21:35 > 0:21:39Less thankfully, the wedding dress isn't.

0:21:39 > 0:21:43For no-frills Mike, it's about to get...well, frilly.

0:21:43 > 0:21:46- Nice to meet you.- Michael. - I'm Hannah. Hi.

0:21:46 > 0:21:47I'm Reace.

0:21:47 > 0:21:49- Can I look at a few dresses? Is that OK?- Of course.

0:21:49 > 0:21:51- Can we help ourselves? - Yeah! Well, not really.

0:21:51 > 0:21:54We're not going to be greasing them up and that.

0:21:54 > 0:21:56- What kind of thing have you got in mind?- Um...

0:21:56 > 0:21:58It's hard for me - I can't chat about wedding dresses.

0:21:58 > 0:22:02- I just want a look.- Do you want me to help you?- Yeah, um...

0:22:02 > 0:22:04Working long hours as a nurse,

0:22:04 > 0:22:08Katie wants to look like a Hollywood movie star on her big day,

0:22:08 > 0:22:10and swap her scrubs for a glamorous wedding dress.

0:22:10 > 0:22:13- Hello, ladies.- Hiya.- Hello.

0:22:13 > 0:22:16So she's brought her very own entourage

0:22:16 > 0:22:19of Mum and three bridesmaids out for a spot of daydreaming.

0:22:19 > 0:22:23I like all of them, to be honest. I like all the glitz and... Yeah.

0:22:23 > 0:22:28Yeah? So if you're liking sparkle, yes? Let me show you this one.

0:22:28 > 0:22:30- That's really big, isn't it?- Huge!

0:22:30 > 0:22:33- Very full. It's a very traditional-looking dress.- Yeah.

0:22:33 > 0:22:35Katie, we've spotted one.

0:22:35 > 0:22:37Ooh, that's nice. That is lovely, that.

0:22:37 > 0:22:40Looks like it'd stand up by itself.

0:22:40 > 0:22:43Right, Katie, we'll use this fitting room.

0:22:43 > 0:22:46- It's getting really real now.- Yeah.

0:22:46 > 0:22:48I think it'll be Blackpool Tower.

0:22:48 > 0:22:50- Do you?- Yeah.- Do you?- Yeah.

0:22:50 > 0:22:52Something iconic.

0:22:52 > 0:22:54That's Mike, definitely.

0:22:54 > 0:22:56THEY ALL LAUGH

0:22:56 > 0:22:58Well, he didn't get the Tower.

0:22:58 > 0:23:01But forced into the world of dress shopping,

0:23:01 > 0:23:03Mike IS getting in touch with his feminine side.

0:23:03 > 0:23:05- This one here...- Yeah?

0:23:05 > 0:23:06Let's have a look.

0:23:06 > 0:23:09- That's lovely, isn't it? - That's a nice dress.

0:23:09 > 0:23:11Hard to say what you like about a dress,

0:23:11 > 0:23:13as I don't have a clue, but...

0:23:13 > 0:23:16- I like the sparkles.- You're drawn to it.- I like the sparkly bits.- Yeah?

0:23:16 > 0:23:18- It has a subtle amount of detail. - I'm drawn to stuff.

0:23:18 > 0:23:22It's like I don't know why I like Stevie Wonder, but he's mint. It's just one of them.

0:23:22 > 0:23:25BRIDESMAIDS GASP Ah, wow!

0:23:25 > 0:23:27- Stunning.- Yeah. - It's really lovely.- Lovely.

0:23:27 > 0:23:31- Ah, it's gorgeous. - Katie, you look beautiful.

0:23:31 > 0:23:34It's a classic dress, fit for a Hollywood idol.

0:23:34 > 0:23:36I just want to touch it, don't you?

0:23:36 > 0:23:37- I feel like a real film star. - Do you?

0:23:37 > 0:23:39Yeah, I just need a red carpet.

0:23:39 > 0:23:40THEY ALL LAUGH

0:23:42 > 0:23:45I hope he gets something dead good now.

0:23:45 > 0:23:47- Cos now you get your hopes up, don't you?- Yeah.- Yeah.

0:23:47 > 0:23:49- Ready?- Yeah.- This is the first one.

0:23:51 > 0:23:53- It's got to be that one, hasn't it? - Yeah, that's it.

0:23:53 > 0:23:56- Do you know what...? - It's got to be that one, hasn't it?

0:23:56 > 0:23:58It's the first dress he's picked out,

0:23:58 > 0:24:00and with his bloke hat firmly on,

0:24:00 > 0:24:04Mike's gone for a huge, ruffly meringue with flower detailing.

0:24:04 > 0:24:09Nothing like the simple, sophisticated Hollywood dress Katie wants.

0:24:09 > 0:24:13Who would've thought no-frills Mike would go quite so frilly?

0:24:13 > 0:24:17Before I come in here, I was like, "I don't like these ruffles - they look like toilet roll."

0:24:17 > 0:24:19But I'm into them a little bit now.

0:24:19 > 0:24:21- I've changed my mind a little bit on it.- OK. Fair enough.

0:24:21 > 0:24:23It's lovely, yeah. That'd be perfect, yeah.

0:24:23 > 0:24:27While Mike's happy with a dress that reminds him of ruffly toilet roll,

0:24:27 > 0:24:32Katie's found another glamorous gown fit for a movie star.

0:24:32 > 0:24:34I just think it's really beautiful. I think it's...

0:24:34 > 0:24:37- It's very classy, isn't it? - It is.- Elegant, yeah.

0:24:37 > 0:24:38It's just classy.

0:24:38 > 0:24:41- I don't think I could decide. I think I'd have to have both.- Yes!

0:24:41 > 0:24:43- THEY ALL LAUGH - Yeah.

0:24:43 > 0:24:45It seems dressing like Marilyn

0:24:45 > 0:24:49has given Katie a taste of the Hollywood lifestyle.

0:24:49 > 0:24:53- If SHE can't decide, how's HE going to decide?- Oh, dear me!

0:24:53 > 0:24:57That's simple - he'll pick the first dress he lays eyes on.

0:24:57 > 0:24:58I picked them.

0:24:58 > 0:25:01But at £1,500, Mike's wrinkly, ruffly dress

0:25:01 > 0:25:05is WAY over the budget he'd set aside.

0:25:05 > 0:25:08It's a lot of money, isn't it? It's 1,500 quid, right, for the dress?

0:25:08 > 0:25:10Thing, thing, thing...

0:25:10 > 0:25:13Say, "I like it but I need to get her shoes. Can you sort us out?"

0:25:13 > 0:25:14I'm sure they will.

0:25:14 > 0:25:16Do you know what? Don't waste your time.

0:25:16 > 0:25:18- You're trying stuff on. Don't worry. - It doesn't matter.

0:25:18 > 0:25:22- It's a big decision.- You have to make the right choice.- I've made it.

0:25:22 > 0:25:25We need to talk about the price of that and whether I can afford it.

0:25:25 > 0:25:27If not, it's out of the window. Do you know what I mean?

0:25:27 > 0:25:31We can do the dress with the veil and tiara, then that's doable.

0:25:31 > 0:25:35Desperate to escape the girly world of shopping, Mike's made a decision.

0:25:36 > 0:25:38A £1,500 decision.

0:25:38 > 0:25:40Get it boxed off. I'm sick of talking about wedding dresses.

0:25:40 > 0:25:42Yeah, that's bang on.

0:25:42 > 0:25:45- Thank you very much. Cheers. - With over half his budget spent,

0:25:45 > 0:25:50Mike has neither the Hollywood venue OR the Hollywood dress Katie wants.

0:25:50 > 0:25:54To pay 1,500 quid for a piece of material, for me, is like craziness.

0:25:54 > 0:25:56I don't think you've got anything to worry about.

0:25:56 > 0:26:00- You think it's all right?- Yeah, it's better than all right, yeah.

0:26:00 > 0:26:02Yeah. Hopefully, we've got it right.

0:26:02 > 0:26:04Well, he'll have to wait and see.

0:26:06 > 0:26:07TRAM BELL RINGS

0:26:07 > 0:26:09Mike may not have the Tower,

0:26:09 > 0:26:12but he's still convinced that, in true Blackpool style,

0:26:12 > 0:26:15he can fill his wedding with good, old-fashioned fun.

0:26:15 > 0:26:18And nothing says "good, old-fashioned fun"

0:26:18 > 0:26:20like dressing as a cowboy.

0:26:20 > 0:26:22Time to ride in and clean up this town.

0:26:22 > 0:26:26But first he needs his rootin', tootin' sidekick...

0:26:26 > 0:26:28Got the caps in.

0:26:28 > 0:26:29GUN CLICKS

0:26:29 > 0:26:31I used them all before I got here. Yeah, I have.

0:26:31 > 0:26:33BANG! There we go, there's one.

0:26:33 > 0:26:35..assuming he doesn't shoot him first.

0:26:36 > 0:26:37Right, kid.

0:26:37 > 0:26:40Let's write down what I want from the whole night,

0:26:40 > 0:26:42so from when people first get there...

0:26:42 > 0:26:44And for cowboy Mike,

0:26:44 > 0:26:46nothing is too over-the-top for his big Blackpool wedding.

0:26:46 > 0:26:49What I want to do is, while I'm writing this down,

0:26:49 > 0:26:51I want to get a kind of magician going round the tables.

0:26:51 > 0:26:53And then what I want,

0:26:53 > 0:26:56I want a bouncy castle slide that goes onto the dance floor.

0:26:56 > 0:26:58That's easily done - I know a guy for that.

0:26:58 > 0:27:00And then everyone gets up, has a boogie...

0:27:01 > 0:27:03..and then just gets smashed up.

0:27:03 > 0:27:06Right, with all these different things going on,

0:27:06 > 0:27:08are we still sticking with a theme, or what's going to happen?

0:27:08 > 0:27:11Yeah, there is a theme - everyone will have a good time.

0:27:11 > 0:27:12That's the theme.

0:27:12 > 0:27:15It's like the entertainment side's a big thing for me.

0:27:15 > 0:27:16Because you want people to...

0:27:16 > 0:27:19Every step they take, something different goes on, you know?

0:27:19 > 0:27:24You don't need to spend crazy amounts to make something fun for people.

0:27:24 > 0:27:27You got to a field and throw a ball for your dog,

0:27:27 > 0:27:29and you're having a good time with your dog.

0:27:29 > 0:27:32- It doesn't cost you any money, does it?- No, it doesn't, no.

0:27:32 > 0:27:34With the wedding fast approaching,

0:27:34 > 0:27:36and with no idea what Mike's planning,

0:27:36 > 0:27:38Katie's mum is growing concerned.

0:27:38 > 0:27:42He's going to want to speak to you to get your advice on things.

0:27:42 > 0:27:46And I think if you could just say, "That's fine," he'd be OK.

0:27:46 > 0:27:50- But I should think he's in a bit of turmoil at the moment.- Yeah.

0:27:50 > 0:27:53Cos we... We discuss everything all the time.

0:27:53 > 0:27:55You know, "Oh, should I buy that or not?"

0:27:55 > 0:27:58And we always discuss all our decisions, really.

0:27:58 > 0:28:01- Cos he hates shopping as well! - He does.

0:28:01 > 0:28:03- He doesn't even go to the supermarket.- No.

0:28:03 > 0:28:05I think he'd, like, panic buy.

0:28:05 > 0:28:07THEY BOTH LAUGH

0:28:07 > 0:28:08- Panic buy?!- Yeah!

0:28:08 > 0:28:10You can't panic buy a wedding venue!

0:28:10 > 0:28:12He might.

0:28:12 > 0:28:14I think he'd be like, "Can you do it? "Right, here's the money."

0:28:14 > 0:28:17You know, and hopefully it'll mould together.

0:28:17 > 0:28:21- You may end up with a mash of stuff that doesn't go together.- Yeah.

0:28:21 > 0:28:22He's not a selfish person.

0:28:22 > 0:28:26I don't think he's going to get something that just appeals to him.

0:28:26 > 0:28:30Everything he gets will be because he thinks that you like it.

0:28:30 > 0:28:33So if you don't like it, you're going to have to fake it.

0:28:33 > 0:28:35- Fake it?- Fake it.

0:28:35 > 0:28:37I'm not a good actress, you know?

0:28:37 > 0:28:40You should be. "God, this is exactly what I wanted."

0:28:40 > 0:28:43- "I couldn't have done it better." - But just wink at me and I'll know!

0:28:45 > 0:28:50Our wannabe Marilyn might just need to give an Oscar-worthy performance to pull that off.

0:28:50 > 0:28:52The less than two weeks to go,

0:28:52 > 0:28:57Mike's still on a mission to fill his venue with old-fashioned fun.

0:28:57 > 0:28:59So he spends £200 on inflatables.

0:28:59 > 0:29:03Hiya, you all right? Do you do bouncy castles?

0:29:03 > 0:29:07I want the ones where you run and the bungee rope pulls you back.

0:29:07 > 0:29:08Have you got one of them?

0:29:08 > 0:29:11And still not quite trusting that internet thing,

0:29:11 > 0:29:14he searches for entertainment the old-fashioned way -

0:29:14 > 0:29:18- holding auditions with local cabaret acts.- Oh, shit!

0:29:18 > 0:29:21- 10 of hearts. Was that a free choice, Mike?- Total free choice.

0:29:21 > 0:29:24Would you just turn that over, have a look and show.

0:29:24 > 0:29:27You're booked, you're booked! Don't show me nowt else, you're booked.

0:29:27 > 0:29:32Finally Mike spends £830 on a fire-breathing juggler,

0:29:32 > 0:29:36a string quartet and a balloon-bending magician.

0:29:36 > 0:29:40- Don't do that, that just cheapens it.- Yeah, let's just not ruin it.

0:29:40 > 0:29:44And the Blackpool-themed razzmatazz doesn't stop there.

0:29:44 > 0:29:49Next, it's bridesmaids' outfits from a local ballgown dress shop.

0:29:51 > 0:29:54- Those, I have three of those. - Yeah.- In the blue.

0:29:54 > 0:29:56I do like the corset type with the bouff going on.

0:29:56 > 0:29:58That's the effect I'm after, yeah.

0:29:58 > 0:30:02Turns out bridesmaids' dresses are even easier to choose

0:30:02 > 0:30:03than wedding dresses.

0:30:03 > 0:30:06And at £100 each, it's a done deal.

0:30:06 > 0:30:09- I'm happy at that.- We'll take them. - Okey-dokey.- Sold.- Sold machine.

0:30:09 > 0:30:11Thank you.

0:30:11 > 0:30:14It's an impulse buy in under 10 minutes. Yee-ha!

0:30:14 > 0:30:18If the girls aren't happy with these, bollocks to them. They're talking rubbish.

0:30:18 > 0:30:22If they don't fit, that's different but if they do fit, tough titty. It's happening.

0:30:22 > 0:30:24So the boys have convinced themselves

0:30:24 > 0:30:27and with nearly eight grand of his budget spent,

0:30:27 > 0:30:30let's hope he can convince the bridesmaids, too.

0:30:30 > 0:30:32Walking about with dresses!

0:30:32 > 0:30:36With the second week of wedding planning drawing to a close,

0:30:36 > 0:30:39our macho no-nonsense groom is finally realising

0:30:39 > 0:30:42how much he needs the woman in his life.

0:30:42 > 0:30:46If I've got stresses in my life, I talk to her at night about them

0:30:46 > 0:30:47and she listens.

0:30:47 > 0:30:51She, like, helps me more than I help her looking back at things.

0:30:51 > 0:30:54I thought it was the other way round but my personality's one

0:30:54 > 0:30:57that has to have somebody in their life, obviously

0:30:57 > 0:31:00because with her not being here, it's broke me.

0:31:00 > 0:31:03Without realising it, I must run everything past her.

0:31:03 > 0:31:08I must just run everything past her cos that's... Like, little things.

0:31:08 > 0:31:11I thought making decisions is not going to be a problem.

0:31:11 > 0:31:13I thought it's not a problem.

0:31:13 > 0:31:1612 grand, bring it on, let's just... Yeah, whatever.

0:31:16 > 0:31:20But yeah, the decision-making has been hard because I feel like...

0:31:20 > 0:31:23Even now I'm worrying like mad,

0:31:23 > 0:31:28hoping that I've not made a big balls-up on the venue or the food...

0:31:28 > 0:31:34It's like... I've not slept properly at all through the whole thing.

0:31:34 > 0:31:38Worrying, worrying, worrying, worrying. So in that respect,

0:31:38 > 0:31:41I think it's probably a good thing cos at least I know I care.

0:31:41 > 0:31:46You know what I mean? At least I know that I care about it rather than not be bothered

0:31:46 > 0:31:49and slap Harry about it because I do.

0:31:49 > 0:31:52I look rough, I'm feeling rough at the end of this, definitely.

0:31:52 > 0:31:56I'm feeling like I need a good night's sleep and a good hug

0:31:56 > 0:32:00off my missus, just watch a DVD and forget about everything.

0:32:05 > 0:32:10Determined to see this through, Mike's invited round Katie's bridesmaids -

0:32:10 > 0:32:12Lindsay, Francesca and Laura.

0:32:14 > 0:32:17We're hoping that we're going to be taken away

0:32:17 > 0:32:22- to go and choose our dresses rather than him having bought them.- Yeah.

0:32:22 > 0:32:27I went into a shop and I bought your bridesmaids' dresses.

0:32:27 > 0:32:29Oh, no! They're on the back of that door? Oh, I don't want to look.

0:32:29 > 0:32:34- Shut your eyes.- Have a look. - Oh, God.

0:32:35 > 0:32:41- Doooooooo... Ooh, hang on. - Are they blue?- Are they sky blue?

0:32:41 > 0:32:45- Are they blue?- Well...- Oh, my God. - What? What?

0:32:45 > 0:32:48- Shit! GIRLS LAUGH - I'm sorry.

0:32:48 > 0:32:54- There's no sorries.- They'll look lovely on.- It looks like an American prom dress.- Yeah, it does.

0:32:54 > 0:32:59'They're trying the dresses on now and I can't wait to see it.'

0:32:59 > 0:33:02They're either going to look like transvestites or like Snow White

0:33:02 > 0:33:05but I think it might be the other one!

0:33:05 > 0:33:07Yeah! Oh, my God.

0:33:09 > 0:33:13- You look lovely. You do actually look lovely.- They don't fit.- Mike, look.

0:33:13 > 0:33:15It's completely hanging off me.

0:33:15 > 0:33:19- I think they're lovely, do you not like them?- No, not at all, Mike. - I feel like Bo Peep.

0:33:19 > 0:33:22- This is horrible. - I think they look good.- No.

0:33:22 > 0:33:24I tell you what, it's a good job I'm not a single lad.

0:33:24 > 0:33:29You'd be getting whipped off your feet! The thing is, the shop I went to,

0:33:29 > 0:33:32they're the only dresses that there's three of the same.

0:33:32 > 0:33:36- I think they look nice.- No. - She'll cry!- She'll cry, Mike.

0:33:36 > 0:33:37It's your wedding.

0:33:37 > 0:33:39HE SIGHS So you wouldn't wear them?

0:33:40 > 0:33:43- If it was a different colour... - Yeah.- ..then yes.

0:33:43 > 0:33:45There is no option on that.

0:33:45 > 0:33:48- I can't get three of the same. - Why can't you just take them back?

0:33:54 > 0:33:57That uncomfortable silence - you could cut it with a knife.

0:33:59 > 0:34:02- If there is seriously nothing... - We should just give up and wear them.

0:34:02 > 0:34:06- ..then we'll wear these. - You'll have to get them sized. - Sounds all right to me.- I give up.

0:34:06 > 0:34:09Mike's not backing down and the girls have no option

0:34:09 > 0:34:15but to wear the sparkly princess ballgowns on Katie's wedding day.

0:34:15 > 0:34:22- I feel so bad on Mike. I really, really do feel bad but...- I don't.

0:34:22 > 0:34:25He's not actually put any thought into this, has he?

0:34:25 > 0:34:27He's just thought, "That's a nice style,

0:34:27 > 0:34:29"that's a good deal, I'll have that."

0:34:30 > 0:34:32You look like you're going to cry!

0:34:32 > 0:34:34No, I just don't know what to think now.

0:34:37 > 0:34:41With the big day nearing, the dress disaster has left Mike

0:34:41 > 0:34:45doubting his straight-up, no-nonsense decision-making.

0:34:45 > 0:34:48If that's the reaction off the bridesmaids' dresses -

0:34:48 > 0:34:51and I thought they were all right, I still do...

0:34:53 > 0:34:58..what's my judgement on her wedding dress going to be like?

0:34:58 > 0:35:01Maybe I've got it wrong.

0:35:04 > 0:35:06I'm going to look back at this and cringe.

0:35:09 > 0:35:11# Where have you been all my life? #

0:35:11 > 0:35:15It's the weekend before the wedding and time for the hen and stag

0:35:15 > 0:35:18and where better to party than the Las Vegas of the North?

0:35:18 > 0:35:24Blackpool's famous for its wild hen parties and boisterous stag dos.

0:35:24 > 0:35:26MUSIC: "New World Symphony" by Dvorak

0:35:26 > 0:35:30But Mike's shunned all that in favour of a Sunday morning fishing trip.

0:35:31 > 0:35:34Caught summat.

0:35:34 > 0:35:37I think I have, hang on. Yeah, I've caught.

0:35:38 > 0:35:42- Well, anyway, 1-0.- Hey!- 1-0!

0:35:42 > 0:35:45Over at Katie's mum's,

0:35:45 > 0:35:48without an invite or any news on the wedding, the girls are worried

0:35:48 > 0:35:53about what Mike could possibly have planned for them on a Sunday.

0:35:54 > 0:35:58I feel a bit nervous and I don't get nervous easy.

0:35:58 > 0:36:00I don't know where I'm going, what I'm doing,

0:36:00 > 0:36:02I don't know what to wear.

0:36:04 > 0:36:08And it just makes you feel a bit unnerved, doesn't it? It's like...

0:36:08 > 0:36:11I can't imagine what he's having me doing.

0:36:12 > 0:36:18I'd hate to go somewhere, just where you're wet and muddy and...yeah.

0:36:19 > 0:36:22If I'm wet and muddy, it's just not good.

0:36:25 > 0:36:27But they needn't have worried

0:36:27 > 0:36:30as Mike's sent the girls to the countryside.

0:36:31 > 0:36:33And what better place for a glamorous bride

0:36:33 > 0:36:36who doesn't want a wet, muddy, scary hen do than...

0:36:36 > 0:36:38SCREAMING

0:36:38 > 0:36:40Oh, my God!

0:36:40 > 0:36:44..swinging from trees in the middle of nowhere?

0:36:44 > 0:36:45This is not fun!

0:36:45 > 0:36:48With no thought for girly pampering,

0:36:48 > 0:36:50Mike's macho mind has got the better of him,

0:36:50 > 0:36:52sending Katie and her pals

0:36:52 > 0:36:55to tackle a blokey treetop assault course.

0:36:55 > 0:36:57SCREAMING

0:36:57 > 0:36:59Oh, shit!

0:36:59 > 0:37:02He deserves a slap round the face with a wet fish.

0:37:02 > 0:37:04Oh, he got one!

0:37:04 > 0:37:07Oh, that was a slap, that!

0:37:07 > 0:37:11- # Gone fishin' - I'm real gone, man

0:37:11 > 0:37:14- # You ain't working any more - Could be. #

0:37:18 > 0:37:21- Right, are we going? Cos I'm fed up now.- We've done it.

0:37:22 > 0:37:27- You haven't enjoyed it? - No, I've bloody hated it! I have.

0:37:27 > 0:37:29I've got mud all over me,

0:37:29 > 0:37:33I've got bark in my knickers.

0:37:33 > 0:37:35So, no, I haven't really enjoyed it.

0:37:35 > 0:37:39As our unimpressed bride trudges off,

0:37:39 > 0:37:42Mike's soaking up the simple pleasures of...sitting on a boat?

0:37:44 > 0:37:47I just love that there's no-one around for miles.

0:37:49 > 0:37:52I'm just enjoying it, just enjoying chilling out, mate.

0:37:52 > 0:37:54# Gone fishin'

0:37:54 > 0:38:00# Oh, yeah. #

0:38:01 > 0:38:04With the bark safely removed from their knickers, the girls

0:38:04 > 0:38:08glam up as Mike's booked them into Katie's favourite restaurant.

0:38:08 > 0:38:11- Cheers!- To the bride!

0:38:11 > 0:38:15But they've had a first glimpse of Mike's wedding planning

0:38:15 > 0:38:18- and it's not gone down well. - 'She's putting a brave face on,'

0:38:18 > 0:38:21I don't think she's having a brilliant time.

0:38:21 > 0:38:23'It's on a Sunday, she's at work in the morning'

0:38:23 > 0:38:26- so she can't really have a good time partying, so...- Yeah.

0:38:28 > 0:38:35I'm a bit disappointed today. It just feels really unorganised so...

0:38:36 > 0:38:39Yeah, I'm losing faith fast.

0:38:39 > 0:38:43I just don't feel in the mood whatsoever.

0:38:43 > 0:38:45Bye!

0:38:51 > 0:38:53With just a few days left,

0:38:53 > 0:38:58Mike's keen to show Katie he CAN arrange a dream romantic wedding.

0:38:58 > 0:39:02He's at Blackpool beach to organise her invitation and for once,

0:39:02 > 0:39:07it involves a modern invention. Well, as modern as Mike gets anyway.

0:39:07 > 0:39:10Right, Ross, this is to make up for the crap engagement.

0:39:10 > 0:39:14I messed that looked so we'll at least get this bit right.

0:39:16 > 0:39:18As the boys rake away, across town,

0:39:18 > 0:39:21Mike's booked a taxi for Katie and bridesmaid Laura.

0:39:22 > 0:39:23Hiya.

0:39:23 > 0:39:27I think it's your invitation, yeah. He needs to, he needs to get

0:39:27 > 0:39:29the invite to you. It's been too long now.

0:39:29 > 0:39:32All I wanted was a little card through my letterbox.

0:39:35 > 0:39:40With Katie en route, Mike's putting the finishing touches

0:39:40 > 0:39:43to his grand, romantic - if somewhat sandy - invite.

0:39:45 > 0:39:52OK, thank you very much. "Blackpool Aviation and Operations Centre."

0:39:52 > 0:39:55- I don't even know what that means. Do you?- No, I don't.

0:39:58 > 0:40:02- OK, ladies, we're going for a short flight.- Oh, my God.

0:40:05 > 0:40:07- You do know, I hate flying, don't you?- So do I!

0:40:07 > 0:40:11Mike's hired a plane but the girls still have no idea what he's up to.

0:40:11 > 0:40:14- Just wake me up when it's all over. - Just squeeze up like that.

0:40:17 > 0:40:19Oh, yeah, looks really good.

0:40:19 > 0:40:25I'm glad I'm doing this because it makes up for...for a bad proposal.

0:40:25 > 0:40:27Hopefully she'll appreciate it.

0:40:27 > 0:40:30I hope so, cos I think it's quite a nice gesture

0:40:30 > 0:40:31but we'll see, won't we?

0:40:31 > 0:40:35SCREAMING AND ENGINE ROARING

0:40:35 > 0:40:37Oh, no!

0:40:41 > 0:40:47Oh, my stomach. Oh! Oh, my God!

0:40:47 > 0:40:49As the plane heads towards the beach,

0:40:49 > 0:40:52Katie and Mike are about to catch a glimpse of each other

0:40:52 > 0:40:55for the first time in nearly three weeks.

0:40:56 > 0:40:58I can see him waving.

0:40:58 > 0:41:04MUSIC: "Sweet Disposition" by The Temper Trap

0:41:05 > 0:41:10- There it is. "Katie, marry me, Friday 29th."- Friday!

0:41:10 > 0:41:17- It says, "Katie, marry me on Friday." Aww.- Aww!

0:41:17 > 0:41:21That's definitely made up for the rubbish proposal.

0:41:21 > 0:41:25- It was amazing, that. - Yeah.- Made me cry. Aww.

0:41:25 > 0:41:28So nice, and to see him waving... Oh, my God!

0:41:33 > 0:41:35'To be this near to her

0:41:35 > 0:41:38'and not be able to say hello or owt is a bit strange.'

0:41:38 > 0:41:42Hopefully she's seen it so she'll turn up on the day. But...

0:41:42 > 0:41:44I don't know, it's not a happy feeling.

0:41:44 > 0:41:48I'll be honest, it's not a happy feeling stood here cos it's...

0:41:49 > 0:41:55..you know what I mean, you've got your wife-to-be up in a plane and you're down here, with a rake.

0:42:05 > 0:42:08With less than 48 hours until the wedding,

0:42:08 > 0:42:10Mike's off to see best man Ross to add up his budget.

0:42:12 > 0:42:15But our outdated groom usually leaves household bills

0:42:15 > 0:42:19to the missus, so this is alien territory.

0:42:19 > 0:42:22£11,720.

0:42:22 > 0:42:25- That's it. Hang on a minute. - And then 400 for the string quartet.

0:42:25 > 0:42:28We're £200 over budget.

0:42:28 > 0:42:34119, I've not bought a glass of wine for a person. Tell you what...

0:42:34 > 0:42:39Oh, I don't want to jack the string quartet, but why are they so expensive?

0:42:44 > 0:42:46Is there anything we can cancel?

0:42:49 > 0:42:52I can't do it. I've not bought a drink for anyone.

0:42:52 > 0:42:56I can't have people not have a drink and have violins going on.

0:42:56 > 0:42:59I can't do the violins. I'll ring her now and tell her.

0:42:59 > 0:43:03It's not happening. I can't afford to finish the wedding the way I want.

0:43:03 > 0:43:06It was a nice thought. It would have been nice.

0:43:06 > 0:43:07I'm over it.

0:43:07 > 0:43:11,Mike has overspent and the first thing to go

0:43:11 > 0:43:14is the romantic string quartet,

0:43:14 > 0:43:17something Marilyn and Katie probably would have liked.

0:43:19 > 0:43:22It's the day before the wedding and Katie is off to the dress shop

0:43:22 > 0:43:25with her mum and bridesmaids.

0:43:25 > 0:43:29She's hoping Mike's picked a dress fit for a movie star.

0:43:29 > 0:43:31I'm trying to keep positive, but it's difficult.

0:43:31 > 0:43:37It's the unknown. I don't have a clue what I'm about to see.

0:43:37 > 0:43:43I am feeling nervous. I've got butterflies in my stomach!

0:43:43 > 0:43:46- This is your dress.- Wow!

0:43:47 > 0:43:50Don't look so worried!

0:43:50 > 0:43:54His choice of ball gowns may not have gone down well

0:43:54 > 0:43:57but will his wedding dress be glamorous enough

0:43:57 > 0:44:00for a hard-working nurse who dreams of Hollywood?

0:44:00 > 0:44:04I'm nervous because I'm in shock about what he chose

0:44:04 > 0:44:06for our bridesmaid dresses.

0:44:06 > 0:44:13I'm worried that he might go for the similar sort of style.

0:44:13 > 0:44:16SHE LAUGHS

0:44:16 > 0:44:19- Face that when it comes!- Yes!

0:44:23 > 0:44:26My word! I didn't expect it to be that big!

0:44:28 > 0:44:32It's really not what I expected. I'm quite shocked.

0:44:32 > 0:44:34Ladies, are we ready to see the bride?

0:44:34 > 0:44:36ALL: Yes!

0:44:36 > 0:44:37Here we go.

0:44:37 > 0:44:39THEY GASP

0:44:39 > 0:44:43- You look lovely! - Look at that dress!

0:44:43 > 0:44:46That is so nice!

0:44:48 > 0:44:50You look amazing!

0:44:50 > 0:44:52ALL TALK AT ONCE

0:44:56 > 0:44:57I can't talk!

0:44:57 > 0:45:00It's beautiful. You look beautiful in it.

0:45:00 > 0:45:04I feel absolutely gorgeous!

0:45:04 > 0:45:05And a bit princessy.

0:45:05 > 0:45:09I didn't think I would go for a princessy

0:45:09 > 0:45:10but it's stunning.

0:45:10 > 0:45:13I cannot believe that he's chosen this.

0:45:13 > 0:45:16It's not what I expected at all.

0:45:16 > 0:45:19It's better than anything I'd have picked.

0:45:19 > 0:45:22It's gorgeous.

0:45:22 > 0:45:24It couldn't be better.

0:45:26 > 0:45:30It may be more Cinderella than Some Like It Hot,

0:45:30 > 0:45:34but somehow Mike has chosen a dress she likes.

0:45:34 > 0:45:36ALL TALK AT ONCE

0:45:36 > 0:45:38You look so beautiful!

0:45:38 > 0:45:41- Beautiful!- It's stunning!

0:45:41 > 0:45:44A happy Katie leaves with her stunning dress.

0:45:44 > 0:45:49Will she be as happy tomorrow when she finds out she'll be wearing it

0:45:49 > 0:45:53on a bouncy castle in the middle of Blackpool?

0:45:54 > 0:45:59It's the morning of the wedding and Katie's still beaming.

0:45:59 > 0:46:01It won't be long till she's back with Mike.

0:46:01 > 0:46:05I can't wait now. I can't wait to see him.

0:46:05 > 0:46:07I feel like I should be doing something.

0:46:07 > 0:46:08I'm just sat here waiting.

0:46:08 > 0:46:12- I'm not good at waiting. - Not knowing as well.

0:46:12 > 0:46:14I'm sure it'll be fine. He'll have thought of everything.

0:46:16 > 0:46:18No, not sure he's thought of everything!

0:46:18 > 0:46:21Meanwhile, at the best man's house,

0:46:21 > 0:46:25Mike's putting his all into the big day.

0:46:25 > 0:46:27I'll get the cake. Drop the cake off at the Winter Gardens,

0:46:27 > 0:46:30pick the hand-tied up, come back here, pick my suit up,

0:46:30 > 0:46:32pick me bits up, straight back down there,

0:46:32 > 0:46:34You've got the hand-tied,

0:46:34 > 0:46:36- I'll take the flowers. - You'll take the flowers.

0:46:36 > 0:46:41Katie's about to get her first surprise of the day.

0:46:41 > 0:46:44But what will she make of Mike's over-the-top ball gowns?

0:46:47 > 0:46:48THEY LAUGH

0:46:48 > 0:46:51Oh, my... I didn't expect that!

0:46:51 > 0:46:53I love them. I love them.

0:46:53 > 0:46:55- Seriously?- I love them. I'd have never have picked that.

0:46:55 > 0:47:00But that is gorgeous. So different from every other wedding.

0:47:00 > 0:47:02It's really nice.

0:47:02 > 0:47:03Group hug!

0:47:03 > 0:47:06- Yeah!- I love your hair as well!

0:47:06 > 0:47:10With the wedding looming, Mike and best man Ross head to the venue.

0:47:10 > 0:47:12It should be fine, as long as they haven't forgotten

0:47:12 > 0:47:14anything massively important.

0:47:14 > 0:47:16- Did you pick the rings up?- What?

0:47:16 > 0:47:19You said you'd keep them on you.

0:47:21 > 0:47:24Tell me we've not lost the ring. Tell me we've not lost the ring.

0:47:24 > 0:47:28You need to get them. I've not picked them up.

0:47:28 > 0:47:29I forgot the rings - dickhead!

0:47:29 > 0:47:31There's still a lot to do, and Mike's got no option

0:47:31 > 0:47:35but to send a friend back to pick up the rings.

0:47:35 > 0:47:38And the buttonholes. He forgot those too.

0:47:38 > 0:47:40I've got to be in here and I've got to sort this shit out.

0:47:40 > 0:47:43Is there any way you can... I've got to meet and greet people.

0:47:43 > 0:47:46- I'll go off in this. - You go off in this.

0:47:46 > 0:47:47We'll carry this out now.

0:47:47 > 0:47:51- What am I collecting from yours? - Buttonholes, rings...

0:47:51 > 0:47:55Blissfully unaware of her ringless groom,

0:47:55 > 0:47:58Katie's adding the finishing touches to her glamorous gown

0:47:58 > 0:48:00with the help of son Jack.

0:48:00 > 0:48:02ALL TALK AT ONCE

0:48:02 > 0:48:04Tell her nice!

0:48:04 > 0:48:07- Ah! Look at that face. - I feel gorgeous.

0:48:07 > 0:48:09- Me too.- Do you?

0:48:09 > 0:48:12You look very handsome, don't you?

0:48:12 > 0:48:15THEY LAUGH

0:48:15 > 0:48:19In less than an hour, Katie will find out

0:48:19 > 0:48:21whether Mike's truly coped without her.

0:48:21 > 0:48:24It's actually happening now.

0:48:24 > 0:48:26You seem to run with everything because you're busy

0:48:26 > 0:48:29and then you're like, "Actually, I'm getting married now."

0:48:29 > 0:48:32- Suddenly, yeah.- I can't believe it's finally arrived.

0:48:32 > 0:48:36All seems well as Katie's next surprise arrives -

0:48:36 > 0:48:38a car fit for a movie star.

0:48:38 > 0:48:40Wow, that's amazing.

0:48:40 > 0:48:43- I'm guessing you're for me. - I'm for you!

0:48:43 > 0:48:45So far so good.

0:48:45 > 0:48:50Katie can only hope her plush car is taking her to

0:48:50 > 0:48:52the mansion of her dreams.

0:48:52 > 0:48:57- We're lingering around Blackpool. - We are lingering around Blackpool.

0:49:07 > 0:49:10- We're very central, aren't we?- Can't get much more central than that.

0:49:10 > 0:49:17I'm nervous now. It's not what I had as an ideal place.

0:49:20 > 0:49:23It's been a difficult time for Mike,

0:49:23 > 0:49:25who's put everything into organising the dream day

0:49:25 > 0:49:29for his wife-to-be. The pressure is starting to show.

0:49:29 > 0:49:33Need to get changed for my own wedding.

0:49:36 > 0:49:38Fuck's sake! Can you give me a minute?

0:49:38 > 0:49:43Mike's nowhere near ready. Unfortunately, his guests are.

0:49:43 > 0:49:46She was hoping for the Country House Hotel.

0:49:46 > 0:49:48In the middle of Blackpool will be a bit of a surprise.

0:49:48 > 0:49:52But, if the room is beautiful, that will be good.

0:49:52 > 0:49:55It's essential that it is!

0:50:04 > 0:50:07- The Winter Gardens. - The Winter Gardens?

0:50:07 > 0:50:09I'll have to see when I get in there

0:50:09 > 0:50:12before I'm convinced.

0:50:12 > 0:50:16- Look - everyone's looking at me! - I know.

0:50:16 > 0:50:19It's not what I expected.

0:50:19 > 0:50:22Katie may be unimpressed with the city-centre location.

0:50:22 > 0:50:27But she's minutes away from the surname she's always wanted

0:50:27 > 0:50:30and her now bow-tied husband.

0:50:30 > 0:50:33Would all the guests please stand?

0:50:44 > 0:50:46I'm scared!

0:50:53 > 0:50:56Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen.

0:50:56 > 0:50:59If anyone here knows of any reason why this man and this woman

0:50:59 > 0:51:01may not be joined in marriage,

0:51:01 > 0:51:03then you should declare it now.

0:51:03 > 0:51:05Give it a minute.

0:51:05 > 0:51:08LAUGHTER

0:51:08 > 0:51:09- Carry on.- You're all right!

0:51:09 > 0:51:11LAUGHTER

0:51:11 > 0:51:14I, Michael Lewis Plows do take Katherine Leigh Twentyman

0:51:14 > 0:51:16to be my lawful wedded wife,

0:51:16 > 0:51:19to cherish and care for you, whatever the future may bring.

0:51:19 > 0:51:24I, Katherine Leigh Twentyman do take thee, Michael Lewis Plows

0:51:24 > 0:51:26to be my lawful wedded husband.

0:51:26 > 0:51:29Michael and Katherine, it now gives me the greatest of pleasure

0:51:29 > 0:51:32to tell you that you are husband and wife together.

0:51:32 > 0:51:35Congratulations.

0:51:35 > 0:51:37CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:51:42 > 0:51:44PARTY POPPERS EXPLODE

0:51:51 > 0:51:54- Give us a minute.- Are you all right? - I just miss you.

0:51:54 > 0:51:56Honestly, you've done absolutely amazing.

0:51:56 > 0:51:58You've done good.

0:51:59 > 0:52:05It's been three long weeks but Mike and Katie are back together -

0:52:05 > 0:52:07as husband and wife at last.

0:52:07 > 0:52:09I'm really surprised, actually!

0:52:09 > 0:52:11He's done so well.

0:52:11 > 0:52:13The venue is beautiful.

0:52:13 > 0:52:16She looks so stunning and so happy.

0:52:16 > 0:52:18That's really what we wanted for them both.

0:52:22 > 0:52:25The bridesmaids are on side with his ceremony.

0:52:26 > 0:52:30But what will the new Mrs Plows make of Blackpool's bonanza?

0:52:32 > 0:52:33Oh, wow!

0:52:33 > 0:52:36- What do you think? - It's gorgeous in here.

0:52:36 > 0:52:38It's lovely, isn't it?

0:52:38 > 0:52:41- What have you been up to?- Flipping heck, yeah!- You've been busy.- Yeah.

0:52:41 > 0:52:45It may not be every bride's dream to have a bouncy castle at her wedding

0:52:45 > 0:52:48but it seems Katie's taking it in her stride.

0:52:48 > 0:52:50And she's loving it.

0:52:50 > 0:52:52What more do you want from a wedding?!

0:52:54 > 0:52:55Watch this!

0:53:00 > 0:53:04- Are you up for it? - I think that's on full speed.

0:53:04 > 0:53:06SHE LAUGHS

0:53:08 > 0:53:10- I think it's amazing. - Good.- I really do.

0:53:12 > 0:53:16It seems the groom who was out of touch with the modern world

0:53:16 > 0:53:21has pulled off this wedding, with a spot of Blackpool charm.

0:53:21 > 0:53:25But in true Mike style, he hasn't prepared a speech.

0:53:25 > 0:53:27APPLAUSE

0:53:27 > 0:53:30I didn't realise I'd be saying anything

0:53:30 > 0:53:31so I've not prepared anything.

0:53:31 > 0:53:33I'm going to keep it short and sweet, like me.

0:53:33 > 0:53:36Here we go.

0:53:36 > 0:53:42I've enjoyed the process with my friends, doing it together.

0:53:42 > 0:53:44I want to say thanks to everyone for coming.

0:53:44 > 0:53:47Thank you. That's it. There's not much else to say.

0:53:47 > 0:53:50CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:53:50 > 0:53:52I thought I was good at making quick decisions.

0:53:52 > 0:53:54I'm not that great.

0:53:56 > 0:53:58It was just so hard to do.

0:53:58 > 0:54:04To say, "Smash it. Easy." You can't say them words.

0:54:04 > 0:54:06Them words can't really come out of your mouth.

0:54:06 > 0:54:07It's not easy.

0:54:07 > 0:54:12I probably wouldn't have had a buckaroo...at my wedding.

0:54:12 > 0:54:14Actually, definitely not.

0:54:14 > 0:54:16But, all the fun things you've put into it,

0:54:16 > 0:54:21like the bouncy castle in the middle of the dance floor, I love it.

0:54:21 > 0:54:23- It's shown that you can make decisions.- Yeah.

0:54:23 > 0:54:27Don't doubt yourself so much, because you can do it.

0:54:27 > 0:54:31Don't make me make any more - I couldn't do it.

0:54:31 > 0:54:35Mike may have doubted his own decisions

0:54:35 > 0:54:37but it looks like they've paid off.

0:54:37 > 0:54:40His bouncy reception is a hit.

0:54:42 > 0:54:46It's been wonderful and very eccentric is the word

0:54:46 > 0:54:47that I would use.

0:54:47 > 0:54:52Lots of lovely, random parts that came together in a strange mixture.

0:54:52 > 0:54:57The thing with Mike, as long as you're happy, he's happy.

0:54:57 > 0:54:58That's always been the way.

0:54:58 > 0:55:02Everyone's having a good time. Katie's happy, so, yeah. Loved it.

0:55:10 > 0:55:14Today has been absolutely fantastic.

0:55:14 > 0:55:16I've enjoyed every minute.

0:55:17 > 0:55:20Planning a girlie wedding for a wannabe Marilyn

0:55:20 > 0:55:25wasn't easy for macho Mike. But gentlemen prefer blondes.

0:55:25 > 0:55:30And this blonde prefers Mike just the way he is.

0:55:30 > 0:55:32# It may be quite simple but

0:55:32 > 0:55:35# Now that it's done... #

0:55:35 > 0:55:39I think you've done an amazing job and I'm proud of you.

0:55:39 > 0:55:43- Thanks. - You've done absolutely amazing.

0:55:43 > 0:55:47# How wonderful life is

0:55:47 > 0:55:51# Now you're in the world... #

0:55:51 > 0:55:53There's something I want to say to you.

0:55:53 > 0:55:56How rubbish I am, how great you are.

0:55:56 > 0:55:59So...thanks for marrying me.

0:55:59 > 0:56:01No, thanks for marrying me.

0:56:01 > 0:56:03I think you've done amazing.

0:56:03 > 0:56:05You really have.

0:56:05 > 0:56:07- Thank you.- Yeah, good.

0:56:07 > 0:56:10Dearie me!

0:56:10 > 0:56:12Next time...

0:56:12 > 0:56:15Will it be a historic wedding for all the wrong reasons...

0:56:15 > 0:56:20You don't have to worry about breaking anyone's legs.

0:56:20 > 0:56:22..when a groom is stuck in the 18th century...

0:56:22 > 0:56:25I'm not normal. I happily admit that.

0:56:25 > 0:56:27..gives a history-hating hairdresser...

0:56:27 > 0:56:28I can't believe he's done that!

0:56:28 > 0:56:31..a day she'll never forget?

0:56:31 > 0:56:35I love him! I really love him! But he better get it right.

0:56:35 > 0:56:36# Ooh, baby

0:56:36 > 0:56:39# Here I am Signed, sealed delivered

0:56:39 > 0:56:41# I'm yours

0:56:45 > 0:56:47# Then that time I went and said goodbye

0:56:50 > 0:56:52# Now I'm back and not ashamed to cry

0:56:52 > 0:56:54# Ooh, baby

0:56:54 > 0:56:57# Here I am Signed, sealed delivered

0:56:57 > 0:56:59# I'm yours

0:56:59 > 0:57:01# Ohhh... #
