0:00:02 > 0:00:06This programme contains some strong language

0:00:06 > 0:00:08- Every girl dreams of her wedding. - I want to be you now.

0:00:08 > 0:00:10But what happens when she has no say on her big day?

0:00:10 > 0:00:15- Don't Tell The Bride is back. - This is all for the name of love.

0:00:15 > 0:00:1712 gallant grooms...

0:00:17 > 0:00:19are taking control.

0:00:19 > 0:00:25With 12 grand apiece and just three weeks to organise a wedding.

0:00:25 > 0:00:27What an absolute idiot.

0:00:27 > 0:00:28They're more daring...

0:00:28 > 0:00:31- Why are we here?- ..more ambitious... - Why has he done this?

0:00:31 > 0:00:36- ..and more outrageous than ever before.- It's not a joke.

0:00:36 > 0:00:40- Will the glass slipper fit? - Oh, my word.- Hell, no.

0:00:40 > 0:00:44- Will true love conquer all? - Horrid, horrid, horrid.

0:00:44 > 0:00:46Oh, my God, it's going to be on a beach.

0:00:48 > 0:00:50And will there be a fairytale ending...

0:00:50 > 0:00:52I don't like it.

0:00:52 > 0:00:55- Is it the right ring? - Turn the camera off.

0:00:55 > 0:00:57..or just a damsel in distress?

0:00:57 > 0:01:00- Wishes do come true. - Sometimes they don't.

0:01:01 > 0:01:06Tonight, motorbike-mad Luke aims to keep his wedding plans on track...

0:01:06 > 0:01:08- Incredible. - ..with a high octane wedding...

0:01:08 > 0:01:11The bikes come down here, drop her off.

0:01:11 > 0:01:14..his traditional bride-to-be won't forget.

0:01:14 > 0:01:18Whilst Jess has her heart set on an intimate church wedding...

0:01:18 > 0:01:20This would be my perfect place to get married. It really would.

0:01:20 > 0:01:23- I'm going to cry.- Don't cry.

0:01:23 > 0:01:26..Luke is putting bikes before his bride.

0:01:26 > 0:01:28I think they will probably enjoy the day more than Jess might do.

0:01:28 > 0:01:31Will this groom stay in pole position...

0:01:31 > 0:01:33I don't think any of us thought

0:01:33 > 0:01:35we would be shovelling poo on my hen do.

0:01:35 > 0:01:37..or crash and burn before the finish line?

0:01:37 > 0:01:40It's looking like there's going to be no bridesmaids.

0:01:40 > 0:01:44I promised I wasn't going to do this over a bloody dress.

0:01:56 > 0:02:00Laid-back Luke met animal-loving Jess on a night out in Derby

0:02:00 > 0:02:03- eight years ago.- We actually met on a corner of the street.

0:02:03 > 0:02:08She caught my eye. That short little skirt.

0:02:08 > 0:02:13I said, I know who you are. You're Paul Tomlinson's son, aren't you?

0:02:13 > 0:02:15And he kind of a little bit panic stricken,

0:02:15 > 0:02:17"How do you know that?"

0:02:17 > 0:02:19We actually met each other when we were just minutes old,

0:02:19 > 0:02:23due to the fact that our parents know each other, were good friends

0:02:23 > 0:02:25together, and I guess you could say

0:02:25 > 0:02:28our first actual meeting place was on the maternity ward.

0:02:28 > 0:02:31But there were something else that united these two families.

0:02:31 > 0:02:36Jess's mum and dad have got a motorbike. My dad has got two bikes.

0:02:36 > 0:02:40They are all Harley-Davidsons. That is the big...

0:02:40 > 0:02:43the big link, if you like.

0:02:43 > 0:02:46And like father, like son.

0:02:46 > 0:02:49Luke is never happier than when he's on his racing bike.

0:02:49 > 0:02:50I suppose you could say that

0:02:50 > 0:02:52I will ever ride my bike as much as I want.

0:02:52 > 0:02:54That'll probably be every day.

0:02:54 > 0:02:57But while her parents, future in-laws

0:02:57 > 0:03:02and fiance are all motorbike-mad, Jess, well, Jess isn't.

0:03:02 > 0:03:05I'm not really that interested in motorbike racing.

0:03:07 > 0:03:09It's just sounds like noise.

0:03:09 > 0:03:12They do share one big passion, though. Their home.

0:03:12 > 0:03:14And two years ago, they ploughed all of their money

0:03:14 > 0:03:16into buying their first place together.

0:03:16 > 0:03:21We bought a house which was virtually derelict and since then,

0:03:21 > 0:03:24any spare money has just gone straight into this place.

0:03:24 > 0:03:26Money is not always spare, is it?

0:03:26 > 0:03:28- It's either begged, borrowed or stolen.- No.

0:03:28 > 0:03:31Yes, my now have to work evenings

0:03:31 > 0:03:34and weekends just to get an extra income every month to keep

0:03:34 > 0:03:36the house moving on, otherwise it would never end.

0:03:36 > 0:03:39And this hard-working duo aren't scared of hard graft,

0:03:39 > 0:03:42with Luke putting in long hours as a cable jointer

0:03:42 > 0:03:44and Jess working long shifts as a veterinary surgeon.

0:03:44 > 0:03:49- You won't feel a thing.- She is ever so good.- Oh, there we go.

0:03:50 > 0:03:53But Jess's dream of becoming a vet

0:03:53 > 0:03:54took its toll on their relationship.

0:03:54 > 0:03:58While she was studying in London, Luke stayed in Derby.

0:03:58 > 0:04:01It was a long-distance relationship.

0:04:01 > 0:04:04It started to get really tough after a couple of years.

0:04:04 > 0:04:07And I think at that point, when you been together three years,

0:04:07 > 0:04:10I think he needed to see a little bit more from me.

0:04:10 > 0:04:13I was, sort of, always nipping to London and back,

0:04:13 > 0:04:16and she was so focused on what she was doing then, you know,

0:04:16 > 0:04:19it just sort of boiled over a little bit

0:04:19 > 0:04:21and I was like, "You know what?

0:04:21 > 0:04:22"I want to finish this."

0:04:25 > 0:04:29When we separated, I felt like I had lost part of myself.

0:04:29 > 0:04:32It was really, really tough. Really tough.

0:04:32 > 0:04:34I couldn't think about him

0:04:34 > 0:04:38being with anybody else or being a bit of a lad.

0:04:40 > 0:04:44Met another couple of girls, which didn't really work out, to be fair.

0:04:44 > 0:04:46I never really just had that bond with them,

0:04:46 > 0:04:49never had that quite same connection.

0:04:49 > 0:04:53And I realised that actually, I needed to get through my degree,

0:04:53 > 0:04:55but then Luke was that other part that I wanted.

0:05:02 > 0:05:05So as soon as she called me up, five or six months later,

0:05:05 > 0:05:07it was just there straight away.

0:05:07 > 0:05:09The couple are back together,

0:05:09 > 0:05:12but it's not been an easy ride for Luke.

0:05:12 > 0:05:16Obviously, people are concerned from her side, that I leave her,

0:05:16 > 0:05:17sort of, really upset again.

0:05:17 > 0:05:22So it took a lot of convincing a lot of people, certainly her dad.

0:05:22 > 0:05:25I said to him, it's going to take a long time.

0:05:25 > 0:05:27Fingers crossed, things can get back to

0:05:27 > 0:05:29how they were, but you've got some

0:05:29 > 0:05:34proving to do, some trust to gain back and definitely some respect.

0:05:37 > 0:05:40Now, with the wedding day solely in Luke's hands,

0:05:40 > 0:05:43it's his chance to finally redeem himself.

0:05:43 > 0:05:45So if the wedding day is a success, if you like,

0:05:45 > 0:05:49her dad is going to see that as a good thing from my point of view.

0:05:49 > 0:05:52So long as Dad can see that he has taken it seriously and he's

0:05:52 > 0:05:56done the best that he can do, I think he will have his respect.

0:05:56 > 0:05:58But for this bride and her protective biker dad,

0:05:58 > 0:06:00only one type of wedding will do.

0:06:00 > 0:06:04Getting married in a church is really, really quite important.

0:06:04 > 0:06:06Not just to me, but to my family as well.

0:06:06 > 0:06:10It's going to be important to my dad that there is a traditional

0:06:10 > 0:06:13aspect, that it is a serious thing that you're doing.

0:06:13 > 0:06:15And luckily, bike fanatic Luke

0:06:15 > 0:06:17is taking his wedding plans very seriously.

0:06:17 > 0:06:21I want this to be a day to remember by incorporating the whole

0:06:21 > 0:06:22motorbike thing into it.

0:06:22 > 0:06:27I always talk about how passionate I am about the bikes and how really,

0:06:27 > 0:06:28if it wasn't for motorbikes,

0:06:28 > 0:06:30all them years ago, we wouldn't be together.

0:06:30 > 0:06:33For that reason, I want that to be the main focus.

0:06:36 > 0:06:37So this groom knows what he wants,

0:06:37 > 0:06:40but he also knows that there's a lot at stake.

0:06:40 > 0:06:42Yes, you have seen her dad.

0:06:42 > 0:06:46You will know that he's quite a scary guy

0:06:46 > 0:06:49so you don't want to upset him.

0:06:49 > 0:06:52If I was Luke, I'd be doing my homework

0:06:52 > 0:06:56and making sure that he not only makes a good day for Jess,

0:06:56 > 0:07:00but keeps Jessica's dad and mum - us - happy.

0:07:07 > 0:07:10It's almost time for the couple to say goodbye.

0:07:10 > 0:07:12And for an anxious Jess, it's a

0:07:12 > 0:07:16final chance for her to give Luke some gentle words of advice.

0:07:16 > 0:07:20- You'll know about it if you get it wrong.- OK.- Yes.

0:07:20 > 0:07:22I'm glad you've got confidence.

0:07:22 > 0:07:25Maybe for the first few months of marriage,

0:07:25 > 0:07:26it might not be wedded less.

0:07:26 > 0:07:29It might be more like, you know, that you have messed up.

0:07:29 > 0:07:31Might leave a mess.

0:07:31 > 0:07:33Hopefully you'll be happy with it.

0:07:33 > 0:07:36This is the first time they will have lived apart

0:07:36 > 0:07:39since Jess was at university.

0:07:41 > 0:07:42You ready?

0:07:46 > 0:07:47This is it.

0:07:53 > 0:07:56I'm going to miss you.

0:07:56 > 0:07:58I'll miss you too.

0:07:58 > 0:08:02- You'll be all right. - So will you. Do a good job.- Yeah.

0:08:02 > 0:08:08- Just think, 21 days I'll be counting down.- 20½.

0:08:08 > 0:08:10Don't get stressed.

0:08:10 > 0:08:12Stay laid-back. But not too laid-back.

0:08:12 > 0:08:14The next time they'll see each other

0:08:14 > 0:08:16will be on their wedding day.

0:08:16 > 0:08:19There will be times when I will have a bit of a cry

0:08:19 > 0:08:22and I will be quite upset because I just miss him so much,

0:08:22 > 0:08:25but it is all for a good reason, really,

0:08:25 > 0:08:28and that's that we are finally getting married after eight years.

0:08:28 > 0:08:32It is all starting to sink in now. Tough three weeks ahead.

0:08:32 > 0:08:36But I'm ready for a challenge. This is it. Just make it happen.

0:08:36 > 0:08:38Jess will spend the next three weeks down the road

0:08:38 > 0:08:40at her parents' house

0:08:40 > 0:08:43in the Derbyshire village where she grew up.

0:08:44 > 0:08:50There to welcome her home are mom Denise and adoring dad Rob.

0:08:50 > 0:08:54What have we done to deserve this? Hey up, you all right?

0:08:54 > 0:08:56But it's not long before talk turns to the wedding

0:08:56 > 0:09:01and their concerns for their only daughter's big day.

0:09:01 > 0:09:05What worries me about Luke is I know how laid-back he is.

0:09:05 > 0:09:08Normally we'd be having a lot more input.

0:09:08 > 0:09:11Because of the situation now, it goes on to Luke.

0:09:11 > 0:09:13It gives us some concerns, obviously.

0:09:13 > 0:09:16I think he's really desperate to prove something to you.

0:09:16 > 0:09:18Obviously with a time limit, and a budget, there's only

0:09:18 > 0:09:20so much he's going to be able to do.

0:09:20 > 0:09:22What about his best men -

0:09:22 > 0:09:26do you think they'll kick his butt if they need to?

0:09:26 > 0:09:29Just depends how much they know about weddings.

0:09:29 > 0:09:30Neither of them are married.

0:09:30 > 0:09:32I don't think they've been to a lot of weddings.

0:09:32 > 0:09:37Fingers crossed things will come together over three weeks.

0:09:42 > 0:09:46But Jess's dad needn't worry. Luke is already on the case.

0:09:46 > 0:09:49And what better place for him

0:09:49 > 0:09:51to reveal his master plan to best man Ben...

0:09:51 > 0:09:52- Hey up, mate.- How's it going? - All right?

0:09:52 > 0:09:54..than the local arcade?

0:09:54 > 0:09:58- So, mate, why are we down here?- We need to talk about the wedding theme.

0:09:58 > 0:10:03It's all about the bikes. Ideally a racetrack. Donington Park.

0:10:09 > 0:10:12Which part of Jess's wedding scrapbook

0:10:12 > 0:10:15- had a picture of a Ducati in there? - When she handed over to me, mate.

0:10:15 > 0:10:19So, are you getting her dad on the bike as well? He rides bikes.

0:10:19 > 0:10:21- Potentially, yes. Definitely.- Jess?

0:10:21 > 0:10:26- She could have a jacket, couldn't she?- White leather wedding dress.

0:10:26 > 0:10:30To top it all, mate, we could even use a podium.

0:10:30 > 0:10:35Use the podium to get married on. Yeah, that's not bad, is it?

0:10:35 > 0:10:38That's a great idea. See? Coming round now, aren't you?

0:10:38 > 0:10:41Best man could be in second place. That would be all right.

0:10:41 > 0:10:45- Maid of honour in third. That is all right.- Exactly!

0:10:45 > 0:10:48Exactly? I think he's being sarcastic, Luke.

0:10:48 > 0:10:50MUSIC: "Shut Up And Drive" by Rihanna

0:11:01 > 0:11:03It's day one of wedding planning

0:11:03 > 0:11:05and with his heart set on a biker wedding, Luke has

0:11:05 > 0:11:10brought Ben to the home of British motorcycle racing, Donington Park.

0:11:12 > 0:11:17It's got everything a bride would want - tarmac, noise, petrol fumes

0:11:17 > 0:11:21and a close proximity to the East Midlands Airport flight path.

0:11:21 > 0:11:25- Now we're talking.- So are you excited, now you're here?

0:11:25 > 0:11:30- Very excited. You get that buzz, don't you?- YOU do.- I do, definitely.

0:11:30 > 0:11:33Not quite as much my scene but, yes. No, it's good.

0:11:33 > 0:11:36I can see how you could use this, if they were coming down here.

0:11:36 > 0:11:38- This could work. - It would be amazing.

0:11:38 > 0:11:41- The place is massive, isn't it? - Great view out there.

0:11:41 > 0:11:45- You think Jess would appreciate a quick lap of honour?- I reckon so.

0:11:45 > 0:11:46I think so.

0:11:48 > 0:11:50Or she might just appreciate this.

0:11:50 > 0:11:52The stunning Calke Abbey in Derbyshire,

0:11:52 > 0:11:55where she has brought Mum and bridesmaids

0:11:55 > 0:11:58Nick, Josie and Kirsty for a glimpse of her dream rustic venue.

0:11:58 > 0:12:02This is lovely, Jessica. This is just what your dad would want for you.

0:12:05 > 0:12:09The historic site dates back to medieval times and most

0:12:09 > 0:12:13importantly for Jess and her dad, it features a 19th-century church.

0:12:13 > 0:12:20Oh, my God. Look how lovely it is. Oh, this is lovely.

0:12:20 > 0:12:23What you think Dad would think?

0:12:23 > 0:12:28- I think this is possibly what your dad would...- Yeah.- ..would picture...

0:12:29 > 0:12:32- ..for you. I could cry.- Don't cry!

0:12:32 > 0:12:36Well, you might when you see where you could be getting married.

0:12:41 > 0:12:43So, what are you thinking?

0:12:43 > 0:12:46Maybe we could get, like, a marquee or something on there?

0:12:46 > 0:12:48- Quite big, isn't it?- This feels good.

0:12:48 > 0:12:50It feels different to be stood here.

0:12:50 > 0:12:53Puts some perspective on it doesn't it?

0:12:53 > 0:12:54I think this could work, mate.

0:12:54 > 0:12:57The bikes come down here. Everyone is set up here.

0:12:57 > 0:12:58Come down that little slip there

0:12:58 > 0:13:01and actually ride past over the brow of the hill,

0:13:01 > 0:13:02back up, and then they'd

0:13:02 > 0:13:07actually have to drop down into the Melbourne, park up, drop her off.

0:13:07 > 0:13:10- Down the aisle.- Down the aisle! Down the Melbourne.

0:13:10 > 0:13:13- You reckon? Yeah? - Falling into place, isn't it?

0:13:13 > 0:13:14- Let's do it.- All right.

0:13:22 > 0:13:25- Shall we walk down the aisle? - Shall we?- Have a practice.- Do it.

0:13:25 > 0:13:27I'll pretend to be your dad.

0:13:32 > 0:13:35- And you'd see everyone.- I know. And flowers.- Yeah.

0:13:35 > 0:13:39And then Luke would be looking like your mum is looking.

0:13:40 > 0:13:42I mean, this place is just stunning.

0:13:42 > 0:13:46This would be my perfect place to get married, it really would. But...

0:13:46 > 0:13:48Ideally, what we would love,

0:13:48 > 0:13:51or what I would love and Mum and Dad would love...

0:13:51 > 0:13:54This is ideal for Jessica. A church wedding.

0:13:54 > 0:13:57It would be everything that was always pictured for her,

0:13:57 > 0:13:59right from a little girl.

0:13:59 > 0:14:05She has always wanted to be able to walk up an aisle in a church.

0:14:05 > 0:14:08But who needs a church aisle when you've got an entire racetrack?

0:14:08 > 0:14:11Today, I just got that buzz of being at Donington.

0:14:11 > 0:14:13It's just somewhere that every time I come here, you know,

0:14:13 > 0:14:16whether it be for track day or whether it be to watch the racing,

0:14:16 > 0:14:18I just get that instant buzz from being here.

0:14:18 > 0:14:21And buzzing, the boys book catering

0:14:21 > 0:14:24and a spot on the track for four grand - a third of his budget.

0:14:24 > 0:14:27It looks like it could be game on.

0:14:27 > 0:14:28Nice one!

0:14:28 > 0:14:30So, having committed to the racetrack,

0:14:30 > 0:14:34Luke's decided that now might be a good time to actually plan

0:14:34 > 0:14:36the wedding, all over Jess's wall.

0:14:36 > 0:14:38This is the bit that we are going to get.

0:14:38 > 0:14:40Like the aisle, the seats and the podium?

0:14:40 > 0:14:43- Yeah.- Down here? On the track?- Yes.

0:14:43 > 0:14:45I think we should definitely do it on the track.

0:14:45 > 0:14:48- We've got to, haven't we?- Yeah. Marquee..

0:14:48 > 0:14:54I was thinking maybe the whole game reserve, type...theme.

0:14:54 > 0:14:57What are you thinking? Just some stuffed teddies, some lions.

0:14:57 > 0:14:59A giraffe. Personally, I think

0:14:59 > 0:15:04people might be confused by a superbikes safari kind of wedding.

0:15:04 > 0:15:10It doesn't really go. She comes into Donington we have like Harleys.

0:15:10 > 0:15:14She goes around there, all of these Harleys are coming around the loop.

0:15:14 > 0:15:17Jess will get out there.

0:15:17 > 0:15:21- That's where she can walk down the aisle. OK?- That's a plan.

0:15:21 > 0:15:23So, a procession of Harley-Davidsons,

0:15:23 > 0:15:26a safari-themed themed tent for his animal-loving bride

0:15:26 > 0:15:28and a ceremony on a racetrack.

0:15:28 > 0:15:29Standard.

0:15:29 > 0:15:31# Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang. #

0:15:34 > 0:15:37Unaware of Luke's racy plans,

0:15:37 > 0:15:41Jess's mum has her own dreams for her daughter's big day.

0:15:41 > 0:15:45I'd like to see you in a... I would, I suppose really,

0:15:45 > 0:15:49quite a traditional type of dress.

0:15:49 > 0:15:50I would love to see you in a veil,

0:15:50 > 0:15:55- but I know that might not be your idea.- I am not really sure.

0:15:55 > 0:16:00You'd not go for anything that is retro style.

0:16:00 > 0:16:04- Flowers and fairy lights... - Bunting and candles.

0:16:04 > 0:16:07I mean, that is beautiful, isn't it?

0:16:07 > 0:16:10With all the bunting hanging down, the lights, colourful lights

0:16:10 > 0:16:13- and stuff.- I mean Calke Abbey was absolutely...

0:16:13 > 0:16:15it's a beautiful, beautiful place.

0:16:15 > 0:16:17Isn't it? Absolutely stunning.

0:16:17 > 0:16:19Because I am quite creative, well, I think we are

0:16:19 > 0:16:22- quite creative together, aren't we? - Mm.

0:16:22 > 0:16:26- I think we could do absolute wonders with it.- Mm.

0:16:33 > 0:16:37It's the start of week two and the day that Luke is dreading.

0:16:37 > 0:16:38Dress shopping.

0:16:38 > 0:16:42He's brought his brother Ben and best man Ben to help him

0:16:42 > 0:16:46- find a dress for his superbikes ceremony.- Hello.- Hello, how are you?

0:16:46 > 0:16:50- All right, thank you. We've an appointment to view some dresses.- OK.

0:16:50 > 0:16:52He might know his Hondas from his Harleys,

0:16:52 > 0:16:58- but will he know his silk from his satin?- Look at this one. Wicked.

0:16:58 > 0:17:01It's not too blingy apart from the belt.

0:17:01 > 0:17:04- Which I presume you could chop off?- Chop it off?

0:17:04 > 0:17:08- Is that a technical term, Ben? - Need to check the size.

0:17:08 > 0:17:13It says 6 to 30 on it. I presume that is the size. Or is that the age?

0:17:16 > 0:17:19It is very curtain-like, isn't it?

0:17:20 > 0:17:24# Maybe I'm out of my mi-i-ind. #

0:17:25 > 0:17:30Unlike her groom, Jess is taking dress shopping very seriously.

0:17:30 > 0:17:32And she knows exactly what she wants.

0:17:32 > 0:17:36She's come to a designer boutique in Nottingham to show her mum

0:17:36 > 0:17:39and bridesmaids the dress she would choose if she had her say.

0:17:41 > 0:17:45Hi. You all right? Nice to see you.

0:17:45 > 0:17:49- You can have a look round here. - Yes, do have a look.- Thank you.

0:17:49 > 0:17:51ALL: Oh!

0:17:51 > 0:17:54- I don't like the flowers and stuff on that.- No?

0:17:54 > 0:17:57I really, really do not want a big, pouffy dress.

0:17:57 > 0:18:01I do want something that is really sleek, really very elegant,

0:18:01 > 0:18:04that's beautiful material, beautiful cut and fits really nicely.

0:18:04 > 0:18:09The one up there is absolutely amazing, like amazing, amazing!

0:18:09 > 0:18:10That one.

0:18:10 > 0:18:14And with her heart firmly set on one dream dress,

0:18:14 > 0:18:17it is time for Jess to reveal it to her loved ones.

0:18:17 > 0:18:19ALL: Ohh!

0:18:19 > 0:18:23- It's so delicate, so intricate. - Absolutely stunning.

0:18:23 > 0:18:28- It's beautiful, isn't it?- You actually look so small, like tiny.

0:18:28 > 0:18:33- That's really nice.- It's amazing, like absolutely amazing.

0:18:33 > 0:18:36What is it they always say? The first dress you try on.

0:18:36 > 0:18:40- It's the one you fall in love with. - It's absolutely incredible.

0:18:40 > 0:18:42I love this dress.

0:18:42 > 0:18:47# See beneath your beautiful Would you let me... #

0:18:47 > 0:18:51It's a good job I put waterproof mascara on, isn't it?

0:18:51 > 0:18:54- Beautiful. - Would someone give her a hug, please?

0:18:57 > 0:19:00Could imagine walking down the aisle on this. It's absolutely stunning.

0:19:00 > 0:19:05- It really would be amazing.- It'll be fine, whatever he chooses.

0:19:05 > 0:19:06It'll be fine.

0:19:07 > 0:19:09Well, it might not be.

0:19:09 > 0:19:11Ben might have joked about leather,

0:19:11 > 0:19:14but Luke isn't joking about this huge, pouffy number.

0:19:14 > 0:19:17- It looks good.- Yeah.- I do not think it's one million miles off at all.

0:19:17 > 0:19:19What's your plan for the day?

0:19:19 > 0:19:24- We've actually managed to get Donington Park racetrack.- Very good.

0:19:24 > 0:19:28- So, we're actually going to have a ceremony on the track.- OK.

0:19:28 > 0:19:32- Is she a racing fan?- No.- OK(!) Good luck with that one.

0:19:32 > 0:19:35Do you do a helmet that comes with that?

0:19:41 > 0:19:42I hope he is taking it seriously

0:19:42 > 0:19:45and doesn't sit there and go, "That will do."

0:19:45 > 0:19:47- I bet he doesn't even know dresses like that exist.- No.

0:19:47 > 0:19:48I don't think he would.

0:19:48 > 0:19:52I think he thinks wedding dress, white, traditional, go for something

0:19:52 > 0:19:54like that because that is what every bride wants,

0:19:54 > 0:19:57- but obviously it is not.- He wouldn't know that they were wedding dresses.

0:19:57 > 0:20:02- No.- You know, even though he's been living with her for eight years,

0:20:02 > 0:20:06you know, he could still get it terribly wrong.

0:20:08 > 0:20:11But it's a case of we have to wait and see.

0:20:22 > 0:20:25- That is the one, isn't it?- Yes. - I reckon so.

0:20:25 > 0:20:28Not sure it is the one Jess would choose,

0:20:28 > 0:20:31though, but with Luke splashing £800 on a full-skirted,

0:20:31 > 0:20:35Cinderella-style dress, it's the one she is going to get.

0:20:43 > 0:20:47Desperate for a break from bridal boutiques and dress shops, the lads

0:20:47 > 0:20:51have headed back to Donington Park for a Harley-Davidson bike rally.

0:20:52 > 0:20:54But it is not just for pleasure.

0:20:54 > 0:20:57They're hoping to recruit some leather-clad bikers to escort

0:20:57 > 0:20:58Jess to the wedding.

0:20:58 > 0:21:03We're just on our way to find a dude called Roy who runs the show.

0:21:03 > 0:21:06He makes all the decisions round here, apparently,

0:21:06 > 0:21:08so we will see if we can find him. Hopefully, he's a name badge on.

0:21:08 > 0:21:11Is this him? Roy?

0:21:11 > 0:21:15- Hi, how are you doing? Name's Luke.- Nice to meet you.- I'm Ben.

0:21:15 > 0:21:18Nice to meet you too. What can I do for you?

0:21:18 > 0:21:22- We've heard you're the man to speak to...- Regarding...- We're after

0:21:22 > 0:21:27- trying to get some Harleys involved in a wedding.- Right.

0:21:27 > 0:21:30- What's the actual plan? We know you're getting married.- Yes.

0:21:30 > 0:21:34We're getting married on the loop on the circuit itself.

0:21:34 > 0:21:36- On the actual race circuit?- Yes.

0:21:36 > 0:21:39I have never heard of anyone actually getting married on that.

0:21:39 > 0:21:43Yeah, well, I want to start the whole wedding with really

0:21:43 > 0:21:47- a life's obsession with Harleys.- Coming from Derby?

0:21:47 > 0:21:49- Coming from Derby. - She'll be picked up in Derby.

0:21:49 > 0:21:53What I can do is ask around and see what we can come up with.

0:21:53 > 0:21:55See if we can help you in some way.

0:21:59 > 0:22:02Had a look around and seen a few bikes and spoke to a few of the

0:22:02 > 0:22:06- guys here.- Everybody has loved the idea of the day, I think.

0:22:06 > 0:22:10I think they will probably enjoy the day more than Jess might do!

0:22:10 > 0:22:12Hey, you can't please everyone.

0:22:16 > 0:22:18Unaware of her groom's petrol-powered plans,

0:22:18 > 0:22:21Jess is out with her bridesmaids who are keen to find out how

0:22:21 > 0:22:24she is coping with not being in the driving seat.

0:22:24 > 0:22:26How have you been feeling this past week?

0:22:26 > 0:22:27All right. I miss him a lot now.

0:22:27 > 0:22:29I think mainly over the last couple of days

0:22:29 > 0:22:31I have really noticed that I miss him a lot.

0:22:31 > 0:22:34- Jess is too calm for my liking. - Yeah, too calm for my liking.

0:22:34 > 0:22:37- I feel more stressed than you do. - But I don't know why

0:22:37 > 0:22:40- everyone thinks I am going to have a meltdown.- You are at some point!

0:22:40 > 0:22:42- I am not.- I can read you like a book.

0:22:42 > 0:22:45But best man Ben is about to deliver some news that might

0:22:45 > 0:22:47get Jess in a flap.

0:22:47 > 0:22:50- Hello, ladies.- Hi.

0:22:50 > 0:22:53- I am here to talk to you about the hen do.- OK.

0:22:53 > 0:22:57You are going to need your overnight bags. It's an early start. 7:30 AM.

0:22:57 > 0:23:01- What?- You're not going to be ready. You're not going to be ready.

0:23:01 > 0:23:04I am not going to be ready.

0:23:04 > 0:23:06Not only do you have to be ready at 7:30,

0:23:06 > 0:23:08you must be dressed to impress.

0:23:08 > 0:23:10That early in the morning?

0:23:10 > 0:23:12Apart from you obviously, Jess, because it's your hen do,

0:23:12 > 0:23:16it does cost £53 each for everything we've put on.

0:23:18 > 0:23:25- Conditional, Jess. You do have to wear the flashing sash.- Yes.- Enjoy.

0:23:25 > 0:23:30- Take care.- Bye!- See you later. - Wow!

0:23:30 > 0:23:34We need to be ready at 7:30 which I'm sure that Luke completely

0:23:34 > 0:23:38understands that is a nightmare for me, especially all my friends.

0:23:38 > 0:23:40But I am sure they have got something good planned

0:23:40 > 0:23:43otherwise they wouldn't have us up ridiculously early.

0:23:43 > 0:23:45ALL: Chin-chin! Cheers.

0:23:51 > 0:23:52It's the morning of the hen

0:23:52 > 0:23:57- and the girls have a very early 7:30am start.- Hello, love!

0:23:57 > 0:24:01Thank you for coming. I still do not know what we are doing.

0:24:01 > 0:24:02But at least Luke's been

0:24:02 > 0:24:05thoughtful enough to text through some instructions.

0:24:08 > 0:24:12"Travel in convoy. The car in front will have directions.

0:24:12 > 0:24:15"Have a great hen do. Love, Luke!" Ahhh!

0:24:15 > 0:24:19So, with the lead car following instructions to an unknown

0:24:19 > 0:24:21destination, the girls set off.

0:24:25 > 0:24:28The hen do is the first chance for Luke to show Jess just how

0:24:28 > 0:24:32well he knows her. And this bride has got high expectations.

0:24:32 > 0:24:35So, ideal for me would be something that'd be outdoors,

0:24:35 > 0:24:38maybe something a bit mooching round,

0:24:38 > 0:24:41- a little bit of shopping in the day...- Ladies that lunch.

0:24:41 > 0:24:46- Ladies that lunch.- I think we are going to the horse races.- Do you?

0:24:46 > 0:24:50- That's what I think as well.- I might need to change my shoes, then.

0:24:50 > 0:24:54I don't know what dress to impress would mean otherwise.

0:24:54 > 0:24:57- I don't either.- Or this could all be a bit of a nasty joke!

0:25:00 > 0:25:03Surely he wouldn't do that? Would he?

0:25:05 > 0:25:0945 minutes in and animal-loving Jess smells a rat.

0:25:09 > 0:25:10We're going to the zoo.

0:25:13 > 0:25:15There's nobody else dressed like we are.

0:25:15 > 0:25:19Why have they told us to dress to impress when we're coming to the zoo?

0:25:19 > 0:25:21I am just glad I did not put a dress on!

0:25:23 > 0:25:25We're at the zoo.

0:25:25 > 0:25:27In stupid shoes.

0:25:28 > 0:25:31Well, I do look after animals every day,

0:25:31 > 0:25:35so I kind of get why he's done it, but I look after animals every day!

0:25:35 > 0:25:40And it turns out today is going to be no different.

0:25:44 > 0:25:47- Hi!- You're looking very lovely. - ALL: Yes.

0:25:47 > 0:25:50- Don't know what you're doing today, do you?- ALL: NO!

0:25:50 > 0:25:54- You're going to be zookeepers for the day.- Oh, no!

0:25:55 > 0:26:00- We are going to be dealing with poo.- What!- Smelly food.

0:26:00 > 0:26:05Sorry, message that we got was be ready at 7:30am dressed to impress.

0:26:05 > 0:26:09Ohhhh!

0:26:09 > 0:26:12I have got nothing to do with this!

0:26:12 > 0:26:14Really cruel.

0:26:14 > 0:26:17- It's a little bit, isn't it?- Really cruel. I wouldn't have done that.

0:26:17 > 0:26:20- Are you all ready?- ALL: Yes!

0:26:20 > 0:26:22Excellent. I decided to dress to impress also!

0:26:22 > 0:26:26# Take that money, watch it burn... #

0:26:27 > 0:26:30While the girls prepare to get down and dirty,

0:26:30 > 0:26:33the lads have arrived for a posh day at the races.

0:26:33 > 0:26:36Tanked up, a few beers. Took some bets on.

0:26:36 > 0:26:40# Take that money, watch it burn Sink in the river... #

0:26:40 > 0:26:42Very cushty day so far.

0:26:42 > 0:26:44# ..That kills me

0:26:44 > 0:26:47# Makes me feel alive

0:26:47 > 0:26:50# Lately I've been I've been losing sleep

0:26:50 > 0:26:54# Dreamin' about the things that we could be

0:26:54 > 0:26:57# Sink in the river... #

0:26:57 > 0:26:59Having a great day, obviously.

0:26:59 > 0:27:02Opposite end of the spectrum for Jess, hopefully,

0:27:02 > 0:27:04cleaning some animals out.

0:27:08 > 0:27:11Wasn't expecting to be shovelling poo on my hen do

0:27:11 > 0:27:14but he's going to be picking up dog poo for the rest of his life now.

0:27:14 > 0:27:15Look to the floor!

0:27:17 > 0:27:21- Oh, this is horrible. - It's pretty gross.

0:27:21 > 0:27:24There had better be some wine at the end of it, that's all I can say.

0:27:28 > 0:27:32- I need a baby wipe. - I have got it on my fingers.

0:27:32 > 0:27:34So, still dressed to impress,

0:27:34 > 0:27:37the girls now have giraffe poo under their nails.

0:27:37 > 0:27:40Meanwhile, Luke has hit a winning streak.

0:27:40 > 0:27:42Last race, look at that.

0:27:42 > 0:27:44Clawed it back.

0:27:44 > 0:27:46Lucky Luke.

0:27:46 > 0:27:5120, 40, 60, 80, 100, 120, 130, sir. Thank you.

0:27:51 > 0:27:53- All the best, thank you. - Cheers, mate.

0:27:53 > 0:27:59Luke just had one bet on a horse. And won. Typical Luke.

0:27:59 > 0:28:00130 quid in.

0:28:00 > 0:28:03Wouldn't be fair to put that in the wedding budget, would it?

0:28:03 > 0:28:06I think we can we can find somewhere else for that to go tonight.

0:28:08 > 0:28:13After a hard day's graft, the girls have had a hotel laid on for them.

0:28:13 > 0:28:15Well, laid on in the sense that they have to pay for it.

0:28:15 > 0:28:21"The total to pay is £847, split between you. Jess has been paid for.

0:28:21 > 0:28:26- "Have a good night. Luke."- Bit different, innit?- Slightly(!)

0:28:26 > 0:28:30- It's £10 more than we thought it was going to be.- It's 13 quid more.

0:28:30 > 0:28:31£13 more.

0:28:31 > 0:28:33So, on top of the £53 they've already paid,

0:28:33 > 0:28:37the girls dig deep to cover another £13 each.

0:28:39 > 0:28:42Lucky Luke, however, has his winnings to spend.

0:28:42 > 0:28:44MUSIC: "Lost Generation" by Rizzle Kicks

0:28:53 > 0:28:56Everyone is having a good time, which is ultimately what I want.

0:28:56 > 0:28:58I think from a day perspective,

0:28:58 > 0:29:00Jess has probably had a slightly different day to us,

0:29:00 > 0:29:03but she likes that sort of thing. We've all had a good time

0:29:03 > 0:29:05and hopefully she's doing more of the same tonight.

0:29:05 > 0:29:08And in an attempt to give the girls a good time, Luke's

0:29:08 > 0:29:11sent them all to a swanky bar.

0:29:11 > 0:29:12So swanky, in fact, that

0:29:12 > 0:29:14the money he's put behind it

0:29:14 > 0:29:16won't even cover one round of drinks.

0:29:16 > 0:29:19Looks like the girls are paying...again.

0:29:19 > 0:29:20Oh, God. This place is a bit pricey.

0:29:20 > 0:29:23With the budget we had of only £100,

0:29:23 > 0:29:25and there's 17 of us.

0:29:25 > 0:29:29It didn't really go very far as getting everybody a first drink.

0:29:29 > 0:29:33We didn't think we were going to be spending this much money.

0:29:40 > 0:29:41It's the morning after

0:29:41 > 0:29:44and a slightly delicate Luke's arrived at his parents' house

0:29:44 > 0:29:47to share his venue plans with his dad.

0:29:47 > 0:29:49Hello, Dad.

0:29:49 > 0:29:52- Hey up, Luke.- All right? - How's it going?- All right.

0:29:52 > 0:29:54Good.

0:29:54 > 0:29:57Yeah, we've got some plans now, Dad.

0:29:57 > 0:29:58Go on, then, tell us.

0:29:58 > 0:30:01Well...we've got Donington.

0:30:01 > 0:30:02Flippin' heck!

0:30:02 > 0:30:05Guess where we're having it, the ceremony.

0:30:05 > 0:30:06- Go on, then.- Have a guess.

0:30:06 > 0:30:10I don't know. In one of the executive boxes, or...?

0:30:10 > 0:30:12No. On the Melbourne Loop.

0:30:12 > 0:30:14HE LAUGHS

0:30:15 > 0:30:18Actually on the circuit?

0:30:18 > 0:30:20So we're going to have the ceremony

0:30:20 > 0:30:22on the track, right at the bottom of the loop,

0:30:22 > 0:30:26and then you have all the run-off, so we'll put a marquee up there.

0:30:26 > 0:30:28Flippin' heck, it'll take some organising, a marquee.

0:30:28 > 0:30:31- We've got one.- Have you?!

0:30:31 > 0:30:33Yeah, got a marquee.

0:30:33 > 0:30:35What about the catering and all that stuff?

0:30:35 > 0:30:37We could have a bit of refreshment, couldn't we?

0:30:37 > 0:30:38Oh, yeah, there'll be drinks.

0:30:38 > 0:30:40- Well, that's it, then. - There'll be a bar.

0:30:40 > 0:30:42That'll do, won't it?

0:30:42 > 0:30:46I think it's superb, absolutely brilliant.

0:30:46 > 0:30:48The whole family's into bikes, really.

0:30:48 > 0:30:50So it'll be spot-on. Can't think of anything better.

0:30:56 > 0:30:59With Jess's dress already in the bag,

0:30:59 > 0:31:01Luke and the two Bens

0:31:01 > 0:31:04have come down to pick out the bridesmaids' dresses.

0:31:04 > 0:31:05Oh, feathers!

0:31:05 > 0:31:09But with eight bridesmaids to dress,

0:31:09 > 0:31:12Luke's come up with a cunning plan.

0:31:12 > 0:31:15I put £38 in each,

0:31:15 > 0:31:16and they'll have to foot the rest.

0:31:16 > 0:31:20OK. That's very generous of you, Luke.

0:31:20 > 0:31:22- What about that pale pink?- Snazzy.

0:31:22 > 0:31:24Yeah, 220 quid.

0:31:24 > 0:31:25Is it?!

0:31:25 > 0:31:28And with his plan in place to make the bridesmaids pay

0:31:28 > 0:31:31the lion's share,

0:31:31 > 0:31:34Luke's focused on getting the job done.

0:31:36 > 0:31:37Do it for 120?

0:31:42 > 0:31:44120, so only 80 for them to pay.

0:31:44 > 0:31:47Yeah, 80 for them. It's reasonable!

0:31:47 > 0:31:52Sure they'll be more than happy to fork out for more stuff, Luke(!)

0:31:54 > 0:31:57It's time to see what the girls make of the dresses...

0:31:57 > 0:31:59See what you think.

0:32:00 > 0:32:02..and the price.

0:32:04 > 0:32:06But you're paying all of it?

0:32:06 > 0:32:09Erm, they'll do us a deal on it.

0:32:09 > 0:32:12With all the alterations and everything, it's going to be

0:32:12 > 0:32:15120.

0:32:19 > 0:32:22Less 38, then.

0:32:22 > 0:32:24Well, yeah. It'll be, like, 80.

0:32:24 > 0:32:27I'm not trying to be difficult, I just don't have £80.

0:32:27 > 0:32:30I haven't got £80, I haven't got 80 quid.

0:32:32 > 0:32:35(We're going to do a mutiny and say none of us can be bridesmaids.)

0:32:35 > 0:32:37I've put more in for their dresses

0:32:37 > 0:32:40than I've put in for the lads' suits.

0:32:40 > 0:32:43We've had to pay more ourselves.

0:32:43 > 0:32:46It's not like we've been over-subsidised,

0:32:46 > 0:32:47it's that she's got so many.

0:32:47 > 0:32:49That was her call.

0:32:53 > 0:32:57We're thinking if we say none of us are going to be bridesmaid,

0:32:57 > 0:33:00it might pull at Luke's little heartstrings

0:33:00 > 0:33:03and he'll cough up the cash.

0:33:03 > 0:33:08It's looking like either there's going to be no bridesmaids,

0:33:08 > 0:33:10or we half-and-half, or we pay 50 and you guys somehow make up

0:33:10 > 0:33:13the difference.

0:33:13 > 0:33:14There's no "somehow" about it.

0:33:14 > 0:33:17You need to have this conversation with Jess.

0:33:17 > 0:33:20But how can we? She'll be in bits!

0:33:20 > 0:33:22She'll be mortified!

0:33:22 > 0:33:25How can you say you're happy to put money in and now you've decided no?

0:33:25 > 0:33:28Cos we didn't quite know we'd be forking out 80 quid.

0:33:28 > 0:33:30I'd love to pay for them all.

0:33:30 > 0:33:33I'd love that dress to be 50 quid, but it's not.

0:33:33 > 0:33:37- This is the situation that I'm in. - You're such a drama queen!

0:33:37 > 0:33:39A drama queen?!

0:33:39 > 0:33:41We're not paying more than 50 quid.

0:33:41 > 0:33:43We're not budging on it.

0:33:43 > 0:33:45He will cough that money up.

0:33:45 > 0:33:49I wouldn't be so sure, girls.

0:33:50 > 0:33:53If I pay for them dresses, what will that come to - 900 quid?

0:33:53 > 0:33:55That'd be more than Jess's dress,

0:33:55 > 0:33:58so if they think their dresses justify spending more

0:33:58 > 0:34:02on their dresses than hers...

0:34:02 > 0:34:04I think they need to have a good look at themselves.

0:34:04 > 0:34:07It's up to you, mate, if you want to pay for it out your own pocket,

0:34:07 > 0:34:09but we're paying for enough as it is.

0:34:09 > 0:34:10You have to make a decision.

0:34:10 > 0:34:12You have to make one as well.

0:34:12 > 0:34:13I've already made it, it's up to you lot.

0:34:13 > 0:34:15And with that,

0:34:15 > 0:34:17Luke disappears.

0:34:20 > 0:34:22Right.

0:34:22 > 0:34:25So it's £80 or no bridesmaids' dresses, girls.

0:34:25 > 0:34:28...fuckin' head in for that.

0:34:29 > 0:34:31Job well done.

0:34:31 > 0:34:34We haven't got a choice. We can't not pay it

0:34:34 > 0:34:36because Jess wants her bridesmaids. If we don't pay it,

0:34:36 > 0:34:38we have no dress, and he's gone.

0:34:38 > 0:34:41So, for the sake of their friend,

0:34:41 > 0:34:43the girls dig deep once again.

0:34:45 > 0:34:50Next day, Jess drops back to see bridesmaid Rosie for a catch-up.

0:34:50 > 0:34:52And it's not long before the cat's out the bag

0:34:52 > 0:34:55about that row over the bridesmaid dresses.

0:34:55 > 0:34:57He wasn't very nice last night.

0:34:57 > 0:34:59Why wasn't he very nice?

0:34:59 > 0:35:02Basically, we've all had to fork out...again.

0:35:02 > 0:35:04And there was just no budging.

0:35:04 > 0:35:06No budging from who, though?

0:35:06 > 0:35:07- Him.- That's not on.

0:35:07 > 0:35:10It's not fair to all of you guys,

0:35:10 > 0:35:12especially considering what you've all put up with so far.

0:35:12 > 0:35:16How dare he seem like he doesn't care about you!

0:35:16 > 0:35:18When guys are together...

0:35:18 > 0:35:21But Luke's burnt his bridges once with you lot,

0:35:21 > 0:35:23- when he upset me four years ago. - Exactly.

0:35:23 > 0:35:24And it's taken him a long time

0:35:24 > 0:35:27to build that trust back with you guys...

0:35:27 > 0:35:29I think he went in the mindset of,

0:35:29 > 0:35:32"The only way I'll beat these eight girls is

0:35:32 > 0:35:34"if I don't budge and I'm dead firm with it."

0:35:34 > 0:35:36But he's upset you all!

0:35:36 > 0:35:38In the process, he's not been very nice about it

0:35:38 > 0:35:39and that was the worst thing.

0:35:39 > 0:35:41But now if he puts me in a situation

0:35:41 > 0:35:43where I don't like my dress

0:35:43 > 0:35:46and he's upset you guys the way he has and not thought

0:35:46 > 0:35:48about what he's saying, or how he's saying it...

0:35:48 > 0:35:51Imagine if he's not took as much care in your dress,

0:35:51 > 0:35:54I think he's not that bothered about the bridesmaid dresses.

0:35:54 > 0:35:58I'm sure he would have thought about your dress.

0:35:58 > 0:36:00Mm.

0:36:04 > 0:36:07With their bike-racing theme taking pole position

0:36:07 > 0:36:10in Luke's plans, he can't think of anything better

0:36:10 > 0:36:12than getting married on a winner's podium,

0:36:12 > 0:36:14so he's off to meet joiner pal, Rich,

0:36:14 > 0:36:16to try and blag a favour.

0:36:16 > 0:36:19How would you feel about building

0:36:19 > 0:36:21a podium...

0:36:22 > 0:36:24- ..for me?- I think we could do that, mate.

0:36:24 > 0:36:27Right, so the vision is,

0:36:27 > 0:36:29you have a standard podium,

0:36:29 > 0:36:31three boxes. Do you reckon we could

0:36:31 > 0:36:33- do something a bit different to that?- Right.

0:36:33 > 0:36:35- It's probably easier if I draw it out.- Yeah.

0:36:35 > 0:36:37What do you think?

0:36:37 > 0:36:39The shape isn't a problem,

0:36:39 > 0:36:41it's framing

0:36:41 > 0:36:43all round and then bordered.

0:36:43 > 0:36:44What do you reckon?

0:36:44 > 0:36:46It can be done.

0:36:46 > 0:36:48- Sure you have enough time?- No.

0:36:48 > 0:36:50THEY LAUGH

0:36:50 > 0:36:51Time might not be the only issue.

0:36:51 > 0:36:54How will he feel when Luke asks for it for free?

0:36:54 > 0:36:57Now, I'll need a massive favour off you.

0:36:57 > 0:37:00I might not have any budget.

0:37:00 > 0:37:03You might not have ANY budget?!

0:37:03 > 0:37:06Would you....?

0:37:06 > 0:37:08Being as I've given you loads of jobs at my house...

0:37:08 > 0:37:13- I think I could manage that for you. - Do you reckon?- No problem, mate.

0:37:13 > 0:37:15I will definitely slip you in an invite, all-day.

0:37:15 > 0:37:18HE LAUGHS

0:37:18 > 0:37:21No problem, mate, I can do that for you.

0:37:21 > 0:37:24So you can stand and admire your handiwork.

0:37:24 > 0:37:26All right, just hope it don't collapse, eh?

0:37:26 > 0:37:27THEY LAUGH

0:37:27 > 0:37:29No pressure(!)

0:37:37 > 0:37:40With news of the bridesmaid shop playing on her mind,

0:37:40 > 0:37:42Jess has taken some time out for a much-needed

0:37:42 > 0:37:44pamper session.

0:37:46 > 0:37:49People keep saying, "Do you know when it's going to be?"

0:37:49 > 0:37:52I'm like, "I don't know. Stop asking!"

0:37:52 > 0:37:55Not until he decides to give you an invite to your own wedding,

0:37:55 > 0:37:58which would be quite nice at some point soon!

0:37:58 > 0:38:01I'm nervous about my dress, my dress is tomorrow.

0:38:01 > 0:38:04I think if the dress stands up on its own,

0:38:04 > 0:38:06if it's that big...

0:38:06 > 0:38:07A big meringue.

0:38:07 > 0:38:09Yeah, like, massive. I would just be like,

0:38:09 > 0:38:11"No, I'll look like a toilet-roll holder."

0:38:14 > 0:38:17Just when she'd almost given up hope,

0:38:17 > 0:38:19Luke's brother Ben is about to surprise her

0:38:19 > 0:38:21with a little help from Jake.

0:38:26 > 0:38:29What is he doing here?

0:38:29 > 0:38:30Who is it?

0:38:30 > 0:38:32SHE LAUGHS

0:38:32 > 0:38:33It's Ben!

0:38:33 > 0:38:35His brother Ben.

0:38:35 > 0:38:36Oh, no!

0:38:36 > 0:38:37THEY LAUGH

0:38:37 > 0:38:40BOTH: Ooh!

0:38:46 > 0:38:49So, so, so worried.

0:38:51 > 0:38:53You all right, Jake?

0:38:56 > 0:39:00There's something attached to you. Am I allowed to take it?

0:39:00 > 0:39:01That's for you to take away.

0:39:01 > 0:39:03Oh!

0:39:03 > 0:39:06Ah! Got an invite!

0:39:06 > 0:39:08See you.

0:39:10 > 0:39:12Little bit pushing it when it's Wednesday

0:39:12 > 0:39:14and the invite's for Friday.

0:39:14 > 0:39:17I'm increasingly nervous.

0:39:17 > 0:39:19I've been absolutely fine up until last night

0:39:19 > 0:39:21and then I've stopped sleeping properly.

0:39:24 > 0:39:26And Jess isn't the only one with a surprise in store.

0:39:26 > 0:39:29Luke's been called down to Donington

0:39:29 > 0:39:31where racing legend Ron Haslam

0:39:31 > 0:39:32has heard about his plans.

0:39:38 > 0:39:40- Hi, Ron.- Pleased to meet you. - Good to meet you, mate.

0:39:40 > 0:39:42If we can do something on Friday,

0:39:42 > 0:39:44what ideas have you got?

0:39:44 > 0:39:46We've got a procession of bikes and stuff,

0:39:46 > 0:39:48they'll come over in the car.

0:39:48 > 0:39:52I thought it would be nice if there was a few of the Hondas parked...

0:39:52 > 0:39:54I would have liked to do something for her

0:39:54 > 0:39:55but it's a little difficult.

0:39:55 > 0:39:57She's in this lovely dress...

0:39:57 > 0:39:59We'll get some bikes round.

0:39:59 > 0:40:02- No problem.- Would you like to have a lap round the circuit,

0:40:02 > 0:40:04seeing you picked this for your wedding?

0:40:04 > 0:40:06Wow! This has took me by surprise.

0:40:06 > 0:40:07On the back of Ron?

0:40:07 > 0:40:09Pillion on the back?

0:40:09 > 0:40:10- Perfect.- Wow!

0:40:11 > 0:40:14I was not expecting this when I turned up.

0:40:14 > 0:40:15This is incredible.

0:40:19 > 0:40:20Ready for go, mate.

0:40:20 > 0:40:22So a free ride with your hero

0:40:22 > 0:40:25and some bikes donated to decorate the ceremony.

0:40:25 > 0:40:27Lucky Luke strikes again.

0:40:31 > 0:40:32That's incredible!

0:40:32 > 0:40:34Incredible!

0:40:34 > 0:40:36God, I'm on cloud nine now.

0:40:37 > 0:40:39Let's hope it's not one big dream.

0:40:48 > 0:40:50It's the day before the wedding

0:40:50 > 0:40:54and Jess is about to discover if her dream of a vintage, beaded gown

0:40:54 > 0:40:56has become a reality.

0:40:56 > 0:40:57If I hate it

0:40:57 > 0:41:00and I think I'm going to display some animosity towards him,

0:41:00 > 0:41:02that's the last thing I want

0:41:02 > 0:41:05on a day that's meant to be the most-special day we've had yet.

0:41:05 > 0:41:09I just want the dress to be everything that Jessica hopes

0:41:09 > 0:41:11it will be.

0:41:11 > 0:41:14But with Luke prioritising princess over period detailing,

0:41:14 > 0:41:16things aren't looking too promising.

0:41:16 > 0:41:20- Do you want to come through and see your dress?- Yes, thank you.

0:41:32 > 0:41:34Are you ready to see your dress?

0:41:34 > 0:41:36Oh, my God, it looks big!

0:41:36 > 0:41:39Oh, no!

0:41:39 > 0:41:40Oh, God!

0:41:59 > 0:42:00SHE CRIES

0:42:00 > 0:42:03I promised I wasn't going to do this for a bloody dress!

0:42:05 > 0:42:07He's doing so well!

0:42:07 > 0:42:09Just don't cry!

0:42:10 > 0:42:13My hon's done so well!

0:42:13 > 0:42:15THEY CHEER

0:42:17 > 0:42:21That's better than anything I could have chosen myself.

0:42:21 > 0:42:24Stop weeping and put it on!

0:42:30 > 0:42:33- THEY GASP - Oh, Jess!

0:42:34 > 0:42:35It's amazing!

0:42:35 > 0:42:37- Gosh, it's beautiful.- Wow!

0:42:39 > 0:42:41- He did well.- Did well.- Did well.

0:42:41 > 0:42:43Oh, my God.

0:42:43 > 0:42:47I love the dress. It's absolute stunning.

0:42:47 > 0:42:49Three blokes choosing my wedding dress

0:42:49 > 0:42:51and they end up with something that beautiful.

0:42:51 > 0:42:55- It's just unbelievable.- Oh, my God!

0:42:55 > 0:42:56I want to see what else he's done

0:42:56 > 0:42:59because he's obviously thought about you.

0:42:59 > 0:43:01Unbelievably, lucky Luke has managed to pick a dress

0:43:01 > 0:43:06that ticks none of Jess's boxes but is still somehow perfect.

0:43:06 > 0:43:10- I can't believe this.- You look so lovely. I'm so, so pleased.

0:43:10 > 0:43:13I'm glad you're pleased.

0:43:14 > 0:43:16This is like a wedding dress.

0:43:16 > 0:43:19He's gone very traditional with the dress and, actually,

0:43:19 > 0:43:21what is going to look fabulous

0:43:21 > 0:43:23on the one day that you wear a wedding dress,

0:43:23 > 0:43:25is something that is traditional.

0:43:26 > 0:43:29Luke's vision of a perfect wedding involves bikes,

0:43:29 > 0:43:30a racetrack and more bikes.

0:43:30 > 0:43:33But knowing how much Jess loves animals,

0:43:33 > 0:43:37he's keen to keep the claws at bay with something she'll like.

0:43:37 > 0:43:39And he has the ideal plan -

0:43:39 > 0:43:42picking up where he left off with the zoo trip

0:43:42 > 0:43:45and taking his marquee to the wild side.

0:43:45 > 0:43:49We'll put some animal props in and some big trees and stuff,

0:43:49 > 0:43:53and just make it kind of that more wild sort of natural feel to it.

0:44:00 > 0:44:02With less than 24 hours until her big day,

0:44:02 > 0:44:04Jess is taking time to reminisce with her parents

0:44:04 > 0:44:07about their wedding more than 30 years ago.

0:44:07 > 0:44:09Have you seen this one of you and grandad?

0:44:09 > 0:44:10Mmm...

0:44:12 > 0:44:14- That was a long time ago.- It was.

0:44:14 > 0:44:18- Oh, that was when he was giving you a way to me, dear.- It was. Yes.

0:44:18 > 0:44:20Look at your dad. He was so slim.

0:44:20 > 0:44:23DAD LAUGHS

0:44:23 > 0:44:25Is that all she can say?!

0:44:25 > 0:44:27And all that hair.

0:44:27 > 0:44:29I've still got some.

0:44:29 > 0:44:32Yeah, not a dark though. You're a silver fox now, aren't you?

0:44:32 > 0:44:34Yeah.

0:44:34 > 0:44:37- Where did you get ready? - Where did I get ready?

0:44:37 > 0:44:41At home with my mum and dad. Yeah. And we went from there.

0:44:41 > 0:44:44I think we'd been out the night before, but steady.

0:44:44 > 0:44:46Yeah, yeah, I know YOUR steady.

0:44:46 > 0:44:48We had...

0:44:48 > 0:44:50Just think, this time tomorrow night...

0:44:50 > 0:44:53- The reality is kicking in now. - ..I'll be related to Tommo.

0:44:53 > 0:44:56Yes, I'll be the awful mother-in-law, won't I?

0:44:56 > 0:44:59I don't think there's much awful about you as a mother-in-law.

0:45:01 > 0:45:03With time running out,

0:45:03 > 0:45:05Luke's still at Donington, cracking on with

0:45:05 > 0:45:07the wedding preparations.

0:45:07 > 0:45:09Fortunately, his podium has arrived.

0:45:09 > 0:45:13Less fortunately, it still needs putting together painting.

0:45:13 > 0:45:16Doesn't even fit in the van, that's how big it is.

0:45:18 > 0:45:20It should be over there somewhere.

0:45:21 > 0:45:24I've got to go home and sort my speech out.

0:45:24 > 0:45:29ROLLING STONES: # Hold on

0:45:32 > 0:45:38- # Yeah, you got to hold on...- #

0:45:46 > 0:45:48Hello!

0:45:48 > 0:45:50Are you all right?

0:45:50 > 0:45:52It's the morning of the wedding,

0:45:52 > 0:45:54and things have got off to a good start

0:45:54 > 0:45:58with a trip to the salon for Jess and her bridesmaids.

0:45:58 > 0:46:01He had the broach eight lovely ladies

0:46:01 > 0:46:04with their bridesmaid dresses.

0:46:04 > 0:46:07- Yeah, that didn't get go down well, did it, girls?- No, no.

0:46:11 > 0:46:13And, true to form, once again,

0:46:13 > 0:46:18Luke's only allocated enough money to pay for Jess.

0:46:18 > 0:46:21- There you go.- Thank you. - There you go.- Thank you.

0:46:21 > 0:46:24Yeah, we've had to pay for everything.

0:46:24 > 0:46:26Let's face it. We paid for the dress, the hen do,

0:46:26 > 0:46:29the hotel, our hair

0:46:29 > 0:46:32but at least he's managed to organise it and we are

0:46:32 > 0:46:35all here and we are all together which is what Jess wanted.

0:46:36 > 0:46:39But it seems Luke might have overlooked one other

0:46:39 > 0:46:43important detail regarding the bridesmaids.

0:46:43 > 0:46:46- By the way, how are the bridesmaids getting here?- On foot.

0:46:46 > 0:46:47GUFFAWS

0:46:47 > 0:46:49That might have been an issue.

0:46:49 > 0:46:52I don't think we'll foot the bridesmaids a taxi.

0:46:52 > 0:46:54I meant to ask you the other day, how the bridesmaids

0:46:54 > 0:46:55- are getting here.- Yeah. I thought...

0:46:55 > 0:46:58Well, maybe I did and you were just like, "I'm not bothered.

0:46:58 > 0:47:02- "Sort themselves out." - I'll ask them to book us a taxi.

0:47:02 > 0:47:04Better late than never.

0:47:06 > 0:47:07Back at home,

0:47:07 > 0:47:10the bridesmaids are ready to reveal those controversial pricey dresses.

0:47:10 > 0:47:13Ah, ha-ha ha...

0:47:13 > 0:47:15you look lovely.

0:47:15 > 0:47:16Yay, everyone together.

0:47:16 > 0:47:19But when it comes to putting her own dress on,

0:47:19 > 0:47:21there's a bit of problem

0:47:25 > 0:47:28- It's just bursting open. - It's not fitting.

0:47:29 > 0:47:32I bet if you take your bra off, it will help.

0:47:32 > 0:47:35- Yeah, but it's not going to help here.- No.- I can't breathe.

0:47:35 > 0:47:37I'm not going to be able to sit down.

0:47:37 > 0:47:40With only enough time for one fitting,

0:47:40 > 0:47:43Jess's perfect dress is not a perfect fit.

0:47:43 > 0:47:46What we'll have to do when you get in the car, we'll unzip it.

0:47:46 > 0:47:48It's going to have to be open until you get there.

0:47:48 > 0:47:50When you get out, we'll zip it up

0:47:50 > 0:47:53and we'll have to go straight to wherever we're going, OK?

0:47:53 > 0:47:57And when you sit down for your meal, we'll unzip it.

0:47:57 > 0:47:59- OK? It's not a problem.- All right.

0:47:59 > 0:48:02But you'll have to take your bra off.

0:48:02 > 0:48:04Jess, it's that padded, the dress, that it

0:48:04 > 0:48:07- won't make that much difference with your bra off.- OK.

0:48:07 > 0:48:08- All right?- Yes.

0:48:10 > 0:48:11It's not a great start for Jess.

0:48:11 > 0:48:13But holding back the tears,

0:48:13 > 0:48:16it's time to show the dress to her friends and family.

0:48:21 > 0:48:23- Oh, my God.- Oh, my God.

0:48:23 > 0:48:25Beautiful.

0:48:25 > 0:48:28You look lovely too. I'm very proud of you.

0:48:30 > 0:48:31Gorgeous.

0:48:33 > 0:48:36HAPPY CHATTER

0:48:38 > 0:48:40- Well done. Well done, Luke. - Don't stand on it, anyone.

0:48:40 > 0:48:42My little princess looks a princess.

0:48:42 > 0:48:44INAUDIBLE CONVERSATION

0:48:47 > 0:48:48# Let's go! #

0:48:48 > 0:48:52Luke's guests are beginning to arrive.

0:48:52 > 0:48:55And with the final touches to his theme in place,

0:48:55 > 0:48:58he is starting to feel the pressure.

0:48:58 > 0:49:01You guys seem pretty calm but I'm starting to get a bit nervous now.

0:49:01 > 0:49:04It's time for the bridesmaids and Jess's mum to leave,

0:49:04 > 0:49:06but Luke's last-minute taxi

0:49:06 > 0:49:08doesn't have enough seats for the bride's mum.

0:49:08 > 0:49:11There's nine of us. Do we need to phone him

0:49:11 > 0:49:12and tell him he's messed up?

0:49:12 > 0:49:15There's not enough room in the taxis for all of us,

0:49:15 > 0:49:17so I'm going to have to drive

0:49:17 > 0:49:19as I'm the only one that's not been drinking.

0:49:21 > 0:49:25So it's a bit... A bit of a... Mm...

0:49:26 > 0:49:29With the bridesmaids and Denise on their way,

0:49:29 > 0:49:31it's finally time for Jess to leave with her dad.

0:49:31 > 0:49:35Oh, well, he's got a traditional car.

0:49:35 > 0:49:37Thank you.

0:49:37 > 0:49:39But before they head to the racetrack,

0:49:39 > 0:49:43there are a few guests they need to pick up first.

0:49:43 > 0:49:46Where are we going?

0:49:48 > 0:49:50It looks like I might be getting married at the pub.

0:49:50 > 0:49:53ENGINES REV

0:49:58 > 0:50:00Oh, my God!

0:50:00 > 0:50:03Oh, my God! Look at them all!

0:50:05 > 0:50:07Oh, wow!

0:50:10 > 0:50:14- Oh, my God! Did you know?- I didn't. No, no.

0:50:16 > 0:50:20Really, absolutely shocked that all of these guys are here for this.

0:50:20 > 0:50:23It's absolutely amazing.

0:50:24 > 0:50:27All the bikers are taking us wherever we're going.

0:50:27 > 0:50:30It's absolutely unbelievable. I'm so honoured.

0:50:30 > 0:50:33So, so honoured. They are all here for me and Luke.

0:50:33 > 0:50:36It's amazing! Absolutely amazing.

0:50:36 > 0:50:39With Jess overwhelmed by the bikes,

0:50:39 > 0:50:43Luke's managed to appeal to both the bride and his future father-in-law.

0:50:43 > 0:50:47Aye, fair play to him. Nice show. Nice sound.

0:50:47 > 0:50:49It's awesome really.

0:50:49 > 0:50:51ENGINES REV

0:50:57 > 0:51:00She's got a Harley-Davidson convoy

0:51:00 > 0:51:04but she's still in the dark over where she's headed.

0:51:04 > 0:51:07I just literally have no idea where I am. Like I just don't know

0:51:07 > 0:51:10- what is around.- Don't you?- No.

0:51:10 > 0:51:14- Donington Park.- Pardon? - Donington Park.

0:51:14 > 0:51:16Do you see it now?

0:51:16 > 0:51:18There.

0:51:18 > 0:51:20Just off. You've seen it.

0:51:30 > 0:51:33Just never, never in a million years would have guessed that

0:51:33 > 0:51:35this would've been the way it would go.

0:51:37 > 0:51:40It's the moment everyone's been waiting for.

0:51:40 > 0:51:42The groom, the best man,

0:51:42 > 0:51:45and 60 bikers on Harleys that nobody's ever met before.

0:51:45 > 0:51:49Oh, my God! Look how many people there are!

0:51:49 > 0:51:51CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:52:01 > 0:52:06But, a long last, it's time for Jess to become Mrs Tomlinson.

0:52:23 > 0:52:25SHE MOUTHS

0:52:27 > 0:52:29I can't help it. Sorry.

0:52:35 > 0:52:39Luke, in placing the ring on Jess's finger, please repeat after me.

0:52:39 > 0:52:42- I give you this ring... - I give the you this ring...

0:52:42 > 0:52:45- ..as a sign of our marriage... - ..as a sign of our marriage...

0:52:45 > 0:52:48- ..and a token of my love for you. - ..and a token of my love for you.

0:53:02 > 0:53:06Congratulations, Luke and Jess, Mr and Mrs Tomlinson.

0:53:06 > 0:53:10I pronounce your husband and wife. Luke, you may kiss your bride.

0:53:10 > 0:53:13APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

0:53:19 > 0:53:23- Amazing. - I still think it's a bit surreal.

0:53:23 > 0:53:25Yeah, but that's an amazing feeling.

0:53:25 > 0:53:28Yeah, it is. You've done an awesome job.

0:53:28 > 0:53:30- Amazing.- Isn't it?- Yeah.

0:53:32 > 0:53:34As the couple head off to legalise their wedding,

0:53:34 > 0:53:38it seems the ceremony has gone down a treat with the guests.

0:53:38 > 0:53:42It was fabulous. Its the best day of my life. It's been fantastic.

0:53:42 > 0:53:44I couldn't be happier.

0:53:47 > 0:53:49- He could've just pulled it off. - Yeah, he could've.

0:53:49 > 0:53:52See what the rest of the day's got to bring, shall we?

0:53:55 > 0:53:57It's possibly hard to accept,

0:53:57 > 0:54:01or take on board that she's going for good finally.

0:54:01 > 0:54:04But it's nice to know that she's going to be looked after

0:54:04 > 0:54:08by somebody who, I am quite confident, has that capability.

0:54:08 > 0:54:09Bless him.

0:54:09 > 0:54:11MUSIC: "Africa" by Toto

0:54:11 > 0:54:14It's time for Luke to reveal the safari-themed marquee

0:54:14 > 0:54:16he's created in Jess's honour.

0:54:20 > 0:54:22Wow! You've never done this?

0:54:22 > 0:54:26How the hell have you managed this?

0:54:26 > 0:54:28This is for you, this bit.

0:54:28 > 0:54:31This is amazing. And there are safari animals!

0:54:31 > 0:54:34Oh, look at all the balloons in all the different leopard print

0:54:34 > 0:54:35and zebra print.

0:54:35 > 0:54:40That's awesome. I am literally blown away. It's amazing.

0:54:43 > 0:54:45No, you've done brilliantly. Absolutely amazing.

0:54:45 > 0:54:47I can't wait for everyone to come in and see it.

0:54:47 > 0:54:51With his mix of birds and beasts, Luke's managed to pull off

0:54:51 > 0:54:54a room to remember for his beautiful bride.

0:54:54 > 0:54:56But most importantly,

0:54:56 > 0:54:59his in-laws seem to be impressed with the decor too.

0:54:59 > 0:55:03- That is so beautiful. - Just fantastic, isn't it?

0:55:03 > 0:55:04- Yeah.- Yeah.

0:55:04 > 0:55:05APPLAUSE

0:55:10 > 0:55:12It's been an emotional day.

0:55:12 > 0:55:15But has Luke managed to convince Jess's parents

0:55:15 > 0:55:18that he's finally a man worthy of their daughter's hand.

0:55:18 > 0:55:20Fair play to you. Good job done. Brownie points earnt.

0:55:20 > 0:55:22- OK? - APPLAUSE

0:55:22 > 0:55:25I think that's a yes.

0:55:25 > 0:55:27It's a special day. A special feeling.

0:55:27 > 0:55:32- I'll remember it for a long time. - He's done a remarkable job. Um...

0:55:35 > 0:55:36HE CHUCKLES

0:55:40 > 0:55:44And I've just so pleased that Jessica is so happy with the day.

0:55:44 > 0:55:46No, it's just...

0:55:46 > 0:55:52They're so happy together and I know that Luke loves her so, so much

0:55:52 > 0:55:54and she'll have a good life in front of her.

0:55:54 > 0:55:57If he'd have told me three weeks ago, "Jess, I'm going to plan

0:55:57 > 0:56:01"a wedding, it's at Donington." I'd have gone, "No, it's not."

0:56:01 > 0:56:03- "It's definitely not."- What?

0:56:06 > 0:56:08After the bridesmaid dresses,

0:56:08 > 0:56:10I really wanted him to do something wrong...

0:56:10 > 0:56:12Oh, you need to get over the bridesmaids' dresses!

0:56:13 > 0:56:15Nobody knows me as well as you do.

0:56:15 > 0:56:18You even know me better for choosing my wedding dress.

0:56:18 > 0:56:21Maybe it's YOUR turn to buy MY clothes for me and I'll sit at home.

0:56:21 > 0:56:25Oh, no, I'm looking forward to you going out shopping for me.

0:56:26 > 0:56:28My shopping days are well and truly done now. That's it.

0:56:28 > 0:56:30# Yeah, I'll carry you

0:56:30 > 0:56:35# I'll carry you, I'll carry you

0:56:35 > 0:56:38# So you know that I'll carry you

0:56:38 > 0:56:43# I'll carry you, I'll carry you

0:56:43 > 0:56:48# So you know that I'll carry you I'll carry you... #
