0:00:06 > 0:00:09Every girl likes to take control of her wedding.

0:00:09 > 0:00:13So what happens when she has no say on her big day?

0:00:13 > 0:00:15Ah, they are awful!

0:00:15 > 0:00:16We're not doing it.

0:00:16 > 0:00:18Don't Tell The Bride is back.

0:00:18 > 0:00:19This is ridiculous.

0:00:19 > 0:00:21As ever, the grooms are in charge.

0:00:21 > 0:00:23I want there to be a donkey at the wedding.

0:00:23 > 0:00:25I'm going to look lovely on our big day.

0:00:25 > 0:00:28But with £12,000 to spend

0:00:28 > 0:00:31and just three weeks to throw the wedding of their dreams...

0:00:31 > 0:00:33Tell my mum I love her! Ah!

0:00:33 > 0:00:36..have the boys pushed themselves too far?

0:00:36 > 0:00:37Oh, my God!

0:00:37 > 0:00:38You're fired!

0:00:38 > 0:00:40With more shocking,

0:00:40 > 0:00:42more outrageous,

0:00:42 > 0:00:45and more daredevil weddings than ever before,

0:00:45 > 0:00:47will there be a happy ever after?

0:00:47 > 0:00:50This is not the thing you get wrong the day before your wedding.

0:00:50 > 0:00:52Will true love save the day?

0:00:52 > 0:00:54Mum, what is that? Mum, what is that?

0:00:54 > 0:00:56Or is it a countdown to disaster?

0:00:56 > 0:00:59Three, two, one!

0:01:00 > 0:01:03Tonight, country boy David...

0:01:03 > 0:01:05Look at that thing. That is huge!

0:01:05 > 0:01:08Dreams of floating away on his wedding day.

0:01:08 > 0:01:10I think I'm doing this.

0:01:10 > 0:01:13But will his demanding bride-to-be, Elle...

0:01:13 > 0:01:16- I'm disappointed that I'm in a taxi. - You're such a diva!

0:01:16 > 0:01:17..be on board?

0:01:17 > 0:01:19I think it's a bit of a piss-take, to be honest.

0:01:19 > 0:01:21I am disappointed.

0:01:21 > 0:01:24Can David fulfil his promise of a dream day...

0:01:24 > 0:01:26She'll be surprised and it will impress her.

0:01:26 > 0:01:28..and design a fairy-tale gown?

0:01:28 > 0:01:32- Oh, no.- It's short.

0:01:32 > 0:01:34Or will his sky-high wedding...

0:01:34 > 0:01:35If I don't like them,

0:01:35 > 0:01:37we'll put them all in the garden, then we'll burn them.

0:01:37 > 0:01:39..come crashing down?

0:01:39 > 0:01:41Mum, what is that? Mum, what is that?

0:01:59 > 0:02:02Laidback David met his feisty fiance, Elle,

0:02:02 > 0:02:04just over a year ago at a friend's party.

0:02:05 > 0:02:07- Was that good?- Yeah.

0:02:07 > 0:02:12I had a massive infected scab on my arm from a very poor tattoo,

0:02:12 > 0:02:15and Elle walked up to me and told me it was rank.

0:02:16 > 0:02:19I was like, "Ugh, who's that skank?"

0:02:20 > 0:02:22I love the fact that she had that edge to come

0:02:22 > 0:02:26and just take the piss and it made me like her even more.

0:02:26 > 0:02:27I was in love instantly.

0:02:33 > 0:02:36The first night we sat and had a proper chat,

0:02:36 > 0:02:37I felt like I'd known him for years.

0:02:37 > 0:02:40He's quite...sensitive

0:02:40 > 0:02:42and it was just nice someone showing,

0:02:42 > 0:02:44like, a bit of interest, I suppose.

0:02:47 > 0:02:49Despite an awkward start,

0:02:49 > 0:02:5222-year-old David knew Elle was the girl of his dreams.

0:02:52 > 0:02:55I came home the next day and said to my mum,

0:02:55 > 0:02:59"I've never felt like this. I'm absolutely hypnotised by her."

0:02:59 > 0:03:01She'll just be able to say the slightest thing

0:03:01 > 0:03:03and put the biggest smile on my face.

0:03:03 > 0:03:07I've felt so at ease, so happy with my life.

0:03:07 > 0:03:11Six months later, the Cambridge couple moved in together

0:03:11 > 0:03:13and David popped the question.

0:03:13 > 0:03:17I proposed on our kitchen floor when Elle was putting away our shopping.

0:03:17 > 0:03:20I was shouting at him to bring round the bags.

0:03:20 > 0:03:22I popped round the corner right behind her.

0:03:22 > 0:03:23She turned round and there I was.

0:03:23 > 0:03:26He just got on one knee and said, "Will you marry me?"

0:03:26 > 0:03:29And I was like, "Yeah. Yeah." I felt really embarrassed.

0:03:29 > 0:03:31I didn't know what to say.

0:03:31 > 0:03:34The young lovebirds now live with David's parents

0:03:34 > 0:03:36whilst they save for a place of their own.

0:03:36 > 0:03:38He brought me in here and I was like,

0:03:38 > 0:03:40"Bloody hell, is this your house?"

0:03:40 > 0:03:42And he was like, "Yeah." I was like, "Ooh."

0:03:46 > 0:03:48David moved to this house aged ten

0:03:48 > 0:03:51when his mum, Jill, met his stepdad, Chris.

0:03:51 > 0:03:54It was like walking into a dream.

0:03:54 > 0:03:57I ran out into the countryside.

0:03:57 > 0:04:00And his love of the outdoors is a passion he still shares

0:04:00 > 0:04:05with a close-knit group of friends, including Ralph and best man, Eddie.

0:04:06 > 0:04:09But this laidback, country-loving lifestyle

0:04:09 > 0:04:11is a world away from Elle's.

0:04:12 > 0:04:14His family, they're very, very different to mine.

0:04:14 > 0:04:17I can't even explain it. Chalk and cheese.

0:04:17 > 0:04:19We always mess around and say we're like the family off Shameless.

0:04:21 > 0:04:22Oh, that was a nightmare.

0:04:22 > 0:04:26My family are loud, lairy. We say what we think.

0:04:26 > 0:04:28I've never heard a daughter call her mum a slag

0:04:28 > 0:04:30and then have a laugh and joke about it.

0:04:30 > 0:04:32I think you need to pipe down a little bit there.

0:04:32 > 0:04:34Yeah, I love my family.

0:04:34 > 0:04:37We're all really close, so it's really nice.

0:04:37 > 0:04:40Despite her happy home life, 21-year-old Elle

0:04:40 > 0:04:41had a troublesome youth,

0:04:41 > 0:04:45mainly because she was a bit of a troublesome youth.

0:04:45 > 0:04:49I was quite feisty and, like, fighting all the time.

0:04:49 > 0:04:50I was a bit naughty.

0:04:50 > 0:04:54She has a very short fuse, but I can't knock her for it.

0:04:54 > 0:04:55That's all she's ever known.

0:04:55 > 0:04:57I know I can calm her down,

0:04:57 > 0:05:02but I know that it's pretty hard for anybody else to even try.

0:05:04 > 0:05:07While Elle may have a fiery relationship with her mum,

0:05:07 > 0:05:09David can't live without his.

0:05:09 > 0:05:11- Hello, my dear! You all right? - Hello, my darling!- Good day?

0:05:11 > 0:05:12Yeah, not bad.

0:05:12 > 0:05:15David's mum, she mollycoddles him a lot.

0:05:15 > 0:05:17I'm a mummy's boy, I have to admit it.

0:05:17 > 0:05:20I have always been really close with my mum.

0:05:20 > 0:05:24She babies David and, whereas my mum's been like,

0:05:24 > 0:05:25"No, you get on with it."

0:05:25 > 0:05:29It's made me lazy, I can't deny that.

0:05:29 > 0:05:32I think I am quite used to always having someone

0:05:32 > 0:05:35that's been there to sort things out for me.

0:05:35 > 0:05:38And now, lucky David has two women to look after him.

0:05:38 > 0:05:39Thank you, baby.

0:05:39 > 0:05:41I do everything for him.

0:05:41 > 0:05:44The fact that she looks after me and she's so willing to do that,

0:05:44 > 0:05:47that just shows how much of a big heart she has.

0:05:47 > 0:05:50I'm a care support worker for a charity.

0:05:51 > 0:05:54It's really, really hard work.

0:05:54 > 0:05:58Since living with David, a day's work is never done for Elle.

0:05:58 > 0:06:01When I have to come home after a shift and tidy up,

0:06:01 > 0:06:04that's when I get annoyed at David.

0:06:04 > 0:06:06He relies on me a little bit too much sometimes.

0:06:06 > 0:06:09He don't do anything unless I tell him.

0:06:09 > 0:06:11Pisses me off.

0:06:11 > 0:06:13Well, they do say opposites attract.

0:06:14 > 0:06:15We're very different people

0:06:15 > 0:06:18but I think that's what makes us work so well together

0:06:18 > 0:06:21is cos we fill the opposing bits of people.

0:06:21 > 0:06:25- Mm-hm.- Like, I'm incredibly relaxed and Elle's very tightly wound.

0:06:28 > 0:06:30As she has looked after me so much

0:06:30 > 0:06:32and I know she will continue to,

0:06:32 > 0:06:34I'd love to give her that one day

0:06:34 > 0:06:37where there's absolutely nothing she's had to worry about.

0:06:37 > 0:06:40So, David, who's never planned a thing in his life,

0:06:40 > 0:06:42will have a job on his hands planning a whole wedding.

0:06:42 > 0:06:44This is going to be very testing.

0:06:44 > 0:06:48He needs to be like, more like, oomph, get things done.

0:06:48 > 0:06:50I hope he will become more organised and better with money

0:06:50 > 0:06:52and manage it and stuff.

0:06:52 > 0:06:55I think that's what he wants to prove to me more than anything,

0:06:55 > 0:06:57so, let's hope he does it right.

0:06:59 > 0:07:01Is it heavy?

0:07:01 > 0:07:02Yes, it is heavy.

0:07:03 > 0:07:06It's time for David and Elle to say goodbye.

0:07:06 > 0:07:08SHE MOANS

0:07:10 > 0:07:11- I love you.- Love you too.

0:07:13 > 0:07:14Behave yourself.

0:07:14 > 0:07:15I will.

0:07:15 > 0:07:18Elle will be moving out for the next three weeks.

0:07:18 > 0:07:19HORN BEEPS

0:07:23 > 0:07:25I couldn't look at him when I was saying bye to him...

0:07:26 > 0:07:29..cos I knew that I'd cry and I didn't want to cry.

0:07:32 > 0:07:34It's going to be really hard being apart for three weeks.

0:07:34 > 0:07:36I don't know how I'm going to manage.

0:07:36 > 0:07:39I'm going to have to take it day by day.

0:07:39 > 0:07:41For Elle, it's back to mum Claire's house,

0:07:41 > 0:07:44where she'll be sharing a bedroom with younger sister Chloe.

0:07:44 > 0:07:46I'm looking forward to it.

0:07:46 > 0:07:47Even though she's not, I am.

0:07:49 > 0:07:50Do you want the milk?

0:07:50 > 0:07:53- Yeah, please, honey. How are you feeling?- All right.

0:07:53 > 0:07:55- Are you sure?- Yeah, I'm fine!

0:07:55 > 0:07:56All right. All right!

0:07:56 > 0:07:59Christ, it's already started, innit!

0:07:59 > 0:08:00Is this one mine?

0:08:00 > 0:08:04I love Elle, but she throws hissy fits, she is a total queenie.

0:08:04 > 0:08:06- How was David when you left him? - Yeah, he was all right.

0:08:06 > 0:08:09- Yeah?- He's a bit more upset than me cos I'm...- Was he?

0:08:09 > 0:08:10..trying to be hard.

0:08:10 > 0:08:14Ah. I'm just worried that you're going to have a few hissy fits.

0:08:14 > 0:08:17- I will, but I'm all right at the minute.- OK.

0:08:17 > 0:08:19I think so long as you try and remain focused

0:08:19 > 0:08:22on the fact that it's only three weeks.

0:08:22 > 0:08:24- Only(?) Yeah.- That's all.

0:08:24 > 0:08:27I think she's a lot more upset than she's making out.

0:08:27 > 0:08:29She's just trying to put on a show.

0:08:31 > 0:08:34Back in the country, it's day one of wedding planning.

0:08:34 > 0:08:37- All right?- Oh, is one of them for me?- It certainly is.

0:08:37 > 0:08:41With Elle gone, David is surprisingly quick off the mark.

0:08:41 > 0:08:43Best man, Eddie, has arrived,

0:08:43 > 0:08:46and with the tea made, David's keen to share his vision.

0:08:46 > 0:08:47Let's get cracking!

0:08:47 > 0:08:49A big bubble, which should be

0:08:49 > 0:08:52at the top, is a hot-air balloon.

0:08:53 > 0:08:56I want to get married in a hot-air balloon.

0:08:56 > 0:08:59I think that's something that you'd...you'd never forget that,

0:08:59 > 0:09:00can you?

0:09:00 > 0:09:02I mean, actually saying your vows, putting the ring on

0:09:02 > 0:09:05and just being able to look across the world

0:09:05 > 0:09:07that we now have to share together.

0:09:07 > 0:09:11Theme - insane tea party.

0:09:11 > 0:09:14Lanterns. Candles. Teacups.

0:09:14 > 0:09:18What do you think when I say "insane tea party"?

0:09:18 > 0:09:19Alice In Wonderland.

0:09:20 > 0:09:21Yeah, it's a given.

0:09:21 > 0:09:25I think David's plans are a bit mad.

0:09:25 > 0:09:27He is kind of winging it with the air balloon.

0:09:27 > 0:09:30The weather wise it might go tits up.

0:09:31 > 0:09:36Yep, hot-air balloon flights are notoriously weather-dependent.

0:09:36 > 0:09:39Well, I can hear it coming but I can't see it yet!

0:09:39 > 0:09:43David needs to find out if his grand plan will even get off the ground.

0:09:43 > 0:09:45- Look at that thing.- Oh, God. - That is huge!

0:09:46 > 0:09:49I've come to meet a gentleman called Gary,

0:09:49 > 0:09:51which is a friend of one of my work colleagues.

0:09:51 > 0:09:53I'm hoping he's going to be able to sort out a hot-air balloon!

0:09:53 > 0:09:56David and Eddie are supposed to be taking a test flight.

0:09:56 > 0:09:59Yeah, me, mate!

0:09:59 > 0:10:01I think it's going to be good fun.

0:10:03 > 0:10:04Good fun?

0:10:06 > 0:10:09I'm slightly more worried than I assumed I would be.

0:10:09 > 0:10:10Yeah.

0:10:10 > 0:10:13But the windy weather means this balloon is going nowhere.

0:10:14 > 0:10:17Not a great start for a groom who's based his entire wedding ceremony

0:10:17 > 0:10:19on a balloon flight.

0:10:19 > 0:10:22In my eyes, you wouldn't have thought it's that windy.

0:10:22 > 0:10:25- But if this is too windy to go up in...- No.

0:10:28 > 0:10:31..it means it's got to be a pretty perfect day for weather wise.

0:10:31 > 0:10:33- Hi, Gary?- Hello there, David. How are you? You all right?

0:10:33 > 0:10:35- Great. Nice to meet you. - Nice to meet you.

0:10:35 > 0:10:38- It's a mighty bit of kit, isn't it? - It certainly is.

0:10:38 > 0:10:41The balloon needs near-perfect conditions before it can take off.

0:10:41 > 0:10:45But with his heart set on it, David is determined to push on.

0:10:45 > 0:10:49So long as the wind is below the ten knots and it's dry...

0:10:49 > 0:10:51- Mm-hm.- ..then we can do it so long as, you know,

0:10:51 > 0:10:53- we've not got the gusty winds... - Absolutely.

0:10:53 > 0:10:55..and that we'll have a three-point tether.

0:10:55 > 0:10:58Anchoring the balloon to the ground by ropes is David's best chance

0:10:58 > 0:11:00of getting airborne on the day.

0:11:00 > 0:11:03It'll be very rigid as it goes up and down,

0:11:03 > 0:11:05- cos it'll be on... - Nice and smooth though.

0:11:05 > 0:11:07- Yes.- Yes, that's right. - Keep the bride calm.

0:11:07 > 0:11:08Absolutely, yes.

0:11:08 > 0:11:10I just hope she's not scared of heights.

0:11:10 > 0:11:13Yeah, I'm also hoping that.

0:11:13 > 0:11:16So the only thing I have to worry about now is the wind.

0:11:16 > 0:11:19What?! The one thing you can't control or predict!

0:11:19 > 0:11:21- I think I'm doing this.- Yeah.

0:11:23 > 0:11:26- Get back here tomorrow and... - Still cool as a cucumber currently.

0:11:26 > 0:11:29I'm sure I'll be a fiery pepper by the end of it.

0:11:29 > 0:11:31Definitely be something to remember, no doubt about it.

0:11:31 > 0:11:33Yeah, it's going to leave a massive impression.

0:11:33 > 0:11:36Well, let's hope it's for the right reasons!

0:11:39 > 0:11:43The next morning, while David dreams of floating up, up and away,

0:11:43 > 0:11:45Elle's up and at 'em!

0:11:45 > 0:11:48She's brought sister Chloe and bridesmaid Abbie

0:11:48 > 0:11:50to see her dream venue.

0:11:50 > 0:11:52I've always wanted it in a barn

0:11:52 > 0:11:54cos I love, like, all vintage stuff and...

0:11:54 > 0:11:57My mum's friend had her wedding here a little while ago

0:11:57 > 0:11:59and this is the place I thought of straightaway

0:11:59 > 0:12:00that I'd love to get married in.

0:12:00 > 0:12:04Bassmead Manor is a 300-year-old converted barn,

0:12:04 > 0:12:07ideal for an intimate, romantic, indoor,

0:12:07 > 0:12:10feet-firmly-on-the-ground wedding.

0:12:10 > 0:12:13- Aw, look.- Wow.- I love it!

0:12:13 > 0:12:14I'd just have fairy lights everywhere,

0:12:14 > 0:12:16like, all round these bits.

0:12:16 > 0:12:18- What are they called? Beams? - Beams, yeah.- Yeah.

0:12:18 > 0:12:19All round the beams.

0:12:19 > 0:12:21Jam jars all the way down.

0:12:21 > 0:12:24Then I'd have Nicky's little girl throwing rose petals.

0:12:24 > 0:12:26I just want a simple ceremony.

0:12:26 > 0:12:30I don't want anything like huge and over the top.

0:12:30 > 0:12:32I think this is just right.

0:12:32 > 0:12:35It's cosy and it feels homely, doesn't it?

0:12:35 > 0:12:38I'd love it to be somewhere like this for Elle. Yeah, definitely.

0:12:39 > 0:12:42But only time can tell. SHE LAUGHS

0:12:42 > 0:12:45- I'm not a stately home girl, am I, really?- No.

0:12:47 > 0:12:48- Huh, uh!- So it's a good job

0:12:48 > 0:12:52the boys haven't come to see a stately ho... Oh, look, they have.

0:12:52 > 0:12:55Still, this one holds happy memories for David.

0:12:55 > 0:12:58We're at Shuttleworth College. It's where I used to come to college

0:12:58 > 0:13:01and it is the venue that I dreamt about.

0:13:01 > 0:13:05And this country-loving boy is after a picture-perfect location

0:13:05 > 0:13:08with plenty of outdoor space to host his hot-air balloon wedding

0:13:08 > 0:13:13followed by, wait for it, a Mad Hatter's tea party reception.

0:13:13 > 0:13:16Always good to mix things up a bit on your wedding day.

0:13:16 > 0:13:21And I want to be able to see nothing but the world that I love around me.

0:13:21 > 0:13:25Time to meet facility manager Andrew to discuss the options.

0:13:25 > 0:13:29This area, we do have marquees for weddings during the summer months.

0:13:29 > 0:13:31It looks a lot smaller than I remember it being.

0:13:31 > 0:13:35Well, will this impress the bride-to-be?

0:13:35 > 0:13:37She'll be surprised and it will impress her,

0:13:37 > 0:13:39so we're ticking both boxes there.

0:13:39 > 0:13:40BLEATING

0:13:40 > 0:13:42There's one thing that I need to ask, which is

0:13:42 > 0:13:45I'd like to have a hot-air balloon brought in.

0:13:45 > 0:13:48- We have had balloons on the estate before...- Yeah.

0:13:48 > 0:13:51..so I don't see there being any real major issues there at all.

0:13:51 > 0:13:53- This is my venue.- Definite choice, yeah?

0:13:53 > 0:13:55Yeah, this is the picture I had in my head.

0:13:55 > 0:13:57It's a good bit of land to work with, to be honest.

0:13:57 > 0:14:01- This has to be it.- You've got the view. You've got the wildlife...

0:14:02 > 0:14:04Ah, it's well nice, isn't it?

0:14:04 > 0:14:07I don't want to be outside in the cold, shivering,

0:14:07 > 0:14:10because you know that I'm a moany cow and I'll be like,

0:14:10 > 0:14:13"Ah, I'm cold, I'm cold," and, "My hair, my hair!"

0:14:13 > 0:14:17It's got, like, a woman's touch with all the little details

0:14:17 > 0:14:18and flowers and stuff.

0:14:18 > 0:14:21It's quite peaceful and quite calming, really homely

0:14:21 > 0:14:23and Elle likes things like that.

0:14:23 > 0:14:26I'd want jam jars with, like, lace around them.

0:14:26 > 0:14:28- What, different sized jam jars?- Yeah.

0:14:28 > 0:14:31If she got this place, I think she would be so happy.

0:14:31 > 0:14:33- SHEEP BLEATS - Sh, quiet, you.

0:14:34 > 0:14:37Mind made up, David's off to talk money.

0:14:38 > 0:14:40And as he's not using any other facilities,

0:14:40 > 0:14:42it should at least be cheap, right?

0:14:42 > 0:14:45Right, so we need to get down onto prices, if you would.

0:14:45 > 0:14:48If we were just to look if you were organising everything yourself...

0:14:48 > 0:14:51- Yep.- ..I would look at a facility hire of £4,000 for the day.

0:14:51 > 0:14:56So that's £4,000 for an area of grass in the grounds.

0:14:56 > 0:14:57How does that sound to you then, David?

0:14:57 > 0:14:59- Um...- Pricey.

0:14:59 > 0:15:02- Way over budget. - It looks good to me.

0:15:02 > 0:15:05- What?!- Perfect. Well, I'll shake your hand. Congratulations!

0:15:05 > 0:15:06Thank you very much.

0:15:06 > 0:15:09Wow, that was some tough negotiating!

0:15:09 > 0:15:10Well, that's one thing done.

0:15:10 > 0:15:12The main thing now is to get the marquee

0:15:12 > 0:15:15and then everything else is coming flooding in.

0:15:16 > 0:15:20So, having spent a third of his budget on a piece of grass,

0:15:20 > 0:15:22David spends almost £3,000

0:15:22 > 0:15:26on a circus-style marquee, complete with tables, chairs

0:15:26 > 0:15:28and a dance floor to go in it,

0:15:28 > 0:15:31all adding to his increasingly-eclectic wedding theme.

0:15:31 > 0:15:33- Shake your hand and make a deal with it!- Thank you. Yes.

0:15:33 > 0:15:37By the end of this first week, he's spent well over half his budget...

0:15:38 > 0:15:40..and he still has a lot to buy.

0:15:40 > 0:15:44Rings, food, drink, hen do, stag do,

0:15:44 > 0:15:47suits, bridesmaids' dresses.

0:15:47 > 0:15:50But I'm at a complete loss to think what these things are going to cost.

0:15:50 > 0:15:54With his spending at risk of spiralling out of control,

0:15:54 > 0:15:57there is someone who's more than happy to offer advice.

0:15:57 > 0:15:59No, he's not the best planner.

0:15:59 > 0:16:03He's got a good mum, though, that often helps him out.

0:16:03 > 0:16:057,000 without any of this.

0:16:05 > 0:16:09That leaves us just short of five grand to do all the rest.

0:16:09 > 0:16:12I think it's not all going in the right pots at the minute.

0:16:12 > 0:16:16Yeah, I think he might need to cut some corners with some things

0:16:16 > 0:16:18to allow for his lavish venue.

0:16:19 > 0:16:23With cost cutting in mind, David and Eddie head to a wedding dress shop.

0:16:25 > 0:16:26- Hiya.- Hiya.

0:16:26 > 0:16:29But they're not here to buy, they're here to be inspired.

0:16:31 > 0:16:35David is planning to save money by designing Elle's dress himself.

0:16:35 > 0:16:36No, really.

0:16:36 > 0:16:38I'm actually getting one made.

0:16:38 > 0:16:40- You're going to get a dress made in a week?- Yeah.

0:16:42 > 0:16:44Eddie's my best man. His mum's a seamstress...

0:16:44 > 0:16:46- Right.- ..and makes bridal dresses as well,

0:16:46 > 0:16:49so I need to have a good idea of what I want to be made.

0:16:49 > 0:16:51I think I've got a clear enough image

0:16:51 > 0:16:56and a good enough imagination to create something more magical

0:16:56 > 0:16:59than she probably would have imagined herself.

0:16:59 > 0:17:01Across town, Elle's brought her mum, sister

0:17:01 > 0:17:03and bridesmaids Nicky and Charlotte

0:17:03 > 0:17:05to an upmarket boutique where she's hoping

0:17:05 > 0:17:08to find her dream designer wedding dress.

0:17:08 > 0:17:11I think, until I walk into a shop, I'm not going to know what I want.

0:17:12 > 0:17:13I love that.

0:17:14 > 0:17:16Oh, I really like that!

0:17:16 > 0:17:19I like the mat... I like the back.

0:17:19 > 0:17:21You should try one of those other ones on to compare as well.

0:17:21 > 0:17:24- I like that one.- It's really nice. Oh, wow, that looks really...

0:17:24 > 0:17:26- 1920s...- Like Downton Abbey?

0:17:26 > 0:17:29Yeah. That's lovely. Really lovely.

0:17:29 > 0:17:31- Ooh.- Try that one on, yeah?

0:17:31 > 0:17:33With an array of stunning gowns to try,

0:17:33 > 0:17:35surely she'll find the right one in no time.

0:17:36 > 0:17:37ALL GASP

0:17:37 > 0:17:40- Wow!- Oh, my God, that is so princessy!- That is amazing.

0:17:40 > 0:17:41You look like Cinderella.

0:17:41 > 0:17:44I don't think it's me.

0:17:44 > 0:17:46- I don't think it looks good with short hair.- Why?

0:17:46 > 0:17:48I don't know!

0:17:48 > 0:17:50It's not the one. No.

0:17:50 > 0:17:53Well, the next one's bound to be perfect.

0:17:57 > 0:17:59No, I don't feel confident. No.

0:17:59 > 0:18:01Elle, you are actually turning into a bridezilla

0:18:01 > 0:18:02cos you can't find anything you like.

0:18:02 > 0:18:04I don't like it!

0:18:05 > 0:18:08Where do we start, mate? What are you looking for?

0:18:08 > 0:18:10I'm about as skilled as you are at this at the moment, mate,

0:18:10 > 0:18:13so just look and tell me what you think looks nice.

0:18:13 > 0:18:18Across town, wannabe designer David is also looking confused.

0:18:18 > 0:18:19This is scary.

0:18:22 > 0:18:25Do you want something long or short?

0:18:25 > 0:18:28Well, the majority of the day is outside,

0:18:28 > 0:18:29so I don't want to have anything

0:18:29 > 0:18:31that's going to be dragging along the floor.

0:18:31 > 0:18:33Unaware she'll be stomping through a field

0:18:33 > 0:18:35and then dangling above it...

0:18:35 > 0:18:36Oh, my God!

0:18:36 > 0:18:38..Elle's finally found a dress she likes.

0:18:38 > 0:18:40- Hey!- I love it.- You look like a Greek goddess.

0:18:40 > 0:18:42I feel like Kim Kardashian.

0:18:42 > 0:18:43ALL LAUGH

0:18:44 > 0:18:48A floaty, floor-sweeping, glamorous gown.

0:18:48 > 0:18:50- It looks amazing.- Look at the back. - Oh, my God!- Oh, wow.

0:18:50 > 0:18:52- I love it.- I love this one.

0:18:52 > 0:18:53It's perfect.

0:18:53 > 0:18:56It's glamorous and not too over the top.

0:18:56 > 0:19:00I love the material cos it flows, don't it?

0:19:00 > 0:19:02I didn't think she'd go for anything like that at all

0:19:02 > 0:19:04and now I'm really worried about the dress.

0:19:04 > 0:19:06I really don't know what he's going to end up with.

0:19:07 > 0:19:10It's not short-short but it's short.

0:19:10 > 0:19:11I like that.

0:19:11 > 0:19:15Meanwhile, David's got his eye on a short, 1950s prom-style dress.

0:19:16 > 0:19:18Do you reckon, Ed, do you reckon that's a sensible choice?

0:19:18 > 0:19:20That's it, mate. That is it.

0:19:20 > 0:19:21Absolutely!

0:19:21 > 0:19:23A '50s frock should fit in perfectly

0:19:23 > 0:19:26with the rural, Mad Hatter's, air balloon, tea party theme.

0:19:26 > 0:19:29I can see her probably picking something like that out herself.

0:19:29 > 0:19:30Well, she didn't.

0:19:30 > 0:19:33- Get the dress on.- Do you want me to put a dress on?

0:19:33 > 0:19:36DAVID LAUGHS Look, he's getting...he's getting into it now.

0:19:36 > 0:19:37Might as well go the whole hog.

0:19:37 > 0:19:39- I'm going to look lovely on our big day.- I love it.

0:19:39 > 0:19:41- Yeah.- It's a done deal.

0:19:42 > 0:19:45Quick, get out the door quick and then we might be able to keep it.

0:19:46 > 0:19:47Thanks for your help.

0:19:47 > 0:19:49Brimming with inspiration,

0:19:49 > 0:19:52it's time for David to put pen to paper

0:19:52 > 0:19:54and actually design the dress.

0:19:56 > 0:19:59Or maybe just, you know, adapt the one he saw in the shop.

0:19:59 > 0:20:02I haven't got a single idea in my head that I'd put on that

0:20:02 > 0:20:05that I think would make it look any nicer.

0:20:05 > 0:20:09Design done, David has given the seamstress, Eddie's mum, Sarah,

0:20:09 > 0:20:12the challenging task of bringing his vision to life.

0:20:12 > 0:20:15Come and save the day for me, Sarah.

0:20:15 > 0:20:17There is a picture that I won't hesitate to show you

0:20:17 > 0:20:20which is your dear son modelling it.

0:20:20 > 0:20:21SARAH LAUGHS

0:20:21 > 0:20:24But the lady in the shop said that that's a '50s-style dress.

0:20:24 > 0:20:25Yeah.

0:20:25 > 0:20:28Cos I want all the other bridesmaids to be in a similar-cut dress.

0:20:28 > 0:20:31Do you think you'll be able to do it in just over a week?

0:20:31 > 0:20:34Yeah. Well, I mean, we've got to get the fabric asap.

0:20:34 > 0:20:36Yep. Do you reckon you could mock up a price

0:20:36 > 0:20:38of what you think it might cost?

0:20:38 > 0:20:39I don't know, 400,

0:20:39 > 0:20:42something like that, as a rough... It's difficult to say.

0:20:42 > 0:20:45Well, that's good for me because I set 450 aside.

0:20:45 > 0:20:47I think we're in a pretty good position here, aren't we,

0:20:47 > 0:20:50- at the moment? - Well, I think so, apart from time.

0:20:50 > 0:20:53Yeah, well, apart from that, of course.

0:20:53 > 0:20:56If I was making a wedding dress for somebody,

0:20:56 > 0:20:58probably take a couple of months.

0:20:59 > 0:21:01SHE LAUGHS

0:21:01 > 0:21:02So, how many days have I got?

0:21:02 > 0:21:04I hope she'll love it. Yeah.

0:21:06 > 0:21:08Yeah, it'll be pretty devastating if she doesn't.

0:21:12 > 0:21:14It's the end of the first week

0:21:14 > 0:21:16and Elle's taking some much-needed time out

0:21:16 > 0:21:18to catch up with her mum, Claire.

0:21:18 > 0:21:22- Missing David then? - Yeah, lots and lots and lots.

0:21:22 > 0:21:23I feel like I'm going through a break-up!

0:21:23 > 0:21:25Do you think he's missing you?

0:21:25 > 0:21:27Yeah, lots.

0:21:27 > 0:21:29- Ah.- Course he will be.

0:21:29 > 0:21:30Do you think he's coping all right?

0:21:30 > 0:21:32Yeah! He's calm though, isn't he?

0:21:33 > 0:21:35He don't get stressed, does he?

0:21:36 > 0:21:38- Doesn't stress over anything. - No.

0:21:38 > 0:21:41But he's not ever been in this sort of environment before, has he?

0:21:41 > 0:21:44I'll worry when I see the dress.

0:21:44 > 0:21:45That's the only thing I'm worried about.

0:21:46 > 0:21:49Yeah, and that will be when you have a major meltdown.

0:21:49 > 0:21:51- Well, wouldn't you?- Well, yeah.

0:21:51 > 0:21:53I think that's pretty normal, isn't it?

0:21:53 > 0:21:55So what sort of style dress do you think he'll go for

0:21:55 > 0:21:57for the girls?

0:21:57 > 0:21:58Don't know.

0:21:58 > 0:21:59They're all different, so...

0:21:59 > 0:22:01That's what I'm worried about.

0:22:01 > 0:22:04- If he's not going to take them to choose them.- He can't!

0:22:04 > 0:22:07It's not fair on him to take eight girls with him.

0:22:07 > 0:22:08Aren't you getting worried about it?

0:22:08 > 0:22:10Out of sight, out of mind.

0:22:13 > 0:22:15Well, he's pretty far out of sight actually,

0:22:15 > 0:22:16because David's in London...

0:22:19 > 0:22:22..to find some 1950s bridesmaids dresses

0:22:22 > 0:22:24to complement Elle's wedding dress.

0:22:26 > 0:22:28Was there anything you were looking for in particular?

0:22:28 > 0:22:31My bride-to-be, she's having like a 1950s-style dress.

0:22:31 > 0:22:35- OK.- So I was looking for something like a similar sort of shape.- OK.

0:22:35 > 0:22:38Our best seller is probably the polka dot ones, so...

0:22:38 > 0:22:40Hmm. I mean, it is going to be quite bright.

0:22:40 > 0:22:43- Yeah.- It's a Mad Hatter's tea party theme.- Oh, wow.

0:22:43 > 0:22:45- I was thinking all different colours but...- Yeah.

0:22:45 > 0:22:47..all plain different colours.

0:22:47 > 0:22:49The shop assistant has picked out something

0:22:49 > 0:22:51that might fit David's criteria.

0:22:51 > 0:22:53I like it. It's nice.

0:22:53 > 0:22:57I'm just trying to imagine eight of the girls standing there in it.

0:22:57 > 0:22:59Do you have eight of that exact dress?

0:22:59 > 0:23:01Of this exact one, yeah.

0:23:01 > 0:23:05It might go with Elle's dress and his tea party theme,

0:23:05 > 0:23:06but there's a problem.

0:23:06 > 0:23:09My intention's always been the same dress, the same shape,

0:23:09 > 0:23:11but in different colours.

0:23:11 > 0:23:12Um...

0:23:12 > 0:23:16It's just whether a case of I get...scrap that.

0:23:19 > 0:23:21Oh, yeah, I do like the shape. It's 1950s, isn't it?

0:23:21 > 0:23:23Same as Elle's dress.

0:23:23 > 0:23:26But I think we need to look for different colours.

0:23:26 > 0:23:28- Safe to say it's a no-go on that.- Yeah.

0:23:28 > 0:23:31So the boys are leaving empty-handed.

0:23:34 > 0:23:37But, back at home, David's found what he's looking for.

0:23:38 > 0:23:40So I've found a website with other dresses on...

0:23:40 > 0:23:42- Yeah.- ..in different colours.

0:23:42 > 0:23:45I'll just try and have...have to try and match

0:23:45 > 0:23:46all of the sizes to the ones they have.

0:23:48 > 0:23:50So, as he places the order for eight dresses,

0:23:50 > 0:23:52he just has to hope they all fit.

0:23:59 > 0:24:01It's halfway through the second week,

0:24:01 > 0:24:04and the boys are taking a break from being wedding planners...

0:24:04 > 0:24:05- Ah!- ..and grown-ups.

0:24:06 > 0:24:08Underneath.

0:24:10 > 0:24:13Here's to what we've done, and congratulations to us.

0:24:15 > 0:24:17- Ha!- But it's not long before talk turns

0:24:17 > 0:24:20to David's dwindling wedding fund.

0:24:20 > 0:24:22We could have budgeted a bit better on certain things.

0:24:22 > 0:24:25A lot of things we've actually managed to cut down from what

0:24:25 > 0:24:28original budget we would have expected.

0:24:28 > 0:24:30One thing I saved on is the dress.

0:24:30 > 0:24:35I do think that the venue is an insane amount of money just...

0:24:35 > 0:24:37- Yeah. - ..to have a bit of their space.

0:24:37 > 0:24:39With little money remaining,

0:24:39 > 0:24:42David's decided to make some sacrifices.

0:24:42 > 0:24:45The budget for the stag do is zero pounds, zero pence.

0:24:45 > 0:24:47Yep.

0:24:47 > 0:24:52Instead, he's spending his entire stag do fund on Elle's hen do.

0:24:52 > 0:24:54I think it's clear to see, throughout all this,

0:24:54 > 0:24:56I just want to get it right for her.

0:24:56 > 0:24:58The woman I love is the woman I love

0:24:58 > 0:25:00and I want her to have the best life possible.

0:25:00 > 0:25:03If that means cutting corners for me, then that's what you've got to do.

0:25:04 > 0:25:07I'm missing her like mad.

0:25:07 > 0:25:10I knew I was going to miss her, I couldn't lie to myself,

0:25:10 > 0:25:13but I'm definitely missing her more than I thought, like.

0:25:17 > 0:25:19With only a week to go until the wedding,

0:25:19 > 0:25:21the girls are at Elle's mum's

0:25:21 > 0:25:23and are ready to party.

0:25:23 > 0:25:25- Ready?- Yeah.- Sexy.- Ah!

0:25:25 > 0:25:26THEY LAUGH

0:25:26 > 0:25:28I'm going to look like a stuffed sausage!

0:25:30 > 0:25:33At David's, the boys have come over to prepare for his

0:25:33 > 0:25:35penny-pinching stag...

0:25:35 > 0:25:37Right, all right, my love.

0:25:37 > 0:25:40..and mum's quick to offer a warning.

0:25:40 > 0:25:42Come back with two eyebrows, please.

0:25:42 > 0:25:45- And she's right to... - See you later!- Be safe!- Take care.

0:25:46 > 0:25:49..because this stag is going to be intense.

0:25:53 > 0:25:56They're going camping, in tents, in a field down the road,

0:25:56 > 0:25:58just as they did growing up.

0:25:58 > 0:26:01I need to tune it in. There we go.

0:26:06 > 0:26:09We're en route to find our dig ins for the stag do!

0:26:09 > 0:26:11I think you can see by the amount of alcohol

0:26:11 > 0:26:13that's what's going to happen.

0:26:13 > 0:26:16We're going to get pissed. Very pissed.

0:26:17 > 0:26:18After a short walk,

0:26:18 > 0:26:21the boys find the spot where David camped as a kid.

0:26:21 > 0:26:24Into that field, to the left, and then round to your left again

0:26:24 > 0:26:25and we'll be there.

0:26:28 > 0:26:30Over at Elle's, the girls are heading off on their hen do.

0:26:33 > 0:26:35- I'm disappointed that I'm in a taxi. - Elle!

0:26:35 > 0:26:37I am. I'm being truthful.

0:26:37 > 0:26:39You're such a diva!

0:26:39 > 0:26:42David has also organised them a trip down memory lane.

0:26:43 > 0:26:46It's just that the girls don't have such fond memories.

0:26:46 > 0:26:48I thought he was going to do something cool

0:26:48 > 0:26:50like get us a limo and let us have a little buzz around and...

0:26:50 > 0:26:52- Oh, come on, look. - Have faith in him, Elle.

0:26:52 > 0:26:55- Trust him, it's going to be good. - Yeah, I'm going to Eat N Bowl.

0:26:55 > 0:26:57- We are going to Eat N Bowl. BOTH:- We are at Eat N Bowl.

0:26:57 > 0:27:00- It's literally on the right-hand side.- Right, OK.

0:27:00 > 0:27:01I used to smoke in here when I was 13.

0:27:01 > 0:27:03- Elle!- That's why I used to come here.

0:27:03 > 0:27:05Are you sure this is right, yeah?

0:27:07 > 0:27:08Oh, this is embarrassing!

0:27:08 > 0:27:11MUSIC: "Primadonna" by Marina And The Diamonds

0:27:11 > 0:27:12It's fine.

0:27:24 > 0:27:25We've got some drinks in.

0:27:25 > 0:27:27I think it's a bit of a piss-take, to be honest.

0:27:27 > 0:27:28- I'll...- I am disappointed.

0:27:28 > 0:27:32Yeah, you just have to have a few drinks. You'll be fine.

0:27:32 > 0:27:33Yeah, let's get some shots then.

0:27:33 > 0:27:35Just got to enjoy it, Elle.

0:27:35 > 0:27:39- Cheers to David being a prick! ALL:- Yeah!

0:27:39 > 0:27:40Whoo!

0:27:42 > 0:27:44# Prima donna girl. #

0:27:45 > 0:27:48I'm just really disappointed because

0:27:48 > 0:27:51what else is going to be in store for tonight now?

0:27:51 > 0:27:53If it's shit, I'm going home.

0:27:53 > 0:27:55He probably thought that I'd have a laugh coming here

0:27:55 > 0:27:57but I suck at bowling, I don't even enjoy it,

0:27:57 > 0:28:01so he should have spent the money on something else for us girls.

0:28:02 > 0:28:03It could be worse.

0:28:03 > 0:28:05She could be in a cold, muddy field...

0:28:05 > 0:28:07like she'll be on her wedding day!

0:28:08 > 0:28:10There we go.

0:28:11 > 0:28:14As the boys huddle around the fire for warmth,

0:28:14 > 0:28:16David is looking to the future.

0:28:16 > 0:28:19A couple more nights, and I'm getting married and my wife's home!

0:28:19 > 0:28:21I can't wait to see her. I just want her home.

0:28:21 > 0:28:22Yeah, I know.

0:28:22 > 0:28:25I'm happy for you, mate. We're all happy for you.

0:28:25 > 0:28:26Cheers to that. Amen.

0:28:26 > 0:28:28- We'll all drink to that. - Chin-chin.

0:28:28 > 0:28:29Just hang about, hang about.

0:28:29 > 0:28:31And while the boys enjoy a simple night

0:28:31 > 0:28:33of booze, bangers and banter...

0:28:34 > 0:28:37..the girls still aren't exactly bowled over by their hen do.

0:28:37 > 0:28:38ALL: Cheers.

0:28:40 > 0:28:43You lot stitched me up on that one. You lot stitched me up hard, man.

0:28:43 > 0:28:45But they have found a better use for the bowling alley.

0:28:47 > 0:28:50Not like she's the first hen to end up drunk down an alley.

0:28:50 > 0:28:52I'd kill myself.

0:28:53 > 0:28:56Yeah, we've pretty much had enough now.

0:28:56 > 0:28:58But just as the girls think of calling it a night,

0:28:58 > 0:29:00David has a surprise.

0:29:01 > 0:29:03ALL:

0:29:03 > 0:29:05THEY ALL SCREAM

0:29:05 > 0:29:07- Oi, sick, it's a bus!- Ah!

0:29:08 > 0:29:10THEY SCREAM Elle! Elle!

0:29:16 > 0:29:19- David!- Right, here's to David! - ALL: Hooray!

0:29:21 > 0:29:22Elle, how exciting!

0:29:24 > 0:29:26Hen do!

0:29:27 > 0:29:31It seems the way to this bride's heart is through a party bus.

0:29:31 > 0:29:34- He definitely pulled it out the bag. - Definitely. Better than Eat N Bowl.

0:29:34 > 0:29:36Yeah, we're well happy now. We love you, David.

0:29:36 > 0:29:37- Thank you.- We love David!

0:29:40 > 0:29:44David has sacrificed his stag do to give Elle a night of VIP treatment.

0:29:46 > 0:29:48But, despite all the extravagance,

0:29:48 > 0:29:50there's just no pleasing some people.

0:29:50 > 0:29:54I think the majority of the budget has probably gone on David's stag do.

0:29:54 > 0:29:57- Oh, Penny!- Oh!- You bitch! - THEY LAUGH

0:29:59 > 0:30:01Limos and nightclubs for the girls

0:30:01 > 0:30:04and it's dank fields and night for the boys.

0:30:04 > 0:30:07We've got some Cumberlands. RADIO PLAYS

0:30:07 > 0:30:09We've got a couple of apple and ciders here.

0:30:09 > 0:30:12This is what I love doing with the people I love, so...

0:30:12 > 0:30:14- Ah!- Yeah, this is my stag do all over.

0:30:16 > 0:30:18DJ ANNOUNCES: Is anybody getting married?

0:30:18 > 0:30:19- Yes!- Right.- Whoo!

0:30:19 > 0:30:21MUSIC PLAYS

0:30:23 > 0:30:26It's going really good. We're having a really good night.

0:30:26 > 0:30:29I think Elle's calmed down now. She's really enjoying it.

0:30:30 > 0:30:32Tonight is showing that

0:30:32 > 0:30:35he's going to pull something out the bag and it's going to be good.

0:30:37 > 0:30:39So, as the girls finish their night on a high...

0:30:42 > 0:30:47..for the boys, David's fireside stag do marks the end of an era.

0:30:48 > 0:30:50We're all good friends. This is what we do.

0:30:50 > 0:30:52We enjoy each other's company.

0:30:52 > 0:30:53You grow up, don't you?

0:30:55 > 0:30:56And we're all going through that sort of

0:30:56 > 0:30:58you're growing up type thing,

0:30:58 > 0:31:00and he's getting married.

0:31:00 > 0:31:05A toast to the golden wedding of David Saunders and Elle Hutchinson.

0:31:05 > 0:31:07- Cheers, boys.- Cheers, boys! - Cheers, mate.

0:31:07 > 0:31:09It's the start of a change, isn't it?

0:31:09 > 0:31:11He's got to start thinking about someone else I suppose.

0:31:13 > 0:31:16- HE SIGHS - It's crazy.

0:31:18 > 0:31:20ALL SHOUT

0:31:21 > 0:31:24ALL SING # Shave his belly with a rusty razor

0:31:24 > 0:31:26# Shave his belly with a rusty razor

0:31:32 > 0:31:35# It's a beautiful morning

0:31:36 > 0:31:37# Ahh

0:31:38 > 0:31:42# I think I'll go outside for a while

0:31:42 > 0:31:44# And just smile

0:31:49 > 0:31:54# Ain't no sense in staying inside... #

0:31:54 > 0:31:56I think he was actually the last one.

0:31:56 > 0:31:58Yeah, he was the last man standing.

0:31:59 > 0:32:01Oh, my dear God.

0:32:02 > 0:32:04It was a very good night, yeah.

0:32:04 > 0:32:06I'm just feeling the effects of it this morning.

0:32:06 > 0:32:10Lots of drinking, lots of sing alongs

0:32:10 > 0:32:11and a lot of falling over.

0:32:13 > 0:32:15I was the last man standing.

0:32:15 > 0:32:17Everyone had gone to bed and my bed's ended up

0:32:17 > 0:32:20being one of those deckchairs.

0:32:20 > 0:32:21Mum will be happy to see me home in one piece.

0:32:26 > 0:32:30It's the start of the final week, and the bridesmaids' dresses

0:32:30 > 0:32:32David ordered online have finally arrived,

0:32:32 > 0:32:35- and so have the bridesmaids. - Hi, Ashley!- Hello!

0:32:35 > 0:32:38It's the moment of truth for a very nervous groom.

0:32:39 > 0:32:41- Evening, girls! ALL:- Hi.

0:32:41 > 0:32:44How we doing? Come look at these, quick, before I faint.

0:32:47 > 0:32:50He's about to find out if they like his 1950s dresses

0:32:50 > 0:32:54- and, more importantly, if they fit. - Ah! Ah!

0:32:57 > 0:32:59- Ooh!- Chloe...

0:32:59 > 0:33:00They'll probably look better on.

0:33:02 > 0:33:05- Put it on.- Oh, my God, Elle is going to be so angry.

0:33:05 > 0:33:07See you downstairs when you're done!

0:33:07 > 0:33:09Oi, quit complaining and put them on.

0:33:09 > 0:33:12- You'll all look lovely. - I'm mortified!

0:33:12 > 0:33:14I'm going to look like a Disney princess.

0:33:14 > 0:33:16It looks awful!

0:33:16 > 0:33:19Downstairs, David is bracing himself for the worst.

0:33:19 > 0:33:21I don't think I've ever been that scared in my life.

0:33:21 > 0:33:26It'll be all right, mate. They'll love them once they're on.

0:33:26 > 0:33:28Yeah, but that's the next part of the story,

0:33:28 > 0:33:30they're all BLEEP the wrong size.

0:33:30 > 0:33:34And it seems David's fears are about to come true.

0:33:34 > 0:33:37If it fitted, it would be all right, but they don't fit.

0:33:37 > 0:33:38It's disgusting.

0:33:38 > 0:33:41This is crazy! Are they actually the right dresses?

0:33:41 > 0:33:42- THEY LAUGH - Oh, my God!

0:33:44 > 0:33:47- They're laughing!- At them. - They're not crying!

0:33:47 > 0:33:50Oh, my God. If Elle was here, she would be screaming.

0:33:50 > 0:33:51Oh, my God, I can't breathe.

0:33:51 > 0:33:53Breathe in.

0:33:53 > 0:33:55Yeah, it won't do up. Mine don't do up either.

0:33:55 > 0:33:56Oh, my God.

0:33:57 > 0:33:59If they don't like them,

0:33:59 > 0:34:02Elle's reaction will be amplified by about ten of any of their opinions.

0:34:04 > 0:34:07And it's even worse than he suspected.

0:34:07 > 0:34:09David, what the BLEEP?

0:34:09 > 0:34:10Every one's too big.

0:34:10 > 0:34:12- Every single one too big? - Every single one.- Yeah.

0:34:12 > 0:34:13Look how big that is.

0:34:15 > 0:34:17What are we going to do?

0:34:17 > 0:34:19Take them off, I'll get you new ones.

0:34:19 > 0:34:22There's no way that I'm making any of those girls wear those.

0:34:22 > 0:34:23They don't fit them.

0:34:23 > 0:34:25Go on, then, girls, you can take them off.

0:34:28 > 0:34:30I knew I shouldn't have got those shitty dresses!

0:34:33 > 0:34:34Shit.

0:34:34 > 0:34:38With little money left in his budget and just two days until the wedding,

0:34:38 > 0:34:40David has a problem.

0:34:40 > 0:34:41I feel bad.

0:34:41 > 0:34:43Obviously he tried hard with colours and everything,

0:34:43 > 0:34:46- obviously the style and stuff, but it's just...- Flat shoes.

0:34:46 > 0:34:48..the fitting and that is just awful.

0:34:51 > 0:34:52Wah-ah!

0:34:52 > 0:34:55If we'd have gone to an average high street shop

0:34:55 > 0:34:56and bought them off the shelf,

0:34:56 > 0:34:59then I would have had eight dresses that fit actual sizes.

0:35:01 > 0:35:04As the bridesmaids leave, a desperate David gets back online

0:35:04 > 0:35:06in search of replacements.

0:35:08 > 0:35:11But with no chance of a refund until after the wedding,

0:35:11 > 0:35:14David turns to Mum for a loan.

0:35:14 > 0:35:16Do you know how much you're going to need to borrow?

0:35:16 > 0:35:19£359.92.

0:35:20 > 0:35:24With the order confirmed, he'll just have to hope the new dresses

0:35:24 > 0:35:25arrive before the wedding.

0:35:30 > 0:35:34In the meantime, David has a long list of items still to buy...

0:35:34 > 0:35:36- Right.- See you later. - See you later.- Bye.

0:35:36 > 0:35:39..because this wedding has a theme.

0:35:39 > 0:35:41Or should that be themes?

0:35:41 > 0:35:47To add to his Mad Hatter's, air balloon, tea party, rural,

0:35:47 > 0:35:501950s themes, over the next few days

0:35:50 > 0:35:52David buys...

0:35:52 > 0:35:55a 1940s wedding suit...

0:35:55 > 0:35:58- I don't think anybody will forget this waistcoat.- It's very good.

0:35:58 > 0:36:03..some New Age hippy lanterns, multicoloured throws

0:36:03 > 0:36:05and with only 200 quid left...

0:36:05 > 0:36:07I think we might need a trolley, mate.

0:36:07 > 0:36:10..sophisticated decorations for his marquee and tables.

0:36:10 > 0:36:12Six, eight.

0:36:12 > 0:36:14Shame they haven't got a queen one of these.

0:36:14 > 0:36:16So a kids' party shop should do the trick then!

0:36:17 > 0:36:2047 quid to finish, Ed.

0:36:22 > 0:36:23BALLOONS SQUEAK

0:36:23 > 0:36:26With the final frenzied shopping spree over,

0:36:26 > 0:36:27and only days until the wedding...

0:36:27 > 0:36:29- Bye-bye.- See ya.

0:36:30 > 0:36:33..the Mad Hatter finally sends his White Rabbit

0:36:33 > 0:36:35to deliver his bride's invitation.

0:36:43 > 0:36:45Oi, girls, come 'ere!

0:36:50 > 0:36:51Eddie!

0:36:54 > 0:36:56What you doing?

0:36:56 > 0:36:57I don't even know what it said.

0:36:57 > 0:36:59There's a sign.

0:36:59 > 0:37:00You've got to read the sign.

0:37:00 > 0:37:02"Elle Boo Boo,

0:37:02 > 0:37:04"marry me, 10th April, please.

0:37:04 > 0:37:06"Be ready for 2.00pm."

0:37:06 > 0:37:08Ah.

0:37:08 > 0:37:09Come on.

0:37:09 > 0:37:10That's original, isn't it?

0:37:10 > 0:37:12But it don't tell me where I'm going.

0:37:12 > 0:37:13It doesn't tell you nothing.

0:37:13 > 0:37:15- He had bunny ears. - He had bunny ears on.

0:37:15 > 0:37:17It could be a Playboy theme.

0:37:17 > 0:37:19THEY LAUGH Oh, BLEEP!

0:37:19 > 0:37:21- That's two days away.- Right. - 48 hours.

0:37:23 > 0:37:26But it's not just the invite that's worrying Elle.

0:37:27 > 0:37:29I understand that the girls hated their dresses

0:37:29 > 0:37:33and that they looked like they were a cast member for Grease,

0:37:33 > 0:37:35and that's not even my style at all!

0:37:35 > 0:37:38I tried Charlotte's dress on and it was huge on me.

0:37:38 > 0:37:41- I thought it was a joke at first. - I couldn't believe it.

0:37:41 > 0:37:42I'll tell you now, if I don't like them,

0:37:42 > 0:37:44we'll put them all in the garden

0:37:44 > 0:37:46and then we'll burn them and then I'll go off to Primark.

0:37:52 > 0:37:54It's the day before the wedding

0:37:54 > 0:37:57and time for Elle to see the dress that David has designed for her.

0:37:58 > 0:38:02Ah! I know where we are.

0:38:02 > 0:38:04- Where?- Eddie's house.

0:38:04 > 0:38:06Eddie's mum's like a seamstress, or whatever.

0:38:06 > 0:38:08Is that what they're called?

0:38:10 > 0:38:12She may know where she is,

0:38:12 > 0:38:14but, after the bridesmaid dress disaster,

0:38:14 > 0:38:17what will she make of her 1950s gown?

0:38:18 > 0:38:20- Hello! You all right?- Hello. You must be Elle!- Yeah!

0:38:20 > 0:38:23- I'm Sarah, Eddie's mum. - You all right?- Yeah. Are you scared?

0:38:23 > 0:38:26- I know you're Eddie's mum. Yeah! - Hello.- Hello. Come in.

0:38:26 > 0:38:30So I've been asked by David to make your dress for you.

0:38:30 > 0:38:35- OK.- And we sat and he designed it and...

0:38:35 > 0:38:37ROOM FALLS QUIET

0:38:37 > 0:38:40- Ah, no.- ..and I don't know if you're ready to see it.

0:38:40 > 0:38:42Yeah! Yeah, just show me it! Just show me it!

0:38:50 > 0:38:51I feel sick.

0:39:00 > 0:39:02GASPING

0:39:11 > 0:39:13It's short.

0:39:13 > 0:39:15Is that good? No?

0:39:15 > 0:39:17Yeah. I dunno! I dunno!

0:39:18 > 0:39:20It looks princessy, don't it?

0:39:21 > 0:39:23- Did he let you design that? - No, he did.

0:39:23 > 0:39:26- Are you joking?- No!- Are you serious?

0:39:26 > 0:39:29He's got sketches of it. Yeah.

0:39:29 > 0:39:31- Yeah.- Ah.- Ah!- Hmm!

0:39:31 > 0:39:34- So, are you ready to try it on now then?- Yeah.

0:39:34 > 0:39:36- Right.- Oh, my God.

0:39:41 > 0:39:43Obviously, the ones we saw at the bridal shop,

0:39:43 > 0:39:45the one...her dream dress she fell in love with,

0:39:45 > 0:39:47is completely different.

0:39:47 > 0:39:49I wonder what shoes he's getting for it...

0:39:49 > 0:39:50- I wonder what shoes it is.- Yeah.

0:39:50 > 0:39:52- You could have anything, couldn't you, with that?- Yeah.

0:39:55 > 0:39:57- Ta-da! - GASPING

0:39:59 > 0:40:03- Do I look thin, yeah?- You look tiny. Very nice.- Do I?- Yeah, tiny.

0:40:03 > 0:40:04Oh, good.

0:40:04 > 0:40:07If I went into a shop, I would have looked at it and been like,

0:40:07 > 0:40:08"Urgh, no."

0:40:10 > 0:40:13- I'd better shave my legs. - Does it feel nice and comfortable?

0:40:13 > 0:40:15- Yeah, yeah.- Yeah. It's lovely. - Yeah, it's nice.

0:40:15 > 0:40:16I love it!

0:40:16 > 0:40:18- Ah, well done, Sarah!- Woo-hoo!

0:40:18 > 0:40:21- Do you feel like a princess?- Yes.- Ah!

0:40:21 > 0:40:24David has one last surprise in store for his bride-to-be.

0:40:26 > 0:40:27- Ah!- Oh, my God!

0:40:30 > 0:40:32Oh, my God!

0:40:33 > 0:40:36Oh, my God, we're not going to be like on a BLEEP farm or something,

0:40:36 > 0:40:37are we?

0:40:39 > 0:40:40Are you lot scared now?

0:40:40 > 0:40:43- Yeah. We've got to sort ours out now. - Yeah, just a bit.

0:40:43 > 0:40:44This is not traditional, is it?

0:40:44 > 0:40:45ALL: No.

0:40:45 > 0:40:49While Elle's finally realising the lack of control she has

0:40:49 > 0:40:51over her big day,

0:40:51 > 0:40:55David, well, David feels much the same way!

0:40:55 > 0:40:57He's completely relying on good weather

0:40:57 > 0:41:00for his hot-air balloon nuptials to take off.

0:41:00 > 0:41:03And with less than 24 hours till the wedding,

0:41:03 > 0:41:06he still hasn't actually stepped foot into his ceremony venue...

0:41:06 > 0:41:08basket...whatever.

0:41:09 > 0:41:11I am worried about it because, the other day

0:41:11 > 0:41:15when we couldn't fly last, the weather seemed all right to me,

0:41:15 > 0:41:18so obviously we need to find out what the limits are.

0:41:19 > 0:41:22So far it's looking good.

0:41:22 > 0:41:23Cheerio!

0:41:23 > 0:41:27So good, in fact, that before David can even climb aboard,

0:41:27 > 0:41:32pilot Gary's taken advantage of the rare good weather and flown off!

0:41:33 > 0:41:36So David chats to the ground crew instead.

0:41:36 > 0:41:37Are you hopeful that we'll fly tomorrow?

0:41:37 > 0:41:39Have you seen the weather?

0:41:39 > 0:41:42The weather's looking quite good for tomorrow afternoon at the moment.

0:41:42 > 0:41:44- Well our balloon flight's scheduled for three o'clock.- Right.

0:41:44 > 0:41:47Gareth mentioned about thermals affecting that.

0:41:47 > 0:41:48Is that the same on a tethered flight?

0:41:48 > 0:41:53It still can, because a thermal can actually pick the balloon up

0:41:53 > 0:41:54and take it up and then chuck it down.

0:41:54 > 0:41:58- Ah, that sounds horrifying.- Yeah.

0:41:58 > 0:41:59Feel scared to go up in it?

0:41:59 > 0:42:02I'm scared about the crashing to the ground bit!

0:42:02 > 0:42:04Yeah, perhaps best you don't mention that to Elle.

0:42:07 > 0:42:11The big day has finally arrived, and a nervous Elle

0:42:11 > 0:42:14is getting ready with her eight bridesmaids.

0:42:14 > 0:42:15Do you not feel scared?

0:42:15 > 0:42:18- We're not getting married. - That's you.

0:42:18 > 0:42:19I just went upstairs and said,

0:42:19 > 0:42:21"All I can see is hairspray and big knickers."

0:42:21 > 0:42:23SHE LAUGHS

0:42:23 > 0:42:26Meanwhile, Elle's mind is on other things.

0:42:27 > 0:42:30I'm just more worried about what you've got to say!

0:42:30 > 0:42:31What you've got to say?

0:42:31 > 0:42:34Yeah, I don't know what you have to say when you say your vows.

0:42:34 > 0:42:36They tell you, don't they? You repeat what they say.

0:42:36 > 0:42:38Yeah, but do you say I do or I will?

0:42:38 > 0:42:39- They'll tell you.- I will.

0:42:39 > 0:42:42- I will.- I do.- I will.

0:42:42 > 0:42:44- I'll do it.- I'll do it!

0:42:44 > 0:42:46As long as it's not, "I don't."

0:42:47 > 0:42:48Over at the venue...

0:42:48 > 0:42:52All the rubbish needs to be picked up and put somewhere.

0:42:52 > 0:42:56..David, together with the boys, is putting his own finishing touches to

0:42:56 > 0:43:00the Mad Hatter's tea party, New Age hippy, rural,

0:43:00 > 0:43:051950s...and '40s, casino, circus-themed wedding!

0:43:07 > 0:43:10I'm feeling good. I just want to get everything to a right stage

0:43:10 > 0:43:13and I'm panicking that we don't have enough hands to get it done at the moment.

0:43:13 > 0:43:15Oh, and the hot air balloon's arrived.

0:43:17 > 0:43:20The crew get straight to work preparing a test flight.

0:43:21 > 0:43:22Back at the house,

0:43:22 > 0:43:25an anxious Elle is making slow progress.

0:43:25 > 0:43:26I'm feeling the pressure!

0:43:28 > 0:43:30What time have you guys got to get in your dresses?

0:43:30 > 0:43:31Do you know?

0:43:31 > 0:43:33I don't know, Mum, I don't know anything.

0:43:33 > 0:43:35I can't tell you anything cos I don't know.

0:43:35 > 0:43:37Get out my way!

0:43:37 > 0:43:38OK, I'm moving now.

0:43:38 > 0:43:40You're better off just staying out of it, Mum!

0:43:40 > 0:43:43I can see she's starting to get a bit twitchy,

0:43:43 > 0:43:44so I don't want her having a turn.

0:43:46 > 0:43:48With little over an hour until the wedding,

0:43:48 > 0:43:50the moment of truth has finally arrived

0:43:50 > 0:43:52for David's replacement bridesmaid dresses.

0:43:52 > 0:43:55- Oh! - And this time he's gone Grecian.

0:43:55 > 0:43:57Well, might as well throw in another theme!

0:43:57 > 0:43:58Ah, I love it.

0:43:58 > 0:44:01You look love... Oh, you look like all Greek goddesses.

0:44:01 > 0:44:03Oh, darling.

0:44:03 > 0:44:05- Hugs.- You do, you look beautiful!

0:44:05 > 0:44:07It looks like David's last-minute dress decision

0:44:07 > 0:44:09has Elle's full approval.

0:44:09 > 0:44:10Snaps for the girls.

0:44:10 > 0:44:11Snap, snap, snap!

0:44:11 > 0:44:13ALL CLICK

0:44:13 > 0:44:15- Aw!- I feel like I'm going to cry.

0:44:15 > 0:44:18- ALL: Ah! - Shut up Claire! Get in there!

0:44:18 > 0:44:20Get in there!

0:44:20 > 0:44:24And as eight happy bridesmaids wait downstairs for Elle,

0:44:24 > 0:44:26it's a big moment for mum, Claire,

0:44:26 > 0:44:28who's not yet seen her daughter's dress.

0:44:29 > 0:44:31- ALL:- Ah! - Ah, that's Elle!

0:44:33 > 0:44:35- Oh, Elle, you look lovely!- Thank you.

0:44:35 > 0:44:39- How do you feel?- Snaps. I feel good!

0:44:39 > 0:44:41- You look beautiful.- The shoes! You all right, Claire?

0:44:41 > 0:44:42Yeah.

0:44:42 > 0:44:44Thanks, Mum.

0:44:44 > 0:44:46- That's all right. You look beautiful. - Thank you.

0:44:46 > 0:44:48Yeah.

0:44:48 > 0:44:49Aw, dear.

0:44:49 > 0:44:50- All right, Claire?- Yeah, I am.

0:44:50 > 0:44:53She looks beautiful. Beautiful.

0:44:53 > 0:44:54I'm really proud of her.

0:44:55 > 0:44:58Oh, I feel really stupid now. SHE LAUGHS

0:44:58 > 0:45:00With the girls running to time,

0:45:00 > 0:45:03taxis arrive to whisk the bridesmaids away.

0:45:05 > 0:45:09Back at the venue, David's worst fears are becoming a reality.

0:45:12 > 0:45:15With the wind picking up, the hot-air balloon crew

0:45:15 > 0:45:18are having trouble keeping it steady with the rope tether.

0:45:18 > 0:45:19If we go too high,

0:45:19 > 0:45:21we're going to get more turbulence.

0:45:21 > 0:45:22Yeah.

0:45:22 > 0:45:24And we won't control it.

0:45:24 > 0:45:26This could be a bumpy ride.

0:45:29 > 0:45:31Unless conditions improve,

0:45:31 > 0:45:33David's floating nuptials are hanging in the balance.

0:45:37 > 0:45:41At home, Elle's about to get surprise number two.

0:45:41 > 0:45:44I'm just waiting for something, or someone, to pick me up.

0:45:44 > 0:45:46It's literally a surprise number two.

0:45:48 > 0:45:50- Oh, my God. Mum!- Yeah?

0:45:50 > 0:45:53The cat has BLEEP on the floor in the kitchen.

0:45:55 > 0:45:57Let's hope that's the only unfortunate dropping

0:45:57 > 0:45:59she experiences today.

0:46:01 > 0:46:06- With the bridal car now running 20 minutes late...- Uh! Uh! Uh!

0:46:06 > 0:46:08- I'm coming, I'm coming.- Come on!

0:46:08 > 0:46:11..Elle and her mum think they can hear something coming.

0:46:11 > 0:46:13I'm a bit worried.

0:46:13 > 0:46:15It doesn't sound very well, does it?

0:46:15 > 0:46:17Has it conked out?

0:46:17 > 0:46:18Oh, my God. Is it round there?

0:46:18 > 0:46:21- Yeah.- Yeah, but it keeps breaking down.

0:46:21 > 0:46:23Oh, shit!

0:46:23 > 0:46:26The car that David arranged to pick Elle up

0:46:26 > 0:46:27is having trouble getting started.

0:46:27 > 0:46:29What shall we do?

0:46:29 > 0:46:32I dunno. He looks like he's fixing the engine. Bloody hell.

0:46:32 > 0:46:35- Do you think we're going to get there in time?- I don't think so.

0:46:35 > 0:46:38I hope that's not a portent of things to come.

0:46:38 > 0:46:40- SHE WHISPERS:- Oh, shit.

0:46:40 > 0:46:42Um, what shall we do?

0:46:42 > 0:46:43That's all we need.

0:46:48 > 0:46:50This is not good. Not good.

0:46:50 > 0:46:52With Elle completely stalled,

0:46:52 > 0:46:56the bridesmaids have arrived at the venue.

0:46:56 > 0:46:57Oh, my God!

0:46:57 > 0:46:59And David has a surprise for them.

0:47:01 > 0:47:03A World War II US army truck,

0:47:03 > 0:47:06adding yet another element to his Mad Hatter's, air balloon,

0:47:06 > 0:47:09tea party, hippy, farmyard, 1950s, Grecian wedding!

0:47:14 > 0:47:15Yippee!

0:47:15 > 0:47:17With the bridesmaids safely dispatched,

0:47:17 > 0:47:21David had expected his bride to be close behind!

0:47:21 > 0:47:24So, apparently, now, no-one knows where she is!

0:47:25 > 0:47:28So with time on his hands, he takes to ushering his guests.

0:47:28 > 0:47:31So if you filter all the way round to where those tables are there,

0:47:31 > 0:47:34there'll be a screen for everyone to watch what's going on.

0:47:36 > 0:47:40And, as they wait patiently for the bride's arrival...

0:47:40 > 0:47:43- Shall I get in, Ma?- Yeah.

0:47:43 > 0:47:46..luckily for Elle, mum Claire's partner has come to the rescue.

0:47:46 > 0:47:49We're in Tebb's car because the car broke down.

0:47:49 > 0:47:52The driver who was supposed to take us

0:47:52 > 0:47:55has passed the address on to Tebb, so Tebb knows where we're going.

0:47:56 > 0:47:59But now, she's running late.

0:47:59 > 0:48:01Where the hell are we going?

0:48:01 > 0:48:03It's Old Warden Airfield.

0:48:03 > 0:48:05- I've never been here before. - They do air shows here.

0:48:07 > 0:48:09Pff, I don't like flying.

0:48:11 > 0:48:13Shuttleworth's down here.

0:48:13 > 0:48:15David used to go there.

0:48:15 > 0:48:16- Did he?- Yeah.

0:48:17 > 0:48:19- Whoo!- Very nice, Elle.

0:48:19 > 0:48:22He's obviously wanted to put a bit of a display on for you.

0:48:23 > 0:48:24Mmm.

0:48:27 > 0:48:29Mum, what is that? Mum, what is that?

0:48:29 > 0:48:30Mum, what is that?

0:48:31 > 0:48:33Oh.

0:48:33 > 0:48:34Oh, my God.

0:48:34 > 0:48:36It's a hot-air balloon.

0:48:36 > 0:48:38It's a hot... Yeah, it is.

0:48:40 > 0:48:41I hope you like heights.

0:48:41 > 0:48:44- That is BLEEP terrifying. - Good luck with that, Elle.

0:48:46 > 0:48:49With just seconds to spare,

0:48:49 > 0:48:52David's floating wedding is given the go ahead.

0:48:53 > 0:48:55But will his bride climb aboard?

0:49:07 > 0:49:08Ooh.

0:49:10 > 0:49:12Oh, my God.

0:49:12 > 0:49:14What the BLEEP, Mum!

0:49:17 > 0:49:18Oh, Elle.

0:49:18 > 0:49:20Have I got to jump into that?

0:49:20 > 0:49:23I think you have got to cock your leg over.

0:49:23 > 0:49:25That's terrifying. I'm scared.

0:49:27 > 0:49:29- OK.- All right, come on. - See you later.

0:49:30 > 0:49:32Three weeks away from the love of his life,

0:49:32 > 0:49:36and the moment David's been dreaming of has finally arrived.

0:49:36 > 0:49:37- Foot there.- Hold that. - You all right?

0:49:37 > 0:49:39- What I have got a do? - You stand on there.

0:49:39 > 0:49:41You can put one in there if you want, one in there at a time.

0:49:41 > 0:49:42Aw, my Lord!

0:49:42 > 0:49:44SHE SCREAMS

0:49:47 > 0:49:48Mmm!

0:49:48 > 0:49:50I've missed you so much.

0:49:52 > 0:49:54Ah!

0:49:56 > 0:49:58- I'm shaking.- Surprise!

0:49:58 > 0:49:59We're off!

0:49:59 > 0:50:01Oh! Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah!

0:50:09 > 0:50:10OK, good afternoon.

0:50:10 > 0:50:12Friends on the ground, we are

0:50:12 > 0:50:15gathered to witness the wedding of Elle Hutch...

0:50:15 > 0:50:17HOT AIR GUSHES

0:50:17 > 0:50:19..and David Saunders.

0:50:19 > 0:50:23- I take you, Elle. - I take you, Elle.

0:50:23 > 0:50:26- To be my life's partner. - To be my life's partner.

0:50:26 > 0:50:28I will never leave you.

0:50:28 > 0:50:30HOT AIR GUSHES

0:50:33 > 0:50:34I give you this ring.

0:50:34 > 0:50:35I give you this ring.

0:50:35 > 0:50:38As a symbol of our love and our marriage.

0:50:38 > 0:50:41As a symbol of our love and marriage.

0:50:41 > 0:50:43David and Elle, I now declare you husband and wife.

0:50:43 > 0:50:45ALL CHEER

0:50:51 > 0:50:53I've got to get down now, mate. I've got to get down.

0:50:53 > 0:50:55Yeah, that's all right.

0:50:57 > 0:50:59I've done all right, ain't I?

0:50:59 > 0:51:01Well, I've done all right, coming in this.

0:51:01 > 0:51:03- You've been very brave. - Thank you.

0:51:03 > 0:51:05- You ready? - Yeah.

0:51:07 > 0:51:09- He's a lovely boy. - And Elle's a beautiful girl.

0:51:09 > 0:51:13Yeah. Yeah, he's done her proud today. It's lovely.

0:51:13 > 0:51:14Really lovely.

0:51:16 > 0:51:18I didn't like it, not one bit.

0:51:18 > 0:51:19Scared about the bleach on my hair!

0:51:19 > 0:51:24I could have set fire! I didn't like it.

0:51:28 > 0:51:32So before she changes her mind, it's off to make their marriage legal.

0:51:33 > 0:51:37I loved the hot-air balloon. I thought it was really original.

0:51:37 > 0:51:40It was really cool, like proper unique.

0:51:40 > 0:51:42He told me he was going to go 100 foot.

0:51:42 > 0:51:45But that probably says a lot about men, doesn't it?

0:51:45 > 0:51:48If it was me, I probably would have clouted David as soon as I got in!

0:51:48 > 0:51:51But she kept her calm, didn't she? She was all right.

0:51:52 > 0:51:58Very brave of David, I think, to even attempt to get married in one.

0:51:58 > 0:52:00Well, let's see what the bride and her mum make of David's

0:52:00 > 0:52:03brave, or muddled, reception theme.

0:52:03 > 0:52:05It's not what I was expecting.

0:52:05 > 0:52:07No, it weren't what I was expecting either.

0:52:07 > 0:52:10It's sort of like a tea party theme, isn't it?

0:52:10 > 0:52:12As good a guess as anyone's.

0:52:12 > 0:52:15It's nice, innit? But I am a little bit cold.

0:52:17 > 0:52:19Ah, what's that?

0:52:19 > 0:52:21I like the bunny ears.

0:52:21 > 0:52:23Let's go in, let's go in.

0:52:25 > 0:52:26I'm shocked.

0:52:26 > 0:52:28It's really quirky, isn't it?

0:52:28 > 0:52:31- Yeah! - It's chilly, though.

0:52:31 > 0:52:33I hope that we get some heat in here.

0:52:36 > 0:52:38You like the Alice In Wonderland theme?

0:52:38 > 0:52:40- Yeah. He's done well.- Really cute.

0:52:40 > 0:52:43It's not what you would have expected for a wedding venue,

0:52:43 > 0:52:46- is it, at all, for a theme? - No. No. No.

0:52:46 > 0:52:47It's a mixture, isn't it?

0:52:47 > 0:52:49Yeah. Yeah.

0:52:49 > 0:52:51It's a mixture. It's not what I would have picked.

0:52:51 > 0:52:55I wouldn't have gone for it myself, but having said that...

0:52:55 > 0:52:58I think it does sort of work. Yeah, it is cute.

0:52:58 > 0:52:59Yeah.

0:52:59 > 0:53:03So long as we're not expected to drink wine out of the teapots.

0:53:03 > 0:53:06I just wonder if we're going to have a big old Cheshire Cat come in.

0:53:06 > 0:53:09There's no Cheshire Cat, but the guests are arriving to take

0:53:09 > 0:53:12their seats, if they could find them.

0:53:14 > 0:53:16Did anyone remember the table plan?

0:53:16 > 0:53:19I think you just sit wherever you want!

0:53:19 > 0:53:20Oh, do you? OK.

0:53:22 > 0:53:27Guests sorted and food served, it's time for the party to begin.

0:53:30 > 0:53:33At this point, I'm supposed to offer you some advice.

0:53:33 > 0:53:36Just make sure Elle knows who the boss is.

0:53:36 > 0:53:38But I expect she's already told you that she is.

0:53:40 > 0:53:42Elle and David Saunders.

0:53:42 > 0:53:44ALL: Elle and David.

0:53:48 > 0:53:50Right, here we go.

0:53:50 > 0:53:51Come on, my son.

0:53:51 > 0:53:54So I didn't actually write a speech.

0:53:54 > 0:53:57I don't have that much to say, other than this woman has made me

0:53:57 > 0:53:59the happiest I've ever been in my life.

0:53:59 > 0:54:01My life has changed since the day I met her,

0:54:01 > 0:54:04and I'm sure she'll change every day for the rest of my life.

0:54:04 > 0:54:06I'm going to leave it at that and cheers to everyone,

0:54:06 > 0:54:08thanks for coming.

0:54:13 > 0:54:15Everyone get drunk now!

0:54:15 > 0:54:18- Turn the music up.- Let's get pissed.

0:54:22 > 0:54:25To be honest, I'd rather see the back end of it now.

0:54:26 > 0:54:30It's been three long weeks and I've seen a nice,

0:54:30 > 0:54:32happy smile on David's face again.

0:54:41 > 0:54:43That bloody hot-air balloon.

0:54:43 > 0:54:46That scared me but it was an amazing idea.

0:54:46 > 0:54:48Well, I thought he was quite unorganised.

0:54:48 > 0:54:50I think you've done well with the money as well,

0:54:50 > 0:54:53because I've got an amazing dress and ring

0:54:53 > 0:54:56and the venue's lovely so, yeah, I think he's done well!

0:54:56 > 0:54:59Let's just hope he can keep it up, yeah?

0:54:59 > 0:55:01After today it won't change. I'm going back to the normal way.

0:55:01 > 0:55:04No, you're not. You're not.

0:55:04 > 0:55:06I really, really wanted to prove a point to my mum that

0:55:06 > 0:55:09I wasn't going to be a brat and I think I've succeeded in that.

0:55:09 > 0:55:10I'd say the opposite.

0:55:10 > 0:55:13I think I coped a lot worse than I thought I was going to

0:55:13 > 0:55:15and it has made me realise how much I need her.

0:55:17 > 0:55:19- I'm amazed, actually. - Amazed, yeah.

0:55:19 > 0:55:21- I think that's the word, isn't it? - Yeah.

0:55:21 > 0:55:24I just didn't think he'd be able to pull all this off.

0:55:24 > 0:55:27It's not as structured as some weddings I've been to,

0:55:27 > 0:55:31but then I think that just reflects the pair of 'em, really.

0:55:31 > 0:55:35Riding high on his wedding success, David's already planning his

0:55:35 > 0:55:36next challenge.

0:55:36 > 0:55:38A happy marriage.

0:55:38 > 0:55:40Yeah, we want to buy a house, don't we?

0:55:40 > 0:55:43And then I'm going to knock her up and get a dog at the same time.

0:55:43 > 0:55:45No, I got too much partying to do!

0:55:46 > 0:55:50Next time, the groom who doesn't actually want a wedding...

0:55:50 > 0:55:53It is essentially a piece of theatre for the crowd.

0:55:53 > 0:55:56..plans the biggest day of his bride-to-be's life.

0:55:56 > 0:55:57This is the one!

0:55:57 > 0:56:00But will the steps he's taking to avoid the traditional...

0:56:00 > 0:56:02I don't know many people who

0:56:02 > 0:56:03have had a wedding on top of a car park.

0:56:03 > 0:56:05..have her sprinting for the exit?

0:56:05 > 0:56:08- God, I'm going to kill him. - They're plimsolls, aren't they?

0:56:08 > 0:56:10Can his unconventional dress save the day...

0:56:10 > 0:56:12This is hideous.

0:56:12 > 0:56:14..or has he completely forgotten it's a wedding?

0:56:14 > 0:56:16In here?

0:56:16 > 0:56:23# Would you like to ride in my beautiful balloon?

0:56:23 > 0:56:28# Would you like to ride in my beautiful balloon...? #
