We all love weddings. Who doesn\u2019t? The breakfast, the ceremony, the drinks, the dinner, the reception, the\u00a0dancing. To be honest, there\u2019s a whole lot to love! Of course the actual planning isn\u2019t quite so carefree and more often than not runs into a number of difficulties along the way. Nothing encapsulates this more than the BBC\u2019s Don\u2019t Tell the Bride, which has just returned to screens and we\u2019d celebrate this return by recalling some of our favourite \u2018just what were they thinking?\u2019 moments.<\/span><\/p>\n

The One Under Water<\/span><\/p>\n

“I don’t even have a quid for the locker…”Lovebirds Ian and Jane met at work, which happens to be the\u00a0local leisure centre. Wanting to recapture that wonderful moment, Ian decides that it makes perfect sense to actually get hitched underwater in the deep end of the pool. Watch in horror as poor Hayley realises her fianc\u00e9 hasn\u2019t quite thought this through as she ruins her makeup, hair and dress by jumping in. And Ian\u2019s new mother-in-law is none too happy at sitting on the side-lines, staring at the water, well aware that vows are being exchanged beneath the surface “I can’t work out where I’ve gone wrong. “There\u2019s something to be said for a man who bets one of the biggest days of his life on red or black. Simon does exactly that, ultimately deciding that a good way to spend his budget of \u00a312,000 is by flying to Las Vegas and paying for a small portion of family and friends to fly out for the wedding\u00a0as well. His fianc\u00e9e Kaleigh unsurprisingly disagrees, at one-point exclaiming that the engagement is off and that she won\u2019t be flying. A quick phone call later and all is (kind of) forgiven, with the family \u2018enjoying\u2019 the day… Minus Kaleigh\u2019s brother who couldn\u2019t be paid for.<\/span><\/p>\n

The One in New York<\/span><\/p>\n

“Mirror, mirror on the wall, am I marrying a fool? “This is probably our favourite because of the way the entire wedding comes about. Juan is put in charge of organising his wedding to Alice and her favourite book just happens to be\u00a0from a film. In fact, she\u2019s got her heart set on one day visiting the statues of the characters in New York\u2019s Central Park. Without thinking too much about it, Juan decides to fly out there with his best man, fully intending to get married next in front of this wonderful park display… Until he sees them in person for the first time and declares them \u2018a bit tacky\u2019. Still, having committed to his plan he then sets about seeing what else New York has to offer, leading to a whole host of enjoyable moments including ordering a\u00a0wedding dress from a seconds store\u00a0and housing his fianc\u00e9e and her friends in a drug den!!!<\/span><\/p>\n

The One with the Island<\/span><\/p>\n

“We aren’t actually married. “This wedding features<\/a> as a wonderful parable for us all. When it comes to your wedding, research, research, research. For a reason known only to himself, David has his heart set on getting married to Rosie on the Isle of Lundy, a place she once nearly drowned, leaving her with a phobia of water for life. Things go from bad to worse for David when he discovers you have to be a resident of the island for seven days to get married there. Ignoring the fact that you only have three weeks to plan the entire wedding on, David triumphantly completes the seven days before discovering both partners have to spend seven days there before the wedding.\u00a0\u00a0With everything already paid for, the duo end up enjoying a fake wedding with their family and friends before confirming everything at the registry office the next day!!<\/span><\/p>\n

Don\u2019t worry we are sure that your Wedding<\/a> is never going to be as extreme as these stories, but careful planning and conversing with each other is the key to a very special day.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
