29 year old, wedding planner Kate Mamo from Norfolk is this week’s episode’s first bride. She is tying the knot with partner Jamie Mulhall and has given him, along with another planner, full responsibility of organising her big day. Despite being a control freak, Kate is confident that her husband will create the surprise wedding of her dreams! She has entrusted Jamie to put on a sophisticated and tasteful affair since she does not approve of obvious hotel type weddings. The romantic exchange of personalised vows at the ceremony leaves contender Linda tearful whilst contestant Sarah giggles uncontrollably at the live singer. All the brides are in awe on entering the lavish reception which is beautifully decorated, and bride Kate is proud of her husband’s efforts. The brides are quick to criticise the food, but all in all the wedding turns out a success!

The next to marry, is school administrator Sarah Boyle from Bexleyheath, who has chosen the Marriot Hotel as the wedding venue. She wants to ensure that both she and her guests will be suitably drunk in order to party the night away, without being thrown out of the hotel! Though contestant Kate isn’t impressed by Sarah’s choice of venue, she does have positive things to say about her dress. At dinner, the brides enjoy the starter which is followed by a not so enjoyable main course and desert, but are delighted to see Sarah smile for once, during her husband’s speech! The extrovert is unleashed for the first dance, a medley of tracks like YMCA, a highly entertaining package. The highlight of the evening is when the groom, Brad Shutlar performs his party trick, and strips in front of everyone, leaving bride Linda in utter shock!

Thirdly, we are introduced to Linda Jane Burke from Derry, who is excited about being the centre of attention at her St Patrick’s Day inspired marriage. With a whopping budget of £20,000, Linda and partner Kevin O’Neill are eager not to disappoint. Bride Kate isn’t impressed with Linda’s sober wedding dress and believes it does nothing to flatter her figure. After a rather long service where the brides grow bored, they set off for Linda’s reception party which is a bit of a drive away. Unable to tolerate their rumbling stomachs, the girls make a quick stop for a snack, before continuing on their journey. Everybody is pleasantly surprised upon arriving at Linda’s venue which they think is very classy and stylish. Linda has invited Irish dancers to entertain the guests, who are well received and contestant Kate becomes emotional on watching them. The disco then brings the night to a perfect end.

Our last wedding of the episode is that of laid back, Jill Stevens from Norfolk, and her partner Stephen Wise. Jill is having a very traditional and low key affair and will make sure there is no cheesy music playing. As the bride walks down the aisle, Kate and Sarah think she looks stunning in her dress. The contestants like the personal touch of Jill’s mum being the one to marry her and enjoy the hymn singing during the service. They aren’t however, impressed with the reception venue, claiming it’s too small and badly laid out. Later on in the evening the guests are invited to release Chinese fire lanterns, which, although sound very exciting and unique, prove to be rather dangerous, especially un-impressing Kate. Jill and Stephen’s choreographed first dance goes down a treat with the other brides and they thoroughly enjoy performing it.
