I like this program! See you next week

disappointed Amdub, thought we were all standing together in our dislike for this show.. :mad:

I was wondering would they keep Amy Hubermann for the voiceover .. she did the pilot episode.. But they have managed to find somebody even more irritating..

Amy's former colleague Dawn Bradfield (The Clinic) is doing the voice over this time around.



Can't imagine why anyone would put themselves and their families through the stress of taking part in this programme - even for the free wedding. However, I reckon Mr. D might have been able to do it if I had briefed him enough before hand and if I gave him a picture of the exact dress and the name of the designer etc.

I wonder do the brides give the grooms in this programme a big list of dos & don'ts. It may be possible to have a decent wedding if you had discussed it enough beforehand and then the groom could just book everything accordingly.

yeah, I only caught a few minutes at the beginning and at the end. HE was picking out €170 dresses, while she was looking at a €900 dress. ouch, could end badly. But she ended up wearing that dress (or one very like it.)

caught the photographs and the trip to the Airport Hilton, not in the countryside, but she seemed happy. At least they had the nice Malahide Castle photos, which she seemed to prioritise....

didn't notice the voiceover too much. I liked the p!sstake of the Irish Country Women's programme voiceover.

You'd have to feel sorry for the bride.. She hated the dress, and was very obviously uncomfortable with the whole thing..

I hate Dawn Bradfield's voice on her adverts.. Quinn direct, 11850 etc etc.. but she didnt do a bad job on the narration of this.. much better than Amy Hubermann anyway..

Ardennes1944

wasnt that ron sexsmith song in the end credits?

I take it that the Anon/Hubermann love in is now officially over

I felt sorry for her, she was uncomfortable in the dress. She should have tried to lose some weight.

Omg would you kill your fiancé!!!!!

That is more than a "scrape" on his face!!!!


Poor girl. She is lovely. And so pretty.

PinkFly

most definately the tool.....

why do they put themselve thru it?? stressful!!!

Lady Chatterton

Why don't these brides give their fiancée the name and model no of the dresss they want. When my husband travels abroad with work, I often print off pictures of clothes I want from websites and he goes to the store and he aways comes back with the correct thing.

Thats the thing about the programme the bride has no input they cannot discuss before hand they sign legal agreements!

amdublin

I know!

Or at a minimum her size plus the style she'd like.

amdublin

What hotel is the bride in at the moment?

It's lovely

They could discuss it before they sign the legal agreement. Who would know?

Yeah they can't discuss between signing the legal document and the wedding three weeks later.

But, eh you can make it your business to talk to your fiance at any point before that!!!!

Lady Chatterton

Happy days - Silk Cut Purple !!!

amdublin

I cannot look at that fella and his big scabby face!!!

The poor bride

amdublin

Eugh he is an awful man.

Me don't like him.

Lady Chatterton

I feel so sorry for her, the dress she picked was beautiful but the one he has chosen is really horrible.

Yes it's way too plain.

A veil would help it a bit.

Lady Chatterton

I'm sure he adores her but he is not coming across very well in this programme.

amdublin

Why did he not just buy the blo@dy dresses when they were in the shop.

Good god, talk abut making things hard for himself and then giving out about it as if it is other peoples fault.

Eek! I'm mortified for him. Or the poor girl.

Lady Chatterton

My family are involved in rallying (and the rally crowd are a very tight family) but they have never heard of this guy.

amdublin

A session until 5am!

The night before the wedding :eek:

Lady Chatterton

My heart is breaking for this girl. If she only had half the budget she would have done so much better.

tskk

What Crowne Plaza hotel was the groom in for his stags? It looked lovely.

The dress is so plain but she has a great figure and is very pretty so heres hoping it all comes together!

amdublin

His face

Could his sister or somebody put a bit of coverup on it or something...

The dress is waaaaay too plain.

amdublin

She looks gorgeous though.

Dress is way too plain. He is lucky she is a really stunning girl.

Ah....... I switched off before I saw the trailer for next weeks show! Where is that one based??

How did she manage to have a veil?? I thought the groom said no veil???

He changed his mind and bought a veil in the end! That dress was so plain, she deserved so much better.

pooch90

He came across as a first grade knobjockey!
She seemed lovely and absolutely stunning.
The dress she picked was beautiful. The one he got looked like a table cloth that had been taken in. Bridesmaid dresses were mank too!
I'd batter my OH if he spent the night before our wedding on the batter til 5am!

I wonder does the chap realise how much he's overachieved on this one... She's gorgeous, and he's a tosser... kind of gives you hope really..

He loved rallying but dont think he is directly involved in it.

She quite possibly did. In reality a wannabe I reckon.

It's easy to edit down 50 hours of footage into 10 minutes that'll make someone look awful. Look up Charlie Brooker reality tv on youtube.

You can't edit in something somebody didn't say though. He did come across as a arsehole especially with the whole bridesmaid thing. Fair enough he could have been wound up and we didn't see that but then to stay up till 5am the night before the wedding when you're organising the whole thing spoke volumes for me!

Yup, it's very easy edit that way......particularly when the groom acts like a d1ck multiple times.

amdublin

Hey! Can't believe I forgot to mention this!

What about the Drunken Waiter?!

If he was serving at my hen party I think I'd be more amazed that an actor from Fair City was serving in the restaurant rather than thinking "wow that waiter is drunk".

JonathanAnon

He got a dress size 12, when she's an 8..... The woman in the dress shop is gonna need to get out her rivet gun...

I'm probably gonna get a bit of stick for this, but I think she may have lowered her standards because she has a child.. She REALLY could have done a lot better...

Don't know about that but she was definitely a 9 versus his 2 (i'm being genorous)............she came across as a lovely girl and he was just a very unpleasant individual. If he's like that on t.v. imagine what he's like in private. the way he was speaking to his father was awful, he seems to have real anger management issues.

Also i don't believe for a minute that crap about 'falling' on his face.............i'd say he was pasted by someone who chose not to take bull****. i mean if he's a tosser sober, imagine what he's like with drink.

lol.. I was thinking exactly the same.. His story has a touch of the "I walked in to a door" about it alright.. somebody gave him a box to shut him up.. I wouldnt think the production/editing team did him any favours, but any objective analysis of his behaviour would conclude he's a d1ckhead alright..

pooch90

His face (above the eyebrow) looked like it had been burned as opposed to battered. Arsing about in rally cars? Smashy smashy?
