Yeah they all seem like lovely people.

I like the dress but I think a sash around it makes it nicer, draws in the waist. I probably wouldn't go with the colour sash he picked though.

Completely agree. Cream or champagne would've been nice IMO

just cant put my finger on exactly why, wedding in a bog, dreadful attire,nope sorry AM, il get back to you on it...may be just a gut reaction(or over-reaction)

Meangadh

Ah those green tights, come on! I'm all for a bit quirky but they look stupid.

Yeah the whole "budget" thing is fairly non-existent, probably freebies for advertising.

jos28

It would be a boring world if we all had the same taste, I like what they have done and they seem really happy. I laughed at the look that the bride's mother gave at the friend's green tights

I'd love it if there was someone like Dave Lamb (Come Dine With Me) narrating

Quite contrary

Yes, awful.

I really need them to give a breakdown of prices. Can't see how he could have gotten a helicopter, bling dress etc for 10k.

Completely agree. The UK one they discuss the budget all the way through, but the .Irish they don't.

I'd be very suspicious that another person off the street could replicate the wedding for 10k.

My bro in law did their wedding for under 10k but there was stuff separate to the budget that they paid for themselves aka photographer. We bridesmaids had to pay for our own jewellery/shoes/make up.

Everything I'd imagine

Do they let you make your own decisions or is it very scripted ?
Are they very intrusive you your plans ?
Do they make you stick to budget ?
Was it hard to get guests at short notice?
Was it very panicked ?

I hope ye enjoyed it

Is there really "NO" contact between the b&g?
Could you pass messages between them


Which bride was your sister?!

Do they let you make your own decisions or is it very scripted ? Well they decide what venues you are allowed visit same with the wedding shops and the bridesmaids stuff.
Are they very intrusive you your plans? All your plans and ideas are actually asked of you while you are being interviewed for the show, you won't believe how much of a screening process goes into it before you are picked for the show aswell. And my sister only found out she was picked on a tue and they started filming on a fri.
Do they make you stick to budget ? Well my brother in law planned it all so i can't answer this but i do know they couldn't invite as many ppl as they would have liked because of the cost of the hotel.
Was it hard to get guests at short notice? Yes some couldn't make the short notice, you are literally giving out invites 3 days before the wedding, alot of people couldn't make it which is disappointing, some ppl didn't turn up and some made an almighty effort to be there.
Was it very panicked ? the last week was a bit because its doing a lot in such short notice. The amount of filming we did and so little of it makes the final edit then.

No contact what so ever, its even stated in the contract any contact and you forfeit the prize and have to pay back the money. Their mobiles phones were taken off them and they were given spare phones from the crew.

Lisha

It's a great show and I'm a sucker for heartwarming stories so I love it
The uk one is much more budget focused but IMHO the Irish one is more genuine and I really think the couples are mad about each other
The guests would be stressy if say but it's about the marriage at end of day I suppose
Thanks for answering
