Anyone thinking of getting married would be well advised to watch the programme.
It was utter garbage the way it was presented (sorry Matt), the stopping and interviewing during the service etc, but the way the couple planned the wedding on a shoestring was amazing.
I absolutely loved the way the shop bought cake was customised to look simple but very classy, everything about the actual wedding looked amazing.
I don't see any problem at all hiring a sunbed for a month, works out at about £3.75 each a week, hardly excessive spending to make them feel good for the big day. Ok, they went into a little bit of debt to help pay for it, but they said they would cut back a bit to pay for it, they didn't ask for extra handouts.
The worst thing about the show was Matt constantly asking throughout what they think the public will think about them having a wedding on benefits, throwing a negative slant on it. Insinuating that they were wrong really.
I for one thought it was great, given the chance I reckon the wife could make a go of a business for budget weddings, talented lady the way she managed to make those little baskets etc out of next to nothing.
Good luck to the happy couple.
