Don't tell the Bride - Mike and Becky

This is actually one of the only ones I've caught this series. She just seems to fake?! All her facial expressions are false. Eurghghgh.

Also, pay attention to how her family look at her. It's like you can *see* them dying inside.

Love the dress though. Not for me, but she wanted butterflies and girly, and as I've said before, anything that isn't just white/ivory satin tends to get my vote!

See, I didn't like the dress either. But she's obviously dictated to him beforehand what she wanted - no way he'd have designed that on his own. xx

If she says 'couture' once more I may have to hunt her down.

The hair ?

OK I'll edit what I said - I like the dress on her, with normal loose romantic hair. NOT when she's dressed up as some sort of gothic cartoon character. Seems like a manga type outfit. Another show seeming to make a mockery of it all.

Completely agree! No way she wanted girly and then be happy with that hair?!?! The dress is lovely, but to me it's more of a prom dress than a wedding dress. xx

Does anyone actually think the guy in Joker makeup was a real registrar? Or is this another case of a show for the cameras then having to make it legal later?

WTF!

I've had to switch it off - a DTTB first for me! Just couldn't stand to watch anymore.

I was actually wondering the same thing about the registrar - it seemed a very short service for him to be real. And, if he was real, it makes a mockery of the legality, as far as I'm concerned.

I loved the dress but I agree, I think she designed it and told him to pass it off as his! I'm relatively new to DTTB (perhaps seen 4 - 5 episodes) but I am finding it increasingly difficult to believe! In fact I would go as far as to say that I think some of the couples have staged some of the drama by pretending they want completely different things, just so they can get their wedding paid for and who can blame them TBH, since getting engaged a few weeks ago, I have watched quite a few wedding programmes (never bothered b4) and it seems to me they are all more concerned about creating drama and arguments, than about the actual weddings!

Don't really know what to say about that one...

I am so pleased that they co-ordinated a wrist guard to match her dress ?

I thought the dress was amazing and hair was awesome too!

ETA Which surprises me as i HATE butterflies!

... i liked it. ^^; and yeah, i do find it hard to believe they didn't plan it. honestly my own mum has joked we should do that due to how fictitious some of the shows are but this was their 'thing', they loved it and if the tv execs wanna pick up the tab for more eyeballs, let them.

Ok I know Becky from when I wrestled and I can tell you that, that accent she used was totally fake! You can notice her 'slip' a couple of times, where her voice changes to her real one.

You're right about annoying, she's very much the kind of girl that thinks she's a celebrity just because she wrestles in half empty sports halls. Unfortunately her appearance on 'don't tell the bride' has (from the comments on her facebook page) made her worse!! My experience of her was horrible, she looks down her nose at pretty much everyone and if she's not doing that she's throwing filthy looks instead. she's a very stuck up girl, that swans around like she's a diva. She thinks she's a 'high end fashionista' but ironically judging from the fake McQueen clutch she took to her hen do she wouldn't know couture if it slapped her in the face!

What made me sad was when Mike was with his 'friend' in the first venue and the lady asked if they were both wrestlers, Mike then said 'yeah though I'm the only one who looks like a wrestler!' The look on his mates face said it all and having alot of experience backstage I know that this is totally typical. There are no 'friends' in the wrestling buisness, people you think you've been mates with for years will stab you in the back in a second if it benefits them.

Well anyway your right about the 'registrar', the marriage wasn't legal at that point. He's a burlesque host and i think referees for the wrestling company that Mike works for- http://www.facebook.com/benjamin.louche

The dress was ok and the hair looked like Marie Antoinette had been dragged through a hedge backwards! I liked the venue but £4,000? Seriously? The wedding was definately not my cup of tea but then again knowing wrestlers the whole thing was probably concocted to promote the company they work for, I do hope not as that would be a total mockery of marriage, then again thats whether they actually got married for real at all.

I haven't watched the last two episodes now of DTTB- it has all just become so sensationalist. I was watching old episodes on Really at the weekend and the difference between then and now is unbelievable.

I'm only just watching this now on SKy+ - I now find myself doing other stuff while watching - it used to be my absolute guilty pleasure where NO-ONE was to disturb me haha! I've just washed up in a room with no TV while "watching" too.

I'm all for people using their individual style and making it their day but it's not my taste at all...I think she looks fab for a fancy dress party though!

Haha. I am not surprised about all this especially as it appeared she had no friends as none were shown, not even for her 'hen do'. I pre-recorded it + only watched it last night. I fast forwarded some parts about her + actually had to mute her at some ooints because she grated on me.

What has really annoyed me about this series is there being no "normal" wedding. They're all too extreme. It seems the producers are trying to get out of the ordinary weddings to keep viewings up but really, whilst it's good to see these different weddings at times, it's nice to see a girl get exactly what she wants and watch a nice, well thought out wedding where the groom really has made it as special as can be for her!

Oh my god i know what you mean. "its COUTURE" "you're dragging COUTURE" "i can't believe i'm wearing COUTURE"

so frustrating!!! ?

Obviously I don't know them so I have no idea of their relationship/marriage but I wouldn't be surprised if the decision to do it on tv was to help promote the wrestling company. I get the impression that wrestling companies in the UK don't make any money.

They don't make alot of money no, by the time the promoters have paid for the venue, insurance and if the wrestlers are lucky enough to get their fee (which is anything up £40 each depending on experience) there's not alot left, mostly they just break even. Wrestlers buy their own costumes, steroids, gym membership, boots, tanning products and all have normal day jobs, in fact I don't know one UK wrestler who wrestles soley as a career.

Thats part of the reason I got out, I'm unwilling to break my back every weekend for a tenner, my ex boyfriend at the age of 27 had his knees tested and were likened to that of a 75 year old man. Women are treated like whores backstage, 'half time eye candy' as it was once put to me and they do some pretty unsavoury things to stay in favour or just do it because they love the attention.

Anyway I have gone massively off topic! There is some more information on Mike's experience of Don't tell the bride in an interview with Rock and Roll bride magazine.

I watched this last night and found them really irritating. The whole thing seemed fake to me.

After looking at the link skyblue provided I discovered they have a facebook page as a married couple for....i don't know...self promotion of some kind! Odd
