This real wedding is a bit of a departure from the weddings that I usually feature here on the site, as you’ll not find many of my readers who are prepared to hand all the planning over to their groom, let alone a couple of celebrities!  But that’s what today’s bride Lisa did, as she gave up all control of her big day to Channel 5’s popular Celebrity Wedding Planner series.

.

Step forward celebrity wedding planners Martin Kemp and MC Harvey, and a full TV crew.  You can catch up on the full episode here, but for now, Brides Up North has the exclusive behind the scenes access as we share Lisa and Mark’s big day.

Actor-singer Martin Kemp and MC Harvey team up to take on the wedding arrangements of 31-year-old electrician Mark and his long-suffering fiancée Lisa.  Control freak Mark has already planned ‘his’ wedding, as he calls it, down to the finest detail, including his bride’s dress! He is set on an informal, low-key affair

with a hint of Ibiza.

.

Martin and Harvey have definitely got their work cut out! So with fashion in mind, the boys set out to create a fusion of Balearic glamour and vintage ‘Great Gatsby’ style. They have just three weeks and only £12,000 in the budget. Will the Celebrity Big Brother duo be able to win over this ‘groomzilla’ and his blushing bride, or will it all end in tears?

Lisa says:  Our wedding was a mixture of vintage tea party and Ibiza nightclub, all chosen by the Celebrity Wedding Planners!  I can’t choose one part of the day as my favourite as honestly it was all amazing, and there was so many surprises, I didn’t stop smiling all day.

.

My top tip for any other bride getting married (even under more normal circumstances!) is to relax, everything will be amazing on the day, enjoy every second as it goes so quickly.
