IT’S not cheap being a bride in 2013.
Compared to their parents’ big day, today’s brides-to-be expect their hen parties to be bigger, wilder and more expensive than ever.
Whether it involves barely-clad butlers or limo drivers and drag queens, this strand introduces some of the folks making a living from this thriving business.
However, beyond the booze and saucy sashes are brides-to-be whose big night means everything.
We meet assorted bridezillas, see women clashing and falling out, and watch hens determined to go out with a bang. Episode one kicks off in Nottingham, where we meet Emily. Can this wild child be mature enough to resist temptation on her last night of freedom – with or without her chief bridesmaid’s help?
