Celebrating the best worst wedding guests on Married At First Sight

It’s a not a wedding of two complete strangers unless there’s a party of weirdos at the reception. Tara Ward reviews the most memorable guests (so far) on Married At First Sight.

There’s nothing better than spending Valentine’s Day watching a Married At First Sight marathon. Forget all that love and flowers bullshit, give me six hours of clumsy kisses and awkward silences as brides and grooms meet for the first time at the altar, their loins firmly girded in the hope of finding The One.

Bless them, Eros, for they are fools, and everything about this show warms the cockles of my cold, dead heart.

Married at First Sight couples entrust a panel of ‘experts’ to find their perfect match — the Kim to their Kanye, the George to their Mildred, the S Club to their 7. If that doesn’t make your palms sweat in dizzy anticipation, each bride and groom comes with a tribe of entertaining weirdoes charmingly referred to as “family and friends”.

Let’s take a slow walk down the aisle of failed hopes and dreams to meet this season’s most memorable wedding guests.

The psychic bridesmaid

If there were an award for Bridesmaid of the Year then Amanda would win, hands down. Hands down the toilet, in fact, because not only did Amanda voluntarily fish a wedding ring out of the loo, she was also ‘slightly telepathic’. This sounds like being ‘slightly pregnant’ or ‘slightly dead’, but who am I to scoff, the woman threw her arm into a public toilet bowl in the name of true love.

Look out Kelvin Cruickshank, there’s a new wizard in town. The groom visited Amanda’s dreams to reveal he was ‘an Aussie bloke’ named Simon. If only Amanda could have foreseen that she’d hate Simon because he was a vertically challenged clown with a bad perm. Slightly paraphrasing, but you get the idea.

Marie is the new television legend of our age. As bride Scarlett vowed to protect her new husband from zombies, her mother sat in the front row, fuming like a blocked chimney over groom Michael’s refusal to make eye contact with her.

“Am I invisible?” she shouted. Nobody replied. Was Marie another of Bridesmaid Amanda’s slightly telepathic projections? It was hard to know, but Marie banged the hate drum until someone caught her beat. “He’s got no manners!” she moaned to the groom’s family. “I was going ‘Oink! Oink!’”

“Neigh! Neigh!’ might have been a better animal impression, Marie, going by this screenshot. (Chillax, Mr Ed. Scarlett didn’t marry you for your gums).

This was alarming news. “You don’t judge someone by their book!” Cheryl’s sister squawked. She raised an important question: just what is Cheryl’s book? Sweaty Legs and Pseudo Sisters?Perhaps Who Invited Her? Or my personal favourite: My Da’s a Bawbag?

Bawbag or no, Married at First Sight is the wedding gift that keeps on giving, the gold-plated ring down the toilet that continues to sparkle beneath the filthiest of waters. Will the magic ever end? Like, my Emma answer is, like, ah, no.

The New Class of Cool, Wearable Labels That Just Might Cost Less Than You Think

Stars—they're just like us! Over the past nine months, glamorously low-key options from new New York–based label Cinq à Sept have been popping up on the talk show and premiere circuit, worn by the sort of A-listers who typically prom dresses london in designer exclusives. There was Jennifer Lawrence at the Seoul premiere of Passengers in a sporty crop top paired with a floaty pink skirt; Jessica Chastain on Ellen in a sheath dress, its straps preslipped to hang just so on the arm; Bella Hadid at the couture shows in Paris in a pair of the brand's super-wide-leg trousers. The truly radical thing: None of those pieces costs more than $500, and each is available to mere mortals at a store where, chances are, you already shop.

Cinq à Sept (French for "five to seven"), a contemporary line conceived by Jane Siskin—the retail visionary behind 7 For All Mankind and the Olsen twins' diffusion line Elizabeth and James—is named for the magic hour when, according to Siskin, "anything seems possible." It debuted at Saks this past June and, from the looks of things, struck gold: The company has projected first-year sales of $85 million and is now carried in 288 stores, including Bergdorf Goodman, Neiman Marcus, and Nordstrom. And it's not alone.

"The big shift in contemporary is that it's becoming far more design led," says Net-a-Porter fashion director Lisa Aiken. For years, "it was the bread and butter for many retailers but didn't really bring new ideas to the table." Now, in addition to Cinq à Sept, the luxury e-com behemoth has picked up a bevy of midpriced international labels that are setting trends rather than following them. These include Self-Portrait, London- based Malaysian designer Han Chong's Instagram-friendly range of guipure lace dresses whose flattering reveal-and-conceal cutouts and sheer overlays are favored by Beyoncé, Kerry Washington, and Chiara Ferragni; as well as the Danish label Ganni, which got a major lift in 2015 from Kate Bosworth, who tagged a photo of herself and pal Helena Christensen twinning in $570 faux-fur bombers as #gannigirls. A search of the hashtag also pulls up Kendall Jenner and Rihanna in Ganni's effortless floral dresses and trophy outerwear. "I think we owe Kate a beer for that one," jokes the label's designer, Ditte Reffstrup.

"I call it 'reverse sticker shock,'" Siskin says of the current wave of designers selling clothes with a mix of desirability and affordability not seen since before the days of street-style stars and digital influencers. Her next words will be music to most shoppers' ears: "We aspire to make a beautiful dress that the customer would expect, based on everything else on the floor, to be $795—and then she turns over the ticket and sees that it's $395."

With competition heating up in a category that, for years, has been chugging along while making few headlines, some contemporary-fashion stalwarts are benefiting, too. "I don't think there is a bigger trend right now than off-the-shoulder," Net-a-Porter's Aiken says, "and the first brand we carried it from was Tibi." That label was founded two decades ago, during the heyday of youthful, fashion-forward companies such as Catherine Malandrino and Daryl K. (Remember them? Designers who made cool clothes you wore everywhere and could actually afford?) Tibi survived to win over Generation Selfie, thanks to founder Amy Smilovic's savvy evolution; these days, her signature bohemianism informs not sweet prints, but exaggerated, color-drenched silhouettes that come alternatively exploded or shrunken. As for the brand's recent rainbow of au moment off-the-shoulder tops, Aiken says: "We sold them out over and over again."

Lottie Ryan's brother Rex to walk her down the aisle at her Italian wedding

Gerry Ryan's daughter Lottie will be given away on her wedding day by her brother Rex, it has been reported.

There will be wedding bells for the 30-year-old DJ, who is the eldest daughter of the late broadcasting legend, and her fiance Fabio Aprile in May.

The notoriously private couple have been dating for over a decade and will tie the knot in Italy in three months time.

Lottie's and her long term love are believed to have opted for a Mediterranean wedding as Dubliner Fabio's family hail from Italy.

The lovebirds are shunning an extravagant showbiz bash for an intimate ceremony with just family and close friends.

Just 40 of the couple's nearest and dearest will join them for their big day abroad, including Lottie's mum Morah and siblings Rex, 26, Bonnie, 23, Elliot, 19, and Babette, 16.

A source told the Sunday World: "It is being held on a Monday, with many of Lottie's family and friends flying out a few days early.

"They are planning to have a big party back in Ireland on their return for their extended family and friends who cannot make it to Italy."

Lottie's actor brother Rex will walk his big sister down the aisle soon after the seventh anniversary of their famous dad Gerry's death.

The 53-year-old was found dead in his Leeson Street apartment in April 2010 after suffering a heart attack.
