Wedaholic.com: Colin And Justin's Wedding Hell!

Colin McAllister and Justin Ryan's latest foray into television might well have put them off organising their own wedding in the future! The celebrity interior design duo take on the roles of amateur wedding planners for Channel 5's new series "Wedding Belles".

Instead of transforming houses the style gurus were responsible for turning 3 brides wedding dreams into reality! Cameras followed them on their quest to organise 3 different themed weddings on budgets ranging from £7,000 to £25,0000. This will certainly make interesting viewing! Whilst on the one hand the duo are probably a good choice for wedding planners with their vivid imaginations, impeccably good taste, flair for design and meticulous organisational skills, they are also renowned for their inability to stick to budgets and their tendency to go missing in action when a crisis occurs!

Colin and Justin are better known for their interior design skills rather than their wedding planning. This is illustrated during the series by their concern with the design aspects of the wedding such as the choice of fabric being used to cover chairs at one ceremony as opposed to the more important wedding features such as flowers and catering. Colin and Justin inevitably found it hard to keep to the budgets imposed on them and were at times seen to be encouraging the couples to spend beyond their wedding budgets!

In the series Colin and Justin learned the golden rules of wedding planning which are don't leave too much to the last minute, always keep the lines of communication between planner and bride and groom open, always have a contingency plan and most importantly never bother the bride and groom with last-minute hitches!

This series begins on Channel 5 on June 15th at 8pm.
