00:00:01Is that a necktie?

00:00:03Previously...

00:00:04Yes!

00:00:05And your toe!

00:00:07High-energy Jamie...

00:00:08Doug, this is great. Thank you.

00:00:10...formed an instant bond with this year's big, friendly giant.

00:00:14Dave does have a massive heart.

00:00:17The experts deserve a bloody raise.

00:00:19I'm full of frickin', like, love.

00:00:23But for Katie...

00:00:25I normally go just short for tea. I'm not sure why we got matched.

00:00:29Her worst nightmare came true.

00:00:32Something's up with Tim.

00:00:34Oh, wow!

00:00:36Maybe not that late.

00:00:38I just took that as a bit of rejection.

00:00:41Groom Tim broke the news that he felt no spark.

00:00:44I don't know what I've done wrong.

00:00:47Why this keeps happening.

00:00:53Tonight...

00:00:55Two more spectacular weddings.

00:00:58Will you marry me?

00:01:01Marking.

00:01:03And it's a case of double trouble.

00:01:10Oh, my God! Let's do it!

00:01:12It's really important having my twin sister here today.

00:01:15My husband would absolutely need to get the tick of approval from my sister.

00:01:19But will this groom's vows...

00:01:24...derail the entire wedding day?

00:01:28Wow!

00:01:30And...

00:01:32Oh, really?

00:01:34As our newlyweds bask in their honeymoon glow...

00:01:38He's sighing.

00:01:39Can't stand her.

00:01:40Can't stand her.

00:01:41It's disaster for Lauren...

00:01:42He's leaving.

00:01:44...as Elliot makes a sudden exit.

00:01:47I just think that it's very close-minded and selfish.

00:01:51I don't think there's anything that I can do or say.

00:01:55Same.

00:01:56Let's do it.

00:01:57It's not.

00:02:01I don't think there's anything that I can do with the rest of it.

00:02:02Enjoying the crystal-blue waters of Vanuatu,

00:02:18lovebirds Karina and Paul have dived headfirst

00:02:22into the honeymoon experience.

00:02:24I just feel like we're both walking on like a romantic bubble.

00:02:34Everything that we keep doing day after day just keeps bringing us closer together.

00:02:43It's amazing, really.

00:02:45Fantastic.

00:02:46Ah, I'm living the dream.

00:02:51While Karina and Paul continue to explore their blossoming romance,

00:02:57in the Whitsundays, newlyweds Jamie and Dave have arrived at their honeymoon.

00:03:04Oh no, something bleeped.

00:03:07Ah!

00:03:08Oh no, it's fake tan.

00:03:11Oh my god.

00:03:12It is tan.

00:03:13Ah!

00:03:14Ah!

00:03:15Oh my god, it is too.

00:03:16Oh my god.

00:03:17Ah!

00:03:18Oh my god, I can't be pale!

00:03:20Oh my god.

00:03:21No, no, you're lucky it was on the other side.

00:03:23Ah!

00:03:24Ah!

00:03:25Ah!

00:03:26Ah!

00:03:27Ah!

00:03:28Ah!

00:03:29Ah!

00:03:30Ah!

00:03:31Ah!

00:03:32Ah!

00:03:33Ah!

00:03:34Ah!

00:03:35Ah!

00:03:36Ah!

00:03:37Ah!

00:03:38Ah!

00:03:39Ah!

00:03:40Ah!

00:03:41Ah!

00:03:42Ah.

00:03:43Ah!

00:03:44Ah!

00:03:47Ah!

00:03:48Ah!

00:03:49Ah!

00:03:50Ah!

00:03:51Wow!

00:03:52Absolutely.

00:03:53Oh!

00:03:54finding that as well as the other, you know,

00:03:58checklist that I've got and getting them all to line up.

00:04:03If you've got this long list of criteria

00:04:06and you're very picky and you live inside your head,

00:04:07you rule people out.

00:04:09Married at first size is not a box ticking exercise.

00:04:13So what interests me is that if we match with someone

00:04:17who ticks most of the boxes,

00:04:19would you be prepared to commit to it?

00:04:21Yeah, 100%, yeah.

00:04:23And despite the spark on their wedding day...

00:04:28I'm Lauren. Nice to meet you.

00:04:32..less than 24 hours later,

00:04:34Elliot's doubts about his wife's compatibility crept in.

00:04:38There was definitely things on my non-negotiables, right,

00:04:43that don't line up.

00:04:46As Elliot remains concerned with his match,

00:04:49Lauren is hopeful that today her husband has woken up

00:04:52on the right side of the bed.

00:04:55How are you feeling about married life?

00:04:58Um...

00:05:02I don't know.

00:05:05I don't know why Elliot was grumpy and moody.

00:05:08The morning we were leaving for the honeymoon yesterday,

00:05:10but this morning I'm hoping that he feels a bit better.

00:05:15You know, I want to, like, delve into this experience 100%.

00:05:19Did you cut your beard just for the wedding?

00:05:21No, I always keep the shoes.

00:05:23I like it to feel like sandpaper on my wife's face.

00:05:27So, my plan for the rest of the honeymoon

00:05:29is to just basically have serious conversations

00:05:32and get to know each other.

00:05:34Anything that you would change about married life so far?

00:05:37Apart from the wife?

00:05:38Be serious.

00:05:39I don't know.

00:05:41I'm very set in my ways.

00:05:43But what areas do you think, like, you may need to improve on,

00:05:51like, what you actually are wanting to learn from the experts?

00:05:55Maybe I can give them some advice.

00:05:59Like, there's nothing that I really want to learn.

00:06:03Yeah, that's concerning.

00:06:04Oh, my God.

00:06:05Him saying that gives me the impression

00:06:08he's going to be closed off to any advice.

00:06:10I always think that I know better than experts.

00:06:13Like, always.

00:06:14Mm.

00:06:15Really?

00:06:16Yeah.

00:06:18But I think, you know, there's a lot of opportunities here

00:06:20for him to show me a more mature side.

00:06:25So, hopefully, he can do that.

00:06:26But I guess we'll see.

00:06:28You do a lot of talking.

00:06:29No, I'm really kidding.

00:06:30I'm just teasing you, God.

00:06:33Yeah.

00:06:40In Tasmania,

00:06:48Katie and Tim have finally arrived at their honeymoon.

00:06:56Jeez, wow.

00:06:57Despite Tim's rejection of Katie on their wedding day,

00:07:00he decided to join her on the honeymoon.

00:07:04Last night for me was horrible.

00:07:06He kind of knocked on my door and wanted to chat.

00:07:11He just sat down and said,

00:07:13there's no spark.

00:07:17To be rejected, like,

00:07:19I don't know what I've done wrong.

00:07:24OK.

00:07:25Oh.

00:07:27That's...

00:07:28glass.

00:07:29Ah, wow.

00:07:31I mean, you can enjoy the show,

00:07:33but it's a bit much.

00:07:35The bath is very open.

00:07:40Just know I'm not putting on a show.

00:07:42There's no show from me.

00:07:44I was worried

00:07:46that Katie would be having a bath

00:07:48and I'd have to leave.

00:07:51Thank God for the blinds.

00:07:52That would have been a bit confronting.

00:07:56Like, the spark's still not there.

00:07:59Yeah.

00:08:00And I still don't have that initial attraction with Katie.

00:08:05This is my bed.

00:08:10Handshake on a pillow fort.

00:08:13I think pillow fort might be the way.

00:08:16I'm feeling...

00:08:21I don't know.

00:08:21going on a honeymoon with somebody who's, like...

00:08:28Yeah.

00:08:29Not, like...

00:08:30in.

00:08:32It's a bit weird.

00:08:34Or I'll sleep on the couch.

00:08:36No, no, no, no.

00:08:36It's OK.

00:08:38I need all the body heat I can get.

00:08:44But...

00:08:45even though there was no spark in the beginning for Tim...

00:08:51I don't want to give up.

00:08:52My hopes for the honeymoon with Tim is that we just have fun.

00:09:00Like, we can let our guards down.

00:09:03Don't drink from the bottle.

00:09:06And then let our expectations go and hopefully the spark can grow.

00:09:14Cool.

00:09:15Righto.

00:09:15As Katie remains hopeful for her marriage,

00:09:26a new bride is about to enter the experiment.

00:09:35I'm Afina.

00:09:36I'm 30.

00:09:37I'm from Perth.

00:09:38I'm a single mum and a twin.

00:09:41Are those, like, full-time jobs?

00:09:43Yeah, they are full-time jobs.

00:09:45Especially the twin part.

00:09:46It's a lot of work.

00:09:51You ready?

00:09:51Yes.

00:09:52All right.

00:09:53OK.

00:09:53All right.

00:09:55I feel like for the rest of the world that aren't twins, triplets, whatever,

00:09:58you guys are missing out on something in life.

00:10:00Yeah, from the second I wake up from 5.30am...

00:10:03Yeah.

00:10:04..until late at night, we're on the phone.

00:10:07From the day I was born, I had someone with me.

00:10:09No matter what I do or what she does, we've always been there for each other.

00:10:15It's a bond.

00:10:16A sisterly bond.

00:10:17I feel like my husband would absolutely need to get the tick of approval from my sister.

00:10:23I'm more nervous for a partner.

00:10:25Yeah, yeah.

00:10:27But I feel like he would get it as long as I'm happy.

00:10:31And as long as she sees that he's also going to be a really great father.

00:10:35I met my son's dad when I was 15 years old.

00:10:40We broke up just before I turned 30, so we were together for a really long time.

00:10:45I want you to tell me, if you can, when you started to drift in that relationship.

00:10:52I would say I actually started to drift prior to having our son.

00:10:56And then our son was kind of the glue that held us together.

00:10:59We both stayed for probably our son.

00:11:05I didn't want to break up my family.

00:11:09I was just so scared of the future.

00:11:11I thought if I ended things with him, I'm going to be alone.

00:11:14And I have to do this on my own.

00:11:16And that's scary.

00:11:17It's enough to make anyone stay with someone.

00:11:20It was definitely one of the hardest decisions I've ever had to make.

00:11:24But it's the best thing for me and my son.

00:11:29And so now you dive into this new world where you've got this opportunity to meet different people.

00:11:35Can you tell me some of the traits of a life partner for you?

00:11:39I want someone who encouraged me to grow.

00:11:42For a long time I felt I was just really stagnant. I didn't grow.

00:11:45I was lacking emotionally for so long.

00:11:49So I would love for someone to come in genuinely curious about me, ask me questions, get to know me every day.

00:11:57My perfect husband, besides having brown hair, brown eyes and a kind smile,

00:12:05he's got to have an aura about him that I'm really attracted to.

00:12:09Like, I really love a dominating presence.

00:12:15I would love for the person at the end of the aisle to be close with his family.

00:12:19Because my twin sister and I, we do have that close dynamic where we tell each other everything.

00:12:24So he might struggle to understand our relationship.

00:12:27Especially if they're not a twin.

00:12:30Let me just do a mark, right?

00:12:31Yep, thanks.

00:12:32Marking.

00:12:35Nice and close together, boys.

00:12:39I have a twin brother and I have two identical twin sisters.

00:13:08Would I get a marriage at first sight? I'm in a relationship, so.

00:13:12I'll answer that question.

00:13:13I'll answer that.

00:13:14My name's Adrian. I'm 31. I live in Sydney.

00:13:18What's up, mate?

00:13:19Bravo.

00:13:20Go on, mate.

00:13:22My brother's my best mate, for sure.

00:13:24Everything we've done, we've done together.

00:13:26We speak every single day.

00:13:28You can say we have a special bond.

00:13:29Who's the better looking twin?

00:13:32Me.

00:13:32He'll say him, but I'll say me.

00:13:35But definitely me.

00:13:38I run my own business.

00:13:40I work in e-commerce.

00:13:42I design and sell sports bags.

00:13:45I live a pretty simple life and I'm happy that way.

00:13:49But definitely can get lonely at times.

00:13:52I've been single for four years.

00:13:53Why do you think things haven't worked in the past?

00:13:58I think because of myself.

00:13:59I spent a lot of time by myself in the last three or four years.

00:14:03I just learned self-awareness.

00:14:04For me, my time alone was changing the person I was.

00:14:09Changing the person I see in the mirror that I didn't love.

00:14:11I'm willing to grow every day.

00:14:13So, you know, and sometimes you need to do it with someone.

00:14:16I'm definitely missing something now.

00:14:19I feel like I've done everything I needed to alone.

00:14:21I've travelled alone.

00:14:23I've experienced life alone.

00:14:24But now I do believe it's better with someone by your side.

00:14:27The perfect marriage would be helping each other get better every day.

00:14:33I just want a partner to understand me.

00:14:35Someone that's open to doing life with each other.

00:14:38Someone that's comfortable in their own skin and knows who they are.

00:14:43Loving.

00:14:44Compassionate.

00:14:46And family-orientated.

00:14:49So, Afina and Adrian.

00:14:52If a spark is there from the beginning for these two,

00:14:55I think it can be a very fiery and passionate relationship.

00:14:59Adrian wants someone who's loving and open,

00:15:01which easily describes Afina.

00:15:04His strong presence and confidence

00:15:06is something that Afina is really searching for in a partner.

00:15:10Afina was in her last relationship for 15 years.

00:15:14The stakes are very high.

00:15:16You know, she's a single mum.

00:15:17She's taken a lot of time out away from her child to be here.

00:15:21So, she really wants this relationship to work out.

00:15:25And let's not forget they're both twins.

00:15:28So, the type of very close relationship that each of them holds with their twin

00:15:32will be understood by the other.

00:15:35They're going to be ones to watch.

00:15:36So, with Afina and Adrian matched, it's now time to meet our next groom,

00:15:48who's ready to enter this year's experiment.

00:15:50I think everybody would say I'm a mama's boy, even if I don't want to admit it.

00:16:00Yeah, they would say I'm a mama's boy.

00:16:02Mum's on hot water jobbies.

00:16:03I'm Billy, I'm 31, and I'm from Perth.

00:16:08When Billy was little, do you know what he used to say?

00:16:11To-pa-tee, to-pa-tee.

00:16:13Oh, guys, we don't need to really be letting that one out.

00:16:16It's my first words.

00:16:18Home is where my mum is.

00:16:20She means everything.

00:16:21She is my world.

00:16:23When I was growing up, I didn't really have my dad around,

00:16:24so she's played a very, very important role in my life

00:16:27to keep me on the straight and narrow as much as she can.

00:16:33Oh, thanks for a cup of tea, Mum.

00:16:35My mum's always taught us that as long as we have each other,

00:16:38everything's OK, like, that's all we need.

00:16:41OK, guys, I've got a little gift for you.

00:16:44So this feels like the, um, the right time.

00:16:48Mum, if you could just take the piece of paper off for me.

00:16:55So, Archie, um, guys, I'm getting married,

00:16:58and I'd like you to be my best man.

00:16:59Really? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:17:01Swear it down. Swear it down.

00:17:02Swear it down.

00:17:03It's not it!

00:17:03Swear it down.

00:17:05I love you too.

00:17:06I love you too, mate.

00:17:08So, yeah, I'm going on married at first sight.

00:17:10Billy!

00:17:12Why is it always something with you?

00:17:14Oh!

00:17:16Mother of the groom.

00:17:18Mum?

00:17:19Whee!

00:17:21Sister of the groom.

00:17:22There we go, so, yeah.

00:17:24Marriage means everything to me.

00:17:28You know this is what I want, though.

00:17:30I'm surrounded by people that are in couples,

00:17:33and I'm the one that's missing out.

00:17:35I'm surrounded by everyone in relationships,

00:17:39and they're all happy.

00:17:42My mum and my stepdad have been married for a long time.

00:17:45They have a really, really strong connection.

00:17:48I'd like to have what they have.

00:17:51That's what I'm missing.

00:17:52I'm in a good place in my life.

00:17:53I've got everything that I want except that.

00:17:57Tell me about this small little detail that's missing from your life,

00:18:01this woman who is going to make you oh so happy.

00:18:05I say a best friend.

00:18:08A best friend that's a lover.

00:18:09That's what I'm looking for.

00:18:10Yes, friendship on fire.

00:18:12Yeah, that's a good way of putting it, yeah.

00:18:15My perfect partner would be positive, confident.

00:18:19Yeah, someone that just holds herself well.

00:18:23I want someone who wants a family, wants kids.

00:18:27I want what our family's had.

00:18:29I'm Sierra, I'm 31, and I work in financial planning.

00:18:39I would think that people's first impressions of me

00:18:42are that I'm very outspoken and confident.

00:18:46When the reality is I'm a very nice person that just wants to be loved.

00:18:51Do you think you've ever been in love?

00:18:53I've never been in love before.

00:18:55I don't think I've really, well, I've never had a long-term adult relationship before.

00:18:59So.

00:19:01Why do you think that is?

00:19:03My upbringing was quite tumultuous and it was a broken home.

00:19:07So maybe not feeling like my feelings have been heard or validated in the past.

00:19:14Yeah.

00:19:17How do you think growing up in your family has shaped you

00:19:21in terms of what you're like with relationships now?

00:19:25I've probably got a big fear of abandonment and rejection.

00:19:29Yeah.

00:19:31I know that when I go on first dates I do subconsciously self-sabotage

00:19:37and I guess I worry that the attraction towards me might fade away

00:19:42or something just might go terribly wrong.

00:19:45I get really anxious and I put it on a front and I use humour as a coping mechanism.

00:19:52And I think that's probably a way to protect myself.

00:19:56I mean, it is such an extreme sort of experiment to get you out of your comfort zone.

00:20:01Are you up for that?

00:20:02I am. I'm excited. I think it's something that I need to do.

00:20:07I don't want to stay single at all. I really want to be in a relationship. I always have.

00:20:11I guess I've got an egg timer. I want to have kids.

00:20:15I just want someone that's very caring, funny, family orientated.

00:20:23I just want someone that's going to respect me and love me and treat me well and be kind.

00:20:27I don't want someone that's going to be in a relationship.

00:20:30Billy and Sierra have aligning morals and values.

00:20:33They both put family very high on their priority list.

00:20:37They're both eager to settle down, start a family of their own.

00:20:40I think for Sierra, intimate relationships are very difficult.

00:20:44It's a chance for Sierra to really overcome her natural defence mechanisms

00:20:49that are typically there when she's looking for true love.

00:20:52Sierra and Billy, both very charismatic, very likeable. But the question is,

00:20:57will Sierra be able to let her walls down and allow Billy in?

00:21:05Sierra and Billy and Athena and Adrian have officially been matched

00:21:12and are ready to enter this year's experiment. Coming up...

00:21:17For Athena, could it be love at first sight?

00:21:25You're actually way too hot. Like he's a real knockout.

00:21:29Oh my God! That man would be every female's type.

00:21:32Or will one comment from her new husband derail her big day?

00:21:41And later... Don't get defensive. I'm not trying to like paint you or something.

00:21:45I'm just saying like that's... I feel like you definitely just did.

00:21:48He's just closed off because he didn't get exactly what he wanted.

00:21:52He's so annoying. I can't stand it.

00:21:55Will Elliot do a runner?

00:21:58I know what my values are and if they don't align then back on the ferry.

00:22:15The wedding day for Athena and Adrian is finally here.

00:22:19And arriving to help Athena prepare for her big day is twin sister, Cleo.

00:22:25You look beautiful.

00:22:26I need... Oh my God. I know.

00:22:29I'm excited.

00:22:31My sister was in a relationship for such a long time.

00:22:34So to let another person in is going to be a big thing for her.

00:22:39And you're shiny.

00:22:43Oh! What are you doing?

00:22:45I just want to get a good look.

00:22:46I'm not Mother Teresa.

00:22:48But I'm hoping that they both give this a proper chance

00:22:52to see what could bloom from it.

00:22:53I do think a lot could go wrong but also a lot could go right.

00:22:56I'm not going to be a single girl for much longer.

00:22:59My twin sister and I, we've kind of had each other our whole lives.

00:23:03Literally. Our whole lives.

00:23:05Ready? Ready? One, two, three, four.

00:23:07I don't think it can work like this.

00:23:09We've done so many important milestones together.

00:23:12I'm so happy that she gets to be part of this one.

00:23:14How many twins does it take to open a wine bottle?

00:23:19As Athena and Cleo struggle to get the celebration started,

00:23:24groom Adrian and twin brother James are having a struggle of their own.

00:23:29We actually have a wedding to make, so you might want to figure this out.

00:23:36You might want it to look a bit late.

00:23:39Um, so you both don't know how to do a tie?

00:23:42No, we don't.

00:23:43I got it by just back to front, I think.

00:23:45No, you can take it off and flip it around.

00:23:46I think we need a corkscrew.

00:23:48I think we might almost have it.

00:23:51Ready?

00:23:52Ah!

00:23:53Three hours later, we got there.

00:23:56Three-minute video, three hours later.

00:23:59But, um, I mean, after that YouTube, I think we'll be...

00:24:02I think I'm a professional.

00:24:03So if you've got a tie for the day, let me know.

00:24:05I'll sort you out too.

00:24:07How you feeling?

00:24:08Excited.

00:24:09I'm ready.

00:24:10I'm finally ready to meet her.

00:24:12Cheers to you getting married.

00:24:13I love you.

00:24:14I love you more.

00:24:15I love you more.

00:24:16Let's get you married, bro.

00:24:19Time has come.

00:24:29Oh, this looks so pretty.

00:24:34So cute.

00:24:35It's actually stunning.

00:24:37So exciting.

00:24:40Oh, the fan's coming.

00:24:41Oh.

00:24:42Hi.

00:24:43Hi.

00:24:44Hi.

00:24:45Hello.

00:24:45Hi.

00:24:46Hello.

00:24:46Hi.

00:24:47Hey, how you going?

00:24:54Hello.

00:24:57Yay, look good morning.

00:25:10Can't wait to meet her.

00:25:11I really hope that she's the one, that she's the right person for me.

00:25:17And I'm the right person for her.

00:25:19Yeah, love is just why I'm here.

00:25:22The best thing that can happen is it just feels right.

00:25:27And, you know, we both feel connected.

00:25:30I'm ready.

00:25:31I'm ready.

00:25:31Hello, everyone.

00:25:46Hi, I'm Adrian.

00:25:48You guys know who I am?

00:25:49Yes.

00:25:49I'm good, brother.

00:25:51Thank you, mate.

00:25:56Why do you all look so nervous?

00:25:58I'm the one getting married here.

00:26:01Are you the mum?

00:26:04Yes.

00:26:05Nice to meet you.

00:26:05I'm Adrian.

00:26:06Adrian.

00:26:07OK, cool.

00:26:23I was walking down the aisle and he turned around.

00:26:25I was like, he is 100% her type.

00:26:31I sat down and then I turned my head to the right.

00:26:44I did a double take.

00:26:45I was like, oh my God, they're twins.

00:26:47These are our sisters here, Lady Nicola.

00:26:49Twins as well.

00:26:52Two sets of twins.

00:26:53OK.

00:26:53Yeah, two sets of twins.

00:26:55Right.

00:26:56That is funny.

00:26:58I was so excited.

00:26:59I just think being a twin, you understand twins.

00:27:02And I know that they're going to get along like a house on fire.

00:27:05You're going to be surprised.

00:27:06Yeah.

00:27:08They're twins.

00:27:10Who's the twins?

00:27:11Yeah, that's what I've been.

00:27:13Are you guys identical?

00:27:15I can't tell you.

00:27:15I can't say, yeah, yeah.

00:27:16100%.

00:27:18Yeah, right.

00:27:20Twins on twins.

00:27:21Double trouble.

00:27:22There's so many unknowns, so many unknowns about today, but I know what I want in a life

00:27:32partner and I don't want to settle this time.

00:27:35I don't want to stay in a relationship unless it's who I see the rest of my life with.

00:27:40My husband needs to be this really incredible, amazing man with these incredible core values

00:27:47because my son's the most important person to me in my life.

00:27:50And I'm not just going to introduce anyone to him.

00:27:54I'm hoping that, you know, the right person for me is at the end of that aisle.

00:28:03I'm scared.

00:28:04Who's that?

00:28:14Oh, I'm getting nervous now.

00:28:31Don't be nervous as I'll be nervous.

00:28:32Hello.

00:28:34Hey, how are you going?

00:28:35I'm Adrian.

00:28:35Hi.

00:28:36Nice to meet you.

00:28:38I'm Avena.

00:28:39Nice to meet you.

00:28:42You're actually way too hot.

00:28:43I'm actually not happy.

00:28:46I'm a bit nervous.

00:28:47I'm a little in a weed, actually.

00:28:49I'm in a weed.

00:28:50My husband's so hot.

00:28:53He's too hot.

00:28:54Like, he's a real knockout.

00:28:56Every single woman's going to want my husband.

00:29:00Your sister sort of ruined the surprise.

00:29:02Did she?

00:29:03No.

00:29:06There's two of them.

00:29:06Yeah, thanks.

00:29:07I'm a squealer.

00:29:10Sorry.

00:29:11Your twin brother's how judgy me.

00:29:14This is actually really crazy, though.

00:29:16Oh, my God.

00:29:18I'm actually so, like, taken back.

00:29:20I'm ready to really get married now.

00:29:23Take him.

00:29:24You can have him.

00:29:25I'm happy.

00:29:27I'm intrigued.

00:29:29She's exactly my type.

00:29:30I'm getting married, guys.

00:29:33She was loud.

00:29:34She was bubbly.

00:29:35She's everything I could have asked for.

00:29:39Welcome, everyone, to this incredible once-in-a-lifetime union.

00:29:44We're gathered here today in support of Athena and Adrian,

00:29:49who have chosen to embrace a truly unique journey.

00:29:58Under normal circumstances, I wouldn't have to introduce myself.

00:30:01But hi, I'm Athena.

00:30:05I'm genuinely curious to learn everything about you.

00:30:09I want to know what makes you smile,

00:30:11the passions that set your soul on fire,

00:30:12and the experience that shaped the person standing before me today.

00:30:15Now, because we're only just meeting, I want to share a bit about myself.

00:30:21Firstly, I'm a twin.

00:30:27Family is extremely important to me.

00:30:29I promise to embrace your family as my own,

00:30:32nurturing a home filled with warmth, laughter, and unwavering support,

00:30:35to creating a loving and inclusive environment

00:30:37where everyone feels valued and cherished.

00:30:39I promise to share my true self openly and create a safe space where you can do the same.

00:30:45Lastly, my promise to you, Adrian, is that if there is a genuine spark between us,

00:30:51I will cherish that fire and vowing to never let it burn out.

00:30:54I hope you're ready for all of this, and I hope I'm ready for you.

00:31:00Hearing her vows, you know, the way she spoke, it felt like it came from the heart,

00:31:03and that was the most important thing.

00:31:06She's open. She's open to love.

00:31:07She didn't make too much eye contact, but that's fine. She's nervous.

00:31:12And I think it's cute. I think it's cute that she was nervous.

00:31:15Adrian, your vows.

00:31:17I don't know how I got here, and I definitely don't know how you got here.

00:31:24But what I do know is everything happens for a reason,

00:31:27and there is a reason we are standing right here facing each other.

00:31:31If you haven't noticed, which you have, I'm an identical twin,

00:31:35and so are my sisters.

00:31:37Also, you should know, I'm not a one-man package deal.

00:31:40I do come in a beautiful six-month-old.

00:31:45Aussie Shepherd.

00:31:47Don't worry, I don't have kids.

00:31:53Wow.

00:31:56I'm looking for that old-school love, the love where 30 years goes by,

00:31:59and we still look at each other like the very first time we locked eyes.

00:32:01I'm a little bit taken back by that comment.

00:32:05Like, I'm a mum, and it's the big part of who I am.

00:32:09But now I'm worried it could be the deal-breaker for him.

00:32:12So let's be present, fill our bellies with laughter,

00:32:15mind with memories, and hopefully our hearts with love.

00:32:18I didn't like when he said, don't worry, don't worry, I've got a kid.

00:32:28That kind of made me go, I wasn't worried you had a kid, mate.

00:32:33Like, if you had a kid, great.

00:32:36Great, we on.

00:32:37Now I'm a bit scared to have that conversation.

00:32:43Usually I'm like, you know, what makes me more attractive is I'm this big, beautiful mum.

00:32:47Because that's what I am. I'm a gorgeous mum and I love my son.

00:32:50But now that I'm already this committed and I find him so drop-dead gorgeous, I'm a bit worried.

00:32:55Like, maybe he's not ready for a family just yet.

00:32:57But I don't want to hide any part of who I am.

00:33:01So as much as I'm scared now, now I'm going to have that conversation.

00:33:10Fearful of rejection, bride Sierra is waking up on her wedding day anxious about meeting her new husband.

00:33:29I'm pretty nervous for today.

00:33:35I've just been stressing so much about the wedding.

00:33:40I'm just scared that my future husband will be disappointed when he sees me.

00:33:46I think I'm just scared to be vulnerable and let my guard down.

00:33:50But I've been single for so long and I've never been in love before.

00:33:55I really actually want someone to take the time to get to know me.

00:34:03By her side to help settle Sierra's nerves, our friend Grace and sister Brianna.

00:34:12Oh my god, you look stunning!

00:34:16I feel extremely emotional just to see her start the journey of what could be something really

00:34:24amazing and something that she deserves just brings me an overwhelming amount of joy.

00:34:31I don't want to cry.

00:34:32I make up.

00:34:37I want to cry forward.

00:34:39Because the tears dropped to the floor.

00:34:42Are they happy tears?

00:34:43Yeah, for sure.

00:34:46Definitely.

00:34:47Are you excited?

00:34:49Feels quite real now.

00:34:50I'm here because I want to meet the love of my life.

00:34:56I just hope he's as nervous as I am.

00:35:01I love love all of my life.

00:35:03I've been surrounded by lovely relationships, really the closest people to me.

00:35:08I'd like to have what they have.

00:35:10I've got a lot of love to give.

00:35:13The dream coming out of today is to feel like we can take on the rest of life together.

00:35:18This is all I've been waiting for.

00:35:19I've been waiting to just see my wife.

00:35:22I hope she just has the biggest smile on her face when she sees me.

00:35:27Too bad.

00:35:27Like, obviously, I'm nervous, but my biggest worry is that she's not going to like what she sees.

00:35:33Oh, she'll love what she sees.

00:35:36Got any last-minute advice from a lady that's lived in a very happy marriage for a long time?

00:35:43Yeah, keep your wife happy, for sure.

00:35:45How do you do that?

00:35:47Be nice, kind, show her love, show her affection, think about her feelings.

00:35:55Have I got a notepad? Let me just write this stuff down.

00:35:58Well, I'd tattoo it for you if I could.

00:36:02I hope she likes tattoos.

00:36:03I know.

00:36:13So pretty.

00:36:17Hi.

00:36:20So gorgeous.

00:36:22Oh, here they come.

00:36:23Hello.

00:36:24Hi.

00:36:25Hi.

00:36:26Hello.

00:36:27This is so exciting.

00:36:29I know.

00:36:34Hiya, guys.

00:36:34How's it going?

00:36:35How are you?

00:36:36Hi.

00:36:40I just want to have that person a call, Martin.

00:36:42To, you know, walk hand in hand with your best friend and your lover is what the dream is,

00:36:50I guess.

00:36:51That's the end goal.

00:36:52If that happens, it's like winning the lottery.

00:36:56Woo!

00:36:59Let's get married.

00:37:02Jesus.

00:37:03It's hidden now.

00:37:06Just get you to stay there.

00:37:07Oh, God.

00:37:08Here we go.

00:37:08I've got to stand still.

00:37:09Hey, guys.

00:37:16How are you?

00:37:16Hi.

00:37:17Hi.

00:37:18I'm Billie, by the way.

00:37:19Hi, Billie.

00:37:20Hi, Billie.

00:37:20Nice to meet you all.

00:37:21Now, great.

00:37:22I've just got even more nervous.

00:37:25Great pick.

00:37:26We're all thrilled over here.

00:37:27I think I'm kind of preparing myself for it to be unsuccessful, which is generally what

00:37:38I've done in the past.

00:37:40So that I don't end up hurt, but I want to break this cycle and meet the love of my life.

00:37:48I just really want to experience what it's like to be in love.

00:37:58I want to be with someone that I can create a loving and nurturing family with because I didn't

00:38:05have that growing up.

00:38:09I just hope that my husband has kind eyes and a nice smile.

00:38:14That's going to put my mind at ease when I get to the altar.

00:38:18Now you come to me.

00:38:29Jesus.

00:38:31Just wow.

00:38:32Just wow.

00:38:33And the smile.

00:38:35I said about the smile.

00:38:36I said about the smile and there it was, gleaming.

00:38:40Hello.

00:38:41Hello.

00:38:41How are you going?

00:38:42How are you?

00:38:42I'm Billie.

00:38:43I'm Sierra.

00:38:43Nice to meet you.

00:38:44Nice to meet you.

00:38:45How are you?

00:38:45Good.

00:38:46How are you feeling?

00:38:47Yeah, good, you?

00:38:48Yeah, top of the morning.

00:38:49You look well nice.

00:38:50So do you.

00:38:51The dress is insane.

00:38:54That's fast.

00:38:56Oh, yes!

00:38:59Will you marry me?

00:38:59I guess.

00:39:00I guess.

00:39:01She didn't say yes.

00:39:02She didn't say yes.

00:39:06She said yes.

00:39:07Hey, I heard it.

00:39:09That's all that matters.

00:39:12Yeah, I'm really happy.

00:39:13He's quite attractive.

00:39:15I like the fact that he's obviously got a very good sense of humour.

00:39:17I feel better now.

00:39:18I felt quite comfortable around Billie straight away, so that's a pretty good sign.

00:39:23Good afternoon and welcome family and friends to this union.

00:39:29Sierra and Billie have written some beautiful vows that they would like to share.

00:39:33Billie, would you like to go first?

00:39:34My wife.

00:39:39I'm originally from England, but moved back to Perth to settle down and to find the girl of my dreams.

00:39:44And here you are.

00:39:45Aw.

00:39:47Family is so important to me, and in my life, they do come first.

00:39:52Me and my mum have the best unbreakable relationship, a proper mumma's boy.

00:39:59But my mum is so loving and passionate to all her children and people around her,

00:40:02and I'm sure she's going to give you the love just as much as she loves me.

00:40:08One thing I'm sure of is that you will be welcomed with open arms, so welcome to the family.

00:40:13Going into this marriage, I want to start with honesty.

00:40:18I should tell you, in the past, I've struggled to trust people and open up fully to someone else.

00:40:22This is because a very important person in my life, my biological father,

00:40:26was never really there for me growing up.

00:40:28This has made me keep my walls up in order to protect myself from getting hurt.

00:40:34This has affected my previous relationships, which is why I need the experiment more than ever.

00:40:39I don't want it to affect me going forward.

00:40:40I don't want this to be the reason I end up alone.

00:40:44But I want you to know that I want this experiment to work for us, and I'm going to give you my all.

00:40:48Now, all I want you to do is hold my hands tight, and let's enjoy this ride.

00:40:54I like the fact that he was willing to be open and vulnerable in his vows.

00:40:57That was quite touching, because it makes me want to kind of show him the same respect back.

00:41:03Hello future bestie. That's you.

00:41:11First of all, thank you for showing up.

00:41:18This is definitely a very unconventional way to find a husband.

00:41:21But here we are, and I'm excited to share this experience with you.

00:41:29I have taken a leap of faith on this journey.

00:41:33Because I have been doing life solo for a long time, and have never been in love.

00:41:37I like to think that maybe I've just been patiently waiting for you.

00:41:43God, that's cute.

00:41:46My dream is to build a life with someone, teach and be taught, and finally understand

00:41:51what it feels like to be someone's number one priority.

00:41:53I have a big heart and a lot of love to give, but I can be a tough nut to crack, because I've

00:41:59gone through a lot and have always had to depend on myself.

00:42:02If you are patient, reliable and consistent, you will see that I am like finding a hundred

00:42:06dollar note on the ground, and you'll wonder why no one's picked me up yet.

00:42:10Love that. About yourself. Love that.

00:42:13I'm not the kind of person to do things in halves. When I'm in, I'm in. And I promise you that I am in.

00:42:18I look forward to our future bestie. Let's make it unforgettable.

00:42:21That was awesome. When she said, like, my future bestie, I was like, yes, that is what I want.

00:42:33Please place the ring on Sierra's left hand.

00:42:37She did say that she had never been in love before, but you know, that's about to change.

00:42:43She's been waiting for me.

00:42:44I am delighted to declare Sierra and Billy as husband and wife.

00:42:52Oh my gosh, PG. Sorry.

00:43:03I kind of got caught in the moment, guys. I'm actually not sorry.

00:43:08It was a nice kiss, you know, just soft. That's cool.

00:43:11Sorry to kiss her again.

00:43:12Yeah, come on. I want to kiss her again.

00:43:14It is now time to put your hands together as I present to you all a married couple, Sierra and Billy.

00:43:22The ring on the finger definitely solidifies what we're doing. And it feels good.

00:43:35You look amazing.

00:43:36The sun came out at the perfect moment, didn't it?

00:43:38It did. It did.

00:43:40I'm just more intrigued to find out more about her.

00:43:44Next.

00:43:46It's now time for speeches, everyone.

00:43:48An unexpected bombshell is dropped during the speeches.

00:43:52So, good evening, everyone.

00:43:53Before we move on, can I have a time out?

00:43:56Can I borrow Adrian?

00:43:58That sends Athena's big day into chaos.

00:44:02And later.

00:44:04No one ever said that this was going to be easy.

00:44:06Lauren and Elliot's marriage reaches breaking point.

00:44:10It's done.

00:44:11He's leaving.

00:44:12It's actually fascinating to watch a grown man throwing a tantrum.

00:44:16There's no upside for me.

00:44:19Because it's a huge cop-out.

00:44:28After meeting and marrying at first sight, Sierra and Billy had instant chemistry.

00:44:35And as they settle into the reception,

00:44:37they're keen to start sharing some of the important things in life.

00:44:41Would you like to try something?

00:44:42Yeah, would you like to try some chicken?

00:44:44Oh, come on, let's feed each other.

00:44:45All right.

00:44:45That was a bit of a stingy mouthful, but it's okay.

00:44:52Yeah, I'm hungry here, you know.

00:44:54God, that's a good one, isn't it?

00:44:55Oh, yeah.

00:44:55Yeah, that's a good one.

00:44:56Yeah, that's a good one.

00:44:58Yeah, that's a good one.

00:44:59Yeah.

00:45:00You can't spend your life here too.

00:45:03The vibe between me and Sierra was just good energy.

00:45:05Good energy.

00:45:06Did you find out that Sierra likes dogs?

00:45:08I love dogs.

00:45:10Oh, there you go.

00:45:12Like, you know, seeing the two sides of family and friends just get along,

00:45:17just like, it's exactly what I wanted.

00:45:20So, yeah, we're, I'm very happy.

00:45:23I have a cat though.

00:45:24Oh!

00:45:25Her name's Penny, Penifer Aniston.

00:45:29Penifer, okay.

00:45:31She's the love of my life.

00:45:33Jennifer Aniston used to be the love of mine.

00:45:35Until now.

00:45:38It's obvious she's got a sense of humour.

00:45:40That's so key.

00:45:41Like, I was like Brangelina, we're silly, like Sierra and Billy.

00:45:48Over at the other wedding, Athena and Adrian's friends and family

00:45:52are settling into the reception, ready to welcome the new couple.

00:45:56Nice.

00:45:57Oh, I'm right here.

00:45:58Perfect, super pretty.

00:46:00It's lovely.

00:46:01Fantastic.

00:46:02And Adrian's twin brother, James, wastes no time

00:46:05in getting the lowdown from Athena's sister, Cleo.

00:46:09Are you guys close?

00:46:12We are.

00:46:12Oh, nice.

00:46:13Do you have any other siblings?

00:46:15Uh, yeah, we have a baby sister and a baby brother.

00:46:18Oh, nice, nice.

00:46:19Yeah.

00:46:19You don't have any kids?

00:46:23So is your sister?

00:46:24She got a kid?

00:46:28Um, I don't know.

00:46:33I panicked.

00:46:34You don't know?

00:46:39I didn't know what to say.

00:46:39I didn't want to lie and I also couldn't tell the truth.

00:46:44She's a child?

00:46:45Yeah.

00:46:46I don't know.

00:46:47What have I done?

00:46:48No, it's okay.

00:46:50I don't know with them.

00:46:52It's open to interpretation.

00:46:55Good afternoon, everyone.

00:46:57Welcome.

00:46:58I want to get a round of applause for our newlyweds.

00:47:01So get your hands together as they walk in.

00:47:03Afina and Adrian.

00:47:05I'm feeling really good.

00:47:18Oh, thank you.

00:47:19I had, like, an idea of what today would look like, but I didn't expect to just meet this

00:47:25man and just think, holy crap.

00:47:28Yeah.

00:47:30Now that I've met him, and I have this huge attraction to him, and we haven't really gotten

00:47:35to know one another, I'm a little nervous to have that conversation with him.

00:47:40He's a dog dad and I'm a human mum.

00:47:43I just need to tell him that.

00:47:47Hey.

00:47:48Fifty?

00:47:48Mm-hmm.

00:47:50Yeah, twin?

00:47:52Can I try some?

00:47:53No.

00:47:54Can I have my mouth full?

00:47:55You can have one.

00:47:58I'm not sharing no more.

00:47:59Can we trade?

00:48:00You had some of mine.

00:48:01I know.

00:48:03Do you guys fight?

00:48:04We do.

00:48:04I block her all the time.

00:48:05Yeah?

00:48:06I block him too.

00:48:06She's caught so much shit.

00:48:07We've just been talking about almost irrelevant information.

00:48:11So who wins the fights?

00:48:13Me.

00:48:13And then our siblings, who I love.

00:48:15I've been jumping in.

00:48:17Honestly.

00:48:19And then I feel like there hasn't been an opening.

00:48:21You guys hang out a lot together and do things together?

00:48:24We do.

00:48:24Yeah, we do.

00:48:25We love bakeries.

00:48:26We go for walks.

00:48:27Go for walks.

00:48:29Because of my dogs.

00:48:29So what, you have dogs?

00:48:31Yeah, I've got two sausage dogs.

00:48:33I love them.

00:48:33Yeah, they're true.

00:48:34I'm like, they're my sons.

00:48:39Everyone else is around.

00:48:40There's a lot of noise, outside noise.

00:48:43Who was eating ice cream last night?

00:48:44Me.

00:48:45That's my favourite.

00:48:45Every Sunday and Saturday and Friday.

00:48:48I don't feel like I've chatted to him.

00:48:49It's weird.

00:48:51I don't feel like there's been a moment where we've had a second to breathe and it's been so sad.

00:48:54You haven't had a small chit chat together yet?

00:48:57No.

00:48:58I didn't like to have that conversation with him yet that I was a mum and that really upsetting.

00:49:02The best part about me is being a mum and yet I haven't told my husband yet.

00:49:07I wanted to have that, you know, that conversation sooner rather than later

00:49:11before we kind of go in guns blazing.

00:49:13I kind of want to just tell him now.

00:49:18I want to tell him.

00:49:19I want to tell him now.

00:49:27I'm Adrian.

00:49:31It's now time for speeches, everyone.

00:49:34I'd like to welcome the father and mother of the bride, Russell and Vanessa.

00:49:45Good evening, everyone.

00:49:46I'm Rusty, Afina's stepdad.

00:49:49And I'm Vanessa, Afina's mum.

00:49:52She was my firstborn by 30 minutes, which has seen her naturally take on the lead of being the big sister.

00:49:59V is extremely intelligent, quick-witted and outgoing.

00:50:05V is also a mum herself.

00:50:08And we are so blessed to have a gorgeous grandson.

00:50:14She then?

00:50:16V is an amazing mum and her son is always her priority.

00:50:23I've been a part of the twins' life since they were three years old.

00:50:27If there's one thing I can tell you,

00:50:30meeting the girls and the girl's mum was lovely.

00:50:32Before we move on, can I have a time out?

00:50:35Um, pause, pause, pause, pause, pause.

00:50:39Can I borrow Adrian?

00:50:40Sorry.

00:50:48Sorry.

00:50:48Excuse me.

00:50:49Watch out.

00:50:50I know.

00:51:02V is an amazing mum and her son is always her priority.

00:51:06I've been a part of the twins life since they were three years old

00:51:12Meeting the girls and the girls mom before we move on kind of time out

00:51:20Pause pause pause pause I borrow Adrian

00:51:30Sorry, excuse me

00:51:36Hey, I feel like you're almost blindsided there a little bit and I feel a bit guilty because I just don't feel like there's been the right

00:51:49Like moment

00:51:51And I'm not hiding at all. I think it's the best quality about me, but I'm a mom. Yeah, not for a four-legged kind like

00:51:59And I just like that was very blindsided because it just hasn't been a moment

00:52:02Me to put you aside. Yeah. Yeah, so I just wanted to kind of address that for everyone started, you know

00:52:08Throwing everything out there. I'm gonna be honest with you. Oh

00:52:12Now I feel about that

00:52:14That's okay. Yeah, like again, obviously, I'm not saying anything just yet, but yeah, I don't know

00:52:21That's something you can digest

00:52:24Yeah

00:52:26How do I feel about it? Yeah, it wasn't ideal. It's not ideal. Yeah, if I could have it my way, I'd like to have that first with someone

00:52:42Had I been on the outside world, you know, and I met her and I knew her and I knew she had a kid

00:52:48I wouldn't have entertained it in that sense

00:52:50I loved her a lot of

00:52:52Was your combo okay? Did he take it okay?

00:52:54Uh, I mean he still would obviously digest that. His reaction to my

00:52:59Telling him that I'm a mom took me back a little bit. He didn't seem very

00:53:05Open to the idea

00:53:08It wasn't something that I felt like I wanted or needed to hide. It just hasn't. Yeah, it's my best thing about. Yeah

00:53:14At the end of the day

00:53:16My first thought is whether or not he's going to add value to my son's life

00:53:20So as much as I was nervous to let him know about my child

00:53:25He should be nervous about whether or not he's good enough to ever meet my son

00:53:33How'd you take the New Year's? Hmm?

00:53:35How'd you take that New Year's? Yeah, I'll be honest. Yeah, I don't know

00:53:37It's not ideal. It's definitely combatability. Yeah, it's not ideal, but you know, she's cool

00:53:42I think her family's cool, that in itself, like I think everyone here's having a good time

00:53:46I made the commitment to come in here and that means I was committed committed to whatever challenge was thrown at me

00:53:53Are you feeling okay with the

00:53:55The bit of the bomb that was dropped in the speech?

00:53:58Listen, I'm gonna be honest with you. That's not ideal

00:54:02But again, I'm here for open mind. I'm not fully closed off. So we'll see. Yeah

00:54:07I had to ask that question to Adrian. I love you Lauren

00:54:12Because Adrian is gonna have to adapt

00:54:15There's no moving forward from this if he can't adapt that Athena has a son

00:54:21I'm 100% committed and I'm 100% willing to know be open and vulnerable

00:54:25I'll say that's what I wanted someone so I can't say I want that in someone and not have that myself

00:54:29Yeah, you know, she's got one beautiful boy. She's not got an army

00:54:33Oh my god

00:54:34All right, Lauren

00:54:37No, but like you can take one child under your wing

00:54:40Like one, do you know what I mean?

00:54:41All right

00:54:42All right

00:54:43Yes, of course you can

00:54:45I think it's really great that Adrian is open to the experience

00:54:48I'd like to now invite the bride and groom to their first dance

00:55:01The only way for our relationship to really grow and move forward is if you are open to the possibility

00:55:08of you know, me and my son

00:55:12Where's this confidence here?

00:55:13I definitely feel like there's a real possibility or a potential there

00:55:24And there were some qualities in him that I definitely asked for in a man like his strength his confidence

00:55:31Um, so yeah, I'm hopeful

00:55:38You just look perfect guys, it's beautiful

00:55:43It's the morning after the weddings and Sierra and Billy are waking up to married life for the first time

00:56:07Morning

00:56:08It's a honeymoon day baby

00:56:13Waking up this morning is very surreal

00:56:16Ring on my finger

00:56:18Wife laid in bed next to us

00:56:20And that coffee is actually really nice

00:56:22You built it to be a disaster

00:56:24Well, I like to lower your expectations

00:56:25Yeah, yeah, yeah

00:56:26I feel really good waking up this morning because Billy and I just get along very well and he's fun

00:56:31And it was just really nice to have someone to cuddle with last night

00:56:34I think there's definitely some sexual tension there so maybe when we're on our honeymoon we might consummate the marriage

00:56:50Would you like to do the honours?

00:56:52Sure

00:56:52Oh, this is it

00:56:54Good morning newlyweds an alpine adventure awaits you on the pristine slopes of perisher valley in the snowy mountains

00:57:03Where you can brave the cold or cozy up together in front of a fire

00:57:07Enjoy the experts

00:57:09Well, that sounds nice, but where is that?

00:57:11I don't know

00:57:11I don't know where that is

00:57:12Oh dear

00:57:13Where is it from?

00:57:14Snowy mountains, I think that's in New South Wales somewhere

00:57:16Should we go pack?

00:57:19Yes, let's do it

00:57:20Woohoo!

00:57:21As Sierra and Billy set off for Perisher Valley

00:57:25Newlyweds Afina and Adrian are getting ready for their honeymoon to tropical Fiji

00:57:31How are you going with packing?

00:57:32Yeah, no, it's okay

00:57:35But a lack of sleep has left Afina in desperate need of some facial rejuvenation

00:57:41Waking up this morning, I feel really comfortable

00:57:49We didn't stop talking last night, which was really nice

00:57:54So I'm excited to go to our honeymoon

00:57:58After packing their bags and leaving Sydney behind

00:58:04Afina and Adrian arrive at the tropical honeymoon destination of Fiji

00:58:09Afina!

00:58:12And it's romance and high speeds for the happy couple

00:58:24From a sun-drenched island in the Pacific to the snowy mountains back home

00:58:30We've arrived to our honeymoon destination on the snowy mountains

00:58:35Oh my god

00:58:36Oh wow

00:58:37Oh my god

00:58:37Jesus Christ

00:58:39That is so beautiful

00:58:42Sierra and Billy enjoy the powdery slopes of Perisher Valley

00:58:49In Queensland

00:58:52Elliot remains concerned that his wife Lauren isn't his absolute perfect match

00:58:58How's your mug going?

00:59:03It's finished

00:59:07It's finished

00:59:08Wow, I blinked in it, Scott

00:59:09I feel like

00:59:11I feel like we're not going to be able to make

00:59:12Maybe we're not really right for each other

00:59:17For me, there's certain things that are non-negotiable

00:59:22That's amazing

00:59:23And so tonight, I need to start asking these sort of questions

00:59:28Because I know what my values are

00:59:30Because I know what my values are

00:59:31And if they don't align, then back on the ferry

00:59:36In Queensland, Lauren and Elliot are in the middle of an awkward and uncomfortable dinner

00:59:48As Elliot continues to look for incompatibilities in their marriage

00:59:55Do you want to have kids?

00:59:56I'd like to have one child, not multiple

01:00:02Yeah, right

01:00:03I think probably the number one thing for me

01:00:07Is I really want to have a big family

01:00:09So I want someone that's like family-oriented

01:00:12You know, not someone that has values that run counter to mine

01:00:16I feel like the more kids you have, you need to get a bigger car

01:00:20You can't do as much travel

01:00:21That's like the last thing on my priority list

01:00:25Yeah, okay

01:00:25Like those sort of things, you know, handbags, expensive holidays

01:00:30I never said anything about handbags or expensive holidays

01:00:33I just saw your handbag

01:00:36What has expensive handbags got to do with that?

01:00:39I'm not, don't get defensive

01:00:40Like it's not about, I'm not trying to like paint you or something

01:00:43I'm just saying like that's

01:00:44I feel like you definitely just did

01:00:45There's some superficiality there

01:00:48And like that's of no interest to me

01:00:52You know, handbags, expensive holidays

01:00:55They're in the same category in my opinion

01:00:59Like non-essentials category

01:01:02But why?

01:01:03Because both of them are non-essentials

01:01:09Elliot has actually like been a little bit mean

01:01:11Like he's making generalizations about me

01:01:13It's just very inaccurate representation of me

01:01:17He thinks that I care about materialistic things

01:01:21And he hasn't actually asked what I do value

01:01:23And to be honest, that really scares me

01:01:26Because this is not one of the first times he thinks that he's right

01:01:30We had a conversation this morning where you said that you weren't going to listen to the experts

01:01:35You think you know better than them

01:01:37Were you like being serious or?

01:01:38Yeah about me

01:01:40I know more about me than the experts

01:01:42Yeah

01:01:42Then that's concerning to me

01:01:46Why put your hope and trust into the experts, take three months of work

01:01:50Like you're better off going down to the local pub or the phone box and meeting some rando

01:01:57You should be with someone that's like probably like 40s

01:02:02And that would be a good dynamic

01:02:06In my opinion

01:02:08Yeah

01:02:08And I should be with like

01:02:12A 20 year old

01:02:13Someone who's just young and dumb

01:02:17Yeah

01:02:17And looks pretty

01:02:18No, no, I like intelligence

01:02:20Because I'm a very like selective person

01:02:25I don't know if he's joking or not

01:02:27I wouldn't choose Elliot normally myself

01:02:29But like that's why we're here

01:02:34I came on this experiment to learn about like what we're doing wrong

01:02:39How I can improve and break those old relationship patterns

01:02:46I'm gonna go to the bathroom

01:02:48Yeah, go for it

01:02:50He's just closed off

01:02:52Because he didn't get exactly what he wanted

01:02:57He's so not angry

01:02:58Can't stand it

01:03:07Reeling off the back of their tense dinner last night

01:03:10Elliot has come to an abrupt decision

01:03:14It's things that are important to me

01:03:17That just aren't a match

01:03:19Right?

01:03:20Mm-hmm

01:03:20And this is just a result of that

01:03:24It's also an experiment

01:03:25Like it's not a guaranteed happily ever after

01:03:28We were told right throughout like that it would be challenging

01:03:31And like we've taken two planes, a bus, a ferry to come here

01:03:35Like we could spend the next two days actually just have some fun

01:03:38It's just it's kind of pointless to me

01:03:42It's very frustrating like running away after three days

01:03:46You made a commitment to me and you're

01:03:48I said I would commit as far as they respected my non-negotiables

01:03:53So what are your non-negotiables?

01:03:54Like

01:03:55Well I want someone that's younger than me

01:03:56Mm-hmm

01:03:57I'm like 25

01:03:59Someone wants to have a big family

01:04:01Someone that's ready to exercise like me

01:04:03I want someone that is like not into superficial things

01:04:10You've made an assumption

01:04:11You haven't actually put in any

01:04:13It is like we haven't even had deep conversations

01:04:16Like you really don't know anything about me

01:04:18I don't need you to tell me what I want

01:04:21You know what I mean?

01:04:21Like where there's just there's no upside for me

01:04:37He's leaving

01:04:44You know like this is not a constructive conversation

01:04:48You know what I mean?

01:04:48Like where there's just there's no upside

01:04:51For me

01:04:53Yeah, yeah, yeah

01:04:56All right

01:05:04He's leaving

01:05:12I don't think there's anything that I can do or say

01:05:16So dramatic

01:05:19You are the most inflexible person I've ever met

01:05:21It's a very unattractive trait

01:05:23It doesn't matter how old

01:05:25You're quite passive aggressive

01:05:27Okay

01:05:29It's actually fascinating to watch a grown man

01:05:32Throwing a tantrum because he didn't get exactly what he wanted

01:05:36It's a huge cop-out and it's very disappointing

01:05:39I would love the experts to sit down and explain why they put two people together

01:05:43That had non-negotiables that didn't line up

01:05:46Like why would they do that?

01:05:47Mm-hmm

01:05:48Do you think you gave it a fair shot honestly?

01:05:51I gave it the shot that I said I would based on the match

01:05:57After two days

01:06:00No one ever said that this is going to be easy

01:06:02I mean Robbie

01:06:07No

01:06:11It's done

01:06:11I thought I'd be the difficult one in this

01:06:25I just think that it's very close-minded and selfish

01:06:41Like he's also robbing me of this experience

01:06:44We've left so much behind and like so much preparation has gone into getting here

01:06:48I just really wanted this

01:06:56I know that I can definitely be difficult

01:06:59And I mean Elliot wasn't what I would normally choose

01:07:05But I was still willing to try

01:07:08Like I was so open to breaking like old relationship patterns

01:07:12Learning from the experts what I can do better

01:07:15And finding love

01:07:25So yeah, it's like such a wasted opportunity

01:07:32She's disappointing

01:07:39Tomorrow night

01:07:42The honeymoons are heating up

01:07:44You actually got my boob

01:07:46Last night in the bedroom was good

01:07:48I was intimacy with Paul last night

01:07:52I don't feel like you've had a go since you saw me

01:07:55Katie and Tim reach breaking point

01:07:58I've tried everything else

01:08:00Now this isn't working either

01:08:02This is a disaster

01:08:05Raw honesty causes tension for Afina and Adrian

01:08:09I'm really taken back by that

01:08:11I feel extremely disconnected to you right now

01:08:13I need to help me now

01:08:14This could be a big issue

01:08:17And
