Weddings are meant to be a day to celebrate a couple’s love for one another in the company of their friends and family, but unfortunately, for the characters in Emmerdale, the reality is anything but.
In real life, husbands and wives deal with trivial issues like a problem with the cake or perhaps the buffet not meeting expectations, but on ITV’s hit soap, those living in the Yorkshire Dales have to handle far worse.
From surprise deaths, devastating illnesses and even a helicopter crash, it seems a common theme that something dramatic always pops up to spoil the party.
The programme’s latest fiances are about to go down a similar path, with Mandy Dingle’s rose-tinted perception of manipulative Paul Ashdale about to evaporate in front of her very eyes.
It appears that the bride-to-be is about to uncover the shocking reality of what her conman partner is actually like. So, while we wait to find out whether the pair will make it down the aisle, we’re looking back at the history of Emmerdale weddings.
Two weddings in one (2012 Live Episode)
For a live episode, the producers really pulled out all the stops. In a moment of love and affection, Katie Sugden and Declan Macey tied the knot. However, the same can’t be said for Chas Dingle and Dan Spencer, whose special day was destroyed when the bomb was dropped that the bride had intended to run away with Carl King.
