Big Fat Gypsy Weddings: 1x1

Born to Be Wed

This episode looks at the milestones in a Gypsy girl’s life leading to the biggest day of all – her wedding. From first Holy Communion (described as a ‘dress rehearsal for her wedding day’) to the strict rules of courtship, a hen night and, of course, the spectacular wedding itself, this episode examines the traditions and rules followed by Gypsy and traveller girls in Britain today.
