Last week we learned that dreams come true and love is real and reality TV is the way to find your dream lover when Sam Wood, 35, proposed to the girl he selected from among 20-something others on The Bachelor.
Snezana Markoski, 34, accepted his proposal, and now they are planning a “million-dollar wedding” to be aired on a major TV network, according to Woman’s Day.
In exchange for a “six-figure pay cheque”, Sam ‘n’ Snez will give up all rights to a private and intimate wedding for a televised extravaganza.
So what exactly does a TV wedding entail? Well, it kind of takes the spontaneity out of things.
Imagine the stress and excitement of planning a wedding, and then imagine you had to consult a TV producer about every element of the day from venue to guests to the date.
With a whole film crew present, there’s going to be special lighting, director’s instructions and re-takes to get the exact right shot. I wonder how many times they’ll have to say “I do”?
Not to mention the guests: only the prettiest and shiniest will be shown, so no one will get to see Uncle Norm in his suit from 1970, and cousin Dave drunk on the dance-floor will likely be edited out of the final cut.

They want to be careful they don't over expose themselves. They are pretty minor 'celebrities' as it is, if they keep selling every minute of their lives to the mags, people will get sick of them very quickly.
Already there.
Have they sorted out where they are going to live though ... Will Snez abandon her family and uproot her child? Or will Sam take a cut to his business profile in the rather downbeat, post-boom, depressed west?
She is a grown woman - her child and her partner are her primary family. The rest are secondary. How is she abandoning anyone in making her own life? And yes, children can be moved. Your language is dramatic and provocative.
They may be secondary to you but we are talking about a child's extended family - grandparents, aunties, uncles, cousins. They are not an insignificant part of a child's life. How is that 'dramatic and provocative'?
