However, ahead of the big day, a number of problems arise, and there’s friction between Laurel and her father Doug, when she realises he doesn’t want the wedding to go ahead.

Luckily, the patch things up in time for him to walk her down the aisle, but when the big day arrives, they face another problem, as vicar Ben is too hungover to conduct the service.

Harriet is then forced to step in, which is more than a little awkward given her previous romance with Ashley.
