Co Kildare woman and her partner to feature on Don't Tell The Bride

Co Kildare native Jane Tougher and partner Colm Gethings are to feature on TV show Don't Tell The Bride on Monday night.

Retail assistant Jane (26) and kitchen porter Colm (32) met four years ago on a dating site and now live in Carlow town with their two girls – Sophia and Saoirse.

Their first date didn’t go too well – when Jane told Colm he had a really nice body, this groom turned into a shy boy and didn’t say another word for the rest of the date!

Luckily, they met up again and within a few weeks, went on holiday to France together.

Colm popped the question to this lucky bride when she was in the middle of changing a dirty nappy and thankfully she said yes!

The couple has had a recent run of bad luck – Colm lost his job and they had to move in with Jane’s family after losing their home.

However, their luck seems to be changing with a new house, a new job and now they’re getting married!

Jane’s dream is to get married in her local church and have a wedding reception in an elegant stately home, surrounded by trees and beautiful countryside.

Meanwhile Colm is obsessed with all things 1920s, due to his love of the British TV series “Peaky Blinders” – this means gangsters, gambling, throwback 1920s suits and a wedding reception in a race track, with ‘curry chips’ on the menu! And with her background in retail, Jane has all the makings for one fussy bride when it comes to her idea of the perfect wedding dress.

Will Colm pick something that she will be happy with?

Or will his 1920s vision ruin the dress, and possibly the whole day?

The groom with two left feet pulls out all the stops to impress his bride by learning how to perform a 1920s Charleston dance – and suddenly this gangsters paradise is far removed from the bride’s glamorous idea of a country house extravaganza.
