South Wales fisherman Harry must plan the perfect wedding for his land-loving fiancee Mel.

South Wales fisherman Harry tries to put his love for the sea into the background while he plans the perfect wedding for his land-loving fiancee Mel.

24-year-old Harry and his 28-year-old fiancee Mel live in a beautiful seaside village called Manorbier on the Pembrokeshire coast in south Wales. Harry is a hard-working fisherman, loves everything about the sea and is drawn to it at any opportunity. Mel is a mobile hairdresser and her world is very different to Harry's. She is self-conscious and always likes to look good for her man. To keep Harry interested, she spends six nights a week at the gym, but although Mel loves her man she doesn't love his job. She hates the sea, is terrified of boats and prefers a classy night out instead of fishing in the early morning. 

So does Harry put his love of the sea before the love of his life? With a bride that finds it hard to trust him, will he get led astray? Can this fisherman really give this land-loving girl the wedding of her dreams?
