Craig is famed for his extensive dancing background, however, Jonathan is not, with Strictly's Amy Dowdon being drafted in to teach him how to dance ahead of their big day.

"There sort of is pressure for our first dance," admits Craig.

"I did see that Rhumba last year that I liked. It was Johannes and John and I thought they would be perfect for the wedding, but as soon as I mentioned it on television Jonathan has a seizure.

"His head spun round three times and he threw up."
