00:00Across France are thousands of breathtaking chateaux.
00:06Many fallen into ruin...
00:08Oh, wow!
00:09Oh, gosh!
00:10There will be a stretch of our skills.
00:14...are being restored by brave new owners.
00:18We've started now, so we can't stop.
00:21They're taking on the challenge...
00:25...of saving these forgotten buildings.
00:28It's just the trickiest room to work in.
00:33...creating incredible homes.
00:35Oh, wow!
00:37It works, doesn't it?
00:38It does.
00:39...and businesses.
00:42They'll be successes.
00:44That looks superb.
00:46High five.
00:47...and setbacks.
00:48I'll just watch as the giant hole opens up in our barn.
00:52But with great challenge...
00:54It's just peeling off.
00:55...and I've never had this happen before.
00:58...comes great reward...
01:00It was a complete shell, and now it's becoming a home.
01:05...as they get to live the dream...
01:08Cheers!
01:09...as kings and queens of their very own castle.
01:16Today...
01:17See all the bees coming out?
01:19...one Chatelain has some unwanted guests...
01:22Did you get stumped?
01:23Yeah.
01:24In the eye.
01:24Just in there.
01:26...another couple...
01:27Believe it or not, this was my Christmas present from Paul.
01:31...has a DIY disagreement...
01:34I wasn't too amused.
01:36...and will a third be chateau ready for their first ever wedding.
01:42Let's see what tomorrow brings.
01:44I'll be doing lots of praying tonight.
01:55In Brittany, in northern France...
01:58...is the 19th century Moulin du Cuenon.
02:02Closed over 40 years ago...
02:05...the abandoned water mill towers over two medieval bridges...
02:11...comes with five open plan floors...
02:15...enormous concrete silos...
02:18...and is the second property in France...
02:21...that experienced renovators Donna and Paul have taken on.
02:27This time, though, it's personal.
02:30In the previous project, because of its business orientation...
02:33...I think, well, it wouldn't really quite fit there...
02:35...because it's not what the general public want.
02:38Whereas here, there's nothing really stopping us...
02:39...and I think that freedoms also excites us as well...
02:42...so we can just do whatever we want to do for us...
02:45...and, you know, to hell with everyone else.
02:49Yeah.
02:50So it's going to be very quirky.
02:53No doubt.
02:56Located a few miles south of Mont Saint-Michel...
02:59...Donna and Paul bought the whole property in early 2024...
03:04...for less than £100,000.
03:08And it wasn't long before they felt the full force of nature.
03:13When we purchased the mill, the water was high...
03:16...but we took encouragement from that...
03:17...because it never actually came inside the building.
03:19We thought, OK, we'll probably get away with...
03:21...not doing a great deal of defensive work here...
03:23...but we recently returned from holiday...
03:26...and there was about two feet of water in the basement.
03:28Rather it happened now, isn't it?
03:30Before we actually start fitting it out.
03:37Subsequently, Donna and Paul have turned their attention...
03:40...to the sous-sol, the basement area at the back of the property...
03:45...installing new windows...
03:47...and getting a close-up view of the local wildlife.
03:51Catching sight of a coipu or a ragandale just outside on the tree trunk.
04:01Today they're back...
04:02...and the river is once again playing a part in their plans.
04:12We've got a door to go in this elevation...
04:14...but the lintel is lower than we had anticipated.
04:17And rather than kind of lower the door...
04:18...because we've had the flooding issue before...
04:20...we're now considering whether we move it to the left-hand side...
04:23...which actually has a higher lintel.
04:25But on the upside, I can get the jackhammer out...
04:27...and we can demolish this big lump of concrete here.
04:29It also means they can now brick up the massive hole...
04:34...where the door was going to be.
04:37That is, as soon as Paul's done his demolition.
04:46Upstairs, Donna also has some jackhammering to do...
04:50...but on a smaller scale.
04:53Believe it or not, this was my Christmas present...
04:57...well, one of my Christmas presents from Paul.
05:00As you can imagine, I wasn't too amused at the time...
05:02...when I opened it.
05:03But now I've kind of started doing my walls with it.
05:07It's digging out all of the old grout...
05:09...and concrete and everything else.
05:11It's saving so much of my time.
05:19Removing the loose mortar and grout from the sandstone walls, though...
05:23...proves far easier than Paul's task for the day.
05:30I did a bit more with my miniature jackhammer...
05:34...and got my sandstone wall nearly complete now.
05:38Yeah, and I think we've sorted...
05:40...kind of sorted what we're doing with the door and window...
05:42...in this location, in the basement, in the Soos Hall.
05:45And then that just leaves us with a large lump of concrete...
05:48...which we're working on as a, you know, kind of job...
05:50...and not get that finished and put my feet up.
05:52But it's a hard piece of concrete, so...
05:55I had a feeling it would be.
05:56Yeah, it'll take me slightly longer than I had anticipated...
05:59...to get this out, but, you know...
06:00Everything was made to last in them days.
06:03Watch this space. It won't beat me. I won't get it out, so...
06:06Yeah. I'll just see you in the morning.
06:08Yeah.
06:10It looks like it's going to be a long night ahead...
06:14...for this demolition duo.
06:21Nestled amongst the countryside of Limousin in central France...
06:25...lies the enchanting Chateau de la Gruyère.
06:29Its graceful towers and fairytale turret...
06:34...create the wow factor.
06:36While inside, it boasts twelve bedrooms...
06:40...and two grands salons.
06:43It became home to Sharon, a retired district nurse...
06:47...and Tim, a former construction manager, in 2022...
06:53...when they bought it fully furnished for £500,000.
06:58There's a sense of surrealism living in a chateau.
07:02Every time I go out and I see it, I think, wow, that's amazing.
07:07And I've done it a fair few times now over two and a half years.
07:10But it never loses its power.
07:12There's a sense of unpredictability.
07:14We never know what we're going to find, what we're going to come across.
07:17There's still areas that we haven't seen.
07:19Yes, it is.
07:20It's always exciting, slightly nervous, what we're going to come across.
07:24Yeah.
07:24But it's part of it.
07:29Located 25 miles south-east of Limoges...
07:33...the last time we saw them...
07:36I'm with the gold.
07:38Yeah.
07:39...Tim and Sharon had just completed their first guest room.
07:43Well done.
07:45You did it.
07:45Good job.
07:47...turning a neglected drab space...
07:50...into a floral extravaganza...
07:54...with a matching en suite inside one of the chateau's circular towers.
08:05Today, their first paid booking is just six weeks away...
08:09...and they still have another en suite bedroom to transform.
08:15So I'm on my own today in the chateau working because Tim isn't very well.
08:20He's got an upset stomach.
08:22So today, it's taking the coving down, wallpaper off the walls...
08:25...and removing the skirting boards.
08:28So they're my jobs for today.
08:30Get those done.
08:35Oh, my Lord...
08:46It's insects.
08:48You never know what you're going to find, do you?
08:54Last piece.
08:59and it didn't break okay taking off the wallpaper
09:20my biggest stress is tim because he's um
09:24he's he's so particular and i'm so not particular
09:30tim turns a blind eye to what i'm doing until he has to see it but we couldn't have retired
09:36and done nothing that's why we've taken on this job however skillful her scraping it's slow going
09:45so sharon decides to speed things up with a half mix of vinegar and water
09:54well maybe slightly better
10:00look there we go now we're in business
10:04there's a bit of return for my hard work
10:06it's when you get no return for it you just gotta not mind the smell of vinegar
10:14sharon's made a start but there's a long way to go before it's anywhere near ready for paying guests
10:27still to come i hope we've done enough to please them there are wedding jitters
10:33because you don't want a an upset bride on their wedding day so that nest is absolutely huge and
10:40stinging critters and it is not dormant for us to get them out it's going to be an age of
10:47piece of work
10:54situated amongst the sweeping pastures of southwest france is the impressive chateau daron
11:02a striking property with three and a half acres it boasts 17 rooms and several outbuildings
11:14in 2023 the chateau charmed international fund manager carlton and wife alicia who after living in nine
11:24different countries decided it was the perfect place to put down roots with their three children
11:32you need to have a lot of energy a lot of energy and a positive attitude because there are some
11:39days where you just think why are we doing this i just think it gives you some humility as well
11:44because
11:45we're all capable of rising to every challenge but you do sometimes think oh god i'm useless but
11:51then the next day you manage to solve it so it's so it's an interesting journey
11:58located not far from the pyrenees the couple purchased the chateau for 690 000 pounds
12:08and have recently been getting ready for their first ever wedding reception being held here
12:15for a young local couple we've got to finish the last set of volley shutters and this is a critical
12:22one for the wedding last time we saw them they were sprucing up the tower bathroom suite after the
12:30paints dried i've got some gold strips just to give it a little bit more pizzazz and preparing the
12:37chateau's barn for the reception which the wedding party will decorate but with just a few days to go
12:46there's been a change of plans we had this idea that we were going to live out the rest of
12:54our days here
12:55and then my husband got a job offer that um was basically too good to miss but it means the
13:06whole
13:06family relocating 10 000 miles away to fiji so while carlton and the children have gone ahead
13:15alicia has stayed behind to ensure the chateau's wedding ready the moment we've been sort of working
13:23towards it's a very bittersweet moment because this is the the first wedding and potentially the last
13:37top of alicia's long list of jobs to complete is the tower bathroom so these were really old units
13:46that came with the house the doors have been upcycled i decided against the gold trim so now i'm just
13:56putting
13:56the doors back on the wedding party arrive in two days time they're going to stay here for three nights
14:04and so this is final finishing touches
14:10there we go not too bad it looks better than it did before not perfect but not too bad
14:22next alicia needs to finish off one of their biggest jobs transforming the chateau's ancient barn
14:29which has just been used for storage but is now a rustic blank canvas ready to be turned into the
14:38perfect party space once alicia has tidied up the three meter high tool backdrop there's patchy areas
14:49so i'm just trying to even it all out so that it sits well
14:55i really wish carlton and the kids were able to be here because everybody's done their little bit
15:01and it's a shame that they don't get to see the end i hope we've done enough to please them
15:08because
15:08you don't want a an upset bride on their wedding day i'm more excited than nervous but i think a
15:15little
15:15bit of a bit of nerves is healthy i'm pretty happy with that i think it looks nice and even
15:24it covers
15:25what it's meant to cover and it has a nice wedding feel to it so i'm really really happy i
15:32think job done
15:35but with the wedding party on their way alicia can only hope everything goes without a hitch
15:52500 miles away in brittany donna and paul have been busy in their basement the lump of concrete has been
16:00demolished and the couple have fitted new windows and a door above the flood line their workload though
16:08has just got bigger we're on the piece of land at the back of the property the task for today
16:15is to
16:15block up this opening there's also a crack a couple of feet to the the right and we kind of
16:22feel that
16:23we might as well kind of take that opening to that crack i'll probably demolish the wall done i'll be
16:31mixing up some water in the interim and then i'll be laying the block with my young assistant here
16:40as they're hoping to transform the basement into a swimming pool
16:45ensuring everything is watertight is critical but first paul needs to get the big guns out
16:54and then i'll try to pull it holes
17:19once paul's demolished the cracked concrete on the side
17:25it's time for a bit of landscaping
17:31we're trying to stabilize this area a bit more so we're we're using all the rubble to do that
17:38with the river just meters away they'll need to lay a new concrete base for the wall
17:45so we'll clear this out see what's loose if it's loose we're just going to remove it there's no point
17:49building a new wall and a poor foundation
17:52so all right what we've done we've just taken off all the loose mortar and stone and then we put
18:11a
18:12shutter on the outside we've also put in some bars just to add a bit of a key for the
18:16small foundation
18:17that we're going to build donna's going to mix up some concrete and then we're just going to try and
18:22level that so we've got a level platform to start our block work you want this quite thick here yeah
18:28i
18:28don't want it too wet
18:40this particular job may have just begun but the couple have achieved an extraordinary amount
18:46since they bought the property just over a year ago the soosal when we first arrived was a pretty
18:54awful place now with all of the windows and the door it's a wonderful place to be i could happily
19:00get a deck chair out there and sit and just enjoy the river you know no you can't
19:15we've got the kind of foundation done for the the new walls so we'll let that go off and then
19:20we can
19:20get some mortar on it and then start with the block work it's a good start but there's still
19:26a long way to go before the sousols sorted in limousin sharon and tim are racing to finish the
19:41bedroom and bathroom of their last guest suite before their first booking arrives unfortunately
19:49we've had a turnaround today um i'm better from yesterday and now sharon is laid in bed not feeling
19:55so good today so we'll start taking the bathroom out today but also there's an urgent job he needs
20:04to deal with in the bedroom anyway all right yeah good thank you armed with special equipment the
20:13local chimney sweep's been called to investigate whether they have a live bees nest
20:22and first he needs to check whether it's blocking the chateau's main chimney
20:29yeah that's come right through mate it's good news but there's still a nasty surprise waiting
20:38see all the bees coming out there we go do you get stung yeah in the eye yeah i'm just
20:44in there
20:47so you think there's obviously a nest in there then till we get the camera up we don't know
20:55and it doesn't take long to spot it
20:59see there's the top of the chimney see that white dot there yeah what i can see i think is
21:04movement
21:05at the very very very top near the light that's the nest there you go oh look at them all
21:12look at
21:12them all can you see them so that nest is absolutely huge yeah and it is not dormant no the
21:20simplest way
21:21to stop them coming down is you get yourself a chimney sheep yeah so it's a chimney this cushion
21:28that goes up your chimney and nothing comes down
21:34they've been there longer than we've been here so they've probably more entitled to being in the
21:39chateau than we are for us to get them out fully and probably safely and be able to give them
21:44somewhere
21:45else is going to be a major major major piece of work which we're not in a position to do
21:50i don't
21:50think the bees have kept him busy today and with a plan in place to safely quell the buzz around
21:58the
21:58bedroom the work on their last guest suite can continue
22:07still to come at alicia and carlton's i cannot wait to see what the bar is going to look like
22:14wedding preparations are in full flow
22:20and tim's next project building things is fun confirms what buying a chateau
22:26is all about it's like being a kid again
22:36in south west france at alicia and carlton's the chateau is buzzing with activity the wedding party
22:44have arrived earlier than planned and they're in full swing um setting up the bar so i'm just going to
22:51try
22:51and not disturb them too much but get on and finish the last things that i have to do
22:57there's still a lot to prepare and the clock is ticking to get the place looking its best
23:02before the bride and groom arrive so this magnolia tree as much as i love her she drops leaves all
23:12year
23:19around
23:19getting there and you bet you anything a big gust of wind will come
23:26and blow a ton more down because that's normally what happens
23:33but elsewhere it is roots not leaves that are causing headaches the mother of the bride wanted to plant
23:41her own flowers into the pots but she can't get them deep enough
23:48um because the roots are still there and they're in there solid
23:54so it's up to alicia to roll up her sleeves
24:01so we've got the roots out
24:06while the mother of the bride gets busy planting
24:10alicia swaps her gardening gloves for housekeeping duties
24:20everything's done yeah i'm happy
24:30it's taken weeks of work but the chateau is finally wedding ready
24:37the uninspiring tower bathroom now revamped with a bold modern look
24:46the gold flecks of the new floor tiles complementing the dramatic wallpaper
24:53while the tired vanity unit is now fit for a bride
24:58outside outside the grounds have been swept clean and the chateau's shutters given a fresh lick of paint
25:07the whole house fully prepared for a fairy tale wedding
25:20and the bride and groom marie and loic are utterly delighted
25:26for this for the challenge it is perfect
25:29to do the washers look at the other room
25:30no I don't see
25:32no
25:33no
25:36this room is just renovated
25:42yes it is just renovated
25:43yes it is all new
25:43yes it is all new
25:47you have extremely well renovated
25:49lucia
25:50thank you
25:51the painting on the left
25:53Yes, I know it's fine.
25:56It's a good taste.
25:58It's a cycle of recycling.
26:07It's very good.
26:09It's great.
26:10With the view.
26:12It's beautiful.
26:13It's one of the places I prefer.
26:16It's great.
26:17It's beautiful, we love it.
26:19We're a lot of chance to do it here.
26:33the moment I've been waiting for for such a long time the couple are in I've shown them the house
26:40they're happy with the space let's see what tomorrow brings I'll be doing lots of praying
26:48tonight with the final touches in place and guests beginning to gather Chateau Daron is almost set for
26:58the big day itself back in central France at Sharon and Tim's now the chimney is safely blocked the
27:11bedroom is free of bees and the couple are fighting fit they can crack on preparing for
27:18their first paying guests today we're carrying on with the bedroom because those guests are probably
27:26packing their cases I like each room to have something different for this particular room I
27:31think it's really nice to have a window seat so that's going to be its feature is a lovely window
27:35seats got such a nice view we've got timber that we've taken down from different areas that are
27:40going to reuse for this because it's all going to be hidden away and as long as the timbers good
27:44doesn't matter it's got paint or not it's it's usable and we like to reuse things in this place if
27:50we
27:50can I love doing what I do in the in the Chateau because I loved I love to do if
28:01if nobody sees what
28:03I've done I've done a good job if I come through and bring everything up nice and level and straight
28:11at the end when you come to put the finishes to it it works it's nice it fits
28:26Tim is also planning to redo some of the electrics so he's asked Sharon and her sister Cheryl to help
28:34by feeding three cables through a seven meter long pipe or conduit he's already threaded a thin metal wire
28:45through all Sharon and Cheryl need to do is make sure all three cables are firmly attached to it and
28:55pull ready okay Tim and myself did this once and I merrily yanked the whole thing through and we were
29:08like half a meter to the end and it snapped because I pulled it too much we had tea in
29:14silence that day
29:18it's quite difficult actually
29:31is it nearly at the end no it's longer than you think in it
29:40stay there I can't because you couldn't pull it too tight
29:44don't want it to snap
29:47um I'd hate to lose it right at the end
29:53that's enough yay yay
29:59you got it all yep
30:02I don't want this job though I should have mecked it up so I don't get given it again
30:06but it's another of the guest suite's tasks wound up
30:15that's it
30:17and Tim hasn't exactly been sitting down on the job either
30:22it's uh it's a very enjoyable thing it's sort of one of those things that you go back to when
30:27you're
30:27a child to build things and I think that's why bill people or all my mates stay in the building
30:33industries because building things is fun and it's like being a kid again
30:39I think it adds a nice little touch of interest don't you it's not just a route with a bed
30:44and a
30:44wardrobe it's got a fireplace now it's got a lovely little window seat I think it's a really nice touch
30:49going to try it I will if I may
30:57nice
30:57I can see you laid there with your dress on and your glass of rose
31:02yeah it's very nice
31:05good job
31:06yeah good job
31:09Sharon and Tim have the foundations of a window seat
31:12for their guest suite
31:14now the decorating can begin
31:28at Moulin du Quinon Donna and Paul are beginning some basement block work
31:35the concrete gone off it's not permanently set but it'll help me get a bond with a mortar so
31:41I'm going to crack on and get the first course laid
32:01ahead
32:01are they laying ok yeah it's just the first course is trying to get it in situ this area more
32:09or less disappears in the winter when the water is extremely high but you know
32:14that the plan is to make more use of this area so you know we'll even in the
32:18winter we'll be able to sit out on the various balconies or on the terrace
32:22above and still appreciate our surroundings
32:26all right you could go back and fill these for me huh yeah
32:37heavy to move about on the yes but Paul's backache will be worth it as these solid 20 kilo blocks
32:48may have to withstand the full force of a flood so hopefully irrespective of whatever height the
32:57water goes we won't get any ingress if the river does flood again Paul's new dam shouldn't be busted
33:13so that's the first course done I'm just going to drill some reinforcement and of the structure
33:18and then that'll act as a tie into the block work once they're embedded in the mortar the metal ties
33:26will strengthen the join between the old and new wall don't have it me but these blocks seem to be
33:45getting heavier every time I lift one up it's a job though that needs to be done sooner rather than
33:52later
33:52the kind of time pressure on this it's for the renderer to come he's due to come in about 8
34:00to 10
34:00weeks time and we have to have this wall all built and water sealed ready and there's various other bits
34:08of repairs and that we need to do ready for him to make it all beautiful
34:32it's looking good is that you done job today yeah I think that's me done I don't want to put
34:37too many
34:37courses on otherwise the mortar will just yeah squeeze out they're heavy bricks so yeah we've got
34:42a good start it hasn't been a bad place to work today is it no it's been fine it's always
34:48a nice
34:48day when I'm working beside you oh you sweetie a few more days hard work the wall is built a
35:02new window
35:02has been fitted and as soon as Paul has finished pointing it'll be time for the next stage can't
35:11wait to see this rendered it'll be kind of a beige creamy color which is it's just going to transform
35:19it isn't it it's just going to want to look wonderful and make the gray windows really pop
35:26good as forget if I keep playing with it I'll fall out there's a lot more work to do at
35:31the back but
35:32what they have done in a year is extraordinary what was once a solid concrete silo now has a magnificent
35:4680 square meter roof terrace the reinforced walls studded with 18 windows the interior flooded with
35:57light for the first time in its history but Donna and Paul can't rest on their laurels just yet at
36:06least we're ready to get the sills and things like that on and finish the balcony and do the terrace
36:12um put the slate tops on and all right I get it I get it I mean let's go and
36:19do one of these five
36:20tasks in yeah one for now though Donna and Paul can consider their work here in the sous-sol a
36:31job well
36:32started still to come I just do the donkey work and Cheryl will make the choices that's not entirely true
36:42I do ask your opinion Tim and Sharon agree but I normally go with my gut to disagree
36:51and the big day has arrived at Alicia and Carlton's
37:02in central France at chateau de la griere Sharon and Tim have a decorating deadline to get their guest
37:13suite ready for their first paid booking I brought a bed a week ago and I'd like to get the
37:20headboard
37:20into the room because I've got some wallpaper samples on the wall and I want to see what
37:24they're going to look like together I just do the donkey work and Cheryl will make the choices that's
37:29not entirely true I do ask your opinion and sometimes you make me think twice but I normally go with
37:37my
37:37gut any one of them stand out for you the green one isn't the right one yeah okay yeah I
37:45agree but I'm
37:46not sure about all the others I think out of all those in in the process of elimination they're
37:51pastels they're nice they're gentle that's going to say it's a soft feel and it's what I want it's
37:56got a calm feel to it it's got calm it's you've got it's south face it's got the light so
38:00okay so
38:01can we sign that one off I think we can yeah good job one job done one decision made well
38:07done yeah
38:16wallpaper chosen Sharon has another decorative project in mind this mirror was in the bedroom
38:24that we're doing now so it was already in there and I do like to keep a piece and work
38:28around it
38:29and I'm going to paint it and then I'm gonna maybe put some other contrasting color on it and just
38:37see
38:37how it looks really it's a subtle color it's quite muted and I think that will go nicely a
38:46calm feel to it with the bedroom with the nice sunlight coming through I don't want anything too gaudy too
38:54bright I like to do a bit of art I like to upcycle things I'm not sure I'm any good
39:03at it but I like the
39:05opportunity to show off my artistic streak I've got these lovely ornate pieces attached on the front
39:14so I'm going to think what sort of color can I put on this maybe a gold to lift the
39:19mirror bring it to
39:20life that's it once dry Sharon can add some chateau sparkle I like the mirror as it is and
39:34I think for the bedroom it might get a little lost in the wallpaper so I've been thinking how
39:40can I make it pop a little more the gold is actually looking better than than I thought it
39:53would against the the muted color when we get our first paying guests and subsequent guests I would
40:01like when they come into the chateau to feel like they're stepping into history it's not a regular
40:05house it's not a hotel it's a chateau and I want them to absolutely embrace it and live the chateau
40:13when
40:14this mirror is finished I think it's gonna look really nice for the bedroom it's got a subtlety it's
40:19got a peaceful nurse and that's what I want for the bedroom peace so I think this is gonna fit
40:24in
40:24really lovely the mirror though is only a small part of Sharon's vision it's still taking a bit of
40:34imagination to figure out how it's gonna end up it is but we've been here and done this before good
40:41another couple of weeks and we won't be far off starting to think about putting some wallpaper on
40:45putting some tiles on we're getting closer but with their first paying guests due soon all Sharon
40:54and Tim can do is hope everything goes to plan 300 miles away in southwest France it's the morning of
41:07Alicia and Carlton's first ever wedding reception they stayed the night all of the guests and the house
41:15was held up there were no phone calls through the night saying anything had gone wrong the family
41:21and friends of the lucky couple have also been busy decorating the barn yesterday I got a little
41:29bit of a glimpse of some of the tables and things but it wasn't dressed yet so I'm excited to
41:36see it
41:47untouched for years Alicia and Carlton's rustic barn was a dusty and neglected dumping ground
41:55but after a lot of hard work by the whole family the space has been transformed
42:05Alicia's white gauze curtains provide the perfect backdrop for the wedding party's decorations making
42:14the barn a beautiful setting for the celebration ahead oh pretty very pretty the flowers look great the
42:26stairs look great it's got the rustic and it's got the elegant it's really transformed it
42:36everything that I've been dreaming of for the last gosh I'm not sure how many years has finally come to
42:44be I'm proud of what we were able to do to help Marie and Loic's wedding day take shape I'm
42:51really
42:52looking forward to them you know really enjoying themselves and you know having the best time of
42:57their lives and now they're back from the ceremony the party can begin
43:19it's amazing the perspective of the festival is wonderful it's a beautiful house of
43:23maitre which is spacious which has been renovated with a lot of goût it's an extraordinary place
43:30It's the best day of our life, the place is beautiful, Alicia was great.
43:40I wish you a good night, a good life.
43:47Yes, enjoy.
43:48Thank you very much, Alicia.
43:53With the day running like a dream, it's time to leave the guests to their celebrations.
44:00My job is done. They are happily married, enjoying celebrating with their friends and family.
44:08There's nothing more for me to do, so time for me to leave.
44:14Alicia and Carlton's efforts have paved the way for a blissful wedding day at the Chateau,
44:20setting the stage for memories that will last a lifetime.
44:29Next time, nerves run high.
44:32I'm a little bit worried that it's suddenly all going to go down in one hit.
44:37There are pre-wedding jitters.
44:39I think I need to rewrite the wedding vows.
44:42Thou shall not do so much manual work.
44:45And a risky demolition.
44:49It's holding.
44:50It's holding, but for how long?
44:52It's holding, but for how long it's worth too many years?
44:54Yeah.
45:08There are many times in the year,
45:09But the moment?
45:14And you got it.
45:15You got it.
45:15Yeah.
45:16You got it.
