As the New year gets underway in Weatherfield wedding bells are ringing for Corrie’s Kirk as he and bride-to-be Beth Tinker prepare to walk down the aisle - 80s style!
As these fantastic pictures show the couple decide on an 80s theme for their big day with the bride and groom leading the way with their outrageous outfits.
The decade that gave us neon, leg warmers and big hair doesn’t
disappoint. Beth styles herself on Madonna from her Like A Virgin years,
while Kirky chooses Adam Ant as his inspiration.
The
wedding party are given the 80s treatment too with bridesmaids Maria,
Sinead and Tracy styled as pop group Bananarama, best man and usher
Chesney and Craig dress as the Blues Brothers.
The guests are also invited to dress up and viewers will be given the
following visual treats; Sally & Tim styled as pop duo Dollar,
Sean as George Michael, Dev from Ghostbusters, Julie as Molly Ringwald,
and Sophie and Maddie as Vogue style Madonna tributes, much to Beth’s
annoyance!
But while the guests gather for the ceremony will the wedding go without
a hitch? As Beth waits at the registry office her Prince Charming is
nowhere in sight. Kirk is suffering from a classic case of pre wedding
nerves, brought on by the arrival of Beth’s family, who clearly think
Kirk isn’t good enough to join the Tinker clan.
Kirk’s left doubting whether he’s worthy of his beloved Beth. Can Chesney talk sense into his pal or is Kirk about to let the love of his life slip through his fingers?
Viewers will find out if the pair tie the knot when the wedding episodes air on Friday 9th January.

I've gone right off Sinead.
ReplyDeleteOn the contrary, it's Beth who is not good enough for Kirk. She is mouthy and spiteful; he is a big-hearted gem, loyal to his friends.
ReplyDeleteThe wedding looks like a lot of fun but of *course* they'll end up married!! They must!!
ReplyDeleteSally and Tim look fantastic.....but really, how many of them could afford to go out and buy specialized pieces of clothing and wigs to attend a wedding? Of course it would not be a problem for Sophie...as far as I can tell she does not give money to Sally for lodging or food, so whatever money she gets from her low end job at Dev's, she can spend on whatever....even outfits for her and Maddie to attend a wedding of someone she never even speaks to or interacts half the time!
ReplyDeleteWhen did weddings become costume parties? People seem to take any excuse to play act nowadays. Hallowe'en used to be for children and now the adults have taken that over as well.
ReplyDeleteWe're regressing, people!
I think the whole thing looks like fun. But I could do without the wigs on the guys. They look stupid and make the whole thing really look like a joke rather than a theme wedding. How could they be serious and romantic taking vows with that silly thing on Kirk's head. It ruins it for me.
