In the final episode of Home Truths Series 2, Nav throws Alex a bridal shower for one — prosecco, tiara, maid-of-honour-for-the-day energy — and interrogates her on everything wedding. The Croatia venue that flopped. The dress that'll take a year to make. The New York proposal she absolutely didn't see coming. And the football match Casey almost skipped a venue viewing for.

– Genetic testing, SMA awareness, and why weddings suddenly feel very real
– Girl or boy? Toxic intrusive thoughts and Indian cultural expectations
– Alex's advice for anyone getting married — and for anyone going to a wedding
– Fad or Fab: the wedding trends worth your time and the ones to bin
