Genre: Reality, Docu-Reality
Follows the lives of four women who love to get married.
Meet Monette, Shae, Amy and Kecia, who collectively have been down the aisle a total of 20 times.
Each marriage enthusiast is ready to say "I do" again, but are the men in their lives ready?
Some of the women know exactly what they want in a future marriage while others struggle with their pasts.
One of the brides-to-be has a list she refers to as the 'Triple A': attention, affection and appreciation; whereas others grapple with revealing how many times they've said 'I do' because of their lurking insecurities of potentially failing at yet another marriage.
The women know they trust quickly and love hard but the relationship highs are often met with intense drama and scrutiny by the men they love.
Will their willingness for a happy ending with Prince Charming push the men in their life away or will they finally have the happily ever after they have been longing for?
Meet the women:

Surgeons: At the Edge of Life 4
Channel: BBC Earth (DStv 184)
TX Time: 20h00
Genre: Documentary Series
Surgeons: At the Edge of Life returns to reveal the pioneering work of some of the UK's top surgeons.
In the UK, three million major operations are carried out every year, and some of the most difficult ones are performed at world-renowned Royal Papworth and Addenbrooke's hospitals in Cambridge.
Situated just metres apart on the Cambridge Biomedical Campus, the largest centre of medical research in Europe, this series goes behind the hospitals' theatre doors to show how they push the boundaries of what is medically possible, and to meet the patients whose lives can be transformed by their groundbreaking work.
In the Season 4 premiere: Addenbrooke's head and neck surgeon Ekpemi Irune takes on a challenging case where a cancerous tumour in the face and neck is growing so fast, it's threatening her patient's life.
It's such an aggressive tumour that Chris, a 60-year-old retired gardener, must have surgery as soon as possible.
But removing this large tumour will mean a team of plastic surgeons need to do a complex reconstruction of the face and neck.
Meanwhile, at Royal Papworth, consultant surgeon Ravi De Silva also has a patient with a life-threatening illness.
33-year-old Verity has a genetic condition called Turner Syndrome, which has caused her aorta to become enlarged and in danger of fatally rupturing.
Ravi needs to replace a diseased section of the aorta with a synthetic one.
But he wants to try and save her aortic valve rather than put in a mechanical one that would require Verity to be on blood thinners the rest of her life.
But this means a much more complex procedure.
