Married at First Sight has officially kicked off with one wedding already out the way and three more nuptials are set to take place in Episode 2.
Season 18 is off to a good start with viewers commending the producers for listening to their request to cut out the lengthy pre-wedded shenanigans and get straight to the good stuff.
Fans took to social media after the premiere to express their satisfaction after watching one couple, Thomas and Camille walk down the aisle.
We even got to see the start of the second wedding which will play out in its entirety in the upcoming episode, titled Windy City Weddings.
Meanwhile, the first wedding wasn’t without its share of drama as Camille had second thoughts right before she was set to walk down the aisle.
That’s when the absurdity of marrying a stranger started to set in, and Camille’s nerves threatened another runaway bride situation.
Luckily, her bridesmaids talked her off the ledge and she later walked down the aisle and tied the knot.
