DON'T Tell The Bride has made show history - after a furious bride REFUSED to marry her groom.
Sofia, 26, was so horrified by both the dress and Oktoberfest-themed wedding her 32-year-old fiance Craig had planned for her that she didn't make their nuptials legal.
As viewers watched stunned, Sofia - who hates beer - said: "I don't want to marry someone that nasty.
"There's no point in letting him make a fool of me.
"I'm done, I don't think there's any chance of salvaging it. I've given him so many chances."
Although the couple - who have been together for eight years and have two children together - were encouraged to say their vows, they were never officially made husband and wife.
At the end of the show, E4 stated: "At the time of making this programme Craig and Sofia had decided not to make their wedding legal and were working together on their relationship."
At the beginning of Wednesday night's episode, Sofia told the cameras that she was hoping for a "boho beach wedding".
She then said: "If Craig doesn't know me by now it's probably warning signs.
"If after eight years of being together, if they can't pick what you want at your wedding, I don't think you should be together.
"If he gets things really wrong and I don't like anything, I actually won't go."
Away from the ears of his fiancee, Craig said the wedding was going to be "based on my old party lifestyle, getting everyone together for loads of drinking and a crazy wild party."
He then booked a brewery for their big day and arranged her hen do at a pub in Luton and a brewery tour, which she refused to do.
Craig and his stags, meanwhile, flew to Prague.
Phoning Craig from the hen do, one of Sofia's pals warned: "It didn't go down too well, the brewery. She's really upset and doesn't want to go ahead with anything."
Craig then made matters worse by buying his bride-to-be an Alpine-style Bavarian gown for her wedding dress and similar style dresses for the bridesmaids.
This appeared to be the final straw, with Sofia refusing to try her dress on.
She then told her friends to phone the guests and tell them the wedding was off.
Sofia said: "I hate it, I hate everything about it. Why would he make me wear anything so ugly?"
Craig's sister Hannah was then heard on the phone, telling her brother: "Craig, this is serious. She is not marrying you tomorrow.
"It's not going ahead. No way.
"She's crying, she sounds really shaky."
Swearing, Craig said: "This is so Sofia...spoilt little brat, hasn't got her own way."
Although Craig did buy Sofia a new bridal dress, and friends convinced her to go through with it, she kicked off again once they arrived at the venue.
Sofia was then filmed heading into the toilets at a branch of KFC before changing out of her frock.
After a private talk in a nearby children's play park, Craig encouraged Sofia to walk down the aisle and say her vows.
But afterwards, she told the cameras: "I think we need deep serious talks and try and get back on track - but who knows with us."
Craig, meanwhile, said: "I don't know why she thought it was a good idea giving me control.
"This was a bad idea, a very bad idea."
