• Fawziah & Atif Bajwa – An arranged marriage, this couple had only one date before their wedding, which lasted three days and had over 500 guests. Hometown: Cincinnati, Ohio.

• Heather & Lance Holmes – Lance told Heather’s girlfriend that he was going to marry her the moment he saw her. They both professed their love to each other after only three months. Hometown: Middletown, Ohio.
• Kaia & Thomas Jacobi – Since they worked at the same company, Kaia and Thomas kept their romance a secret. Kaia’s father is a reverend and insisted that Thomas be baptized. Hometown: Washington, D.C.
• Dana & Steve Krashin – They were high school sweethearts and dated 11 years before they got married. Since they have been together for so long, Dana thinks Steve should have ESP and know all her thoughts by now. Hometown: New York.
• Crystal & Johnnie Moutra – Johnnie proposed to Crystal at a Houston Rockets basketball game. They live with his parents and 10 other relatives in one house. Hometown: Missouri City, Texas.
• Toni & Barry Woodward – Combined, this is their seventh marriage, which they say is their lucky number. The couple couldn’t wait to get married and their engagement only lasted one month. Hometown: Deer Park, Texas.
Here Comes the Newlyweds is a lot of fun and different than a lot of the reality shows on TV now. The 7 couples compete in competitions like the men driving blindfold and the women giving them directions, tango dancing, roasting their wives and the blindfolded husbands have to figure out if their wives are kissing them. My favorite competition is where the wives get 10 changes and the husbands have to figure out what they are…you will be shocked what changes none of the husbands get.
One of the things that makes the show different is the big prize they can go home with is $250,000 but as the challenges go on they win money to be added the added big prize.
It is also cute the way the couples interact with each other, it is so sweet it makes me want to be a newlywed ASAP!
So tune into Here Comes the Newlyweds on ABC tonight at 10p for some fun loving!
