But not everyone is happy about who they’ve been paired with.
In a preview clip for tomorrow’s episode, midwife Grace is left in tears on her big day.
The Norwich beauty, 31, is matched with operations manager Ashley, 35, from Bridgend.
But it didn’t take her long to realise that he wasn’t The One.
Speaking to the camera after the wedding, a despondent Grace said: “I wouldn’t say he’s my type.”
Frustrated by the situation, Grace broken down in tears and was seen walking away from the camera.
She could be heard saying: “I don’t want to do this, sorry.”
But will Grace’s journey in the experiment already be over?
And Grace is not the only bride that has been left unhappy with the experts pick.
On tonight’s episode, Sarah cruelly snubbed husband Dean at the altar as she branded him “over the top”.
The recruitment consultant, 31, admitted she’s only attracted to bad boys with tattoos, but was hoping to date someone opposite to that.
The experts matched her with hopeful romantic Dean, 31, who wants to sweep his wife off his feet by being a gentleman.
As he nervously walked down the aisle, he was greeted with bemused expressions from the bride’s family.
He waved to the bridesmaids, but was met with a frosty reception, as they appear to ignore him and look away.
Sarah’s friend Caitlin told the camera: “Looks are very important to Sarah and he is definitely not Sarah’s type.
“But in the past Sarah hasn’t always chosen the right sort of guy, so I think it’s a good thing.”
Dean anxiously waited for his bride to arrive, but as soon as Sarah saw him she looked less than impressed.
Meanwhile Dean gushed “this is the woman for me” as the smitten lad paid her a number of compliments.
But Sarah had her reservations and told the producers: “No, I don’t fancy Dean. So sorry.”
Feltham lad Dean had something extra special up his sleeve.
He performed a rap at the altar but it didn’t go down well with his new wife or her family, who were left cringing.
Mafs couples that have stood the test of time
Loved-up Tayah Victoria and Adam Aveling of series six fame had the first Mafs baby.
The pair couldn’t keep their hands off each other on the programme and quickly found their feet in the outside world, moving into Adam’s Doncaster home.
Just 18 months after meeting, the couple welcomed their daughter Beau.
Season five couple Michelle Walder and Owen Jenkins also managed to make their marriage work away from the cameras and had their first child in December.
Teacher Michelle, 29, has no regrets about taking part in the experiment. She told us: “I just feel very lucky and thankful that it has worked out – and excited for everything to come.”
Michelle and Owen were both sick of dating apps when they applied in 2019.
Owen recalled: “I had been out for some drinks with a friend after work.
“While he was out for a cigarette I was scrolling on Instagram waiting for him to come back in.
“The MAFS advert was the last thing I saw, and I joked, ‘Wouldn’t it be funny if I signed up?’
“A few beers later when I was back at home I sent in the application, and the rest is history.”
Another couple to make Mafs UK history is Zoe Clifton and Jenna Robinson.
Despite a slight rocky start, where they clashed over Jenna’s vegan lifestyle, the show’s first same sex pairing are still going strong.
They even have a successful podcast together called Life With a Pod.
Jenna shed light on being involved in the show earlier this year when she told us: “We’re not legally married, and I never felt like we were. I definitely feel the process makes you take the relationship a lot more seriously and having the help of the experts… if you can survive that process it sets a firm foundation for a long-lasting relationship.”
