TF1 Commissions Four Weddings from ITV

CANNES: ITV Studios France will produce a local version of the reality format Four Weddings for TF1, bringing the number of international versions of the show to 13.

The TF1 edition launches later this year as a series of one-hour episodes. “Four Weddings is the perfect format for local adaptation—providing fresh content guaranteed to produce entertaining situations that any audience can relate to," Francois Florentiny, managing director of ITV Studios France. "From grand occasions in our spectacular cities and magnificent chateaux to intimate affairs in our ancient towns and rolling countryside, we are looking forward to setting the Four Weddings challenge to brides-to-be throughout France!”

The deal follows M6’s commission of Coach Trip. ITV Studios France was set up in Paris in January 2010.
