As many of you know it was time for the vows renewal ceremony at which couples decided whether they wanted to continue their relationships outside of the experiment or call it quits.

MAFS couple Mark and Ning were the not so lucky in love couple to stay at Collits Inn Hartley for their ceremony.

While in a beautiful picturesque location, the couple decided to go their separate ways.

Collits Inn owner Caitlin Paige said, although Mark and Ning were unlucky in love, it was an honour for Collits to be used as one of the secluded locations.

"We were first contacted by EndemolShine back in 2017 for the potential use of Collits Inn as one of the locations in MAFS.

"However the dates didn't line up that time around but they kept us in mind and reached out again in November," she said.

The company hired the barn and grounds for the filming of the ceremony, which would look similar to a wedding set up, according to Ms Paige. Ms Paige said EndemolShine confirmed the December dates and she had to keep it under wraps until the airing of the episode on Monday, April 1.

"The location manager visited our site a few times and then there was paperwork for us to sign and it was all go ahead," she said.

The filming crew arrived on December 4, followed by truck loads of flowers and decor ready to set up for Ning and Mark's ceremony.

"It was fantastic to see Collits Inn decked out in all that floral glory and for this beautiful part of the Blue Mountains to be seen by thousands. It certainly gave our couples and potential couples a spectacular visual of just what could be on their day," Ms Paige said.
