Coming together for the first time since leaving the experiment, the brides and grooms will share their thoughts on what went down during their time in the process, where they are in their lives now and their wishes for the future.
However, with the Honesty Box returning too, there is bound to be tears and tantrums.
The meddling box contains questions that each person in a pairing must draw at random and then ask their partner.
Often it exposes problematic areas in a relationship and puts couples on the spot in front of their peers.
Will any of the former flames rekindle or will the cast be desperate to have their dinner and leave?
Those braving the country retreat are: Adam Nightingale, Amy Kenyon, Ella Morgan (series 3), Erica Roberts (series 3), Hannah Norburn, Holly Ditchfield, Kieran Chapman, Kristina Goodsell, Lacey, Matt Pilmoor (series 3), Nathan, Orson Nurse, Paul Liba (series 3), Sacha Jones, Shona Manderson (series 3), Sionnain Carmichael, Tasha Jay (series 3).
Viewers will be able to see them on Friday at 9pm on E4, or they can stream on Channel 4.
There are some notable omissions from the guestlist though.

One former bride who was gutted not to be asked back is Charlie Curtis, 30, who was married to Eve Reid, 31, on the show.
Speaking about the reunion show to the MailOnline, she said: "I wasn't invited.

"It really upset me; I was so upset when they told me I wasn't going.
"I felt so disheartened. I wanted to go back with the girls, as I'm friends with them now, but no one saw any of us being friends on screen."
Charlie then revealed how she found out she wasn't invited to the reunion, saying it came to light in the cast's WhatsApp chat.
She said that everyone was talking about it in the group and she thought her invite must have gotten lost in the post.
Other familiar faces who won't be appearing are Polly Sellman, Luke Debono, Richelle Cade, and Ross McCarthy, to name but a few.

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."
