And,I don’t understand why all family must go to all appointments. “ I can’t do this no more they’re taking all my time!” So lady, don’t go. Let daughter go try on 109 dresses and they when she narrows it down, bring mom in.
As a consultant I would be pretty upset. She said that she didn't have a budget, I'm going to pull expensive dresses that have everything she wants, and to find a dress for her, to now tell me she does have one, it would feel like I wasted my time. If she told them she did have a budget, they could've pulled dresses in her price range and find a dress that meets her standards.
people are people and many don't know how to navigate with proper etiquette, socially. Many have backstories or some issues with their families and finances and have a hard time verbalizing. Etc. I know it sucks for the consultant, but pivoting with new information is important.
@@hugs_xo I agree. She didn't need to mention why she had a budget just say hey my budget is $3500. Like one comment said maybe she thought her mom would pitch in.
Probably she wanted to be sure she looked the best on her chosen dress regardless of the price. Honestly, the double price dress here didn’t make much of a difference with the other store. She made a good decision even with all the pressure from her sister and the salesperson.
That’s EXACTLY what this was. Except she could have had both. Had she said a budget she was good with she still could have had the same experience and they would have found her a dress perhaps even less than the other but that she liked more…meaning honesty is always the best policy.
I can't get upset with the mom and sister - they're just SO done with looking all over town for a dress. In fact, I loved all the variations on "Just get the damn dress already, my feet are killing me!!" Never laughed so hard at one of these episodes before!
she did find her dress just no one was supportive so she second guessed herself and kept looking. All bc mom was being inconsiderate and selfish. It's her daughter's wedding and her dress and her money. She probably would have brought this one if mom really liked it too but she knew it wasn't genuine. And that's what she wanted most someone to validate her and approve of the dress. Mom did this to herself and the other daughter by not acknowledging what her daughter wanted and only focused on her vision which doesn't matter! It's more difficult when they are paying for the dress but in this case they weren't so it was really just validation she wanted and to do that would have cost the mom nothing. She only turned on the water works when she realized she was gonna change out of that dress and keep looking bc the sister suggested if she cried she may pick the dress... Very sad her own family couldn't be supportive of her over something as simple as a dress. And if they really didn't want to shop with her to this extent they should have just told her nicely they think its better if she shops alone bc they are complicating the decision. Not come along just to complain the whole damn time and just say yes to any dress to get it over with.
@@alexrusso6503I’m so glad when I went dress shopping (when I thought I was getting to have the big wedding) we rushed and had a “court house” wedding my mom sister and best friend was supportive and told me it was my day I had to choose. They gave opinions but really left it up to me
@@alexrusso6503 The mum is great, she's finding the humour in the situation rather than getting frustrated with the bride. And the sister obviously 'gets it' and makes it into a double act with "I think if you were to shed a tear she might do it". As for not being supportive, you may have noticed they didn't say any of this to her face, they were just having a giggle between themselves while she was getting changed, and why shouldn't they? They look like a family who are used to teasing each other and there was certainly no ill feeling when they were all together afterwards. If the bride had wanted to spend that much money she'd have got the dress whatever her mum said, simple as that. Her sister hit the nail on the head when she said she liked the dress but didn't want to pay that much for it and she agreed. She was only hesitating out of embarrassment because she'd originally told the staff there was no budget.
@@cyflym11 I do agree with that it doesn't seem like there were any hurt feelings over this and this is just normal banter and joking in their family. Hell mine is that way. They were funny. But they did complicate the dress selection and though they didn't say it to her face it did effect their attitude towards the process. Which who wouldn't be over it shopping that many times that's just human nature hoe you feel about something effects your actions. I don't think they realized how important that approval and validation was to this process and I think that's what the sales ppl gave her and that's why she went with the dress she loved originally. If mom had done that then and taken it a little more seriously they wouldn't of had to keep shopping. There's really no way she could have known and she just doesn't seem like that kinda "mom" she's more chill and relaxed and down to earth. So no I don't think anyone meant any harm here. I don't think the bride was upset either. I think it just complicated the process and then to complain about it is ironic when your actions contributed to it. Mom did mention still about the vision she had for her daughter although she was the least pushy out of any one I've seen on that show about it.. BY FAR. And I don't think it really mattered much to mom I just think she personally wasn't a fan of the style dresses.
Why did she say she didn’t have a budget to then not being confident in being able to pay for the dress? It’s ok to have a budget; if she said that her budget was 3000-3500 then I’m sure they wouldn’t have gone over that.
She was probably willing to pay whatever the cost if the dress blew her mind away. And just because you don’t have a budget but decide the cheaper by thousands dress is not much worse than this one then she is just being smart. There are plenty of things that she can spend the extra 4k on
Exactly! I always have my brides or moms say a number for a budget. Even if it’s the top of what our dresses range, then I at least know what I’m working with for them. Most stylists are going to be super respectful of budget because we understand the money discussion. If she’d laid that boundary down, Randy wouldn’t have pulled the $7000 gown, so that was fully on her for being willing to try on a gown that she knew she couldn’t pay for. At least she had the other option, and she looked so much happier in that one, anyway
I'll bet the sister is swimming in debt with thay attitude. A credit card could easily turn that $7k dress into a $13k dress she'd be paying on for the next six years.
She is so RIGHT to choose the less expensive dress ... we're talking almost $4000 difference here!!! She can do WAY better things with that money and she looked gorgeous in the other dress!!
If u know your budget don't waste people time, they could probably sell another dress instead of wasting time for her just to try more expensive dresses she knew she wasn't going to shop..
As a mother myself, I would NEVER shoot down my daughter who found a dress she is excited about! Mom saying she doesn't like it and it's "everyone's dress", get over yourself mom
He didn't show it but I think he was. When he said "If it's not in your budget then you have to take the dress off, " he was basically saying stop wasting my time
This family! I wish I had an invitation to the wedding so I could watch them all day. They clearly love each other and they’re tight-knit, but because they all have strong personalities and different ideas there is a streak of dysfunction. I’m sure family gatherings are a blast!
@@kathyhuffman7523 The mom has a vision different from the bride’s and won’t yield it to the bride’s happiness. I’d bet this is a common pattern in the family.

@thedorkettereads6052 True, but then she couldn't see herself spending so much for a dress, so in her mind, she had a budget, and she should have just said it even though it was an unlimited budget.
I always prefer the most over the top things, but her first dress looked amazing on her. I think she'd look great in anything, and I loved both dresses, but she made the right choice. Why spend 7000 on a dress if a cheaper one makes you happy?
We gave my daughter a $10,000 budget for the entire wedding. We did it including a nice buffet and we cleaned the church ourselves to save money. She chose a $350 dress. The best part of the wedding was the groom crying as she walked all the way down the aisle! The wedding was beautiful but the ceremony was more important. 15 yrs later they are happily married with 4 wonderful children. That’s what’s important- a great life together, working thru all the problems and heartaches of life,sticking together, respecting each other and having lots of humor!
Well it’s hard to believe but I actually had an aunt die and leave me that amount. So we used it on the wedding. We were very fortunate! We paid almost all our own wedding. I had a used dress and our reception cost $250. We wanted to do more for our only daughter, and it worked out.
I’ve worked in Bridal for eight years. People who say they have no budget typically do. It’s always the one who say they have no budget that get to the register and say “I have to pay for it today”
I genuinely didn't have a budget when I was wedding dress shopping. I was fortunate enough that my fiancé is in a very good financial position and he told me I could spend whatever I had to spend to feel good. I told the consultant I had an unlimited budget and that I didn't want to know how much the dresses were when I was trying them on, I just wanted dresses that looked good and made me feel good and whether that was £1000 or £10,000 so be it. In the end I got 2 dresses for £2200 and I couldn't have loved anything more, or felt better in anything, if it had cost a million pounds. I paid for my dresses outright there and then & ended up getting a 3rd dress the next day that I had loved, but my bridal part didn't like and the bridal shop gave me a discount as it was a small business. I insisted on paying full price for the 3rd dress but she wouldn't allow it so I got 3 dresses for £3000 and they were all paid for there and then, just as they would have been had I spent 30k (which I wouldn't have done). My fiancé would have done but I wouldn't & that's why I asked the consultant not to see the prices beforehand because I know I would have ended up going for what was cheapest rather than what I liked because I was conscious of not wanting to spend my fiancés money even though I had carté blanché to do so. So, yes, some brides do genuinely have an unlimited budget, & pay 100% of the price there and then to ensure the business owner knows it is paid. Then would pay for alterations further down the line when we knew how much they would cost.
As a bridal stylist, I focus my brides on how they want to FEEL on their special day. And I could tell from the picture of her in 1004 that she looked so happy. I could tell that was her gown just from the picture. With 4 months, though, she’s hands down having to do an expedited rush on the gown which is extra money on top of the $3200. Even with no budget discussed (which would’ve frustrated me), the stylists did exactly what I would’ve done and put her in a gown that was another version of the one she was loving. And even though she looked beautiful with the veil on, she was still thinking about 1004 while she was in that other dress. What she was truly looking for was the permission to say yes. She just had to give that permission to herself
The best thing I’ve done planning my wedding is 1) doing a micro wedding it’s under 11 people 2) keep my wedding dress a surprise to everyone! I picked it out myself and no one know what it looks like but me and my designer lol I knew going wedding dress shopping with my family would be way too much for me.
THIS 🙌🏼🙌🏼👏🏻 I've been saying it for years DONT SHOW THEM YOUR DRESS UNTIL THE WEDDING DAY! then they have to love it. And small weddings are better too.
She did not make the right decision and forget to tell Kleinfeld that she had a budget. That is what is so aggravating. They could have pulled a less expensive dress if they had known her budget. She wasted everyone's time.
I think brides would be so much more at peace and happiness without the desperate need for the approval of others, especially the approval and oohs and ahhs and tears from their mothers before deciding on a dress to wear on their special day. Let go, people. If you're old enough to get married, you should be old enough to make decisions for yourself without the worry about what your parents think.
This is true. I remember when I got married. I got off work early and drove to the bridal shop. It wasn't overly crowded and I had time to look at want I wanted. I called my mom to come and see the dress after i found the one i wanted. There were no bridesmaids, family members, friends or frenemies giving their unsolicited opinions of what they wanted to see me in 😊. My dress was absolutely beautiful.
True, but half the time the mom is paying and deserves a say in what she's paying for. Also, weddings have a big emotional pull for both moms and brides (rightly or wrongly), so love of the dress is something they want to share.
I don't understand why her sister said that she likes plain. Same thing with her mother saying she wants a ball gown. Who cares? They aren't wearing it.
They probably went through way more dresses than they showed in this clip. also, he was probably a little disappointed for her that she didn't have the money. It was like a missed opportunity, he could have likely found her a dress similar to the other in her range.
Why Spending 7000 when your dream dress can comes on half of it, 7000 is to much for wedding dresses, max to max 3500 is enough for it, i personally think bride chose the right one.
To all the comments dissing this bride’s process - it’s OK to find one dress and go to the best in town to see if they can top it. Then evaluate if it’s worth it and make the call. She was upfront from the start. Behind all the drama, she was quite shrewd and did what’s best for her, and looked great!
She made the right choice. She should have spoken up and given a budget. It is a lot of money and unless a person is rich, they will understand that $3200 is more than enough to spend on a dress. Doubling that for a dress you only slightly like better is not worth it. I didn’t buy my favourite wedding dress either. I bought one that was gorgeous and a fraction of the cost of the dress I would have chosen if there had not been a budget. It’s one day. The dress matters but no, it shouldn’t just be thrown on a credit card if it’s out of budget
That is what irks me. I don't care that she shopped at Kleinfeld and didn't like it as much as the dress from another store. I am upset that she lied to her consultant. They could have pulled other dresses that were more within her budget. But they didn't know to. The bride doesn't want this dress because...it is too expensive. That's all. She wasted everyone's time.
There's a lot of bad communication going on hear. I feel like there is more behind the scenes. I am going to just say that no one should decide the dress the bride is going to wear even if they are paying. If go with someone to shop for their wedding dress you're only there to give your opinion so that the bride can use your input into deciding the dress she wants. Most women want to look stuning for themselves but also want others to think that.
j.Crew used to have bridal dresses and my sister purchased one for $400 and it was gorgeous she and her husband made tons of money and there was no way she was going to spend that kind of money on dress
Shop alone, then take someone to see it if you want. I took my mom. No one else. It was a beautiful heavy silk with long pointed sleeves covered buttons on sleeves and back, seperate Wateau train. Baptism gown made from train
I’m more annoyed at mum, she wants this experience over, she’s had enough, she’s tired, she wants the daughter to pick a dress yet, she’s as picky as her daughter and doesn’t really like anything!
as a consultant you understand that it's a 50-50 with these dresses that they tell you how much the lowest price dresses going in but a lot of times people just wanna come in and have a day of it maybe get a chance to be on TV and not really wanna purchase an expensive dress
Any woman who tries on that many dresses is just doing it for attention. There is no way she cannot find one dress out of 100. You’re only going to wear the thing for a few hours. Get over yourself and quit driving every one around you crazy. She’s having a ball because all the attention is on her. 🙄🙄
Mom steady _quacking_ about daughter not making a pick, then cripes on about the dresses she tries on... You want this _over?_ "It's worse than labor!" The *_Shut. Up._*
Same. My favourite dress in the dress shop before I got married was $6700. I found one on clearance for $500 that was beautiful. I could not justify getting into debt for something that would only be used for one day. In the end after alterations, I spent about $1000
Time is money. You could have spent your time making money but here you are flattering yourself by criticising another woman. "IM NOT LIKE OTHER GUUUURL" drama is not cute.
Smart girl, to decide to sleep on it and not let anyone rush her! And the dresses were SO close in style etc, why spend more than twice as much! (Also, it didn't seem the bride-to-be was dragging out the dress shopping as much as it was her mom who just couldn't be pleased. It also seemed that the bride-to-be DID have a budget after all, and that's ok.)
The dresses were very similar! And I agree with you, it seemed like mom didn’t want the shopping to end because she was enjoying being the drama 😅 I would’ve done exactly what Randy did and pull a dress that was another version of the one she was loving, and then go from there. If the bride had just trusted herself with the 1004 gown at first, though, she could’ve had the shopping done at the other store and she wouldn’t have needed to put herself through all that other stress
4 girls,sometimes 5, just like Dolly Parton, poor but rich in love.❤ my husband and I became multi millionaires. Private island,2 airplanes ,4 homes , was killed in his helicopter at 68. I am 84 with private bedroom suite.
When your mom says "this is worse than labor and delivery" it's time to bring your magical dress shopping experience to a close, dear. Time to make a decision.
Mom said she was tired but thn she wont give her blessing to the dress. Mom was being choosy.. On the bride's defence 4 times shopping is not thst much.....i was more excited going dress shopping than my daughter in her wedding.... I know how imp it was to my daughter and didnt pressure her to get the dress ..ill go to hundreds of store for her. But yes we need to tell our consultant our budget

I’ve worked in Bridal for eight years. People who say they have no budget typically do. It’s always the one who say they have no budget that get to the register and say “I have to pay for it today”
which is such a weird concept to me like why cant ppl just give the budget?? lol
@@doctorposting it’s so strange. People love to shop with no money too.
She wants to be preened over
That may make me throw somebody!
I genuinely didn't have a budget when I was wedding dress shopping. I was fortunate enough that my fiancé is in a very good financial position and he told me I could spend whatever I had to spend to feel good.
I told the consultant I had an unlimited budget and that I didn't want to know how much the dresses were when I was trying them on, I just wanted dresses that looked good and made me feel good and whether that was £1000 or £10,000 so be it. In the end I got 2 dresses for £2200 and I couldn't have loved anything more, or felt better in anything, if it had cost a million pounds.
I paid for my dresses outright there and then & ended up getting a 3rd dress the next day that I had loved, but my bridal part didn't like and the bridal shop gave me a discount as it was a small business. I insisted on paying full price for the 3rd dress but she wouldn't allow it so I got 3 dresses for £3000 and they were all paid for there and then, just as they would have been had I spent 30k (which I wouldn't have done). My fiancé would have done but I wouldn't & that's why I asked the consultant not to see the prices beforehand because I know I would have ended up going for what was cheapest rather than what I liked because I was conscious of not wanting to spend my fiancés money even though I had carté blanché to do so.
So, yes, some brides do genuinely have an unlimited budget, & pay 100% of the price there and then to ensure the business owner knows it is paid. Then would pay for alterations further down the line when we knew how much they would cost.
As a bridal stylist, I focus my brides on how they want to FEEL on their special day. And I could tell from the picture of her in 1004 that she looked so happy. I could tell that was her gown just from the picture. With 4 months, though, she’s hands down having to do an expedited rush on the gown which is extra money on top of the $3200. Even with no budget discussed (which would’ve frustrated me), the stylists did exactly what I would’ve done and put her in a gown that was another version of the one she was loving. And even though she looked beautiful with the veil on, she was still thinking about 1004 while she was in that other dress. What she was truly looking for was the permission to say yes. She just had to give that permission to herself
The best thing I’ve done planning my wedding is 1) doing a micro wedding it’s under 11 people 2) keep my wedding dress a surprise to everyone! I picked it out myself and no one know what it looks like but me and my designer lol I knew going wedding dress shopping with my family would be way too much for me.
THIS 🙌🏼🙌🏼👏🏻 I've been saying it for years DONT SHOW THEM YOUR DRESS UNTIL THE WEDDING DAY! then they have to love it. And small weddings are better too.
The bride made the right decision.
She saves $ & still looks beautiful. 👍
She did not make the right decision and forget to tell Kleinfeld that she had a budget. That is what is so aggravating. They could have pulled a less expensive dress if they had known her budget.
She wasted everyone's time.
The consultants are amazing at their patience.
She wanted them to wheel and deal with her. They said "Nah, you ain't that special."
This mom is reminding me that I don’t want to take anyone dress shopping with me lol
I think brides would be so much more at peace and happiness without the desperate need for the approval of others, especially the approval and oohs and ahhs and tears from their mothers before deciding on a dress to wear on their special day. Let go, people. If you're old enough to get married, you should be old enough to make decisions for yourself without the worry about what your parents think.
This is true. I remember when I got married. I got off work early and drove to the bridal shop. It wasn't overly crowded and I had time to look at want I wanted. I called my mom to come and see the dress after i found the one i wanted. There were no bridesmaids, family members, friends or frenemies giving their unsolicited opinions of what they wanted to see me in 😊. My dress was absolutely beautiful.
Never had the experience it seems.
True, but half the time the mom is paying and deserves a say in what she's paying for. Also, weddings have a big emotional pull for both moms and brides (rightly or wrongly), so love of the dress is something they want to share.
The veil is the icing on the Cake, it pulls everything together and you feel like a bride
I love the interactions between Randy and Mindy
$7000. Is way to much for that dress.
If you're not in the business you really don't know.
I'm confused if the other dress was what she wanted and it was cheaper why didn't she get it
If the bride doesn't want to spend that kind of money, for one day... she can always have the dress altered, and dyed.
I fail to understand WHY the mother of the bride has to do all this drama. It’s her wedding and her dress!! How is that so difficult
The mom and sister are hilarious. 😂
I don't understand why her sister said that she likes plain. Same thing with her mother saying she wants a ball gown. Who cares? They aren't wearing it.
I could not be as civil as Randy is to some of these narcissists!
The other dress was prettier and half the price. She chose right.
Click bait title 👎😳
Randy did not get upset .....
They probably went through way more dresses than they showed in this clip. also, he was probably a little disappointed for her that she didn't have the money. It was like a missed opportunity, he could have likely found her a dress similar to the other in her range.
“It shouldn’t have a budget on it”. Welcome to the real world where you need to have the money to pay for things.
Why Spending 7000 when your dream dress can comes on half of it, 7000 is to much for wedding dresses, max to max 3500 is enough for it, i personally think bride chose the right one.
Then she should have told Kleinfeld that she had a budget. She told them it was unlimited. She lied.
The sister was cracking me up 😂
If she found the perfect dress at another store, why didn't she buy it?
If she has no spending limit and she liked the dress in the other store, why didn't she just buy it then and there?
Some brides want to play dress up 😂😂😂
To all the comments dissing this bride’s process - it’s OK to find one dress and go to the best in town to see if they can top it. Then evaluate if it’s worth it and make the call. She was upfront from the start. Behind all the drama, she was quite shrewd and did what’s best for her, and looked great!
She actually wasn't up front... she said there was no budget! I agree $4k more not worth it but don't waste everyone's time.
She wasn't honest from the start. She said unlimited budget and that was not the case.
And *then* she tried to pressure the staff for a discount!
Don’t go into debt when you look beautiful in more than one dress is the moral of the story
Nightmare! Mom is not supportive at all. Buy what you like and leave her out of the mix.
The first dress from the other store WAS the best dress. Glad she choose it. ❤🎉
She made the right choice. She should have spoken up and given a budget. It is a lot of money and unless a person is rich, they will understand that $3200 is more than enough to spend on a dress. Doubling that for a dress you only slightly like better is not worth it.
I didn’t buy my favourite wedding dress either. I bought one that was gorgeous and a fraction of the cost of the dress I would have chosen if there had not been a budget. It’s one day. The dress matters but no, it shouldn’t just be thrown on a credit card if it’s out of budget
That is what irks me. I don't care that she shopped at Kleinfeld and didn't like it as much as the dress from another store.
I am upset that she lied to her consultant. They could have pulled other dresses that were more within her budget. But they didn't know to. The bride doesn't want this dress because...it is too expensive. That's all.
She wasted everyone's time.
Are you kidding me? You tell Kleinfeld you have NO budget and then complain the dress you love is too expensive? GTFO 🤬
What I am loving is Randy's tropical tie and pocket square situation.
" I'M THE. MOM " WHAT !!! I THOUGHT SHE WAS A GIRLFRIEND.......NEVER WOULD HAVE GUESSES THAT ONE 😊💝
HAPPY WEDDING
you just know the sister is done with the whole process of finding a dress
There's a lot of bad communication going on hear. I feel like there is more behind the scenes. I am going to just say that no one should decide the dress the bride is going to wear even if they are paying. If go with someone to shop for their wedding dress you're only there to give your opinion so that the bride can use your input into deciding the dress she wants. Most women want to look stuning for themselves but also want others to think that.
j.Crew used to have bridal dresses and my sister purchased one for $400 and it was gorgeous she and her husband made tons of money and there was no way she was going to spend that kind of money on dress
Shop alone, then take someone to see it if you want. I took my mom. No one else. It was a beautiful heavy silk with long pointed sleeves covered buttons on sleeves and back, seperate Wateau train. Baptism gown made from train
Totally agree with Randy 😂 bridezila, sisterzila and momzila but that 2nd dress was just spectacular
I died laughing Randy is a riot 😂😂
This connection between mother and daughter is beautiful ❤
Mom looks so young! I thought she was the bride
I’m more annoyed at mum, she wants this experience over, she’s had enough, she’s tired, she wants the daughter to pick a dress yet, she’s as picky as her daughter and doesn’t really like anything!
What connection? Seemed weak to me.
That mother is unbearable I'm so glad mine is not like that
She was. The "I can't do this no more" made me cringe.
Mom just needed some time to get the tears flowing, she was just stalling with the “hate it”
I love Randy's attitude ( at least on video), that if you don't LOVE our dress, it's fine...bubye.
Mothers should stop thinking it’s their wedding!
Why did she say she has no price limit when she clearly did
The dress for 3200 looked better and you can tell from the pic that she was happier.
The consultant should of asked what the other dress cost, and work close to that price.
She knew what the dress looked like based on the details she was given, so she probably also knew the price of it
as a consultant you understand that it's a 50-50 with these dresses that they tell you how much the lowest price dresses going in but a lot of times people just wanna come in and have a day of it maybe get a chance to be on TV and not really wanna purchase an expensive dress
Mom nagging about wanting to find the dress already and when her daughter does she doesn’t want it!
We know who the problem was
The mom saying she has to find a dress today like the problem is the bride but the mom hates everything...!
You wasted their time at Klienfeld
I'm with Randy said go to the other store and get your dress
Randy should've insisted the 2 women in the hideous mustard yellow tops change before they'd continue
You couldn't miss them😆
Wow petty…. Its her wedding, her dress 0:57
Any woman who tries on that many dresses is just doing it for attention. There is no way she cannot find one dress out of 100. You’re only going to wear the thing for a few hours. Get over yourself and quit driving every one around you crazy. She’s having a ball because all the attention is on her. 🙄🙄
Unpopular opinion here, but the 7k dress looked a lot better.
I would’ve gotten it. 3200 is still a lot of money and I’d rather spend more on the one.
The mom voice sounds like nanny Fine's mom in " The nanny"
Like nails on a chalkboard
Veil saves it every single time. You would have thought that some veil is way more important than the dress itself LOL 😂
Mom steady _quacking_ about daughter not making a pick, then cripes on about the dresses she tries on... You want this _over?_ "It's worse than labor!" The *_Shut. Up._*
My first wedding dress costed $900 and my second dress was $350. I’ll never understand how people spend so much for a dress.
AMEN!
My mom spent £70 and looked incredible. There is definitely no need to bankrupt yourself for a dress you'll only wear once!
Same. My favourite dress in the dress shop before I got married was $6700. I found one on clearance for $500 that was beautiful. I could not justify getting into debt for something that would only be used for one day. In the end after alterations, I spent about $1000
I agree. Mine was $350 and I absolutely loved it.
Time is money. You could have spent your time making money but here you are flattering yourself by criticising another woman. "IM NOT LIKE OTHER GUUUURL" drama is not cute.
Smart girl, to decide to sleep on it and not let anyone rush her! And the dresses were SO close in style etc, why spend more than twice as much! (Also, it didn't seem the bride-to-be was dragging out the dress shopping as much as it was her mom who just couldn't be pleased. It also seemed that the bride-to-be DID have a budget after all, and that's ok.)
The dresses were very similar! And I agree with you, it seemed like mom didn’t want the shopping to end because she was enjoying being the drama 😅 I would’ve done exactly what Randy did and pull a dress that was another version of the one she was loving, and then go from there. If the bride had just trusted herself with the 1004 gown at first, though, she could’ve had the shopping done at the other store and she wouldn’t have needed to put herself through all that other stress
The way Randy dapped up the sister when she said she thought the price was going to be way worse had me wheezing
I can’t be the only one who thinks the mom’s voice sounds like Janice from Friends just a little right? 😂
I hate the bride sister. She is so negative about everything 😠
Did the sister just say they'd shared the same bed for 20 years. That's a bit creepy 🤢sick
4 girls,sometimes 5, just like Dolly Parton, poor but rich in love.❤ my husband and I became multi millionaires. Private island,2 airplanes ,4 homes , was killed in his helicopter at 68. I am 84 with private bedroom suite.
When your mom says "this is worse than labor and delivery" it's time to bring your magical dress shopping experience to a close, dear. Time to make a decision.
What a bunch of WHINERS! TOO LOUD! 😂
Mom isnt wearing the dress, the bride is.
She looked great. Excellent posture!
She’s short so most do stand up straighter to get that extra quarter inch 😁
The sister: You made me wake up before noon 😂😂😂
What is up the the lashes? I don’t know how folks wear those and see clearly. 🤷🏻♀️
And their horrible spray tans
They aren’t even that bad. Bffr
The moms face when she said “this is worse than labor and delivery” took me out
I respect her for wanting to sleep on it like damn I don’t have to buy anything!!
The veil usually works every time. 😂 LOL
"This is why they invented credit cards" SENT ME
I love the sister 🥰❤️
Mom said she was tired but thn she wont give her blessing to the dress. Mom was being choosy..
On the bride's defence 4 times shopping is not thst much.....i was more excited going dress shopping than my daughter in her wedding....
I know how imp it was to my daughter and didnt pressure her to get the dress ..ill go to hundreds of store for her.
But yes we need to tell our consultant our budget
CONDOLENCES TO RANDY AND THE FENOLI FAMILY.😅
