Sister was nice. She's the older sister, she has helped this kid grow up. And she may be talkative but she's polite and jolly. The bride on the other hand is not even kind enough to look at the dresses that her own mother and sister has pulled out, let alone try it on. That's just blatantly rude. Why bring them along if you don't want their opinion? This marriage is set up for failure.
I'd love to see an adult bride who didn't bring along with her people who she chose herself to be her entourage before she sorted out their toxic relationships. It's not entourage's fault for being their and giving input - they were brought there by the bride. Most of these brides need a lot of self work to do before getting married and starting a family. That's serous and affects other people's lives. It's not little princess playing dress up and fighting with 5 minutes of TV time, together with her disfunctional family so that all that mess can be professionally filmed, broadcasted worldwide for decades to come and for posterity to see.
Then don’t bring them. I agree that sometimes they might push the wrong buttons but there are also occasions where the bride has terrible taste and she can’t rely on the consultant because they want to sell a dress.
If a bride doesn't want opinions & input, she should shop alone. It should be expected that if a bride brings an entourage, they are going to have something to say & the bride brought them cause she wanted their input. The key is not to bring any more than 3 ppl because then opinions become too overwhelming & muddy. I took my mom & sister w me when I went wedding dress shopping & I was thankful to have their input. *The key is to give constructive input. Explain why you don't like the dress, i.e.: the dress smashes your breast down instead of lifts them up; this hemming between the bodice & skirt doesn't flow; the drop waist hits you in a spot that makes you look shorter than you are. *I was clear w my mom & sister the style of dress I wanted & they stayed w in the confines of it & didn't try to stear me into another style, but then was able to give me input on all the dresses I did try on. In the end, we all loved the dress I picked because it fit exactly what I was looking for.
The father from the second family really summed it up best: What more can you wish for your children than happiness? As a grandparent, that says it all.
That is true and only applies to true family/parents but sadly not all families and parents are loving. Many just want to screw their children and family members over at every chance they get.
What struck me was how crimson the bride blushed when she finally did it. It didn't seem at all as though she was flushed with anger. It was more like she was delighted with how she looked, loved the way she felt, and was proud of how she stood up to Dr. Sister. I wonder how Dr. Sister felt when the show aired -- whether she felt she had been edited to look like a snot, or if she had the wisdom to recognize and correct her snottiness.
She came in knowing what kind of style she wanted. If others had objections, the time to voice them would've been before they got there. Once she's trying on dresses, enjoy the ride - and keep all criticism, if you have any, constructive. Personally, I can't stand it when a family member says, "This isn't the kind of dress I imagined on her." What does your imagination have to do with what the bride likes?
See for me I didn’t think that was super weird but where I work we are a big family and I would absolutely invite my boss wedding dress shopping. He’s like a father figure to me.
It cracked me up to hear her call him "Daddy." I'm 67, and I still call my dear 91-year-old Southern daddy "Daddy." And Daddy refers to his own daddy as Daddy.
omg the first dress was perfect! it was fun and sparkles and her family ruined it... the last one was ok but man i hate some of these family members making it about them and not the bride
My dad just died. My biggest regret is I didn’t go wedding dress shopping with him. My dad was also from NYC and sounded a lot like this dad. This episode broke my heart. What a great memory she has.
Oh Ellen, your comment was beautiful and when I saw your lovely big smile I wanted to give you the biggest hug 🫂 Your Dad sounds wonderful and I'm sure he is watching over you, proudly from above 😇 Take care, sending you warmest wishes from an Australian stranger on the other side of the planet who just gave her 86 year old Dad a extra big hug because of your comment, thank you.💜🕯🙏 Kathleen
@@mariesmith1616My late mom told me this. She said regardless of how old your children get, in your parents’ heart, you are always going to be children to them.
You bubble that hemline Lauren 😅 Her sister is to much, and the mom is right behind her. The 2nd brides dress was absolutely beautiful, and her family were lovely.
That dad, Fred...he is so adorable, trying to hide his sudden realization that his little girl is not so little any more, by smiling and saying the correct things. In his eyes though, he was processing this switch that probably seemed so sudden and he's realizing it isn't so sudden...she's just your little girl.
Something about the first family I’m trying to put my finger on. They’re opinionated, but *the whole family wears a smile while giving their opinions* 🤔
I wanted to slap her! If you know "Lauren is about to lose it." (She said this while smiling). Then why are you pulling dresses for her and ignoring her wishes?
Me too. I actually went by myself to choose my dress and then showed it to my bridesmaids on the day of my wedding. That way it was 100% all my decisions and nobody could interfere with what I imagined I wanted to look like. I can't believe how some families treat brides when choosing something so important and special.
@@kerrystone7375i think friends and family see themselves as the bride and want what they would wear. That’s awesome that you did it on the day of your wedding 😊
I find when you have an opinionated family, it’s like they want to relive their wedding and forget that they had theirs and it’s someone else’s turn, the bride.
I got married right out of College. My parents did EVERYTHING for my wedding. I Knew it was about them. My mother even bought my wedding dress. It cost 99$ and a perfect fit off the rack. My mother's dress was 600$. It was a beautiful day and a lovely wedding. They really enjoyed myself. And it made them so happy. I really appreciated it. I was a Science and Math major so I was too busy to plan.
@@moniqueengleman873 so, you’re okay that you didn’t get the wedding of YOUR dreams? Does that mean if you have a daughter you will try to take over HER wedding day?
“I think it’s great that we voice our opinions so strongly” That is annoyingly dumb to think when it’s not your wedding. That’s manipulative. They need to support the bride. Not step on her dreams. Sister needs to keep her mouth shut and I commend that beautiful bride for basically telling her to shut up 😆 The second bride has a great and supportive family. The dad is so sweet. They did it right.
I am of retirement age, and in all the weddings I have been involved with, it NEVER fails that someone tries to take over. I have seen picky bridesmaids, groom's mothers who invited extra groomsmen, mothers who have changed the flowers, mothers who have provided the bridal party gifts, etc...
Brides should take one family member mother sister etc makes the appointment more easier for the bride and at the end of the day or should I say the wedding day it will be a surprise to all once a veil goes on all dresses are beautiful
That’s why I’ve always thought brides should go dress shopping on their own - unless their family and/or friends are able to get the (very simple) _”it’s the bride’s wedding, not theirs”_ base concept.
It was amazing, so sad the sister and mother dumped on it straight away. It was so so flattering, super distinctive and elegant. Nothing remotely Vegas showgirl about it.
I'm so glad you voiced your opinion 'So Strongly' big sis...gave lil sis some practice doing the same!! BackAtcha! 😁 Gotta say, though. Mom knows how to smile, but not in the eyes....am I the only one seeing that?
The staff on the show doesn't like the family having opinions, because the family encourages the bride to try on more options rather than just picking the first dress because they feel emotional about being in a wedding dress for the first time. The staff would rather get that commission in the first 15 minutes and then bring in another customer. Sometimes the family is right though, and the bride's first pick isn't the most flattering option possible.
It is so strange to me that she invited her elderly male boss, the principal, to her wedding dress appointment. It is also strange to me that he accepted! It almost seems a bit inappropriate to me.
Why did the first sister have the big smile saying the bride is trying to stay calm but she's about to lose it? Why is that funny or a pleasure unless.........fill in the word.
La familia de la segunda novia es adorable y cálida... Realmente hermosa!!❤❤❤ La primera niña😢.... Lamento su familia no la apoye nada😢 A ambas les deseo la mayor felicidad!!!❤❤❤❤
I was a principal. If one of my staff members had asked me to join her and her family to buy a wedding dress I would have thought she had lost her mind.
1st bride - WHY did she so want to have the experience of shopping with that entourage? Putting aside the unexplained presence of her boss (say what?) why would you consider buying a dress that isn't "the one", just to have done it with them?
My father was the best to go shopping with because he had great style, was tactfully honest, and never forced anything on me that I did not like. He wanted me to look good and feel good.
For those saying entourage this and entourage that … please they’re here for a reason and obviously they want the best for the bride !! Ur family will be the first to praise and be honest when it has to.
"My sister is close to losing it." As she smiles and repeats how important it is for the bride's family to let their opinions be heard, loudly. Yuck. Why did the bride want THAT experience with her family.
I LOVED WHEN SHE PUT HER SISTER IN HER PLACE!!! More brides to be's needs to start telling their entourages, it's not their wedding!!!
I agree. So don't bring a large entourage.
I bet they called her a bridezilla for that! We need a word for entourage-zillas lol
Sister was nice. She's the older sister, she has helped this kid grow up. And she may be talkative but she's polite and jolly. The bride on the other hand is not even kind enough to look at the dresses that her own mother and sister has pulled out, let alone try it on. That's just blatantly rude. Why bring them along if you don't want their opinion? This marriage is set up for failure.
Why it did it stay dr?!

WHEN will the entourages learn to SUPPORT the bride, not act like it's THEIR wedding! Keep your opinions until the bride gives hers.
Some of the encourages are nothings but jerks. Like these
You do realize this is all staged and isn't real?
Then don’t bring them. I agree that sometimes they might push the wrong buttons but there are also occasions where the bride has terrible taste and she can’t rely on the consultant because they want to sell a dress.
As soon as it's not staged

That is true and only applies to true family/parents but sadly not all families and parents are loving. Many just want to screw their children and family members over at every chance they get.
The look on the sisters face when she stood up to her in the end. She looked completely shocked by her doing that.
I agree! She s the DOCTOR, after all…
I remember one. ‘Friend’ didn’t like the dress the bride loved. Bride: ‘fake it!’
What struck me was how crimson the bride blushed when she finally did it. It didn't seem at all as though she was flushed with anger. It was more like she was delighted with how she looked, loved the way she felt, and was proud of how she stood up to Dr. Sister. I wonder how Dr. Sister felt when the show aired -- whether she felt she had been edited to look like a snot, or if she had the wisdom to recognize and correct her snottiness.
The sister has been bullying her (with a smile, of course) for her entire life.
I love the way she tells her sister off. It's my decision and I know about fashion.
She came in knowing what kind of style she wanted. If others had objections, the time to voice them would've been before they got there. Once she's trying on dresses, enjoy the ride - and keep all criticism, if you have any, constructive.
Personally, I can't stand it when a family member says, "This isn't the kind of dress I imagined on her." What does your imagination have to do with what the bride likes?
When mum and sister smile, it doesn’t reach their eyes..
Did…. Did she just say she brought her BOSS!? She brought her BOSS to her BRIDAL APPOINTMENT!?
Exactly! She doesn't ever refer to her as being a friend...how bizarre.
Heard that too! 😂
See for me I didn’t think that was super weird but where I work we are a big family and I would absolutely invite my boss wedding dress shopping. He’s like a father figure to me.
I’ve worked with my boss for nearly 10 years and adore her and respect her opinions. I’m guessing it’s a similar situation.
I always love how these brides' families will say it's not who she is! How do YOU know? If she loves it, she loves it.
Poor Lauren, she looked like a hostage and completely stressed by her family.
“What can you want for your children than happiness.” The second Bride's Dad ✨
I just LOVE that dad! All girls deserve a dad like that! ❤️
It cracked me up to hear her call him "Daddy." I'm 67, and I still call my dear 91-year-old Southern daddy "Daddy." And Daddy refers to his own daddy as Daddy.
omg the first dress was perfect! it was fun and sparkles and her family ruined it... the last one was ok but man i hate some of these family members making it about them and not the bride
Randy's hair had a moment!
He's adorable.
I loved her in the first dress and she did too.
My dad just died. My biggest regret is I didn’t go wedding dress shopping with him. My dad was also from NYC and sounded a lot like this dad. This episode broke my heart. What a great memory she has.
I'm so sorry! Hugs :hugging_face:
I am so sorry for your loss. The last bride's dad was very special and I'm sure your dad was too.
@@snakebitepellehuethank you so much

What a contrast in families. If you're not sure how to be a loving, supportive family member, use family #2 as your template.
Of course. 21 year old already has a toddler and daddy is crying because her “little girl” who’s already a mum is getting married.
@@mariesmith1616 And you have perfectly echoed the judgemental and self righteous tone of family 1. Well done!
@@mariesmith1616My late mom told me this. She said regardless of how old your children get, in your parents’ heart, you are always going to be children to them.
You bubble that hemline Lauren 😅 Her sister is to much, and the mom is right behind her. The 2nd brides dress was absolutely beautiful, and her family were lovely.

Sister: I think she’s close to losing it at this point. .. What the heck, leave the poor bride alone!
Sister took perverse pleasure in pushing her to that point. Why do brides ask families like this to shop for dresses with them?
@@kateyare4708 Why indeed - a question for the ages.
She should have left her sister at home.
I love how supportive the second family is to the bride-to-be, especially the dad, a bright smile when he saw his daughter in the dress!
I LOVE the dress hanging behind her in her interview segments! It's gorgeous
The first or second bride? I loved the one hanging behind the first bride. It was gorgeous!!;;
Opinions are not needed. Only her likes are important.
That is why she should have went shopping alone and left everyone at home.
I remember when I got married over 40 years ago. It was just my Mom and I looking at Wedding dresses.
Her sister knows she pushing her buttons but doesn't care. Ugh.
She cares. She loves pushing her buttons.
The second part of this was so sweet between father and daughter
One person wears the dress, the bride!!!!!
Yes which is why she should have gone alone.
That last bride, what a gorgeous dress, excellent taste ❤
I find it so disturbing that the families that torment the brides always look so happy about it..
It screams the “I’m the youngest child and no one listens to me”
It does but unfortunately the bride has not overgrown her teenage rebellious years and she’s almost 30 years old. 😮
It sickens me to see how her family doesn’t consider her opinion.
Something about the first family I’m trying to put my finger on. They’re opinionated, but *the whole family wears a smile while giving their opinions* 🤔
Reminds me of Southern ladies who sarcastically say 'Bless your heart!' with a smile. Something like 'we're smiling so it's okay what we say'.
Right? Kinda like chirping, smiling, stepford people?
That sister is a sadist. Maybe she got it from the parents.
And the father is still smiling while falling asleep. She really wants to be herself & her mom + sister won’t let her
Purge vibes!
The SATISFACTION when Lauren basically asked the sister to shut up!! 💯
Oh that is a beautiful dress Lauren chose.❤ Very beautiful.
Eeeeesh.... That sister...
I wanted to slap her! If you know "Lauren is about to lose it." (She said this while smiling). Then why are you pulling dresses for her and ignoring her wishes?
I went by myself to get my dress,for my final fitting I had my family and wedding party. My wedding my choice 100%.
Me too. I actually went by myself to choose my dress and then showed it to my bridesmaids on the day of my wedding. That way it was 100% all my decisions and nobody could interfere with what I imagined I wanted to look like.

@@kerrystone7375i think friends and family see themselves as the bride and want what they would wear. That’s awesome that you did it on the day of your wedding 😊
The second part is so sweet. Love the bond between the father daughter duo❤❤
You go Lauren! 💪🏼
The fact they put “Dr.” before her sisters name says everything about her
I thought exactly the same thing
Just because you are smiling when you say something or do something you shouldn’t doesn’t make it ok
The mother's smile...
I loved her in the first dress.
BAM! 💥 5:28
Awe the bridesmaids looked beautiful in their red dresses!!
I love the smile from her dad at the end.. 😊
she is so pretty!!
I find when you have an opinionated family, it’s like they want to relive their wedding and forget that they had theirs and it’s someone else’s turn, the bride.
or they missed their chance to have their own wedding, or they're just a control freak...
I got married right out of College. My parents did EVERYTHING for my wedding. I Knew it was about them. My mother even bought my wedding dress. It cost 99$ and a perfect fit off the rack. My mother's dress was 600$.

@@moniqueengleman873 so, you’re okay that you didn’t get the wedding of YOUR dreams? Does that mean if you have a daughter you will try to take over HER wedding day?
The father of family number 2 is so sweet!
"It’s not her" My favorite thing narcissists and insecure people say when you find anything that flatters you
So happy for both of these beautiful brides
Very understanding father good luck to the young bride
“I think it’s great that we voice our opinions so strongly”
That is annoyingly dumb to think when it’s not your wedding. That’s manipulative.

when the bride wore the lacey high neck dress she reminded me of mrs honey from matilda!!
Good Lord I’m so grateful my mother and sister aren’t like that!
The Dad ❤️
That older sister is very arrogant and bossy.
WHY would you bring your BOSS to your wedding dress appointment?!?!
"She'll either reject it or take it." Brilliant! Which Einstein wannabe said that?
Brides should take one family member mother sister etc makes the appointment more easier for the bride and at the end of the day or should I say the wedding day it will be a surprise to all once a veil goes on all dresses are beautiful
The sister is what we call a saboteur. She should have left mom and sister at home.
Brides shouldn't bring people with them if they don't want their opinion.
First sweet Pop wisely says nothing. 😊
That’s why I’ve always thought brides should go dress shopping on their own - unless their family and/or friends are able to get the (very simple) _”it’s the bride’s wedding, not theirs”_ base concept.
Both brides are gorgeous! Amazing figure both of them
1st dress on the first bride was stunning. IMO
It was amazing, so sad the sister and mother dumped on it straight away. It was so so flattering, super distinctive and elegant. Nothing remotely Vegas showgirl about it.
I'm so glad you voiced your opinion 'So Strongly' big sis...gave lil sis some practice doing the same!! BackAtcha! 😁
Gotta say, though. Mom knows how to smile, but not in the eyes....am I the only one seeing that?
I loved the first one! The one she chose would look so good bubbled. ( first bride).
It blows me away how the entourage feels they are the ones who should make the decisions. No family! It's the bride's choice...
That sister was a nightmare.
The staff on the show doesn't like the family having opinions, because the family encourages the bride to try on more options rather than just picking the first dress because they feel emotional about being in a wedding dress for the first time.

Yeaaaaa for the bride!!!!!
It is so strange to me that she invited her elderly male boss, the principal, to her wedding dress appointment. It is also strange to me that he accepted! It almost seems a bit inappropriate to me.
Don't bring an entourage!! Maybe a couple of people, period.
Nothing better than paying for your own dress and not having to worry about other peoples ideas. That one family got all the way under my nerves!
Why did the first sister have the big smile saying the bride is trying to stay calm but she's about to lose it? Why is that funny or a pleasure unless.........fill in the word.
Man the second dress on the first bride was perfect for her figure.
No, sister... it is NOT good that you voice your opinions so strongly. It's not YOUR dress.
La familia de la segunda novia es adorable y cálida... Realmente hermosa!!❤❤❤
La primera niña😢.... Lamento su familia no la apoye nada😢
A ambas les deseo la mayor felicidad!!!❤❤❤❤
You take your boss to your wedding dress appointment?! 😳
Thank you

1st bride - WHY did she so want to have the experience of shopping with that entourage? Putting aside the unexplained presence of her boss (say what?) why would you consider buying a dress that isn't "the one", just to have done it with them?
It’s so upsetting when you pretty much have to chastise your family and friends about what YOU want and they need to stop making the decisions.
First family, fake as hell and bossy. Second family, so much love - Dad is a sweetheart.
Too bad that the bridal store doesn't warn potential customers about having a large entourage and all the problems that arise with a "crowd". 🤷🏼♂️
Family #1 needs to mind their own business. Family #2 dad clearly understood the assignment. She's a very lucky young lady.
My father was the best to go shopping with because he had great style, was tactfully honest, and never forced anything on me that I did not like. He wanted me to look good and feel good.
2nd dress great.
Why do these brides bring all these family members , asking for trouble 🙄
I wouldn’t bring the family. Shop with your best friend… they will help you.
I would bring some family members but I have all brothers so they don’t care what I wear. But they would only want me to be conservative.
Omg toxic AF....sister needs to back off.....mom and the comment about dating 😮
That sister Dr whoever is obnoxious.
So the sister thinks its good to voice her opinion strongly but am wondering if that also applies to the bride
Yeah we need more Laure’s reaction: no letting the companions go fucking arround and telling them is my dress shut up, we had tooo many crazy idiots
Why do these adult women bring along a group of people to judge and guide them, and then complain that they are interfering.
For those saying entourage this and entourage that … please they’re here for a reason and obviously they want the best for the bride !! Ur family will be the first to praise and be honest when it has to.
"My sister is close to losing it." As she smiles and repeats how important it is for the bride's family to let their opinions be heard, loudly. Yuck. Why did the bride want THAT experience with her family.
