So glad Lori got to the root of the problem. So glad the bridesmaids were understanding. I couldn’t imagine going through my wedding without my mother’s help.
Well, imagine it. It happens and you pull through it. I had to do all the deciding and planning myself. Even my bridesmaids were just there as friends in dresses. I guess I’ve just had to be very independent.
I lost both parents only one I have left in my entire family is my older brother. I am 39 and chose to stay single with just me, My doberman and best friend... I lost my best friends 5 months ago and just lost my dog about a week ago... So I am surprised I am still thriving...
The bride realised they'd brought in the big guns and she'd pushed it too far so she turned it into a sob story. I'm sorry, I don't think that being cross with your mum would make you turn on everyone else. I think she was still harbouring a grudge about the floral bridesmaids dress!
@@cyflym11 I completely agree. I too am skeptical of the sob story. But I think the bride would have behaved the same way even if she had been thrilled with the floral dress.
I think the male consultant should have said something before that to the bride. You have to have a gentle but firm touch when you do it though. She was just plain rude and mean
@@cyflym11 sure, but u also have to understand people aren’t so black and white. She’s not a serial killer on the stand trying to manipulate the jury with a sob story. She’s just a girl trying to get married and gets frustrated with her friends. She wasn’t even the one to bring up the story herself.
@@justjaein I agree. At the end of the day this is still a reality show, and they need a source of entertainment. In every episode there’s drama of some sort, somewhere. It’s how you get viewership. As much as I love this show I do have to remind myself that a lot of the drama is probably exacerbated by the producers.
In my opinion there’s really no excuse to act this way. My mom isn’t here and we never had a healthy relationship. I still can’t imagine talking to people, especially my own friends this way. It’s just unacceptable.
@bettysstars8515 You can handle emotions differently but still attempt to be kind. There’s no excuse to be so mean, especially to be you supposedly care about. We all falter, but it’s important to take responsibility for your actions & treat those you love WITH LOVE.
edfinitely she owes the rest an apology and needs to own up to how she behaved, agree with you. then we can all be like no we understand, but you can never hide behind hurt and be like "oop well you know I was hurt and that is why i am being an a**hole to you, ok?" lol
Indeed. She's an adult, not a small child. My own mother not only didn't help me do any planning but continuously verbally abused me whenever I did something she didn't agree with. She would even get her friends to threaten me at my workplace and even harass my inlaws. Made the whole wedding planning process heavily traumatic for me. At no point did it ever occur to me to start being unpleasant to my bridesmaids - would have pushed away the people who really kept me going throughout the process.
My mom was N E V E R there for me AT ALL!! I grew up in and out of foster care, bounced from home to home, school to school,, and STILL I wouldn't DREAM of treating a friend this way!!
I agree with you, but everyone reacts in different ways to pain and trauma. It doesn't make it okay, but if they're willing to grow and change and not stay stuck in the victim-mentality, then I would consider them redeemable and worthy of forgiveness.
Of all the colors in the rainbow, yellow is the WORST on me. Not flattering to my coloring at all. I was a bridesmaid in my sister's wedding and she ended up choosing yellow bridesmaid dresses. So I sucked it up, didn't say a word about the color & used a lot of makeup on the wedding day. It was HER wedding after all, not mine. My best friend (who was also a bridesmaid) looked fabulous, the color was wonderful on her. When my oldest son got married, my DIL also chose yellow bridesmaid dresses and everyone looked great. I think yellow (depending on the shade) is very pretty for a spring wedding.
We need to get rid of this "it's my day , it's all about me mentally" regardless other people still have feeling and the right to feel comfortable, if u truly respect your friends u don't force them to feel bad about their appearance by putting them in a dress they think they looked bad in.
She did not hate the dress.. She hated that the friend had a better relationship with her Mom. Mostly the Mom choice the dress and the experience was magical
the whole “my mom isn’t giving me support” thing was such a cop out. like her friends didn’t deserve to be treated like that and just the way she said it was so mean girly
I’m glad she finally realized how special her friends are!! There are some people that not only don’t have family support but don’t have the friendship that this girl has!!
Why would anyone put up with this? If someone talk to me this way I would just turn around and leave. If you have issues go to a psychologist, nothing excuses bullying your friends like this.
She told us her bridesmaids were unsupportive… that was a lie. Now her mom is being “neglectful” of the wedding planning hmmm something tells me that isn’t the full truth either.
Lies and perception are two different things!! Just because bridesmaids SAY they are supportive, doesn’t mean they have been. They committed to try harder.
@@SD-ip2wb They did a very good job of biting their tongues while she was being very cruel to them. If they weren't trying hard to be supportive they'd have told her where she could stick her bridesmaid dresses! They clearly didn't want to make a scene and of course they were going to carry on in the same vein after she 'apologised'.
It was easier for the bride to say her friends weren’t being supportive than admit her mother wasn’t there for her. She just knew she felt unsupported ❤
The bride probably learned her rude behavior from her mother; and when the two of them try to wedding plan together, it becomes a contest of insults. So the mother bows out because she cannot get her way.
This beautiful maid of honour needed to add, 'But do not abuse me again!' to her sweet speech of support to this bride...regardless of her situation, this bride was as is said, nasty...I hope she apologized to each and every one of her bridesmaids.
Lori is a cut above for sure. What a wonderful human being. Glad the brides heart was relieved and super happy all the women just offered her love and support.
There is simply no excuse for hurling abuse at people. Whatever the reason you're hurting, you can't treat people like that. There's no guarantee people will continue to give you chances and opportunities tp repeat the offenses.
True, many people have hardships and what makes a person god hearted and exceptional is never taking out your personal frustrations onto others. Especially your best friends. Behaving that way is just going to inevitably drive people away from her.
Yep agreed, but she is human. I'm glad she got called out, she was acting out of control, like a hurt child. We all can be kinda nasty, I'm glad Lori set her straight.
I think we should also give props to Brandon for being the one to notice that this was more than just about dresses. Sometimes we can tell what is wrong but we don't have the tools or knowledge to get to the complete bottom of it and that is why we rely on our elders to give us that guidance. It's also why this bride is so hurt by her mom not being there, cause she was looking to have her opinion too cause she values it.
I wanted all of my bridesmaids in thr same dress, same color, but I *made sure* they all felt good in the dress. The dress we all picked everyone cried over bc they all looked so gorgeous. We were blessed to find a dress that complimented everyone's body type and a color that looked good on everyone. It was important to me that they felt good in the dress
So the bride doesn't like when the girls nicely say they don't like yellow, but is allowed to attack the dress she wore in her friends wedding? Smells like hypocrisy to me.
I truly feel for this bride. When my mom got married she did a destination wedding in las Vegas and didn't even invite me. Then when i attempted to plan my own wedding she wanted no part of it. I ended up eloping with my husband because the stress of family not wanting to have any part on ether side was really starting to get too both of us. Eloping was so much easier and stress free. Do I wish I had that special day with my mom and both families? Yes, of course I do. Do I wish I had that moment or that dress? Yes! But I would rather sacrifice one day in order to have many more peaceful future ones with the love of my life and less strife between loved ones.
I wore a yellow dress as my sister's matron of honor. I loved that dress so much! It was a creamy buttery yellow that looked beautiful on all of the bridesmaids.
The best decision I made for my wedding was sending my bridesmaids and maid of honour (all sisters who live out of town) the basic colours of the wedding and telling them to each find a dress that that particular person could re-wear. There were five dresses on five women, all of them different, and it was perfect! They looked stunning, everyone, and none of them looked out of place. They also, as it was around Christmas, carried simple hurricane candle holders with one candle each. It was like a fairytale.
Yellow. Seriously passive-aggressive. Almost no one looks good in bright yellow. She's lucky all these women haven't bailed on her. Sorry about the mom thing, so seat her at the back of the church, but this is not how you handle issues, by turning on your friends. Good luck, groom.
Good job Lori and experience like this can really shape how someone behaves from that moment on. She really does have such lovely friends… I hope she cherishes them.
She's now been married for about 11 years, and they're pregnant. She seems to have lots of friends and a good relationship with her mom. I'd like to hear more from her about this drama.
Bride here… it’s all scripted. Me and my friends are closer than ever still and I’ve been married 11 years tomorrow with a beautiful baby girl. Trust me, none of this was real. The dresses were planted and things I said were out of fun with laughs from my bridesmaids but we’re turned into something hateful. Reality TV is anything but real.
So she purposefully chooses a color that she knows is difficult to work with and that all the bridesmaids collectively hate, and then proceeds to call every yellow dress awful and makes fun of the color...? Something seems fishy. Especially when she said "That's why you stuck me in that horrible dress" she was DEFINITELY projecting. She is just a rude person. No excuses.
I get it. I have a really unsupportive mother who put a stink on every aspect of my wedding. But I'd never think to treat my friends like this. This bride is very lucky to have these ladies as her friends.
If the bride had so much nasty words to say about her bridesmaid then it's best she cancelled the wedding until her mom support her decision to get married because it's not her bridesmaids fault
Friends and family only know what you till them! If you don't tell they can't help with what you need! Lori you do a great job with your brides and the folks you work with...
That bridezilla is quite the narcissist. I'd nope out of this wedding...and "friendship" too. She's projecting all her mommy issue anger towards her bridesmaids. Real friends don't do that.
People lash out when they are hurting - real friends break through that. These ladies did -- I don't excuse her attitude, and she definitely should apologize for some of those comments (likely made more dramatic due to editing), but to suggest that a life-long friend lashes out once and you drop them? Disagree
@@seriliaykilel They weren't "lifelong" friends. They met as teenagers in high school. They look 20ish now. And listening to this video, it sure didn't sound like this was the FIRST time she's acted this way. She didn't get the perfect mother. Neither did I, but I NEVER hurt people who cared about me because of it.
How dare she be human. She’s not a narcissist, she’s human. I’ve got an empathic nature so I can see when she’s simply feeling hurt and suffering and projecting yes projecting but she’s not projecting on anything other than choice of dress. You just sound cruel
These are AWESOME bridesmaids. I had two bridesmaids and one of them is the sweetest person you’d ever meet and the other… she was my maid of honor. She insulted my ring calling it cheap, didn’t give a speech (the other one did), always tried to make everything about her, and just wasn’t a good friend to begin with. I regret making her my maid of honor. She never deserved it.
@@grenade8572 well, I THOUGHT I knew who she was when I asked her, but the more I got to know her the worse I realized she was. And the other girl, I knew her about just as much as I did the other girl (just a little less) and the more I got to know her the more I adored her. I didn’t think my husband and I would have groomsmen or bridesmaids until he asked his best friend. So I chose the girl I knew a bit more. What I should’ve done was wait until closer to time.
@@Rachel59435 What if this is the way she always behaves when under stress? Would that make her okay? Would it make it okay to Lash out and wound those who care about her? Personally, I don't think so.
These girls all needed this, this appointment was about far more than finding a bridesmaid dress. Lori should be a psychologist, she’s so amazing! If I ever get the chance to get married, my dream is to find my dress at this store, even though it would mean flying to the other side of the world to do it! ♥️♥️
PEOPLE WHO R HURTING/HAVE BEEN HURT OFTEN R FORCED TO KEEP IT ALL CLOSED UP UNTIL UNFORTUNATELY THEY EXPLODED + OTHER PEOPLE/ SOME 1 ELSE ENDS UP UNHAPPY+EVEN SHOCKED.
I do feel bad for these bridesmaids, as much pain she may be feeling towards her mom she can not project it like this to her friends. She has an incredibly supportive group of friends there that are willing to give her their all and she throws it back in their faces and it must have been incredibly embarrassing for them. Hoping this is just a very stressed out bride and she is nicer to them outside of the wedding planning
Yellow is an appallingly hard color to wear. It takes a particular complexion to carry off yellow, and not many people have it. My mother wasn't really interested in helping me plan anything. She was still processing the grief of my dad passing away, so I pretty much did it by myself. I wish she had been more supportive, but in the end, I paid for my dress, so I picked what I wanted, even though she wasn't crazy about it. I looked at a lot of bridesmaids dresses to find one I felt would be flattering to both my bridesmaids, and that they could wear again. My sister wore her dress later for several voice recitals, and received many compliments on it. Lori's been doing this job long enough to know when something's up.
My brides maids dresses were hand made. I told them go find a pattern you like, keeping in mind my 8 yr old niece (Jr. brides maid) would be wearing the same dress and that's what we'll go with. They were happy with them. We did the same when my maid of honor got married. The only difference between the MOH and Bridemaid were the flowers.
I soon changed my mind about this group once Lori stepped in smoothed things over and built a bridge. I hope the bride has an outstanding wedding day and her marriage is a long and happy one.
I really don't think she meant to attack them, but in the moment she was projecting a lot of her anger and frustration at them because they didn't look like her idea of perfect, so she felt out of control. She's human, but I am glad she was called out. I hope her day went well and she felt supported, she seems to have great friends that support her.
She was just envious of her and how her mother was with her friend. Then making fun of the bridesmaid dresses???? Come on now. She's bitter and didn't deserve sympathy.
@@SD-ip2wb She did not si much criticize the dresses as disparage her friends' looks. What's wrong with just saying "This is not what i had in mind"? Even "This is not the best look for you" would have been less vicious.
Most wedding stylists and shop owners are truly Shamanic healers. Gok, Jo, Al, Randy, Lori, Monte. It's not about a dress. It's about HEALING THE ISSUES.
I completely understand the Bride with the whole Mother thing. That's exactly how it is with me. It really hurts too. But of course that's no excuse to be nasty to those there to support you. Prayers for her though. It's definitely a VERY HARD place to be in. And hurts VERY MUCH.
You have the best group of friends and bridesmaids. I am so sorry about your mom not being that involved with planning your wedding. And that dress will look amazing on your bridesmaids.
How do these women even have friends ? I wish i had this many friends to be in my special moment. Like girl chill your not all that and a bag of chips 😂
Bride: My bridesmaids don't support me
Bridesmaids: we love this one

I agree. It would hurt not having my mom be apart of planning my wedding.
Hurting people hurt people. Thanks to Lori for digging deeper to find out why the bride was behaving so badly.
The bride realised they'd brought in the big guns and she'd pushed it too far so she turned it into a sob story. I'm sorry, I don't think that being cross with your mum would make you turn on everyone else. I think she was still harbouring a grudge about the floral bridesmaids dress!

I do think yellow is a very BOLD choice in any dress. However, there is usually always a compromise and the bride did not go about it the right way.
Certainly not a color that suits everyone
the yellow dresses in this show are all too bright. A soft pastel yellow color would be lovely especially for spring or fall weddings.

So she purposefully chooses a color that she knows is difficult to work with and that all the bridesmaids collectively hate, and then proceeds to call every yellow dress awful and makes fun of the color...? Something seems fishy. Especially when she said "That's why you stuck me in that horrible dress" she was DEFINITELY projecting. She is just a rude person. No excuses.
I get it. I have a really unsupportive mother who put a stink on every aspect of my wedding. But I'd never think to treat my friends like this. This bride is very lucky to have these ladies as her friends.
The red dress was stunning and classy!!!
If the bride had so much nasty words to say about her bridesmaid then it's best she cancelled the wedding until her mom support her decision to get married because it's not her bridesmaids fault
She would die single then.
Lori handled that beautifully.
Yellow is a tough color for a lot of people to pull off. I’m fair and yellow just makes me look monochromatic.
She has the sweetest friends. Good and sweet ☺️
Wouldn't it be better to work this out before shopping.
my thoughts exactly lmao
Friends and family only know what you till them! If you don't tell they can't help with what you need! Lori you do a great job with your brides and the folks you work with...
Whats wrong if you buy from local wallmart. She is doing as if she is royal.
That bridezilla is quite the narcissist.
I'd nope out of this wedding...and "friendship" too. She's projecting all her mommy issue anger towards her bridesmaids. Real friends don't do that.
People lash out when they are hurting - real friends break through that. These ladies did -- I don't excuse her attitude, and she definitely should apologize for some of those comments (likely made more dramatic due to editing), but to suggest that a life-long friend lashes out once and you drop them? Disagree
@@seriliaykilel They weren't "lifelong" friends. They met as teenagers in high school. They look 20ish now. And listening to this video, it sure didn't sound like this was the FIRST time she's acted this way. She didn't get the perfect mother. Neither did I, but I NEVER hurt people who cared about me because of it.
She doesn’t have much choice - it’s called trauma.
How dare she be human. She’s not a narcissist, she’s human. I’ve got an empathic nature so I can see when she’s simply feeling hurt and suffering and projecting yes projecting but she’s not projecting on anything other than choice of dress. You just sound cruel
@@SD-ip2wb How dare someone expression opinion that you don’t agree with! How dare they!!
I'm not surprised her mum doesn't want to get involved. She's probably been shopping with Little Miss Spiteful before and knows how it will go.
Amazed she still has bridesmaids!!
If I was a bridesmaid, I would wear WHATEVER the bride wanted me to wear, I wouldn’t give any feedback, I’d just do it because it’s HER wedding.
These poor girls, if you need to rent a mom, I'm available 💛💛💛
Every bridesmaid dress looks like something middle schoolers would wear to a jr. high prom.
My mom did nothing for my wedding. Thankful for my MIL. But I did it all myself.
My mom had schizophrenia and agoraphobia, she attended my wedding by listening on the phone. And I was so happy she could do that!
She has the sweetest group of friends.
My best friend would NEVER take that kind of abuse from me. We are like sisters…. No excuses I’m sorry.
I want friends like that
These are AWESOME bridesmaids.
I had two bridesmaids and one of them is the sweetest person you’d ever meet and the other… she was my maid of honor. She insulted my ring calling it cheap, didn’t give a speech (the other one did), always tried to make everything about her, and just wasn’t a good friend to begin with. I regret making her my maid of honor. She never deserved it.
True question : why did you choosed her as bride of honor in the first place ? You didn't know how she really was ?
@@grenade8572 well, I THOUGHT I knew who she was when I asked her, but the more I got to know her the worse I realized she was. And the other girl, I knew her about just as much as I did the other girl (just a little less) and the more I got to know her the more I adored her.
I didn’t think my husband and I would have groomsmen or bridesmaids until he asked his best friend. So I chose the girl I knew a bit more. What I should’ve done was wait until closer to time.
@@saylorc4647 It's insane how bad people can look nice when we don't know them very well. Props to the nice girl who was a good maid. :)
@@grenade8572 I’ve already met more since then... There’s a lot of people like that sadly.
And yeah! She’s still a good friend of mine today!
These friends are way too good for her… she is jealous and toxic
Lori just waltzed in there and shot to the heart of the issue in about 2 seconds!!
Does she have a Masters in psychology or something???!!! Wow
I remember this episode and I felt bad for her! I don’t think she’s as bad as people were saying, there was more to allll of it
Not the music change when bridesmaids enter and when the bride opens her mouth XD 💀
her maid of honors wedding looked beautiful and i adored her dresses 4:07
omg right
Yet again Lori and Brian save the day cuz that bride was on garbage mode
I don't see how a man can marry her. She's mean.
birds of a feather flock together, he probably loves her like this
Maybe he is mean just like her.
Clearly you didn't watch the whole episode 🤨🤨
@@Rachel59435 What if this is the way she always behaves when under stress? Would that make her okay? Would it make it okay to Lash out and wound those who care about her? Personally, I don't think so.
@@lysem4392 watch the full episode.
These girls all needed this, this appointment was about far more than finding a bridesmaid dress. Lori should be a psychologist, she’s so amazing! If I ever get the chance to get married, my dream is to find my dress at this store, even though it would mean flying to the other side of the world to do it! ♥️♥️
Laura is so kind. I wish I had a caring loving friend like her 🫶
PEOPLE WHO R HURTING/HAVE
BEEN HURT OFTEN R FORCED TO KEEP IT ALL CLOSED UP
UNTIL UNFORTUNATELY THEY
EXPLODED + OTHER PEOPLE/
SOME 1 ELSE ENDS UP UNHAPPY+EVEN SHOCKED.
Seems like the bride needs to take some time to reflect on herself because she is not ready to get married.
That bride was so manipulative
That girl was rude to her best friend and she saying it was bad hen she wearing bright yellow!
I do feel bad for these bridesmaids, as much pain she may be feeling towards her mom she can not project it like this to her friends. She has an incredibly supportive group of friends there that are willing to give her their all and she throws it back in their faces and it must have been incredibly embarrassing for them. Hoping this is just a very stressed out bride and she is nicer to them outside of the wedding planning
Yellow is an appallingly hard color to wear. It takes a particular complexion to carry off yellow, and not many people have it. My mother wasn't really interested in helping me plan anything. She was still processing the grief of my dad passing away, so I pretty much did it by myself. I wish she had been more supportive, but in the end, I paid for my dress, so I picked what I wanted, even though she wasn't crazy about it. I looked at a lot of bridesmaids dresses to find one I felt would be flattering to both my bridesmaids, and that they could wear again. My sister wore her dress later for several voice recitals, and received many compliments on it. Lori's been doing this job long enough to know when something's up.
aw her best friend really said i would give you my house… she cried when the bride cried. she realy cares
My brides maids dresses were hand made. I told them go find a pattern you like, keeping in mind my 8 yr old niece (Jr. brides maid) would be wearing the same dress and that's what we'll go with. They were happy with them. We did the same when my maid of honor got married. The only difference between the MOH and Bridemaid were the flowers.
She's so lucky to have such good friends. I literally don't have any friends. If I get married I'm on my own, won't have any bridesmaids or help
I hope that Lori is doing ok after she had that fall. Is SYTTD Atlanta still on? Always loved the crew ❤
I soon changed my mind about this group once Lori stepped in smoothed things over and built a bridge.
I hope the bride has an outstanding wedding day and her marriage is a long and happy one.
She was so receptive to the dresses as soon as she expressed what was in her heart.
Bride is jelly of her bridesmaids
And? That’s human
I really don't think she meant to attack them, but in the moment she was projecting a lot of her anger and frustration at them because they didn't look like her idea of perfect, so she felt out of control. She's human, but I am glad she was called out. I hope her day went well and she felt supported, she seems to have great friends that support her.
Of course she ment to do it
This is all scripted. For TV drama. You people read way too much into it.
she wasn’t terrible for the first like 2 minutes and then BAM she just flipped on her matron of honor
She was just envious of her and how her mother was with her friend. Then making fun of the bridesmaid dresses???? Come on now. She's bitter and didn't deserve sympathy.
They all should've bailed on her. I don't think I've ever seen a bride to b as rude as she was
Why because she’s a Human Being? How is criticising dresses the same as being nasty & rude and a B
@@SD-ip2wb She did not si much criticize the dresses as disparage her friends' looks. What's wrong with just saying "This is not what i had in mind"? Even "This is not the best look for you" would have been less vicious.
@@SD-ip2wb there are ways to criticise a dress without calling names
Most wedding stylists and shop owners are truly Shamanic healers. Gok, Jo, Al, Randy, Lori, Monte. It's not about a dress. It's about HEALING THE ISSUES.
A bowl of grapes with a room full of burning AC smell, binging “say yes to the dress” at 3 am is my ideal Friday night
I completely understand the Bride with the whole Mother thing. That's exactly how it is with me. It really hurts too. But of course that's no excuse to be nasty to those there to support you. Prayers for her though. It's definitely a VERY HARD place to be in. And hurts VERY MUCH.
Poor girl. She wants comfort.
F**k her! she had no right being rude to her bridesmaids and taking her personal problems out on them
You have the best group of friends and bridesmaids. I am so sorry about your mom not being that involved with planning your wedding. And that dress will look amazing on your bridesmaids.
Such a great bunch of friends!
How do these women even have friends ? I wish i had this many friends to be in my special moment. Like girl chill your not all that and a bag of chips 😂
