Me either. I completely saved up and paid for my dress. I don't have a high paying job either, but I shoveled what I could away. I got a beautiful dress for just over 1000 and still had money left over for alterations. I couldn't imagine taking out a loan for just a dress. Take out a loan for something worth while, like a car or a home.
Absolutely agree. I've seen brides take out huge loans to pay for a 'fairytale' wedding. If they only knew who much it's not worth it. It's a major mistake and having those repayments draining your new marriage, on top of every other new cost, will often taint the memory of the day. Be smart, save up or budget down.
Kk dragon • “I love that the bride’s mother stuck up for her daughter and respected her choice(s).” I agree completely. The tattoo was not done well, but the point is, to the bride, it represents her family’s lineage & culture. It is just as important as the Jewish things that the groom’s family is trying to push on her!
@@starry_yoongs4999 You are way too stupid to be here. I wrote 3 words in my previous comment, I offered no criticism, yet you're telling me to give them a break. So I shouldn't correct them?

Lori is a real Gem. When she said "Look how you blended your family with this. The strap is for your new family, the strapless is for your family and the veil is for all of us because we Love it." Everyone was in tears. You can say what you want but, culture is important 2022 or not. I think this young lady made a very wise decision for Both Families. Blessings to this new bride and Both her families......xoxoxoxo
Unfortunately I'm going to have to disagree. She is not a Jewish girl and should not be expected to be held up to that religion's standards and culture. You can respect religion and opinion without conforming to it. My fiancè's family is very active Mormon. I'm not wearing their modest dresses and standards of clothing when we get married despite the beliefs and feelings of the family. We are our own unit and we make decisions based on us. It doesn't sound like her fiancé asked her to cover. Laying down these boundaries with parents are essential, especially if they are preparing to raise children together with either family being involved in that process.
I thought her mother came off as very mean-spirited. The bride to be understood and was willing to cover her tattoo for the wedding. No one asked her to get rid of her tattoo, just to cover it for the wedding. If she couldn't do that compromise, that marriage is going to be an unhappy one. This bride was smart. She received points from her new family. Regardless of what you think, it's both families, not just the bride's. Something as simple as temporarily covering a tattoo is not the end of the world.
Irish heritage my arse! Those are four leaf clovers 🍀 not shamrock ☘️. There is nothing Irish about a four leaf clover! It’s as close to a pickle as a shamrock. If your going to get all indignant about “your” culture you’ve got to do your research.

Yes, but she won’t have a good day if all the bride hears is how bad the dress is, getting flack on her wedding dress all day. And whether it’s enjoyable or not, it’s a family dynamic she needs to manage and it’s the consultant’s jobs to make sure she’s happy by making sure they manage her family as well. They achieve letting the woman wear what she wants, and have a good day, by making sure they manage her family’s responses.
@@BarelyNoticeable Of course, which is why the family needs to learn that not everything is about them. If all they are talking about at the wedding is "how bad the dress is", they don't need to come. At the end of the day, loudly complaining about someone else's choices for an event that isn't about you is tacky and disrespectful.
Fr... Usually what happens on the show is a not-your-wedding problem. But in this case it's a not-your-child problem as well. So what she's religious, the bride isn't and she shouldn't be told what to do as an adult. That tat is so small anyways.
Kiraleisha 167 That is a great story & was very intelligent of you to express your values at the beginning. Had you put up with it for awhile & then opposed her, she might have caused a big disruption that could have divided family members! Parenting is similar - you have to start with manners, rules, morals, & values, as soon as it is possible for the child to understand. Parents that are lax for years until there is a major problem in high school, have already lost the battle. It sounds as if you are or are going to be a wonderful mother (if that is what you want).
My ex MIL called the preacher and asked what she could provide in the way of food because she didn't think that my mother wouldn't provide enough! Smart preacher, he said to ask my mom. She was Italian and expected sit down meals at weddings. We didn't have that kind of money nor did I want that kind of reception. What she should have been more worried about is making sure her only boy was man enough to be married! He wasn't and 40+ years later still isn't. When it was time to cut the cake, he didn't want to because he 'didn't like cake'. His mom had to come convince him to get up and go do the cake cutting ceremony. It went downhill from there. I wish I knew what kind of MIL to be careful of at that time. I would have never married him.

I want my mother in law there when I’m trying out :-) She only has boys and she’s the sweetest woman, so ofc I’ll invite her! I know she would just watch and enjoy the day
I just got two different perspectives from the replies on this comment. I guess in general, it all depends on the circumstances and God help those who have to deal with those crossing the line like this mother in law in the video.
RexSixteen that’s so sweet. I’m lucky that I have a niece and I hope to be asked along to go shopping with her. Having said that, if you as my future daughter in law told me why you wanted me along, I would probably come with you. I would however have the good sense to keep my trap firmly shut!
"I can't do this because of my religion" is religious freedom. "YOU can't do this because of my religion" is rude and infringing on the bride's freedom of religion. Freedom of religion is also freedom FROM religion.
She didn't say that and if the show had anyone there to explain the issue, non-Jewish people would find out that the mother-in-law was actually trying to spare her daughter-in-law from criticism later.
@@juliem.679 The bride clearly just wants to do her thing and not obide to anyone's religious bullshit. Never take shit from people you would never ever ask for advice.
I’m Jewish and I have a tattoo. She’s using religion as an excuse to point out things SHE doesn’t like. note that i never said the bible or torah didn’t say that. i know they do. but people cherry pick the bible all the time. “i choose to hate even though the bible said love thy neighbor because i don’t like gay people.” that’s cherry picking. and this woman is doing that. she doesn’t like tattoos so she’s using religion as an excuse.
In all fairness, in the First Covenant there is Leviticus 19:28 about the tatoos. Not sure how far that is up for interpretation, nor if there is something similar for Muslims. Nor what to do if you already got inked.
my boyfriend is jewish both ethically (he’s half Hebrew) and religious and he has 9 tattoos. this lady is crazy. he’s not like crazy crazy religious but he’s the basic jewish man
I wonder if the mother in law is making a fuss over the tattoo to cover up her displeasure of him marrying a non Jewish woman. Considering maternal inheritance of Jewishness.
For real! If it’s not coming out of your bank account, suck it up, put a smile on your face, and tell your daughter in law she looks beautiful. Don’t ruin the whole experience for her with your nasty attitude and unnecessary comments.
@@carolynfranklin1447 Yes and that's not how it works, now you can CHOOSE whether to also be converted into the religion but if she doesnt then it doesnt mean the marriage is void. Shes a Christian.

There’s no reason anyone should have a say in the dress. I mean it’s ridiculous how many mothers and sisters feel so entitled to “their vision” for someone else’s wedding. It just comes off as so narcissistic to think YOUR opinion matters more than what the bride and groom actually want.
My future DIL asked me to come with her when she goes to try on dresses, along with her mom, daughter and future step-daughter. So happy she thought to ask. I just want her to choose a dress that SHE loves and feels great in. She's a wonderful girl.
@@duckyluvsyou335 When I got married, I valued my family's opinion. They might see something I don't, or if I'm between two, knowing which one they think is nicer would help. Because even though the most important is to find a dress that you find beautiful, most brides also care that others find them beautiful as well. (Contrary to what this show portrays, I never had that "this is the one" moment, I made sure to try a ton of dresses and there were many contenders that I was completely in love with). I only brought my mom and my sister though. While I love my friends, their opinion on my wedding dress was not very important to me. I asked my MIL if she wanted to be at my dress appointments but she declined because she didn't want me to feel pressured which I thought was really thoughtful of her :)
@@monkiram If the bride wants her families opinions, that’s great and it’s fine when the family members are polite and respect when the bride loves a dress even if they don’t like it. My point was that families like the ones on this show just make brides feel self conscious, make brides choose dresses they don’t even really want, and so many are just flat out rude and hateful.
I’m An Orthodox Jew and this lady’s issue with the Tattoo is utterly ridiculous . The bride is not Jewish therefore Jewish laws do not apply to her at all.
Did the MIL SAY halachah applied to her? No, but the implication is that Jewish guests at the wedding will see the tattoo if the bride chooses a revealing dress and that MIL doesn't want any remarks or controversy at the wedding over it because (this is my inference because nothing actually got spelled out past this remark of hers once they edited the show) it could reflect badly on her son and her family, in general.
We don't have to knock the Jewish religion here, the mother in law is at fault. I'm jewish and yes tattoos aren't permitted BUT THE BRIDE ISNT JEWISH. The laws don't apply to her and I honestly think the mother just doesn't like the bride.
THANK YOU! I’m Jewish too and seeing so many people knocking the Jewish religion and culture who don’t know anything about this issue is so frustrating. Especially because there’s a lack of understanding about how Judaism is not equivalent to Christianity (whichever version).
"Our religion does not like you to desecrate your body." YOUR EARS ARE PIERCED. Putting a new hole in yourself seems a little more "desecrating" to me than getting drawn on.
@mary truhan I think people need to stfu regarding pushing their views/ values on others. Regarding your comment though, piercings do leave scars even when closed up, so I don't see your point in trying to differentiate them from tattoos.
@Mary Truhan idk, my parents pierced my ears when I was like 3 months old and that piercing has never closed. Pretty sure that's part of why they do it so young too

Jhalak Shishodia Agreed. She has the sweetest soul. I’m glad it all worked out for everyone. Very rare to actually see a kind, warm, beautiful person these days.
I definitely agree that the mother in-law was being ridiculous with the tattoo, but the fact the bride said, "I'm not picking a dress based upon whether I have a tattoo or not," means so much more. ❤️ Yes, it's covered, but the tattoo isn't important, it's the love between the bride and the groom. And yeah, that sounds cheesy, so what? It's beautiful.
I hope the groom is prepared to stand up for his future wife when his mom oversteps her boundary because you know its going to happen. If he doesn't this couple will not last.
Wedding preparations can be a difficult time since its the brining together of 2 families. In this case, religious rules and tradition, can determine what the future will be like. Especially when children come into play. Its true its the brides day, but it's their marriage. The middle ground is a good place to start.
If you have to take out a loan to pay for a dress, honey you’re off on a bad foot in your marriage. Ppl who go into debt for a wedding....I don’t understand.
tabs157 you could also consider eloping! I was going to go the courthouse route until I decided I wanted gorgeous pictures. The dress, “venue” (Joshua Tree National Park), officiant, HMUA, and photographer was all less than $4k. Just make sure to do it how you want it with no added stress from other people or finances 😊
The way the mother keeps looking at the mother in law whenever she mentions the tattoo is very funny to me. It's like she is trying her best not to pop off on the mother in law 😂
I can say this from experience. If you have a problem with ANYTHING the bride wants DON’T SAY ANYTHING. It’s not YOUR wedding. My mother and family nearly ruined my entire bridal experience from the day I tried on dresses (mother said I looked like a stuffed sausage in casing) to my wedding day when they all thought it was their day instead of mine. Literally didn’t feel like it was my day until I got in the limo with my husband after the ceremony.
Well, you probably DID look like a stuffed sausage in a casing. Do you want a MOTHER who loves you, and cares about how you look? Or polite "yes man" that will tell you what you want to hear.
He fell in love with her tattoo, he married her with her tattoo, they got babies with the tattoo.....to hell what his mother thinks. For one, it's the two of them getting married, not his mother. I love how her mother said it boldly that she wants to make sure her daughter gets what she wants
AND PLEASE TELL ME WHICH RELIGION they are raising the children in? The BRIDE also KNEW he and his family were JEWISH and SHE SHOULD HAVE found out about that religion, even attended services with him. I think she knew---WHEN you are getting married there are TWO people, A BRIDE AND A GROOM they both have families. BOTH families should be respected if they want it to work. She found the perfect dress, it respects her Groom's family and THE GROOM and started the marriage out on good terms. MARRIAGE IS ALL ABOUT COMPROMISE and if you don't know that then you ae looking at a high chance of divorce. SHE LOOKED GREAT IN THE DRESS AND TWICE AS GOOD TO THE GROOM BECAUSE SHE RESPECTED HIS MOM.

In certain religions, a marriage is a religious ceremony. Sometimes, there are certain dress code requirements that one must meet. If a person can't do that, then that person should not marry someone of that religion.

The Jewish MIL was incredibly rude. As a mom to two sons I felt honored and elated to be included in the wedding dress shopping trips. I loved both bride-to-be’s choices but even if I wouldn’t have, I would have never disrespected THEIR choice of a dress. The second couple taking out a loan for a wedding dress? 😮 I hope they have learned the value of a budget since then 😉
I’m catholic and I don’t ever want a tattoo but if others want them great, it makes them happy and I will say they do look really cool and it’s even cooler that a lot of them have special meanings.
i know i keep thinking about how she's going to treat her grandkids if they don't follow the Jewish faith to the letter and how many time those kids are probably going to end up being put down by her their whole lives and God if they ever get tattoos it's going to being raining h*llfire
Lori is truly a magical woman, she always knows how to not only get families to agree but also make the bride feel beautiful & like her wants are more than valid (which a lot of families don’t do).
exactly! No way am I taking a loan out for any aspect of the wedding if I ever get married. I will save and spend the money that I have! I had a cousin who basically had a $15,000 budget... until the credit card got involved and it was over $30,000 by the end. That didn't include the private island for a week in Fiji for the honeymoon or the week after for staying in New Zealand (we're Australian). It took them years to pay it off and now they are separated. No way no how should anyone go down that round!
I came searching for this comment! I couldn’t imagine getting a loan for a dress 🤯 I also can’t imagine spending thousands on a dress or wedding either which is why I eloped. I had a gorgeous dress, “venue” (Joshua Tree National Park), and a photographer all less than $4k

Can we all agree that this disagreement will not end on the dress?? If the mother-in-law was already so strict in terms of this tattoo and everything, what more when it comes to her grand children? a lot of disagreement will come in terms of how these children will be disciplined and I do believe that the husband and the kids will be at the middle of this two colliding stones..😑
I imagine if she was this controlling over covering a tattoo it will only get worse when they get married. If the bride doesn't put her foot down and have a husband who supports her its going to get ugly :(
Mj Machie....fully agree with you, the couple will have to set up very firm rules and establish from the start what values are important for their new family and both need to stand up for them....but I fear potential disagreement ahead of them especially when it is about the children/holidays etc. What I really do not understand is that the mother in law argues that her rejection of a tattoo said is based on her religion. She said (as far as I understood) that a tattoo is not allowed in the jewish religion as it “disintegrates” the body. Yet the same religion promotes or even requires male circumcision at a young age in order to enter a religious life. Circumcision is a non-revocable, life-long change to a human body and usually carried out well below the legal age of consent. A tattoo is revocable and only skin-deep thus superficial design and legally only allowed as off age of consent which the bride respected as she was 18 yrs old when she got hers. Ambiguity in standards ? I wish the couple all the best and that they enjoy their Hollywood themed wedding.
@@charlie1567 not that I pretend to fully understand this, but the circumcision is meant as a sign/part of the covenant with God. A sign that this "God thing" goes deep and affects every aspect of your life, even the children you will have. The tatoos however are a heathen practice, the very opposite you might say, and one of the things commanded not to do because those outside the covenant practice it as part of their religion. To my best knowledge, that is. Haven't read/thought about this in ages...
@@thekingsdaughter4233 The Bible did discourage tattoos and other markings, including piercings, because of the often pagan reasons and symbols associated with the practices. If we're not doing it for idol worship, we should be good. Also, I hope the groom's mother takes heed of Genesis, where the couple is no longer bound by parental authority, putting the marriage as top priority.
That tattoo is only the first thing she'll have to compromise on with MIL! She should have stood her ground, because now MIL thinks she's won and she will find another issue and another.
Wait untill they have children and her family wants a baptism/christening or it comes time for them to choose religion. She is going to have problems with how they raise them as far as religion and values.
First of all the mother in law shouldn't interfere like that. Second of all, there is a special make up which covers up tatoos. Film stars use it all the time. So, she could have chosen a dress to her liking and cover up the tatoo for the wedding.
@@tinydancer7426 yes, I did say that first of all the mother in law shouldn't interfere. However, seen that the bride wants to please her and hide the tattoo, they could just use makeup instead of changing her dress style.
This is an indication of the future of their entire marriage. Her compromising to appease that mother in law. That mother in law is going to be hell to deal with if they have children.
She could have chosen any dress she wanted and just used some camouflage makeup on the tattoo. All that carrying on was totally unnecessary. Enjoy your new mother inlaw sweetie. Bless her heart.
i mean, as someone raised jewish, i do get it from MIL perspective, but uhhhh, yea, MIL is being a tad overbearing, its not like shes converted or its in a temple anyways >.> plus piercings arent allowed either soooo
TBH, I would have gone for the beautiful strapless. Daughter in law is an adult and the fact she has a tat is actually none of MIL's business.

@@danizucker2350 And MIL is sitting there showing earrings in her *pierced* ears, so she has no room to talk about "following the rules." She just doesn't like tats and probably that's because she really doesn't want her son to marry an Irish not Jewish girl.

@Fìfì Fẹ́mi Agree? So random - also, Judaism is not an evangelical religion - in fact, it discourages conversion - at no point does it require (or even encourage?) asking people who aren't Jewish to practice Judaism.
“I want the tattoo to be covered.” She probably also wants to go on the honeymoon and move in with them I bet too. Since she’s talking about things that are not about her that she wants control of.
As a bridal consultant, I would have snuffed this fight out in the waiting room by saying, “if covering the tattoo is a requirement, they make make up for that specific purpose. Now let’s move on.”

Maybe the problem wasn't about religious? I wanted to have a tattoo long ago and my mother said that I can never do it because it would remind her of the Holocaust... And my family is kinda religious 💁
I really couldn't, COULDN'T care less about your culture. Whatever your religion is, if i'm the one getting married, you don't have a single SAY. You're JUST a mother in law, stay in your lane, my relationship with your son is your somewhat your business, but my dress ain't.
Lori & Monte are absolutely an amazing team. Outside of helping the the bride find a dress, they do a mind control over the families that Sigmund Freud could've learned a thing or two.

@@shunohh Choosing a dress that exposes the tattoo makes it clear to traditional Jewish guests and family that the groom chose a non-Jewish bride.

I love how she complained about the tattoo and yet had her ears pierced. She literally punctured her skin, "desecrating" her body not just once, but twice.
@Z Q Piercings are considered non-permanent because if you take the earring or nose rings or what have you out, the flesh will eventually close up, so they are okay under Jewish law. A tattoo is permanent and therefore is considered on the same level as cutting yourself to create scars, or artificial implants, or chopping off a finger (which was done in some cultures as a sign of mourning.) Henna is okay, tattoos not.
B nope. Desecrate - to treat (a sacred place or thing) with violent disrespect; violate. Circumcision is a holy thing in the Jewish tradition so it can’t be defined as a desecration.
circumcision was done not just for religious practice as a holy ritual (opposite of desecration) but also a way to prevent infection in times when people weren’t the most hygienic. i personally as a jewish person don’t see why we need to do it in the modern day and i personally think it’s kinda messed up but there is a good historical basis for it’s benefits at the time and holy nature
it depends on the mother in law. Rude mother in laws should not be invited but there is such a thing as a kind mother in law. My future mother in law is amazing and sweet and i feel so blessed to have her in my life. I would invite her to my fitting in a heart beat.
If you've ever watched this show before, you should know that the mothers tend to be more than a little difficult, and quite frequently the mother in law is supportive of the bride to be.
This HAS to be staged. Considering the MIL has no problem with the wedding being held at a theater and not a temple, a tattoo SHOULD NOT bother her this much. The only mention the Torah makes of a tattoo is Leviticus 19:28 “You shall not make gashes in your flesh for the dead nor incise any marks on yourself: I am the Lord.” Rabbi’s have very conflicting views on what this passage means, whether it means to not tattoo one’s self at ALL, or to refrain only from tattoos that refer to God, considering ear piercing is not controversial at all. This is why MOST Jewish cemeteries do allow people with tattoos to be buried there, it’s a common myth that none do, you’re more likely to find one that does than one that doesn’t.
@@bek2100 Weddings are OFTEN held on the synagogue grounds. Depending on the families, some choose to uphold the ancient tradition of having it at the groom’s house where it used to be stated “the groom’s father built special quarters for the married couple.” However many Jewish people, both reform and orthodox, choose to have the wedding ceremony itself on synagogue grounds (generally in a courtyard) because the chuppah is already set up under an open sky to be in direct contact with the stars. The entire wedding they’re explaining is unequivocally not a Jewish ceremony. From the bride and groom having the same reception, to getting married indoors. For a mother that claims to be this strictly Jewish, there are a LOT of other things about this wedding she would take issue with that aren’t just the tattoo.
@@maggiequinncloud who said the chupah is not outside? Besides I bet that tattoo of the Irish things screams Christianity just as much as wearing a cross. Anyway it's painful enough for her that her grandchildren won't be Jewish, no need to rub it in her face...
@@bek2100 Even if the chuppah is outside, the reception itself (them having it together) is very unorthodox. I’m Irish and while I don’t have any tattoos screaming it, I’m certainly not a Christian. I’m pagan, my lifelong best friend is Jewish, and I’ve always said if I️ had to pick an organized religion to practice I’d love to practice Judaism, it fits my beliefs. If I️ married a Jewish man, Irish or not, my children would be raised Jewish. You’re making broad assumptions about an entire country. Not every Irish person is a Christian and being Irish and proud of it is ABSOLUTELY okay, and not rubbing anything in grandma’s face unless she’s making the same baseless assumptions you are. Unless I️ missed something at no point did she say “We’re raising our children to be Christians and I️ want to show off my tattoo as a reminder for grandma.”
@@maggiequinncloud ok she can be pegan doesn't matter, it screams "I am not Jewish". It doesn't matter how they raise their kids, Judaism goes by the mother so they won't be Jewish unless they convert, and converting to Judaism is not an easy process.
I don't think that'll change her stance; since the tattoo's already on the bride, the MIL can't exactly just take it off (though I'm sure she'd love to). I'm sure the MIL thinks it might as well be covered if it can't be removed, especially at such a formal event. Maybe I admittedly relate to the MIL a bit, 'cause I was taught to dislike tattoos when I was little due to my religion at the time...which was ironically Christianity...😑
The religious reason for hiding a tattoo is legitimate, but mostly among the Orthodox, where an observant man would not be marrying a non-Jewish woman, anyway. The future mother-in-law is concerned about not highlighting the fact that the bride is not Jewish, which a tattoo staring back at the guests during the wedding would do. Also, a traditional Jewish bride would not be in a sleeveless, neckless dress, either, so the whole argument of what's appropriate for this bride goes off the rails, regardless of the tattoo.
THANK YOU. I’ve seen a lot of comments being like, “I’m Jewish, and I have tattoos”. Makes me wanna ask “Okay- a Jew that’s practicing Jewish law or just of Jewish descent?”
@@ragenandis2518 I know most people consider a tattoo "body art" and discount the idea of it being prohibited by Jewish law as an outdated idea, but its origins stem from pagan worship and cult affiliations. Aesthetically speaking even, if Jewish law makes no impression on someone who wants a tattoo, I will say that no ink injection is more beautiful than a human being's natural skin.
That's what I was thinking! There are a lot of reasons I was thinking she kept pointing out the tattoo but then I thought well how is her son marrying a non-Jew? Idk it seems like she just didn't like her to much but probably because she wasn't Jewish (I'm just assuming and sharing my opinion)
Dear everyone, DO NOT TAKE OUT A LOAN TO PAY FOR A WEDDING DRESS. But what you can afford. Don’t start your marriage in a debt with no asset.
Thank you!! I literally had to rewind like "You took out a WHAT???"
Me either. I completely saved up and paid for my dress. I don't have a high paying job either, but I shoveled what I could away. I got a beautiful dress for just over 1000 and still had money left over for alterations. I couldn't imagine taking out a loan for just a dress. Take out a loan for something worth while, like a car or a home.
Absolutely agree. I've seen brides take out huge loans to pay for a 'fairytale' wedding. If they only knew who much it's not worth it. It's a major mistake and having those repayments draining your new marriage, on top of every other new cost, will often taint the memory of the day. Be smart, save up or budget down.
I don't need to get married if I need to spend that much but here we can just register in registration office and it's done😂
Perhaps the groom considers his bride to be’s happiness an asset 😏
It made me laugh so hard when the mother in law goes “this one will cover the tattoo” and the consultant started laughing
🤣🤣😂😂😂 I laughed along with her
That was a wonderful moment ❤
Flo is the best💀😂😂
Best part so far, I paused it to see if anyone else enjoyed it as much as I did 😂
I know I bust out laughing also!
"Respect my culture, but I refuse to respect yours" 🙄🙄
Ikr what is up with that?!
The mother in law should respect hers too!
Exactly and it’s not about anybody BUT the bride! Why do people forget this MOST important detail!!
When does she say this
Exactly!!!! It’s not the Mother in laws wedding! She needs to get over it!!!
That poor girl is going to have a really long and tiring marriage with that woman as her mother in law. I feel sorry for her.
@Andrea Puri her son needs to put his mother in her place and I'm shore the couple was getting it on and in the Jewish community do that happen
Let's not jinx them and hope that ma-in-law is more understanding n supportive of the new member of the family.
I felt that too, been there done that myself. It's tiresome
Yep. Boundaries needed to happen upfront. A marriage isn't about the middle ground with the in-laws.
I would really like to point out that Say Yes isn't always candid. They play up the drama for show.
I hate that the mom in law just says he “tattoo is covered” like why can’t she say “you look beautiful” or something
I think that’s what got them on the show when they applied, so she’s really playing it up.
The marrage will suffer from this mother in law🤮.So so what she has a tattoo,its her body Not yours crazy women.Your son knew ist and still wants her😡
Exactly. Her main focus during the entire appointment was that tattoo, and not at all about the bride or the dresses.
Mother in laws are STUBBORN to their daughter in laws. Always have that “no ones good enough for my baby boy” attitude
If the tattoo was that big of a deal theres makeup that will cover it up so she could wear whatever dress she wants.
I love the bride's mother sticking up for her daughter. And respecting her chose
We see enough mothers on this show that impose their will on their daughters
*choice not chose
Mzzie Productions maybe she wanted to save them from making this mistake again ??
Kk dragon • “I love that the bride’s mother stuck up for her daughter and respected her choice(s).”
I agree completely. The tattoo was not done well, but the point is, to the bride, it represents her family’s lineage & culture. It is just as important as the Jewish things that the groom’s family is trying to push on her!
@@starry_yoongs4999 You are way too stupid to be here. I wrote 3 words in my previous comment, I offered no criticism, yet you're telling me to give them a break. So I shouldn't correct them?

Lori is a real Gem. When she said "Look how you blended your family with this. The strap is for your new family, the strapless is for your family and the veil is for all of us because we Love it." Everyone was in tears. You can say what you want but, culture is important 2022 or not. I think this young lady made a very wise decision for Both Families. Blessings to this new bride and Both her families......xoxoxoxo
Unfortunately I'm going to have to disagree. She is not a Jewish girl and should not be expected to be held up to that religion's standards and culture. You can respect religion and opinion without conforming to it. My fiancè's family is very active Mormon. I'm not wearing their modest dresses and standards of clothing when we get married despite the beliefs and feelings of the family. We are our own unit and we make decisions based on us. It doesn't sound like her fiancé asked her to cover. Laying down these boundaries with parents are essential, especially if they are preparing to raise children together with either family being involved in that process.
Props to MOM who stood by the bride's side and said she wanted to make sure she was not pressured to do what she doesn't wanna do.
I thought her mother came off as very mean-spirited. The bride to be understood and was willing to cover her tattoo for the wedding. No one asked her to get rid of her tattoo, just to cover it for the wedding. If she couldn't do that compromise, that marriage is going to be an unhappy one. This bride was smart. She received points from her new family. Regardless of what you think, it's both families, not just the bride's. Something as simple as temporarily covering a tattoo is not the end of the world.
SHE CALLED HER IRISH HERITAGE TATTOO A PICKLE. A PICKLE. I'm done with "family"
Yea that literally crossed the line.
Irish heritage my arse! Those are four leaf clovers 🍀 not shamrock ☘️. There is nothing Irish about a four leaf clover! It’s as close to a pickle as a shamrock. If your going to get all indignant about “your” culture you’ve got to do your research.
She was very disrespectful, having been persecuted for hundreds of years you'd think Jewish woman would be more tolerant 😪🙁😥
@@neadmc29 I would probably put that down to the quality of the tattoo more than anything... It's not the best one I've seen

I’m so tired of hearing that they need to find the “middle ground”. Let this beautiful woman wear what she wants on her day.
Yes, but she won’t have a good day if all the bride hears is how bad the dress is, getting flack on her wedding dress all day. And whether it’s enjoyable or not, it’s a family dynamic she needs to manage and it’s the consultant’s jobs to make sure she’s happy by making sure they manage her family as well. They achieve letting the woman wear what she wants, and have a good day, by making sure they manage her family’s responses.
@@BarelyNoticeable Of course, which is why the family needs to learn that not everything is about them. If all they are talking about at the wedding is "how bad the dress is", they don't need to come. At the end of the day, loudly complaining about someone else's choices for an event that isn't about you is tacky and disrespectful.
I swear, on the bride day, no middle ground should be found. It’s what the bride wants, period.
seriously! gosh why do people get to dictate their religion to EVERYONE else! Not your wedding, not your day. Zip it.
"She" doesn't exist.

Corona might have that covered.
@Kiraleisha 167 "other mother-in-law." Please explain? How does that happen?
Fr... Usually what happens on the show is a not-your-wedding problem. But in this case it's a not-your-child problem as well. So what she's religious, the bride isn't and she shouldn't be told what to do as an adult. That tat is so small anyways.
It's not like she's showing she has thong underwear or none!!!!
Be thankful she's only got one tattoo!!!
Kiraleisha 167 That is a great story & was very intelligent of you to express your values at the beginning. Had you put up with it for awhile & then opposed her, she might have caused a big disruption that could have divided family members! Parenting is similar - you have to start with manners, rules, morals, & values, as soon as it is possible for the child to understand. Parents that are lax for years until there is a major problem in high school, have already lost the battle. It sounds as if you are or are going to be a wonderful mother (if that is what you want).
I’ll never understand why these brides feel they have to bring so many people to find a gown!! That’s crazy!!
I love Carla. She isn’t going to let anyone walk on her daughter. What’s up with these MIL thinking it’s their wedding?
@Smileyrie.yeppoon Someone as ill mannered and rude as future MIL doesn't deserve tact. You get what you give, and she is old enough to know that.
Some mommies don't think anyone is good enough for THEIR boy. It's creepy, and gross.
My ex MIL called the preacher and asked what she could provide in the way of food because she didn't think that my mother wouldn't provide enough! Smart preacher, he said to ask my mom. She was Italian and expected sit down meals at weddings. We didn't have that kind of money nor did I want that kind of reception. What she should have been more worried about is making sure her only boy was man enough to be married! He wasn't and 40+ years later still isn't. When it was time to cut the cake, he didn't want to because he 'didn't like cake'. His mom had to come convince him to get up and go do the cake cutting ceremony. It went downhill from there. I wish I knew what kind of MIL to be careful of at that time. I would have never married him.

@@duckyluvsyou335 When I got married, I valued my family's opinion. They might see something I don't, or if I'm between two, knowing which one they think is nicer would help. Because even though the most important is to find a dress that you find beautiful, most brides also care that others find them beautiful as well. (Contrary to what this show portrays, I never had that "this is the one" moment, I made sure to try a ton of dresses and there were many contenders that I was completely in love with).
I only brought my mom and my sister though. While I love my friends, their opinion on my wedding dress was not very important to me.

I’m An Orthodox Jew and this lady’s issue with the Tattoo is utterly ridiculous . The bride is not Jewish therefore Jewish laws do not apply to her at all.
Did the MIL SAY halachah applied to her? No, but the implication is that Jewish guests at the wedding will see the tattoo if the bride chooses a revealing dress and that MIL doesn't want any remarks or controversy at the wedding over it because (this is my inference because nothing actually got spelled out past this remark of hers once they edited the show) it could reflect badly on her son and her family, in general.
I'm getting big Messianic vibes from her.

I definitely agree that the mother in-law was being ridiculous with the tattoo, but the fact the bride said, "I'm not picking a dress based upon whether I have a tattoo or not," means so much more. ❤️ Yes, it's covered, but the tattoo isn't important, it's the love between the bride and the groom. And yeah, that sounds cheesy, so what? It's beautiful.
I hope the groom is prepared to stand up for his future wife when his mom oversteps her boundary because you know its going to happen. If he doesn't this couple will not last.

Agree. The marriage looks doomed already 😔
Wedding preparations can be a difficult time since its the brining together of 2 families. In this case, religious rules and tradition, can determine what the future will be like. Especially when children come into play. Its true its the brides day, but it's their marriage. The middle ground is a good place to start.
Hopefully the mother in law does not get into their marriage too much or else there will be problems.

tabs157 you could also consider eloping! I was going to go the courthouse route until I decided I wanted gorgeous pictures. The dress, “venue” (Joshua Tree National Park), officiant, HMUA, and photographer was all less than $4k. Just make sure to do it how you want it with no added stress from other people or finances 😊
BANGBUTTON that money could go towards a house!
tabs157 yes! Like what happened to simplicity?!
The way the mother keeps looking at the mother in law whenever she mentions the tattoo is very funny to me. It's like she is trying her best not to pop off on the mother in law 😂
Honey, the Mother in Law is twice her size, she could turn her into a grease spot on the floor.
Those are edits. The camera team films them and the editing team outs clips together that make for drama. I thought you would know this in 2023.
I don't like the why they lie and say that they where christian. He shouldn't marry her because he has christian values and she's a sinner
Thanks for posting who this is. I looked her up in Facebook and I could not stop looking. What an absolutely beautiful family. I’m envious ❤️
That's not her daughter, that's definitely not her body and she's not wearing the dress🤷🏾♀️ Get over it! 🙄
I swear everyone forgot that makeup exists and could have covered it that way-
My thoughts exactly
I was thinking the same thing!!! You can even get heavy duty camouflage makeup for burns, scars and tattoos.
yes, you are right
Right!!!!
True but she shouldn't be forced to do it
"I dont want to start my marriage off on the wrong foot" Honey you have to start things with firm boundaries for both sets of parents!!!
I can say this from experience. If you have a problem with ANYTHING the bride wants DON’T SAY ANYTHING. It’s not YOUR wedding. My mother and family nearly ruined my entire bridal experience from the day I tried on dresses (mother said I looked like a stuffed sausage in casing) to my wedding day when they all thought it was their day instead of mine. Literally didn’t feel like it was my day until I got in the limo with my husband after the ceremony.
Well, you probably DID look like a stuffed sausage in a casing. Do you want a MOTHER who loves you, and cares about how you look? Or polite "yes man" that will tell you what you want to hear.
He fell in love with her tattoo, he married her with her tattoo, they got babies with the tattoo.....to hell what his mother thinks. For one, it's the two of them getting married, not his mother. I love how her mother said it boldly that she wants to make sure her daughter gets what she wants
AND PLEASE TELL ME WHICH RELIGION they are raising the children in? The BRIDE also KNEW he and his family were JEWISH and SHE SHOULD HAVE found out about that religion, even attended services with him. I think she knew---WHEN you are getting married there are TWO people, A BRIDE AND A GROOM they both have families. BOTH families should be respected if they want it to work. She found the perfect dress, it respects her Groom's family and THE GROOM and started the marriage out on good terms. MARRIAGE IS ALL ABOUT COMPROMISE and if you don't know that then you ae looking at a high chance of divorce. SHE LOOKED GREAT IN THE DRESS AND TWICE AS GOOD TO THE GROOM BECAUSE SHE RESPECTED HIS MOM.
@@bethdavis7812 please finally someone who gets it, they showed the mother too extreme but i get why she did that cause my family has done stuff like that too
@@bethdavis7812 You have no idea what the groom thinks. For all we know, he doesn't a give a fuck and it's only his mum who's so obsessed with what other people do with their own bodies. (There's also no need to abuse all-caps like that.)
@@Ahshshhaha yes it was too done up for television to make the groom's mom look bad when the bride's mom was horrible for not respecting the groom's family. This bride was great at wanting to respect for his jewish side.
(and I know I have seen a lower cut dress with straps...that is what I was expecting...and the make-up idea has been good too.)
Where is the mother-in-law's respect for a tattoo that represents the bride's heritage?
"he took out a loan so I could finish paying off my dress"
Nothing like starting a life together in debt.
I was thinking this good to see someone else thought the same 🤦🏽♀️

Looking for this comment before I made it myself. And she said it like it’s the most romantic thing ever 😂
‘We don’t have tattoos in our religion.’
Great. She’s not part of your religion. I’m sure your son will follow the rules.
In certain religions, a marriage is a religious ceremony. Sometimes, there are certain dress code requirements that one must meet. If a person can't do that, then that person should not marry someone of that religion.
@@KatieBellino Or just accept that the partner is not the same religion why would you let a religion get in the way of who you love, you love them, have so much in common, are loyal to each other, but no you don't follow my religion so we can't marry
@@luiboots8243 Probably because religion is a huge part of someone's life.
@@amihayashi8651 That's tough
@@luiboots8243 If you are devout in a religion, your statement doesn't work. It just doesn't. "Have so much in common"? No, a religious difference is one of the big deal breakers depending on how different your religions are. Religion, politics, and finances are some of the biggest causes of divorce.
The Jewish MIL was incredibly rude. As a mom to two sons I felt honored and elated to be included in the wedding dress shopping trips. I loved both bride-to-be’s choices but even if I wouldn’t have, I would have never disrespected THEIR choice of a dress.
The second couple taking out a loan for a wedding dress? 😮 I hope they have learned the value of a budget since then 😉
I'm Jewish and would personally never get a tattoo but this woman is just being obnoxious!
I am also Jewish but I really want a tattoo!
I’m not Jewish but I agree. The mother in law was being obnoxious! The bride isn’t Jewish so why does she want the tattoo covered??!
@@jayapradamaddela8489 same
I’m catholic and I don’t ever want a tattoo but if others want them great, it makes them happy and I will say they do look really cool and it’s even cooler that a lot of them have special meanings.
@@axanthiccrestie2460 same tattoos are cool
Have they heard of full coverage foundation? Like honey the dress doesn’t matter. You can cover that tat up so easily 😒
But why should she? Her tat, her body, her wedding.
They could end up getting it on the dress
@@k.h.production22669 seems physically impossible to transfer makeup from your shoulder onto a strapless dress
The point is she shouldn’t have too ... and shouldn’t be made to feel she has too
Yeah really. You can cover up tattoos, if you want, but you can't cover up obnoxious.
When mother-in-law said: “Pickle” and smiled, I felt so sorry for the bride
It honestly strikes me that MIL's issue isn't bride having a tattoo but bride herself....
i know i keep thinking about how she's going to treat her grandkids if they don't follow the Jewish faith to the letter and how many time those kids are probably going to end up being put down by her their whole lives and God if they ever get tattoos it's going to being raining h*llfire
I agree. The mil has trouble with the bride
Lori is truly a magical woman, she always knows how to not only get families to agree but also make the bride feel beautiful & like her wants are more than valid (which a lot of families don’t do).
Ok but can we talk about the bride who went in for alterations?? Taking a LOAN for a WEDDING DRESS??? The hell??
exactly! No way am I taking a loan out for any aspect of the wedding if I ever get married. I will save and spend the money that I have! I had a cousin who basically had a $15,000 budget... until the credit card got involved and it was over $30,000 by the end. That didn't include the private island for a week in Fiji for the honeymoon or the week after for staying in New Zealand (we're Australian). It took them years to pay it off and now they are separated. No way no how should anyone go down that round!
THANK YOU!!! I thought I was the only one who thought this was ridiculous
I came searching for this comment! I couldn’t imagine getting a loan for a dress 🤯 I also can’t imagine spending thousands on a dress or wedding either which is why I eloped. I had a gorgeous dress, “venue” (Joshua Tree National Park), and a photographer all less than $4k
I knowwww. That is just crazy to me. How much did it cost, that she needed to take a loan out?
If you are gonna take a loan at least make it an investment! University, a car, a house, or something. But not a dress.
“We don’t desecrated our bodies” ear piercings, chemically treated hair, like come on dude
not true in centuries
so your a hair stylist... how you know her hair is chemically treated?
@@jhoust9675 it straight.so either way it's been altered. Most likely it's permed,also she doesn't naturally have streaks in her hair I'm pretty sure.
@@leannegibbs1064 it's possible that her hair could be straight due to a hot comb that's not chemically altered and chemically altered is not the same as desecrating when talking about hair
@@jhoust9675 well still,straightening it is changing it from its natural state. And we don't know for sure if it's perm or not
Can we all agree that this disagreement will not end on the dress?? If the mother-in-law was already so strict in terms of this tattoo and everything, what more when it comes to her grand children? a lot of disagreement will come in terms of how these children will be disciplined and I do believe that the husband and the kids will be at the middle of this two colliding stones..😑
I imagine if she was this controlling over covering a tattoo it will only get worse when they get married. If the bride doesn't put her foot down and have a husband who supports her its going to get ugly :(
Mj Machie....fully agree with you, the couple will have to set up very firm rules and establish from the start what values are important for their new family and both need to stand up for them....but I fear potential disagreement ahead of them especially when it is about the children/holidays etc. What I really do not understand is that the mother in law argues that her rejection of a tattoo said is based on her religion. She said (as far as I understood) that a tattoo is not allowed in the jewish religion as it “disintegrates” the body. Yet the same religion promotes or even requires male circumcision at a young age in order to enter a religious life. Circumcision is a non-revocable, life-long change to a human body and usually carried out well below the legal age of consent. A tattoo is revocable and only skin-deep thus superficial design and legally only allowed as off age of consent which the bride respected as she was 18 yrs old when she got hers. Ambiguity in standards ? I wish the couple all the best and that they enjoy their Hollywood themed wedding.
@@charlie1567 not that I pretend to fully understand this, but the circumcision is meant as a sign/part of the covenant with God. A sign that this "God thing" goes deep and affects every aspect of your life, even the children you will have. The tatoos however are a heathen practice, the very opposite you might say, and one of the things commanded not to do because those outside the covenant practice it as part of their religion. To my best knowledge, that is. Haven't read/thought about this in ages...
@@thekingsdaughter4233 The Bible did discourage tattoos and other markings, including piercings, because of the often pagan reasons and symbols associated with the practices. If we're not doing it for idol worship, we should be good. Also, I hope the groom's mother takes heed of Genesis, where the couple is no longer bound by parental authority, putting the marriage as top priority.
@@charlie1567 I believe the word you were searching for is "desecrates", not "disintegrates". No shade intended. 😊🙂
I love Lori's way of thinking, her comment at the end was so sweet and a beautiful way to look at it. I love that eyelash lace on the top.
Am I the only one that didn’t like the single strap dress? The way it’s constructed makes the dress look incomplete, like they forgot the other strap.
Agree with both of you, looks like the second strap broke of or something like that😂
Maybe it will look better when it's fitted to her; the strap was big on her.
@@motherofthreeb6337 I hope with the properly sized strap, the tattoo peaks out a little 😉😂
@@No-ue5pi That's what I kept thinking, just cover it up with makeup.
They tucked the corner of the other side in so it looks more finished
That tattoo is only the first thing she'll have to compromise on with MIL! She should have stood her ground, because now MIL thinks she's won and she will find another issue and another.
Exactly
Exactly.
She's happy with the dress that's all that matters
Wait untill they have children and her family wants a baptism/christening or it comes time for them to choose religion. She is going to have problems with how they raise them as far as religion and values.
100% agreed.
First of all the mother in law shouldn't interfere like that. Second of all, there is a special make up which covers up tatoos. Film stars use it all the time. So, she could have chosen a dress to her liking and cover up the tatoo for the wedding.
SHE SHOULDN'T HAVE TO COVER THE TATTOO! Husband's mom just needs to suck it up and leave her alone.
@@tinydancer7426 yes, I did say that first of all the mother in law shouldn't interfere. However, seen that the bride wants to please her and hide the tattoo, they could just use makeup instead of changing her dress style.
My wedding, my choice for my dress...don't need opnions from family or friends‼️
This is an indication of the future of their entire marriage. Her compromising to appease that mother in law. That mother in law is going to be hell to deal with if they have children.
Cut away scene: Lori with scissors snipping the other sleeve off.
Wait I didn't catch that, did it really happen?
She could have chosen any dress she wanted and just used some camouflage makeup on the tattoo. All that carrying on was totally unnecessary. Enjoy your new mother inlaw sweetie. Bless her heart.
i mean, as someone raised jewish, i do get it from MIL perspective, but uhhhh, yea, MIL is being a tad overbearing, its not like shes converted or its in a temple anyways >.> plus piercings arent allowed either soooo
I know!! I was like "has no one ever heard of makeup?"
I know! I was about to say
TBH, I would have gone for the beautiful strapless. Daughter in law is an adult and the fact she has a tat is actually none of MIL's business. Besides, MIL is sitting there with big ole dangly earrings in her *pierced ears!!!* so she has no business trying to force Leviticus onto her DIL when she, herself, is in violation of her supposed religious rules! Hypocrite!
@@danizucker2350 And MIL is sitting there showing earrings in her *pierced* ears, so she has no room to talk about "following the rules." She just doesn't like tats and probably that's because she really doesn't want her son to marry an Irish not Jewish girl.
So proud of Lori. Wow. What a GEM ❤ She doesn't just care about the sale. She actually cares about the well-being of the bride and the groom n their families. Specially on these episode. So proud
I feel like this has to be staged lol. I'm Jewish and I don't know anyone who would make a huge deal about the tattoo but not the overall "immodesty" of the dress.
@Fìfì Fẹ́mi Agree? So random - also, Judaism is not an evangelical religion - in fact, it discourages conversion - at no point does it require (or even encourage?) asking people who aren't Jewish to practice Judaism.
It's a pretty effective way to throw a fit about a marriage you don't support without anyone calling you out on it.
I agree....she cried at the end.
@@katymorgan1691 she cried because her son is marrying this shiksa.. mom is a racist bigot!
Religion is easier to be discriminatory against. If ur not that religion who are u to argue.
“Bride Stacy is stuck between a shamrock and a hard place” i literally died😂
“I want the tattoo to be covered.” She probably also wants to go on the honeymoon and move in with them I bet too. Since she’s talking about things that are not about her that she wants control of.
As a bridal consultant, I would have snuffed this fight out in the waiting room by saying, “if covering the tattoo is a requirement, they make make up for that specific purpose. Now let’s move on.”
Step 1: do not marry a guy who has a mother like this 🤷🏻♀️ it’s not worth it
She just needs to learn how to find her voice

@@luizas2345 I've never had an experience like this, so thank you for acknowledging me. Thank you.
The important thing is for him to respect his wife. If he does, she won't mind about his mother. But if he takes his mother's side against his wife, that'll be the end.
Brooke Berghuis Agreed!
I can't believe he took out a loan to pay the rest of the country lady's dress off. A freaking LOAN for a dress...
Going into a marriage with absolutly no savings... that would freak me out big time.
Even with that being the case, why would she air that on national TV?
Maybe she should have picked a dress within her budget to begin with.
My mother in law can tell me whatever she wants, don’t mean i’m gona listen though💅🏾 we’ll see who has the last word on the wedding day
Raie The Fanti Bae One of my sister-in-laws wasn’t invited. My MIL tried to get her way. Her disrespectful ass daughter wasn’t coming and that was it. If my husband would’ve allowed the manipulation there wouldn’t have been a wedding.
Ele Moss i know thats right👏🏾. Theres no way in hell i’m about to invite any disrespectful relatives to my wedding, whether they’re from my side or his side its just not happening.
Agree when it’s your wedding you make the last decision everyone can have an opinion and if it ain’t nice than keep it to yourself. My mother loves my tattoos and if my mother in law doesn’t like them that’s on her my body my canvas 😁.
I feel the same way!!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Wow the Mother in law is overstepping. The son obviously knew she had that dang tattoo when he asked her.
STACY'S Mom is the MVP for having her daughter's back.
The groom mother was so disgusting 😝 and even at the end, she didn't even compliment her or the dress just kept it about the tattoo. Shame on you.
So...she's making a fuss about a tiny tattoo, but not about a non-traditional Jewish wedding? smh
Ssshh. Don't remind her. :0)
She probably did ngl, covering the tattoo was the least the bride could do.
@tamar avrahami for sheer curiosity, does one get to pick and choose what mitzvahs to take on, and which to not consider? From watching a few different Jewish RUclipsrs I was wondering...
@@thekingsdaughter4233
Well, formally you can't choose ,
But in reality some Jewish people have tattoos and don't eat bakon..

Maybe the problem wasn't about religious?
I wanted to have a tattoo long ago and my mother said that I can never do it because it would remind her of the Holocaust...
And my family is kinda religious 💁
I really couldn't, COULDN'T care less about your culture. Whatever your religion is, if i'm the one getting married, you don't have a single SAY. You're JUST a mother in law, stay in your lane, my relationship with your son is your somewhat your business, but my dress ain't.

Love the mother..the mother-in-law shows no respect for the bride 's pride in her own heritage. Shame on that selfish mother-in-law!😠😠😠
Why does it matter if the tattoo is exposed? She has the tattoo. It’s done.
I guess since she’s marrying into a family who are Jewish that don’t do tattoos, it’s probably going against what they do so it’s annoying?.. I have no idea honestly.
@@shunohh Choosing a dress that exposes the tattoo makes it clear to traditional Jewish guests and family that the groom chose a non-Jewish bride. This means their children will not be Jewish because a person's mother has to be Jewish to be born Jewish. Why does this matter at all? Because the future mother-in-law knows her ancient Jewish family line will end with, "I do." The branch is broken.
Jewish or not....I think an elegant dress is diminished by any tattoo showing. But that is my atheistic view.
@@user-jy3zl2vp4b your atheistic view is also my aesthetic view! lol. And you know that if dressmakers thought a tattoo would enhance their dresses, the mannequins they use in the stores would have tattoos on them, as well!
I was thinking oh the poor girl white and a non jew double whammy for mother in law. Lol
I love how she complained about the tattoo and yet had her ears pierced. She literally punctured her skin, "desecrating" her body not just once, but twice.
“We don’t desecrate our bodies” - but circumcision ...
Circumcision is not desecration.
@Z Q Piercings are considered non-permanent because if you take the earring or nose rings or what have you out, the flesh will eventually close up, so they are okay under Jewish law. A tattoo is permanent and therefore is considered on the same level as cutting yourself to create scars, or artificial implants, or chopping off a finger (which was done in some cultures as a sign of mourning.) Henna is okay, tattoos not.
@@shayndlgreen3356 How do you figure that?!? It may be an honored tradition....but it is still a desecration.
B nope. Desecrate - to treat (a sacred place or thing) with violent disrespect; violate.
Circumcision is a holy thing in the Jewish tradition so it can’t be defined as a desecration.
circumcision was done not just for religious practice as a holy ritual (opposite of desecration) but also a way to prevent infection in times when people weren’t the most hygienic. i personally as a jewish person don’t see why we need to do it in the modern day and i personally think it’s kinda messed up but there is a good historical basis for it’s benefits at the time and holy nature
The MIL talking about "desecrating your body" when she's got straightened hair and giant ass earrings. Where's the difference?
RIGHT!?!?!
Nothing is wrong with those things, but by her standards it should be!
@@janaekelis right, it's only "desecrating" to the MIL when it serves her. Good luck to the bride marrying into a family like that.
You think those were clip on earrings? Cuz she's awfully high and mighty..
Girl, straight hair and earrings is not desecration 🙄
I think the mama in laws should not go to the dress fittings, that's a moment that should be shared with mother and daughter and bridal party.
it depends on the mother in law. Rude mother in laws should not be invited but there is such a thing as a kind mother in law. My future mother in law is amazing and sweet and i feel so blessed to have her in my life. I would invite her to my fitting in a heart beat.
If you've ever watched this show before, you should know that the mothers tend to be more than a little difficult, and quite frequently the mother in law is supportive of the bride to be.
Good job Lori,you are one of the best best manager😂😂 you can connect two families by the perfect decision 👌 👍 👏
This HAS to be staged.
Considering the MIL has no problem with the wedding being held at a theater and not a temple, a tattoo SHOULD NOT bother her this much.
The only mention the Torah makes of a tattoo is Leviticus 19:28 “You shall not make gashes in your flesh for the dead nor incise any marks on yourself: I am the Lord.”
Rabbi’s have very conflicting views on what this passage means, whether it means to not tattoo one’s self at ALL, or to refrain only from tattoos that refer to God, considering ear piercing is not controversial at all.
This is why MOST Jewish cemeteries do allow people with tattoos to be buried there, it’s a common myth that none do, you’re more likely to find one that does than one that doesn’t.
Jewish weddings are not done in a temple
@@bek2100 Weddings are OFTEN held on the synagogue grounds. Depending on the families, some choose to uphold the ancient tradition of having it at the groom’s house where it used to be stated “the groom’s father built special quarters for the married couple.”
However many Jewish people, both reform and orthodox, choose to have the wedding ceremony itself on synagogue grounds (generally in a courtyard) because the chuppah is already set up under an open sky to be in direct contact with the stars.
The entire wedding they’re explaining is unequivocally not a Jewish ceremony. From the bride and groom having the same reception, to getting married indoors.
For a mother that claims to be this strictly Jewish, there are a LOT of other things about this wedding she would take issue with that aren’t just the tattoo.
@@maggiequinncloud who said the chupah is not outside? Besides I bet that tattoo of the Irish things screams Christianity just as much as wearing a cross. Anyway it's painful enough for her that her grandchildren won't be Jewish, no need to rub it in her face...
@@bek2100 Even if the chuppah is outside, the reception itself (them having it together) is very unorthodox.
I’m Irish and while I don’t have any tattoos screaming it, I’m certainly not a Christian. I’m pagan, my lifelong best friend is Jewish, and I’ve always said if I️ had to pick an organized religion to practice I’d love to practice Judaism, it fits my beliefs. If I️ married a Jewish man, Irish or not, my children would be raised Jewish.
You’re making broad assumptions about an entire country. Not every Irish person is a Christian and being Irish and proud of it is ABSOLUTELY okay, and not rubbing anything in grandma’s face unless she’s making the same baseless assumptions you are.
Unless I️ missed something at no point did she say “We’re raising our children to be Christians and I️ want to show off my tattoo as a reminder for grandma.”
@@maggiequinncloud ok she can be pegan doesn't matter, it screams "I am not Jewish". It doesn't matter how they raise their kids, Judaism goes by the mother so they won't be Jewish unless they convert, and converting to Judaism is not an easy process.
That poor bride, she is not jewish and its her body. That mother in law is nit picking and its rude. Let the bride show off who she is
It’s HER wedding she gets to chose the dress SHE wants.
I can’t fathom bringing so many people in to give their opinions.
The future looks scary with such a mother-in law...
Whether she hides the tattoo or not, it’s still there. So, the mother in law’s objection is pointless !!!
I don't think that'll change her stance; since the tattoo's already on the bride, the MIL can't exactly just take it off (though I'm sure she'd love to). I'm sure the MIL thinks it might as well be covered if it can't be removed, especially at such a formal event.
Maybe I admittedly relate to the MIL a bit, 'cause I was taught to dislike tattoos when I was little due to my religion at the time...which was ironically Christianity...😑
The religious reason for hiding a tattoo is legitimate, but mostly among the Orthodox, where an observant man would not be marrying a non-Jewish woman, anyway. The future mother-in-law is concerned about not highlighting the fact that the bride is not Jewish, which a tattoo staring back at the guests during the wedding would do. Also, a traditional Jewish bride would not be in a sleeveless, neckless dress, either, so the whole argument of what's appropriate for this bride goes off the rails, regardless of the tattoo.
THANK YOU. I’ve seen a lot of comments being like, “I’m Jewish, and I have tattoos”. Makes me wanna ask “Okay- a Jew that’s practicing Jewish law or just of Jewish descent?”
@@ragenandis2518 I know most people consider a tattoo "body art" and discount the idea of it being prohibited by Jewish law as an outdated idea, but its origins stem from pagan worship and cult affiliations. Aesthetically speaking even, if Jewish law makes no impression on someone who wants a tattoo, I will say that no ink injection is more beautiful than a human being's natural
skin.
Also the Holocaust where our people were forced to wear tattoos.
That's what I was thinking! There are a lot of reasons I was thinking she kept pointing out the tattoo but then I thought well how is her son marrying a non-Jew? Idk it seems like she just didn't like her to much but probably because she wasn't Jewish (I'm just assuming and sharing my opinion)
The bride looks SO beautiful , lovely, pretty and everything I love it she looks stunning .
