Bride And Mum Have COMPLETELY DIFFERENT IDEAS On What She Should Wear | Say Yes To The Dress: India 

@ndh That's so sweet of you🤍

The designer is Natasha Dalal

Thank you for explaining. It helps to gain some knowledge into their culture. I love the dresses.

Thank you!!!

Thank you. Would love captions for all these. I appreciate the explanation.

The word Parsis means Persians. They descended from Persian Zoroastrians who emigrated to India in the 7th century AD to avoid religious persecution by Muslims. They live chiefly in Mumbai and in a few towns and villages mostly to the north of Mumbai, but also at Karachi (Pakistan) and Bengaluru (Karnataka, India). A Parsi bride’s wedding attire includes a white silk or chiffon saree known as Parsi Gara. She covers her head with the pallu during the ceremonies and the jewellery that she wears are usually the family heirlooms. One of the oldest stories of Sugar and Milk in Parsis (Parsi / Parsee Zoroastrians) folklore, comes from the time when they came over from Persia (modern day land of Iraq and Iran and other countries) to save themselves and their religious faith. They landed in Sanjan a port in the Indian State of Gujarat. The King Jadhav Rana (aka Jadi Rana), who was the ruler of the land and a good one. The language of Indians and Persians was different, so to welcome the strangers and communicate that the land was already filled with people to the brim, he sent them a full glass of milk. The Zoroastrian priests immediately got the message and since they were peace loving religious people, they wanted to send back a message that they would make the land and community richer and more prosperous by their good values, knowledge and hard work. The Parsis added sugar to the glass of milk. The King Jadhav Rana was so impressed with this gesture that he granted them asylum and welcomed them with gifts and helped them settle in the new land of India. Parsis thus settled and assimilated, blended in India like sugar in the milk.

@@kanchanchoudhary1266 i wanted say all these but i wanted to make my comment short and simple to understand quickly. But thanks you provided a little deeper info 😊

Lmaoo

Right? I looked again and wondered if she was seeing the same dress. 😂

Not according to Indian standards.

normally sure it sparkles but when it comes to an indian wedding, it was nowhere close to bridal sparkle

So true ! Me in my mind : this mom must be blind .

If you look at a college graduation in the USA, you will see that parents attending their kids graduation are over 55 yrs of age to late 60s. Indian women get married rather early around 19-20-21 yrs of age and pop a kid the following year . The upper middle class have all the household help due to cheap labor and the wives maintain themselves by visiting beauty salons, gyms and what not. These wives also don't have the stress of working at a job and their nannies and maids do the house work so their lifestyle keeps them young looking as well. Ofcourse, slowly things are changing in India and women are getting married a little later , perhaps mid to late 20s and some early 30s too, but still it is preferred to be "settled" aka married before turning 30.

One some previous episode somebody noted that they don't give the prices such that people don't start a whole competition of having an even more expensive dress.

@@idharudhar5985 Women in US literally have 4 kids by the age of 25.Teenage pregnancies are quite common in Usa. This indian mom is definitely pretty but Parsis are usually very wealthy people who live a luxurious life which could also be the contributing factor to her beauty.

@@SahilPatel-ln8iw Having four kids by the age of 25..that is not the norm. There are some communities like the Latinos and Black that tend to have more children and also there are some that don't go to college due to having kids early and dropping out of school.

@@idharudhar5985 your comment on Indian is literally the polar opposite of the norm in India too

She did wear the dress!

Same here, and I would love to see arabic/muslim..especially north african…since I am a muslim myself but a revert so I don’t know anything about the wedding traditions or anything.

@@vgvlogs4182 they do have some shows that are in Dubai. I just watched 3 shows.

@@vgvlogs4182 I think they have a series in Malaysia that has some Muslim brides. However, the only episode I saw she chose to wear an western style wedding gown.

The outfits in Nazrana diaries also look like they are from 1980's. So outdated.

Yes, like I have seen brides wear grey for reception. Which might be mocked as black is considered non auspicious & grey is diluted black.

@@Kathakathan11 It's exactly like how westerners think of black as a funeral colour but the grooms mostly wear black suits.Stereotypes everywhere. In india,brides wear red, yellow,white,golden,green,blue,magenta,peach,grey,pastel shades which are trending but when I watch nazrana diaries, I see grooms saying my mum will not like it if you don't wear red and Shia asks brides if her in laws will be ok if you wear an off shoulder like they have no opinions of their own. It makes me cringe. Thank god for showing real indian brides.

@@veenakamat7390 yes, but I don’t think black is funeral colour here. Rather that is disrespectful. Yes black for marriage is something I haven’t seen, but grey yes, my own cousin chose it, she looked amazing. We even had a bhabhi who chose floral saree like pastel coloured one for marriage, it wasn’t in trend that time to have pastels. So some aunties were asking why she is wearing so dull saree, she looked pretty as well. It was in 2000s

@@Kathakathan11 There is nothing disrespectful about any colour. Every colour has its beauty and charm.

I am so glad you mentioned what Parsis means in this coment section. As a Persian I never really knew about the Sugar and Milk folklore of Zoroastrians who migrated to India. Thank you so much for sharing this sweet piece of information!

Wowwwww this is so heartwarming 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

ofcourse its staged, it a show. otherwise how it is almost always the 'third dress' that is right

Udraj bcoz every country say yes to dress is edited. The whole session, trial, confirmation is many appointments n sessions which is cut, edited to show only 3 dresses.. the designer can't show everything in his store or audience won't be interested to see same dresses everytime

editing@@udraj914

All of it is staged. Every single reality show is scripted. Every one of them. But with shows like this, it doesn't matter. Actuaaly, it has to be staged and prepared and edited. I hardly think anyone would willingly watch hours of raw footage featuring people searching for their dresses cold turkey. That's not an interesting show.

Thanks for the responses. I should have clarified that I know it’s staged but I would imagine that it shouldn’t feel that way. The flow of this episode isn’t as natural as other shows I have watched.

I agree!!

Absolutely!!!!❤❤❤❤

The second outfit (pink & purple) was a lehenga and not a saree. The pastel colour palette was the bride's choice

And the price

In India, parsi community traditionally wear light coloured attire in their marriages or other functions

@@victoryv116 For the actual wedding ceremony?? Interesting! I thought this might be for the reception.

@@andydufresne5297 yup ..in their main marriage function .

@@andydufresne5297 Parsi community came from Persia now Iran thousands of years ago so they have blended the Persian culture with the Indian (Gujarati) culture. They wear light (mostly white) coloured Indian clothes on their wedding day.

@@pragsri8377 Thank you for the information!

What are you talking about. They were honest in their opinions but never cruel. They criticized the dress not the bride. And if they had not been honest, she might have settled with the pink dress and not have found that last dress

You should see the original series , Carl is also like this only so the series is along those lines only.😊

Why speaking English is appreciable btw? Also, since the show is for TLC which is an English channel, they're speaking English. If this was a show, supposed to be telecasted on an Indian National channel then they all would have spoken in Hindi and if it was on regional channel then of course, regional language. 😁
