Bride Is Forced To Try A Lace Dress After Saying She Hates It | Say Yes To The Dress 

For the large Swarovski Crystal Pnina overcharged for, it’s not enough. For most designers it’s more than enough.

Right? This was an old episode, maybe the Hailey Paige dresses werent out yet

Exactly what I thought. Since when is $7000 a poor budget?😮‍💨

Hahaha so true!!!!

@@mommynab honestly, my dress was 600 and has beading everywhere. Front and back

They deal with clients who spend minimum 50,000 to start. Personally I think wedding gowns are way overpriced.

@@ladyjustice1474 That's an understatement

@@luna-p God bless anyone who can spend that much, but bridal shops have to have at least a dozen other gowns that look like those expensive ones, at a much more affordable price, and still look just as gorgeous and of beautiful quality… To me, the secret weapon is an amazing seamstress… they can do anything you want to a gown if they have enough talent…even though we should be able to find a dress that has everything we want, but sometimes when we do, it might need a teeny bit of tweaking…😉 As an example, my dream dress was EXACTLY what I wanted (I never thought I would love the ton of work that I had, but it looked amazing in person!) the thing I HATED was the shape of the train… I wanted a round one, but the dress had one that was almost round, until the very end, and then it came to a point… it was almost like the shape of a spade… I still can’t describe it after 22 years🤣 There were also a few little fabric roses at the back, by the waist, and a couple at the ends of the sleeves. Very small, but just didn’t look right and in proportion… Those talented ladies not only made the train round (easy enough), but replaced the work to perfection, AND, created larger fabric flowers for the back at the waist , along with similar details to the rest of the work on my dress! God bless the seamstresses!

thats how upscale places are tbh

i cant believe people really buy so expinsive wedding dress

Yessssss!!!!!!

Haha

Or they only look for dresses in the higher prie range closer to your budget max 🤦🏽‍♀️

@@nikkiallen6737 good point. I did not think of this

I work in travel sales and I don't agree to this at all. Telling the budget always helps both sides. A good salesperson never pushes anyone to pay more than they can afford. We only state the facts and let them decide.

...except she fell in love with that dress and liked it more than anything else she tried on. So, maybe they know what they're doing?

Sometimes the pros can tell and just " know" what the bride really wants deep down. They proved that fact. That's their job! If she really didn't like it, she does have the last say.

It’s a TV show, they have to create a storyline and add something dramatic. Otherwise it’ll be boring to watch.

I do agree with you that the bride's wishes should matter most, but it seems like they ask the family so that they can be as efficient as possible. The entourage IS going to give their opinion, it's just a matter of *when* they're going to give it. If the shopkeepers had no idea what the family liked/disliked, the bride will take all the time to put a dress on just to walk out and hear someone cringe or give it a resounding "NO." With some brides, that could change the feeling of the entire appointment. At the very least, asking the entourage saves time. At the most, it saves heartbreak.

Sometimes they think they're going to hate it, then they try it on and decide "maybe I don't hate _______"

She look great in the dress, but the eye makeup is so disturbing.

She did wear the dress.

It’s not too far over budget. The dress was $7700, and her budget was $7000. She could have spent much more than that.

She asked for bling if she wants bling she’s gonna have to go over the budget, if they brought her something in her budget it wouldn’t have bling and it wouldn’t be what she was looking for so she would say no

@@leahowlett5525 i mean a budget is a budget for a reason. We dont know how much she could afford and how much people put in /she saved so she had a nice budget. Almost $1000 more is very over buget. $700 is a lot regardless if you are paying several thousand or several hundred

🤣😂

You know it

Right!

I still wish I could wear my dress again from 22 years ago…. Paid $1100 , but I will LOVE it forever!

Hilarious!!!!! Don't forget the carwash!

They want to sell the most expensive dress that they can. I hated the top, looked like a nightgown, but all Pninas look like that. I know she has fans but I'm not one and I'm far from conservative,

Gok is the best 💛💛💛

Gok's wedding dresses are very pretty, creative, diverse and even unique for some and at a better price. And Gok doesn't go for the more expensive ones and mixes it up.

I think a lot of that has to do with the store. The stores purchase the dresses, and they can only show what's there. Also, this show takes place in Kleinfeld in NYC. Items there are just going to cost more.

Gok has a passion for making females feel beautiful and is respectful of price...

thats common filipino household for you

@@solsophia5238 I disagree with your generalization

@@solsophia5238 yep!

I didn't get that at all.

@@solsophia5238 common Asian in general I think. Coming from a half Asian.

I agree. I loved the dress with the slit. It was truly unique and she pulled it off.

Her mom didn’t like the slit. The dress is eye-catching and she looked good but once you take a good look at it it kind of resembles a nightgown.

Me too! I said wow out loud!

@@ludobagman3882 it’s because it’s silk but the way it hugs her body is gorgeous ❤

Agreed, this dress is not my style, but it "pops" on her like nothing else. It's like it was made for her!

Just another pinoy

#oddlyspecific

Fs!

Or she’s the principal from Matilda ❌No in between❌

That sounds like the woman on yuri on ice lol

That's so specific but so on point. 😂

It was also $700 over budget.

Because today it really isn't.

@@timewilltell5476 yeah but 8 years ago, when this episode was first aired, it was a lot of money

I thought that was weird too. I guess if the bling is like, Swarovski crystals or something I could understand, but I’m sure there are more affordable ways to add sparkle to a dress. That said, I don’t know a lot about wedding gown pricing.

@@timewilltell5476 this episode is from 2014 .. I think it's a decent amount of money to add more bling

@@renownedbandanawearer1345 the uk version lancashire have more beautiful dress and sometimes cheaper than this and have all the blings.. they don't make it super dramatic or difficult ..so......

I could see that too.

Because they bullied her into that final "over her budget" dress...

WHO CARES??? This isn't about MR. Gok Wan, it's Kleinfeld's, it's in the USA, and if you don't like it, don't watch it, or else go to Australia where your idol works!

@@jb6712 Wow! That's some hatred you got. Also racist. But fyi I love syttd. Whether it's US version or any other version. I was just talking about the price point. I bet $7k is a lot of money for most people. Might not be for you. But a lot of people consider it high budget. & You really need therapy or something. Because if me only saying this offended you so much. Then you definitely need help with temper issues.

@@jb6712 Yeah you went too hard for no reason . You giving racist vibes .

@@jb6712 Gok's British you melt.

Calm down bij

Sometimes I think they have them ham it up for the show. Creates more drama, lol.

Then do it yourself, don't bring them with you

Then you probably don't deserve friends.

@@laurastuart3814 why?! thats such a random response 😂

Agreed! There have to be at least a few in the store that you’re looking in that are similar to the expensive one, at a lower price, and it will look just as beautiful and be of wonder quality

She probably can but not in the style she wants !

You can get a beautiful prom dress for 250

She was willing to spend $6500 on the dress she supposedly loved at the other store, yet something held her back. $7700 is a massive budget, but for her, it didn't seem to be an issue. People have their own budgets for things. She wanted the best dress, and she was willing to pay the extra cash for it. I can't blame anyone for that. She loved the dress in the end, whether it was her initial vision or not.

My wedding dress was around $400 with a little added beading that was done by my mother. I can’t remember what the extra beading cost but obviously not $6100-6600 haha

I agree. I don't mind a bit of see-through but when it's the entire bodice it doesn't look so good. My daughter's wedding gown is a Sottero & Midgley and there's a touch of see through at the waist but not the entire bodice so it looks really nice.

@@MLMLW Yeah, anything can work if it's designed right. A lot of times it seems like they come up with a design for a dress and then go, what's popular? and just slap it on as an afterthought.

Glad they did that! It was such a gorgeous dress, but looked unfinished to me ..::

@@luna-p the secret weapon is an amazing seamstress 😉 It’s truly amazing what they can do!

Totally agree!!!!!

And I absolutely love Curvy Brides where women over a size 8 are made to feel beautiful and whole. I do not know why Kleinfelds doesn't carry larger sizes, they are obviously available. It is so humiliating for a larger woman.

Also love the Atlanta version. Their number 1 rule is not to go over the bride's budget and they always emphasize that their brides must go home happy with the experience. 😊

Someone already mentioned the Curvy Brides, and then there's SYTTD Ireland. 👍

I will never forget the episode where a bride's dream dress was way overbudget but Gok convinced the owner to mark it down just for her. If she had gone to any other boutique she would've walked out without a dress.

He also is the only one who points out that a lot of things can be changed. Sometimes going from strapless to a Bardot neckline is all that's needed to make it perfect. And he brings that on. I never heard any of the others say something like that.

Who’s gok?

@IM LIQUID SMOOTH COME TOUCH ME TOO Gok is a person on the other side of this show, truly a wonderful person, works within budget, is good at comforting and consoling the bride, they are a great designer. They do their job with passion instead of just money on their mind.

What is GOK how can I watch it

​@yourfavgirl29 there's a couple of his videos here on RU-vid, just search "Say Yes to the Dress Gok"

I agree, it looked like it was not finished and see through. The one the mom picked was nice.

Hey Sanja

I think she was stereotyping.

Well, she wore the dress. I found the picture on her hubby's fb.

Yeah, the bride didn't look at all happy - her smiles seemed very forced - the poor girl.

@@L.Spencer love the detective work 🤣🤣

@@L.Spencer really you even do that?

Glad I don’t have a sister then and only brothers. My brothers would just tell me to get what I want.

She does resemble Kim. I would even go as far as to say that her sister resembles Kourtney.

Yeah, $7000 for a dress is cray cray. I think I'm going to open a wedding dress store where you rent the outfit, lol. Sort of like prom.

Yeah, I hate it. I wish they showed more variety instead of the same tired and terrible trends over and over.

There's nothing wrong with that whatsoever. No, simplicity is not the way to go. Hell, I am all about the bling and there is no such thing as too much bling. And besides, who are you to say that a bride can't wear a blingy wedding dress?

I agree! I liked #4 so much better. She looked amazing 👏 😍

Exactly

Funny how you just “know” their family dynamic in an hour long show about drama and wedding dresses. I guess these kind of tv shows REALLY edit the cuts to show the REALITY of the families they feature.
