Bride Miss USA Fed Up With Future Mum-In-Law Hating Her Dress Picks | Say Yes To The Dress 

Exactly this... where is the acknowledgement of her budget. They have must have dresses under her budget.

Exactly

And then there is the veil. Ive heard quotes of $3,000 for a veil with lace trim 🤦‍♀️

Ridiculous

The moral of the story is: Whatever your budget actually is, tell them that it is $1000-$1500 less than that.

Did you miss the part where she based it on what dress the bride chose? 🤔

@@SM-ji1qe I have a slight feeling some good old classic “reality show editing” was done to make it seem that way. Either that or she said it, not because of the dress, but because her being in the final dress with the vail on, made the MIL emotional, and she just needed to say that. But if you wanna go with the “MIL only cares about dress” interpretation. Go for it.

yes...iam 666...lol.

@@deargodwhatamidoing1122 yeah, I’ll believe what I see and hear, and I’d appreciate it if you would not make up a quote I allegedly said. Perhaps before all that though, you’d do best to get over yourself. 😂

@@SM-ji1qe I’m sorry if there was a misunderstanding, but I have always learned that these “” are used both for quotes and when naming specific things. I didn’t claim you said it, I just took your point and gave it a name. I will admit my way of doing so was quit childish. I am sorry. What I meant to say was that you could view the MIL any way you want. I just disagree, because again, editing in reality shows isn’t always to be trusted.

Her opinion doesnt count. She's not the one getting married. As long as you have a strong man in your corner, you're good

@S k. she’s marry to someone else now 🤣

@@delmar9972 This must be a really old clip then.

@S k. Wow, really? But yet they spent so much money on this dress and everything else. It feels like the more expensive a wedding is the faster they divorce.

@@Impossibly_gorgeous True to some extent but in some cases, couples divorce due to the mother in law sadly.

true, but she definitely picked the right dress. i don't think the severe mermaid silhouette was for her, the blingy embroidery on a fit & flare was just perfection.

I came to write that but you already did 😊

😂

Agree.

Exactly 🤣🤣🤣🤣

I'm learning that now I've had to compromise every need in my pregnancy & to fight for my every want god I'm tired of this but hey if you've got advise lmk

Italian Moms and their sons...🤷‍♀️

Take a look at Carolyn Hax, advice columnist for the Washington Post. Much of the time she writes about setting and enforcing boundaries.

@@kastynm.9004 DON’T EVER comprise for anyone !!! especially your mother in law! when she had her husband and had her kids she raised them her way and managed her marriage way! my mother in law doesn’t dare to control me! I have put her in her place! now we have a respectable relationship

@@kastynm.9004 put in boundaries and let your husband know these boundaries as well. If his mother over steps them then it’s his job to put her back in her place. If your husband refuses to stand up for you over his mother then rethink your relationship because once your kid is born it will only get worse.

It’s only money

I guess if your top budget is 7 you should tell them it 5 or 6..they almost always push the amout

@@valerieblack6445 What do we know, maybe most of them already do that.-D

Agree

I thought it was the most flattering of all the dresses.

I agree totallu - the second drexx is absolitely gorgeous and purrfect for her. Its a pity she didnt try it on again.

I agree!!

Absolutely. The best cut, classy, tasteful and suited her skin tone.

She is a guest and should mind her business. She is a bully. Her comments are very condescending. Her sense of entitlement is off the charts.

@@richardmayora1289 OK..........

But who cares what she thinks? The bride is a grown woman who should have the last word without any pressure to please anyone but herself. This is so stupid.

@@cindyj5522 She was brought along because her opinion was valued. She was reasonable and kind. If it's "your day" then use "your money" and go by "YOURSELF"........

I think MIL got her 15 minutes of fame.

you're her

she said a dress absolutely covered in rhinestones was "too plain." even the MOB was fed up with her, this obviously wasn't the first time she shat her opinion all over the bridal appointment.

@@dietotaku what's your deal? You're so angry

It's just clickbait for the title. You could see she was hesitant to be honest at first until they coaxed her

@@celeste2751 😆😆😆😆😆😆😆 I like you

You did the right thing.

I would only invite 2 other people to go with me if I shopped for a bridal dress.

I was 29 when I picked out my gown. The only person I brought with me was an extremely close friend.

Bought mine off the rack at age 28, all by myself. I l loved my mother, but I did not like shopping for my clothes with her.

Me too! 20 and chose my dress last month by myself! Best decision ever

I agree. Although I feel that she did not communicate exactly WHAT she didn't like as well as she could have, I think she and the test of the entourage gave good feedback so the bride got the dress that looked best on her and what she wanted.

They heard Randy and the Bride talking.

You missed the point. She doesn't get to have an opinion about the dress. Other things, maybe. Dress? Nope.

Yeah but the bride was clearly a little frustrated. She could have toned it down just a little for her bridal appointment.

@@Impossibly_gorgeous only the whole reason she was invited was so that she would be able to have her opinion. If she wasn’t going to be allowed to have an opinion in the dresses, she wouldn’t have been invited. Strange you missed that important clue.

Rude of Randy!

They did not ignore it, they stayed right in her range. For people who are used to purchasing high priced items, it is understood that "$7000" means up to "$7,999". She is a beauty contestant and would have the experience to expect this, as well as knowing that alterations will likely be hundreds of dollars. Any extras, such as added lace, beading, or accessories such as a veil will not be included in the first quote. They even left enough room in the budget to ensure she would not go over the $8000 mark with alterations. While I agree it is disrespectful to only show dresses above the bride's budget, that was not the case in this episode. If the bride's budget was $1500 and they showed $2000 dresses, it would be rude, because that $500 more is 1/3 of her original budget. However, going a few hundred over on a $7000 budget is just a small fraction of the budget higher. Either way, they should never pressure the customer to try on or purchase what they can't afford. Brides need to be ready to stand their ground on budget and not try on anything shown to them above budget. Better yet, state a budget lower than what they can actually afford, so they can view a range of prices. However, don't fault a salesperson for showing them something over budget if it is exactly what they are asking for. It's not always about their commission. Sometimes what the customer wants is simply not in their price range, and they deserve the chance to turn down their perfect dress or increase their budget so they can have it.

@@wildflower1397 she did say "no higher than $7000" ...

@@wildflower1397 It's super manipulative and wrong to go over someone's budget. The consultants know the dresses and prices; why they always go right at the top of the budget or above is beyond me, instead of choosing similar dresses ~$500 below the bride's max budget. Like so annoying.

Truly

What a huge waste of time and money on that big wedding for two years together 😂

How you know this?

@@karissakline6765 well, they were together for years leading up to the engagement and no one gets married with the intention of getting divorced. Some things just don’t work out.

@@Q1cool8790 they’re both prominent on social media. Look up their names and you’ll see their IG pages with pictures of their current respective spouses. The date of Erin and Tony’s wedding is on Erin’s Wikipedia page.

All that money wasted for nothing. She might as well have worn a paper bag and not had a mil for a critique.

Thank you for letting us know. I always wonder how many couples make it.m

That's really sad.

How do you find this info? How sad but I found the different generations look at marriage differently.

Wow. Thank you for the update.

@@karenacton3854 All you have to do is look up her name (it's displayed around 0:16 in the clip) and "miss universe". Shortcut: Look for her wiki entry. It's in there.

Yeah....ok

@@laceyfox3384 ok Lacey with your chunky turquoise necklace from 2014 and your Shirley temple curls. Let’s take fashion advice from the home school lookin’ grandma. 🙄

@@politesmile7812 wow you really zoomed in to check me out! FYI it's a genuine Royston lariat from the same company that drew Barrymore buys her turquoise from. It's not costume jewelry sweetheart

@@laceyfox3384 all one has to do is click on your face in comments and it opens your profile, where I see your tacky 2014 photo and your HBHG playlist. No zooming needed boomer. BTW I loved Drew Barrymore in the Wedding Singer and I’m sure her stylist at Hippie Cowgirl could help you put a modern spin on that necklace. You could use some updating sweetheart. It’s time to put the velour Juicy bag away.

@@laceyfox3384 To be fair, Polite Smile didn't say your necklace looked fake, they said it was chunky and old school. It being "genuine" doesn't make something more or less tacky to others. Wear what you want and makes you feel good though. I wear corsets and look like a pirate/elf half the time because I like it. Others find it gaudy. That's the fun thing about style, it's subjective.

I wonder if she said that to her sons new wife. They are divorced and both have remarried

Right! Also, I doubt that the $7600 included sales tax and alterations.

Can't imagine spending that much money on a dress

@@merricat3025 Me either!!! I spent $40 on my Dress. Cause i had a Justice of the Peace ceremony. Cause my Hubby has NO FAMILY except his WITCH of a Mom. I have my Mom, friends, and my Aunt and Uncle came to Ceremony. My Uncle gave me away in place of my Dad

Did you ever stop to think that that's what she did?? Perhaps her budget was actually $8000, and that's why she said $7000.

According to wikipedia, the marriage lasted less than 2 years.

@@stacymagnusson5683 😲

@@KD-fh8fc I just wish more people would focus on the marriage instead of the frills leading up to it. There would be less heartache and less debt.

@@stacymagnusson5683 Surprise, surprise. Mama's boy. Horrible MIL. It happened to me, and nothing can be more hurtful than having your husband choose his mother over you.

Well I thought it was wrong to give the MIL so much power. It's not her day, it's not her dress, so why is her opinion, the make or break approval given so much importance? She was brought dresses over $7,000 , when she had said her limit was $7,000. She's beautiful and the dress looked perfect. I wasn't thrilled with this episode tho. It just didn't sit right regarding the power given to the MIL.

I also think the outrageous prices for a dress worn ONCE is beyond comprehension. But I’m nothing if not practical. My wedding dress was a God-given blessing. It fit me perfectly without alterations, had all the features I wanted and made me feel fabulous, and cost $400.

you're her

I see the mother in law's vision. I don't see how the staff don't

what? the mom LOVED the second dress. FMIL just hated everything. a gazillion rhinestones = it's too plain. mermaid style = too broken up. fit & flare = not broken up enough. i don't know how anybody could "see the mother in law's vision" because she isn't articulating what that vision is and it doesn't even matter because IT'S. NOT. HER. WEDDING. (edit) okay they cut this together REALLY weird because at 3:36 she's trying on the daniella caprese dress that FMIL says "isn't broken up enough" but then at 6:37 they're putting her in the same dress and calling it dress #3 instead of #2.

The difference is that her mother is Her Mother. The MIL is just her mil. Her opinion does Not count when it comes to the brides wedding dress.

@@dawniebug784, really? You mean the manipulative, demanding, meddling, "I know what's best for my son" garbage she's displaying?

You don't have to win Miss USA to be beautiful.. All those girls that didn't win Miss USA still beautiful in every dress

First dress: the one in the picture that she showed them as the perfect dress. That they actually have in the store. That is only a few hundred over her budget. That she would have been upset had she NOT put it on. All the other dresses: in the same price range as the first dress. You: angrier than the bride for trying on the dresses. You did not see the video of her looking at the price tag, saying "too much," then sending them out for dresses all under her budget, did you? Perhaps the price (being a little over budget) was not as important to you as it was to her.

@@catladyfromky4142 Don't know why you are so mad fool, but when someone clearly states that they do not want a dress over a special price and that's exactly what you do, it's normal to feel decieved and angry. Even if she did look at the price and was upset they would ovbiously not keep that clip. The only dress that can be concidered reasonble to keep in this is the first one. "Only a couple of hundred dollars"? You're clearly quite ignorant and don't know the worth hundreds of dollars have. 100 dollars is 1/10 of 1000. Do you get that? The last dress was 7600? That number is closer to 8000 than 7000. And that is a little over the budget to you? Do you know what a budget is for? And how do you know she saw the price before she put it on ? I have watched there other episodes and they often tell them later. Making someone put on a dress, fall in love, than later tell them it's over budget is cunning and decieving. Of course they'll be okay with it and try to buy it anyway since they are already inlove with it and they probably can barely aford it. Look at all the dresses they have. You really believe that they dont have a single dress under 7000 that she would fall inlove with? You think that they coincidently have 4+ dresses that are perfectly above 7000 for their own benefit that can please her? You really believe that?

@@KD-fh8fc All retail store do the same it is called upselling .

Antonella does this ALL THE TIME!

I wonder why none of them ever say "sorry but that's over my budget, can you put it back?". It's not as if 7 grand is peanuts.

But if they didn't cause drama, would the show get as many views?

She brought them, yes? She wants their opinions, yes? And...if she had gotten the first dress she loved (that her entourage didn't) she would not have tried on the last one. So maybe they actually helped her to find the perfect dress. So maybe they were an asset. They all didn't just mimic her opinions on the dresses. So what? What are they there for? Why did she bring them? And you forget that this is a reality show. The application supposedly has a list of people you can bring, and then the producers tell you who you have to bring. The episodes all have a story, and the entourage is often part of it. Since all the brides apply to be on this show, they all agree to all the terms. If not, they would have a regular appointment that no one would see on their TV.

@@stephanieanderson3626 exactly

I agree with you 100%; is the bride it is getting married not them!!!! Tina needs to have her opinion if she’s married for her second vows!!!!! Her daughter-in-law is gorgeous and can wear anything; she needs to be quiet; she is rude!!!!! She was supposed to be a support system and not chaos!!!!

@@catladyfromky4142 Entourages are they to be an entourage! That’s it! Moral support. They don’t get a say on the dress. If someone wants options that fine, but it’s unnecessary for the consultants to keep asking and even let them pick out dresses

I did the same paid for my own and went shopping alone.

@Shannon Matlock: agreed! I loved that one so much!

Exactly! But this bride seemed to be a very nice and naive woman. Her mother seemed very kind as well. They appear to be people-pleasers or peace setters. In the other hand, the mother in law is more incisive and controlling. It's a "perfect match" of someone who likes power and someone who wants to please.

Confident woman. 💅 cheers to you🥂

LOL. Although I agree with you, some commenters here just saw what they wanted to see (because of the title perhaps). Some wrote that she may have divorced her husband because of this woman. Others wrote that the bride allowed her to dominate the appointment. It is weird how people can be easily led...

There wouldn't be a show if they didn't pick spineless brides (or those pretending to be doormats just to get on the show to generate drama).

@@terrib627 Lmao! True!! But it gets old fast. Surely they can generate drama some other way. I like watching the feuding exes (bride’s parents). That’s always fun! 🤣🤣🤣

Hello 👋how are you doing?

Same applies to giving birth.keep your vulnerable moments to your blood relatives

@@Impossibly_gorgeous exactly💯

The woman who is the bride, is still looking for an audience to cheer her on. This is a wedding not the "pageant world".

Ball gowns say Bridal, but women hear so much criticism they can't discern.

I know right? Why can't people understand that!

According to another commenter, bride and husband married in 2014, but are now divorced, with her now being married to someone else, so that particular MIL is no longer in the picture.

MIL wasn't even bad

Exactly my thought

I think that that's actually a green screen image

Could you talk about the experience, pls? Did you felt doubtful at any time? Did you decide to shop the gown without show to anyone? When my time comes I'm thinking about going alone but I have these questions

She was all over the place. She didn't know what she liked. I'd be annoyed too.

I'd say she's potentially part of the reason this marriage didn't last.

Why? This bride wants their opinions. This isn't your wedding dress, it is hers. And she wants other people's perspectives about what she will look nice in. It is not a crime for people - whom the bride purposefully brought - to share their opinions. Some brides want everyone to like their dress. And, since the brides usually marry in a setting with lots of people, they bring people who will be in the "audience" to share what they see. And brides often want people they care about to share in picking a dress. Just because YOU don't want to do it doesn't mean all the other brides have to do it your way.

@@catladyfromky4142 I’m going to be nice. Whose wedding is it the bride or the people she brings with her? Sure it’s nice to have opinions but it’s the brides choice or do you not get that?

@@catladyfromky4142 would you let someone pick out a dress for you if you did not like it? Of course you wouldn’t. Not your wedding either missy

Not mil was worst. Did you see her faces? All she cared about was her son. No wonder they got divorced very soon.
