I didnt get to choose my dress when i got married, mother in law chose it, and the place i was to marry, i cry when i c the brides smile n say they love their dress, im now divorced n have been for a long time, if i ever get the chance again n find my soul mate i hope i get to feel beautiful too... 😔
And if u find your dream dress does that mean you will be married happily ever after...the dress is secondary...you don't need a dress to feel beautiful...you need to feel beautiful in the first place
The part where she said she was voted least likely to get married in high school made me mad! What an awful superlative for the school to have. Even if they mean it in a “most independent” kind of way, why wouldn’t they just make that he superlative. Saying someone is least likely to get married could very easily turn to bullying. I hope that isn’t how they meant it for her. She is so sweet!
I got voted "most likely to get married first" only because I had been with my boyfriend for 2 years by then. And it pissed me off because I was sooooo much more than my relationship. I played soccer, basketball, track & field, and softball; I was valedictorian of my class; I was the lead villain in multiple school musicals; I was a painter and a singer; I did HMUN... like there was just so much about me that was watered down to "she has a long-term boyfriend so she'll probably get married first" which has turned out to not even be true since I know of at least one classmate who will be married before me.
You could tell that mom still wasn’t excited about the dress but she seen how happy her daughter was. So glad she let her pick her dress well mom did pick it out & said she would go up in price if it was the dress.
The grandmother was so sweet, and so encouraging with the dress the bride wanted. Like when she came back with the same dress and the grandma just knew it was right
As a grandmother I am looking forward to participating in my granddaughters wedding dress shopping -- I have been buying their dresses since they they were both a year old. This won't be about me -- this will be about what makes them happy.
I think she was the father's mother, or maybe she is not as traditionally Jewish as her daughter. Just the look she threw at the mother one time. I know a number of twenty and thirty something Orthodox couples whose parents barely make it to reform temple for the high holidays.
As soon as I see it’s SYTTD UK I get annoyed. 0 respect for their customer’s wallet. The only time they find something within budget and below $1500 is when someone comes in with an “unlimited” budget. Make it make sense. I need more Curvy Brides and Gok
Not what I call a smidgen.... (but mum pre-picked it) - which is kinda funny as later on she went to diss it on the first try-on. I‘m happy for the lovely young woman to have gotten her choice though!
They're in a bridal salon the $1,500 isn't exactly a realistic price tag for the location that they are in. If they wanted a $1,500 price limit then they should have gone to somewhere like a David's bridal. They are In the wrong place in the first place
They couldn't show her any more dresses? There are tons of different sleeves, fabrics and styles. Looks like they only gave her two very slightly different options (I know they cut the videos, but still). I'm glad she likes her dress, I just wish we could've seen her try on other dresses.
Well, although the price was over budget, she did have a limit, and it doesn’t appear it would be custom fitted, and from what I’ve seen of these bridal dress shows, what are considered lower end dresses are limited in variety
I know we're all our own worst critic but when she said her hips looked wide I was like....what? When my daughter gets married - I will only ask, "Can you sit in it? Can you eat in it? Will you want to adjust it all night?"
@@dannetterousseau4095 I had to have one of my bridesmaids help me with my dress when I had to pee! She lifted up the back enough for it not to get wet.
@@kcanded That's our job is MoH! 🤣 I overthought this one because my daughter is 6 foot but her BFF is 5 feet....I'm not sure she could handle the job! 😁
The SYTTD UK has too many all lace, illusion mesh neckline. I'm tired of seeing all the similar looking dresses over budget dress. Need Soulful Gok and energetic Randy next please !!
at this point I'm pretty sure the store does have it, but the brands and dresses they can show on camera don't. I'm assuming brands have to pay extra for the "free" advertisement.
her budget's under £3000 so they're going to stick her in all the dresses that are at least £2000. it's always the bridges with massive budgets who get the £800 bargain dresses.
You can’t tell me there isn’t a single A-line dress with lace and sleeves that’s in her budget. It looks great in her, she’s very pretty but it’s just a generic dress, nothing special so why so expensive? Do your job and bring something within budget.
The more I watch this series the more I see how blessed I am for my mom. She never batted an eyelash about my choice of dress, which probably wasn’t what she wanted (she is waaaay more modern than me). My parents also gave me my beautiful unforgettable dress that was very expensive. I felt like a princess. Thank you mom and dad. You were and are marvelous and I am very fortunate
My mom died when I was 8. I don’t know why but I went dress shopping a few times; always alone. In 1980 there were many dreadful dresses but mine was simple and 40+ years later I’d wear the same dress again. But it does seem odd I never brought a friend along.
@@MrsEJV I didn't bring anyone along either. I always to this day hate clothes shopping. I saw the dress in a catalog (1980s), called the store in my area listed in the back, went there and they ha one in my size. No alterations, no nothing and it was perfect. I had no idea until years later what a production is made about all of this.
It's pretty frustrating calling nearly 500 over a 'smidge" overbudget That's 1/3 of the 1500 they started with! They couldn't even try another one on?! There are people who genuinely can't afford something 133% of the budget
I agree. To me a "smidge" might be 10% over - not 33% more. I too wish they had shown at least 1 more option. However, the bride looked lovely in her dress.
Just 2 dresses to choose from? David Emanuel and kim always ask for wiggle room when in comes to budget. She didn't show her other type of A-line dresses. I think the trick in most episodes is put the bride in an over budget dress, get her to fall in love, manipulate emotionally and there u go, sold. I hope these people know that fitting and other charges take $400-$500 extra.
I can't help but notice that when it comes to religion, the desire for coverage is respected without a word, meanwhile your usual bride is sort of pestered to 'be open-minded about trying different silhouettes and options' including the bride that had a mastectomy who wanted to be covered. I think the consultants should always respect the desire for coverage no matter what is behind it.
@@daniahamdan8861 They would not do it to a muslim woman, why do it to anyone else? It is not just insecurities that make it happen. Some people just feel really exposed or were raised differently.
It also shows that at the end of the day, it's about sales and the hustle. Salespeople cannot be trusted. They never have the the client's best interest in mind.
@@daniahamdan8861 it isn’t always about insecurities. It’s about setting boundaries on what you wish people to see and not see and it can very empowering to feel like you control that narrative. It’s important for people to feel comfortable. I like to dress more modestly but I’m very happy with my body and weight.
While the mother wasn't 100% certain on the dress at first sight, I don't think she was being unfair to ask to see her daughter in others to be able to compare the styles to see if something looked better on her. Despite disagreeing initially, it was clear that Mom really did want her daughter to have a dress that she felt good in that fit the modesty requirements for a religious service.
She thinks her hips look wide. 😆 She has such a slight figure. It's amazing how 🤔 we can see ourselves so differently than how they actually look. We are our own worst critics.
You weren't paying attention to this episode. The dress that was over budget was picked by the mom. The consultant told her it was over budget before she even took the dress off the rack. The dress the consultant picked was under budget. So apparently you would rather complain about something that didn't happen. If you don't like this shop, watch the Lancashire videos or the Curvy Brides videos where they often don't even bring up the budget but always seem to always need psychological counseling.
@@cilantroisbetterthanparsley less modest is fine. Wearing lingerie and calling it a wediding gown should not be encouraged. It seems today the more skin it shows the better and that should be between a spouse and their spouse not for strangers on tv.
I think they did this bride dirty. I understand she likes vintage, so why couldn't they find her a better vintage inspired dress with in her price point? The dress she chose while pretty, was wearing her, instead of her wearing the dress.
It's funny that she said her mum would bring the conservative opinion but her mum actually prefers the modern look and the bride wants vintage/traditional
Idk what it is about this bride but she is stunning, like most people on the show are pretty but damn she just has this wholesome prescense. I hope she had a wonderful wedding!
This shop really annoys me. Budget 1500 first dress 1949 ,500 pounds over, 25% more. Are the consultants deaf. Why did the consultant even pull it. Check the price before you offer it.
Watching this makes me so happy! I had terrible salespeople when I was bridalwear shopping who kept trying to tell me I didn't really want a dress with straps or sleeves, and that I could always wear a sweater during the ceremony if the venue required it. Honestly, I think they just had very little stock that wasn't strapless and rather than admit they weren't likely to make a sale tried to make it my problem instead! I finally found a lovely shop able to add to an in-house dress and was very pleased.
I hate consultants who IMMEDIATELY go over budget right off the bat. This one does that a lot. Gok never does. Start within budget, end up over budget. Don't start out over budget. There's no way that there wasn't another dress she could've started with.
I have really different taste from my daughter and am already preparing for the fact that her choice may not be my favorite. She's beautiful in everything so I hope I can express that and be happy for her in that moment. I'm glad that her mother allowed her daughter to choose her favorite and it did look very pretty!
I have a feeling that mom watches the show and, knowing how they always show you dresses over your budget, deliberately gave them a lower figure so the daughter could stay within the real budget. Had she said 2000£ they would've shown her dresses for 3000£. I'm also certain the mother had the veil and alterations figured into the budget. If things got out of hand pricewise the family probably knows a seamstress who could alter the dress for less than the store charges. I also have a feeling Grandma would've reached into her pocket if the bride's choice was too expensive. Lovely bride. Lovely supportive family. Mazel Tov!
I like that they had a cathedral veil with blusher in the shop for her to try on. When I got my dress, the shop had no blusher veils or tiaras to try with the dresses!!
Young and innocenct that's what brides are supposed to be not used up, and screwed around with before their wedding. I agree most brides should remain chaste, so that way a wedding life will last longer.
@@sme7385 the only things could make a marriage hapilly long lasting are respect and love. I would like to tell you, most of my friends or people around me still virgin when they got married because that's a norm in my culture, but some of them still got divorce and there are also my friend who has to remarry 3 times.
I know a girl that dresses like a tomboy wears boys clothes, shoes, and doesn't want to get married and says men are stupid (most likely a lez). Now you can say she will NOT get married ever!
So, it's already over budget. With the lace at the bottom and her being short even at the correct size the alterations will be an enormous cost. Plus veil, shoes undergarments, it will be two and a half X's her budget. Horrible.
I'm so sick of the TV trope of the closed-minded, policing Orthodox Jewish parent. I can't think of any non-Israeli TV shows or movies that show positive representation of Orthodox Jews.
Good for mom. Not only did she support her daughter but she stretched her budget to do it. Her daughter is so beautiful and will make a perfect bride in that dress.
I suppose the girl wanted to do the show and they let her so more Jewish young ladies could be represented? Just there neckline,three-quarter sleeves, and girlish full or flowing skirt seems to be 'THE' Orthodox Jewish wedding gown hallmark style. More so than long sleeves, because of it being their bare minimum, they seem to wear a lot of it ,making it more their trend than any other. Three-quarter sleeves have to be just the right length so they look just so, and don't look over long short sleeves,or ill-fitting long sleeves. Also like it best with understated dresses without visible line across waist. An, 'too long' torso may look awkward,as well as a high-waist that gives the appearance of a foreshortened top. I would be very picky about this style. It is tasteful and nice. A switch from the ridiculous oouuuutdated strapless dress. These stores are in need of new breath and a fresh pair of eyes. Mazel tov to the bride and groom!
The grandmother is so chic, full of love, and seems very modern, open-minded, and cosmopolitan. She reminds me a lot of my wonderful mother-in-law (who, unfortunately, died of cancer before we married). This episode makes me miss her a lot.
I really dislike it when they show brides dresses outside of their budgets My daughter's budget was $1000. The 1st store was respectful of that. The 2nd store showed her a dress that was gorgeous but $1600. I had to say no. Buy my daughter understood. We ordered her dress on line then had to pay for alterations. We eked in under budget. She will be gorgeous bride.
A smidgey-smidge over budget. I hate how she always does that. Trying to make it sound like it's no big deal. How does she know how big a deal it is to the customer?
So - Kim does it again -- a dress way over budget. If I went into that bridal shop and ended up with her as my consultant I would walk right back out again ---- she does this far too often.
Kim did what? The bride's mom picked the dress. Kim told her it was over budget the moment she touched it. Kim's actual pick was under budget, but you missed that. So you did it again. You ignored that the budget was near the bottom end of this shop's price. You ignored that the bride and her mom had a specific style that she was looking for, and so her selection was very limited. And you also complain when the bride picked the shop (with the higher price tags and limited selection). If you have a complaint, make it a sensible one. This one is tired and doesn't even work for this episode.
I would like to know how almost 1/3 more is a smudge over budget? If the shop is not going to even try to stay in budget why even ask. If it was me I would just leave and go to a different shop.
I'm so happy the beautiful little princess got to get the dress that she really liked. Her grandmoms reaction was very heartwarming. Mom daughter and grandmother all look so very young God Bless! Mozeltof! 💕
It's so nice to see a modest and demure bride. So many comments here say she's lovely and she is. It's so refreshing to see a bride who doesn't want to show of her butt and the girls in a s exy wedding dress.
Y it’s not ur daughter and if her parents agree who r u to judge. Better she gets married to a one man than be like the regular irresponsible women who move from man to man having unwanted children.
Why on earth can't they find a gown with similar silhouette in the bride's price range? These shows always floor me. That said, she looked gorgeous in her gown.
This is the second time in a few days I’ve heard the word, envisage. Is that a thing? Like I always heard, and said envision, but then again I’m from Canada.
