Bride Sends Randy Into CRISIS Mode By Waiting LAST Minute To Buy Her Dress | Say Yes To The Dress 

Right he's always conveniently waiting in the wings of the bridal gown inventory bags lol

Ironic your handle is "Fun"... there is a formula why Monty, Mok, and David are in the other episodes...

He's probably wondering why cant he get more Canadian ladies and should he transfer to yes to the dress Canada instead 🤔. The few Canadian girls he gets, have no drama, know what they want

Does he actually help them into the dresses? I was just wondering if a man could be a consultant

⁠@@DylanRomanovno he tends to leave and let his female colleague dress them. i think there are some male consultants that can help them change but that is up to the bride and i've never seen one that helped them change that wasn't gay, so it's rlly just about her comfort and gender makes no difference !! these men have years in the industry the same as women, they know what they're doing 😁👍

Ask other people in the salon. Different opinions not just family. I value others opinions

Big wakeup call when I got married just 12-1/2 years ago. Went to David's Bridal. I'm an easy size 10-12, but they said I was a 14! Then they put tucks in the bodice, had to do a hem (all layers) and finally sew in hooks and eyes to drape up the short train for the reception....I should have bought a $5. rhinestone brooch at Target. The price of my alterations was almost half the price of the gown if I remember. I realized then that the wedding business is a racket.

@@brandywineblogger1411 lol same! David's bridal 12 1/2 years ago! Except I only had to adjust top a little

@@brandywineblogger1411 Omg….bless your naive naive heart lol. Your size in wedding dresses is going to be different than regular clothes because it’s a completely different thing. Yes you need alterations on a wedding dress because the same wedding dress in the same size will look and fit different based on your body. It’s not a racket. It’s just how it is with wedding dresses. And no duh they’re not going to have wedding dresses available on the rack in every size. It’s a wedding dress. It’s not a tank top at Forever 21.

The only alteration my dress needed was hemming $640 for dress $55 to hem. Make them measure and demand to see size chart for brand.

IF you are an 8-10, or 16 you can find a dress off the rack. My daughter is between 8-10 and she moved her wedding up and only had 3 weeks lead time. She ordered one online, a Maggie Soterro and got it altered locally with time to spare. But if you fall outside that it could be difficult. Like someone above said David’s carries a lot of in stock sizes.

He is such a doll. I love watching him on talk shows and he talks about how much he cares about the brides.

Because it's plain ridiculous. Just get a damn white dress and get married. The amount of money and drama people put into this event is insane. If you Americans would the same effort in your political system and your own private finance management, you'd be much better off than you currently are. This is just pathetic.

There is no rush. She's walking out with a stock dress.

Especially since they had to order the correct size dress for her. Yeah that's not going to be cheap.

@@mewtwomotherfukait has to be altered!!

In an episode that's around 15 years old 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

That's when you know you found the one. When you can sit on the couch and not talk and just enjoy being together in peace.

I wonder if they meant that they can make a dress in her given size, minus the fine-tuned alterations?

Where I live, shops that sell well known designer dresses all have in writing on their website when making an appointment that it can take 6 to 9 months for a dress to come in and then you need at least 3 months for alterations.

@@graceaxisa4213 High end designer dresses by all shops that sell them take 6 to 9 months to come in and then you need a couple months out for alterations. If she had gone to a shop that sells dresses made in china or not well know designer dresses, then only take a few weeks to come in, like 5 to 6 weeks. It depends on where to shop and what they sell.

you can pay a rush fee. Plus probably less alterations will be needed if it's only ordered a few months in advance because there's less time for the body to change.

Many couples get engaged and then break up . I think she waited this long to make sure that things will lead to marriage .

Whose to say that they actually had a wedding date set? For you to be so harsh on someone whose circumstance you don’t completely understand is very suspect.

They got engaged but probably didn't really make wedding plans until much later.

I'm so very confused. Where I live, many engagements are about 4 months long. To say that 4 months is last minute is wild to me.

​@@jachyra4 by me too but I know people engaged for ten years too 😊. I had no problems getting a wedding dress off the rack

Please speak only for yourself and don't use the royal "we." This episode is about 15 years old, btw.

@@jb6712 38 thumbs up on my comment - they are the "we" - goodbye to you, hater.

@@jb6712 they were actually speaking for both themselves and for me, so "we" is correct ☺

It takes time to make a wedding dress. Buying a wedding dress is not the same thing as buying a shirt. You can’t just buy it off the rack and expect it to fit you perfectly. You still have to do alterations even if you get it ordered. So getting one off the rack would mean even more alterations and more time and money.

Many years ago, you only needed to go gown shopping 2 or 3 months out and that even gave time for alterations, but not anymore. 6 to 9 months is the new normal.

I know a year in advance. Which means your tastes or body shape could have totally changed by the time the wedding rolls around

I’m tripping on engaged for 3 years yet waiting 4 months before the wedding to buy a dress! She probably didn’t think the wedding was even going to happen 😂

Fr it's a fucking dress

😂

There’s a difference though. There is usually no fixed date for furniture. There’s no urgency. You can wait however long it takes for it to be finished. The problem with a wedding dress is there is a fixed date. It must be shipped and altered before your wedding. That’s why the extra time is needed because there is less leeway in terms of time.

If you buy a dress made in China you will have it in a few weeks, but not high end designer dresses. They are all hand made to order and some materials are from other countries and production has been a mess since the pandemic.

Maybe she was going through something and now is in a rush. We don't know the circumstances. Be nice!

@@usfanlovesminho5085 I AM being nice. 😊

Haha, 🎹

Lololol

I know what you mean, I don't think it flatters her particularly but she's happy and that's what matters. I actually thought the first one looked better and she liked it until her entourage put a downer on it which was a shame.

Nope, wrong date. This episode is around 15 years old.

But the problem is if you want a higher quality dress in less time, then it’ll be more money.

It's just a bunch of hooey. They just don't want to pay more employees to have faster turnaround with the dresses. Bob Mackie used to design and have made completel gowns and customes for BOTH Carol Burnett show, and Sonny and Cher, and have them all done and ready in a 7 day time period. I ordered custom FURINTURE and it came in 12 weeks.

@@brockreynolds870 A wedding dress is different. It requires a lot more time and labor than you’re thinking.

My son’s engagement was less than 3 months and my daughter in law got a beautiful custom made gown in her home country- Belgium and that was just as Covid started, so the date was moved up and the location changed about 5 times. It arrived in NY days before the wedding and was stunning.

It really isn’t silly, especially when you consider everything else takes time to organize. The venue for example could be booked for months. It’s worth it to put in the time to plan a wonderful day. I rather a good quality dress.

I take it u aren't all that tall, are u?

Yeah I really don’t understand why wedding dresses haven’t gotten more with the times. I think that’s why David’s bridal and some stores are going out of business. My friend just got engaged and her wedding is in 2 months! 2! All her dresses were ordered online this week and she is returning the ones that didn’t work. The stores that can’t give the faster supply and demand aren’t gonna survive. Girls are okay with getting the wrong size and having it tailored locally faster if need be. I know they take time to make but they have to adapt and make styles that are faster to make because brides aren’t planning or waiting 1-2 years to get married anymore!

My wedding dress is from Kleinfeld, and we ordered it in August. It arrived from Australia in March. It was hand-beaded. That’s why it took so long.

@@andycalimara So? this is 2023.... they ship the dress on a plane, not a sailboat. It doesn't take 7 months to put beads on a dress. Bob Mackie had it done in 7 DAYS for BOTH Carol Burnett and Sonny and Cher.

Don't forget about all the other orders that need to be filled

I love that you have that skill :)

I've been an easy and comfortable 10-12, (Medium) and David's Bridal got me in a 14! Who wants to talk about that wedding gown size?

@@brandywineblogger1411 Wedding gown sizes are the old school military sizing from decades ago as the street clothes were also using that sizing system. Some designers though are now sizing their dresses the same as modern street size. If you watch an old show like I Love Lucy, said says she wears a size 12 and she was pretty skinny at a size 6 in modern size.

That is exactly what she should have done. But she would needed to have asked when booking an appointment what the turn around time was there as well since they could also be selling high end designer dresses like Kleinfeld.

Then I'm cheap too!

My dress was $300, I wouldn't have wanted to spend more than $500.

Maybe it’s just a status thing since Kleinfeld is so ‘iconic’, they only have expensive designer dresses. Also not sure if it’s just an American thing to pay a ridiculous amount of money for wedding dresses, since people also take out literal loans to pay for an engagement ring. In my country they’d call you absolutely crazy for buying a wedding dress even close to that price😂

Mine was a "last year's" style at David's on the sale rack. 😅 It looked awesome to me. I got it for $950. And none of our friends said, "Oh that's so last year!"

That is not judging, it is a fair question. IMO $3500., for a dress you only wear once is a waist of money. Unless you have money to burn and don't care about the price. I gave my daughter a budget of $2,000., and I'm sure she will find a gorgeous dress for that price.

I don't think that shiny material does her any favours. The floaty one was better.

Wish we had a "Jo and Al" over here. They have much more flattering styles for full-figured girls, and smother them with love.

At this point, beggers can't be choosy! A rush fee in a size 24 is going to be big money!

look up the average age for women to get married in 2023. she's younger than that.

and in 2013 when this episode aired it was 27, so she was right on target

You live in India…You have sweatshops in every corner lol

That’s why they do alterations hon lol

but if its a last minute surely they dont have time for alterations?? so its not last minute@@thehungrygoldfish
