Bride Takes Her Fiancé & Future Mother-In-Law Along To Her Bridal Appointment | Say Yes to the Dress 

this was a REAL appointment

She and her fiance were so, so respectful in their disagreement! It is encouraging to see how they handled that.

I love how the fiance and MIL respected her and stepped back

It was refreshing to see the couple and the MIL all communicating in a respectful manner.

For anyone wondering, they are no longer together and Chris married another bodybuilder named Alexia

I was with my wife when we chose her wedding dress, and we're still enjoying our life together for more than 35 years already! 😊😊😊

I don’t know why everyone is taking it so negatively. Her fiancé and his mom seem really supportive. It is great to have a good relationship with your mother in law. They both seemed supportive of her and it was a nice gesture that she is paying for her dress too. She spoke up and they listened so what is with all the negativity? Some are saying to take your mom but sadly as we saw on the episode with Samantha how bad that was. At times, mother in laws can treat you better than your own mother. Plus, there is nothing wrong with your fiancé seeing you in your dress before the wedding. It is just a dress and sadly too many are placing too much importance on a one time dress.

This was a little scary at the beginning, but was glad they understood they needed to back off a little and let her make HER decision. I hope they are happy together and bless that Mom's heart. I hope every decision from this point forward will be THE COUPLE's and not Mom's. Very generous of her to offer to pay for the dress, but still, it is YOUR wedding and YOUR decisions.

Thank God , you got the dress YOU wanted , that’s the way it should be . They make a beautiful couple ❤😊💕

This groom agree with everything his mother say. Does he even do any own decision?????

I’m just glad she got what she loved.

I really wasn't sure aboutt his one at the start, but the fact that they spoke so respectfully to each other, and when she explained how he wasn't really helping and he backed off straight away, that's when I really liked this couple and can see them being very happy for many years to come.

These people seem really sweet. His mom is going to LOVE those grandkids for sure❤❤

the number of guests who wind up in the stockroom is insane, can't they put a DOOR WITH A LOCK on that room? that's like wandering into the kitchen of a restaurant because you don't see anything you like on the menu.

I shopped on my own, did research first and then listened to the consultant, she knew what she was doing, I picked a black and ivory number suited to my shape, and personality, (I used to ride a motorbike and lived in jeans) took my Mum to the final fitting ran into the shop and hugged a huge pink dress with a tu tu skirt, and announced this is it, my Mums face was a treat, when she saw the actual frock, she loved it. My advice if you do take anyone take an individual that will be supportive of your wishes, but truthful and thoughtful with their opinion best wishes

She looked stunning in the gown she eventually chose which neither her fiancé nor her future MIL could shoot down upon seeing her face brimming with pure joy.

i'm sure this won't surprise anyone, but he's married to alexia now (fellow body builder) and her wedding dress flairs at the bottom with tulle. i guess she knew how to stand up to his mom

What an amazing, patient, understanding and beautiful bride. True class!

My wedding plan was to see the look on my hubby’s face when he saw me coming down the aisle…..for the first time, in my dress❣️ That’s part of the fun of a wedding. I didn’t even show him pictures from the catalog.

Y’all. It’s a show. A show meant for drama. They didn’t go searching for dresses on their own. 😂. It’s part of the show. They promote people to act certain ways.

This fiance is wearing jeans and a t shirt, definitely the mark of a true fashion expert. 😂

I don’t like bashing people for giving their opinion when they were asked to attend to offer their opinions. In the end, he listened when she asked him to step down, and they supported her choice, all of which speaks to a really healthy relationship

The GROOM and the MOTHER IN LAW IS SO SWEET, relax guys, those chaotic moments cause they want to help. And how the BRIDE say thank you and tell him what she really want, it made me cry.

Girl, RUN.

Keisha is my favourite consultant.

BEAUTIFUL ❤ They ALL AGREED🎉🎉🎉

This guy was so respectful and really listened to the bride when she got the courage to speak up. I really think he thought he was helping. I love this for them ❤

She looks absolutely GORGEOUS - and SO happy, in that last dress. I'm glad the hubby to be and his mom realized that it wasn't THEIR dress to wear, but HERS... Congrats and Best Wishes to & for the couple!

I love! how they speak with each other. That's Goals❤

Someone is married to mummy. Wedding might be fun but marriage could be tough.

I brought my mother and my mother in law to try on wedding dresses. Both were supportive and it was easy to get my dress.

The mother in law should not be paying for the dress. Where are her parents? She's old enough to buy her own dress. I really like the MIL.

The way the MIL got her first glimpse of the first dress, then turned and whispered, “See? I told you!” to her son, and then turned back with a fake smile - that rubbed me the wrong way. You two should not be having secret side convos and exchanging snyde opinions about the dresses. If you have an opinion, save it for when you are asked, and say it kindly and considerately. And when he said, “That’s the one,” he immediately looked to his mom for validation, not his fiancée. They recovered nicely though.

Very sweet and calm family 🥰❤️

She looks stunning

It’s a brides choice. Who cares about the mother-in-law’s choice or anyone else’s?

I feel very grateful to say I have the same support from my fiancé and mother in law. I’m very lucky in that department ❤

Love the first dress and the one she chose. Both dresses are gorgeous.

This actually choked me up.

I did some searching. She goes under her maiden name and her latest photos show a trip to Florida with some girlfriends. There's not alot visible on her page but there's a pick of two of them in 2015 and no wedding photos I can see.... make of it what you will....

Bride is outnumbered....Run...

Gorgeous.

As I watch this show for years, I’m so grateful that I found a beautiful gown in a magazine, went to try on the sample, which didn’t fit on my newly reduced size 13 body so I couldn’t leave the fitting room, but imagined it would be perfect, and promptly found a dressmaker who made it and my matching veil. And I did this only with my MOM because I thought it was OUR SPECIAL TIME TOGETHER. No entourage, no outside opinions! Then I picked out my bridesmaids dresses and had them go and try on and order them. Boy things sure have gotten complicated since 1978!

you marry him after just a few months? that's way before you really get to know who he is! this appointment was a good test though. Now RUN!

This is the Biggest Red Flag 🚩 I’ve ever seen on “Say Yes to the Dress”

What a sweet bride. Were the groom and MOG doing some acting? So glad she finally stood up for herself!

Girl RUN! The red flags are flying like crazy with him and his mother.

Have no idea who came up with the idea to pair chocolate and peanut butter. But it WORKS. This dress is playful, traditional but FAIRY TALE beautiful on this bride. Like a Reese PB cup, best of both worlds.

I just took my husband shopping for my dress and loved the experience. We have been together over 40 years. But the we have always been best friends and love each other dearly. I can’t imagine taking anyone else. It would have been a disaster if family had been included.

She wants to choose her dress!!

That dress was beautiful on her.

OMG, cannot believe they are in the back room looking for the gowns.

I chose my dress myself. I would never have dreamed of having my future husband there while I was choosing my dress. I knew what I wanted I got it, and I was delighted as was my husband and family on my wedding day.

Run!!!

I cannot imagine being able to shop there for a dress then think it is ok to walk through the stock room picking dresses myself! The consultants know what they are doing let them do their job!

Everyone has the right to bring A FEW people of their choosing to the appointment. Ground rules need to be established before they walk through the door of the bridal salon. Anyone who can't remember to stick to the bride's ground rules doesn't need to be there.

His mum convinced him to dislike a dress before she even came out

Respect for respect

Disrespecting his bride already, and letting his mother do the same. Good luck girl.

Red flag he controls what she wears. Why is his mother paying for her dress? Another red flag. The dress is supposed to be about the bride. She is the rare jewel in her gown.

Ok, at first I hated that they took over the appointment, but then they also backed down. Also, I don’t think the stockroom should be open to anyone other than staff.

I think that if Chris and his mother love her, they should let her chose her own dress. As mother is paying for the dress, the obligation to please her is going to be regretful

Does anyone know how designed the dress and what collection it is from? It's beautiful!

Ladies, it's time to stop obsessing over marriage and instead focus on understanding what it truly means.

Eight months… i've taken more time choosing a weeklong vacation spot

glad that the feance was not difficult when she talked to him

Red flags aplenty from that groom. Hope it all works out for them both.

Tell them to leave and get your mom!

oh nooo! girl, runnnnn!!!! 😅

Modify your budget and choose for yourself, and surprise them all on the day! Of course, the drawn out process of meddling dynamics could show whether to ditch him and his mum now, before it is too late 😂

You need to show each dress full length front and back. Otherwise it's hard to evaluate the dress. Sometimes I have a sneaking suspicion a full dress isn't shown on camera because the producers don't want to give particular designers free advertising.

Flo rocks!!

Aw aw aw Mother in law, play nice.

If a man insists that he has a say in your wedding dress, I can almost guarantee you that he is controlling and manipulative. It’s a man and his mother gang up against you and make fun of you, I can guarantee you’re going to have a miserable marriage.

Fiancée at wedding dress appointment is not just “untraditional”. It’s supposed to be a wonderful surprise on their wedding day for the groom to see his bride come down the aisle. It’s supposed to be the moment that is worth waiting for for them. Otherwise, it’s like “you read my list and I got everything I wanted with no surprises” instead of “wow, that’s beautiful” (on the day of the wedding) Still gotta be extra careful with who you pick to come on the bridal appointment with you. Like Randy said.

I’m NOT bringing my future husband to my bridal appointment 🤨😑😑!

That marriage isn't going to last

Very pretty dress

Wow, what a nightmare. She should have had the divorce attorney present as well

One thing that I would never do is to bring my fiance to my dress appointment I don't have a mother in law because she's deceased

The red flags are all there. Run girl! Don't walk but run!

Run for the hills

NEVER bring the fiancé or future mother in law to your appointment!!

What a wimp, he lets his mother pay for the dress! But the bride needs to wake up, cause that future mother in law is going to be trouble

42 years of marriage here: my husband and I picked out my gown. Once I got it- he did not see me till I walked the isle in it. He looked at me in it after our vows and continued to ask me if it was the same dress. No curses or bad things. It's just a tradition. In this case: HE WOULD HAVE BEEN KICKED OUT! Thank goodness it was not like this.

There are brides from this show who do not get married in the dress they said yes to. Others have called off the wedding and still more ended up divorce not long after.

I always say dress shopping is experience for the bride with who she spent good times with maybe Mom, Nan, Bestie, Sisters. I get this. But, the moment MIL FIANCE IS THERE. It is not being superstision etc. Its the time you get to spend few hours alone.

Omg warning ⚠️ mummy's boy!!!!

Well that’s going to be a short marriage.

I sure hope this marriage works.

Get out now unless you want to submit all the time. Between the mother and fiance.😮 He's already married to his mother.

Don't marry him, run for your life😮😮

I hate when the person who holds the purse strings thinks she can dictate!

This was tough to watch in the beginning, but I’m glad they both realized that they had overstepped and then backed off

Now my husband, at the time my hubby bought my wedding dress for me since he is deployed. He wanted me to pick out my dress and he paid for it.

Please give us a good view of the dresses.

The groom looks like such a crybaby

I picked out my own dress.

where is her family?

So is he bringing mommy on his honeymoon too? Run girl run! He is not the one! So many red flags with this guy. It is only going to get worse.
