he seems sweet, albeit a bit rough around the edges. But he's been backed into a corner to have a big and expensive wedding that he doesn't want and is spending all his money on their house. They need to take a step back first and get him on board with the whole concept, or change their minds.
In my country, everybody is sweet and nice until touching the sensitive issue as money and budget 😅 . An angel possibly convert to be devil in second.😢😢
I didn't make it through the show. I made it to the wedding day and he had forgotten the rings. How over budget did they go. And how soon till they divorced as two such different approaches to money do not make for a happy marriage
With a wedding you are all in or all out. If you want cheap you go get married in Vegas. If you invite 150 people to witness your day they need to be fed and entertained!
Omg, I was thinking the same thing! I am only half way through....all the begging for him to have common sense and I am breaking up with this episode! Next!
unpopular opinion: I really don't like it when " friends" know that you have a budget but are so eager to talk to you into a dress ( or something) that's 2, 3, 4 times your budget! She could've just kept looking for another dress that was more in her price range. You saw one bad one , so they were all bad?? There are plenty of dresses out there that were once worth $2,000+ but end up being on sale for less than $800! People always want to talk you into buying something, but you know good, and well, they're not going to help you pay for it🤷🏾♀️
IMO renting a wedding dress is phenomenal - eg a friend rented* a Dolce & Gabbana wedding dress for under $1K inc big alterations and bolero etc and it looked awesome... Also, nobody I know has ever worn their dress again - apart from 2 awesome women for >20 yr anniversaries.... IMO decade anniversaries should be more celebrated party wise/spend wise etc than a marriage because commitment is the test - love and lust are awesome ... and long-term stuff requires more of anyone than the 'Leap in the air Yeah' - if you can't quit, walk away etc you have to dig deep! Maybe I'm being too cynical here but famous people have a high divorce rate because they can walk away more easily without having to consider 'where can I live with kids' etc. EDIT - The rental included great alterations etc. And British Prime Minister's wife, Carrie Johnson (24 yrs his junior) apparently rented her very lovely dress* for under £200/$300 allegedly for ecological reasons. *Lovely dress but want to say I personally dislike Prime Minister Boris Johnson and his 3rd wife Carrie. They are Conservative and pretend-woke, pretend-green/esp when means they/their friends make bank.
I 100% agree her friend annoyed me so much. If you know your friend’s budget why would you push them way past it? I think the only time it’s okay is if they’re willing to pay the difference.
I agree. While the dress did look absolutely gorgeous on her and she loved it, the friend should have respected the fact that she was on a budget. I do feel like most brides on the show go over budget on their dress though because it is such a dazzling aspect to the wedding but yeah...budgets exist for a reason.
1. To me the 1st dress looked good on her, but bitchy friend wanted a more expensive dress and talked her out of it 2. That whole shopping experience was a nightmare even without the budget issue 3. Bitchy friend is probably the type to judge a ring by its price over whether the recipient likes it or if it has sentimental value I cannot think of anything worse than that shopping trip out of this entire thing... but then again, I hate shopping anyway.
Yeah her friend took the piss with that. Your friend has a budget which you knew and made her put on a dress that was way over the budget. What was the point of going to that store then 🤦🏾♀️
OH MY GOODNESS!! The husband is soooo freaking annoying & childish.Nag.Nag.Nag! I could never. And her friends are wrong for pushing her to buy a dress that' not in her budget... Actually this couple was a whole mess
I found him quite appalling and disturbing! She must realize who her whole life with him if she decides to stay she's always going to run into problems with him wanting to cut corners wanting to make things instead of buy things it's okay for some things but I found him to be a complete jerk but she puts up with it she has to live with him so be it
I actually get where he's coming from. He's sunk all his money into their renovations and she wants to spend the rest and her own on flowers. Plus he probably has a few medical bills. I feel had they given him some rope at the beginning he wouldn't have lashed out as much.
It’s a no from me, I don’t know if he was spoilt growing up but he seems like he is very used to getting his own way and not thinking of others. He was inconsiderate, rude and just overall annoying. The bride has a lot more patience than me 🤣 She looked beautiful x
I have noticed when anyone wants their way either for cheap or for wanting something expensive (or weird/crazy) they talk, talk, TALK non-stop until they wear everyone out!! ☹
This groom would have been happiest if they got married and had the reception in the church basement with a couple of dollar store streamers for decoration and a grocery store clearance cake.
Both the bride and groom did not seem mentally mature enough to get married if I'm being honest. Glad they are in love though, hope it works out. The wedding planners were just plain unprofessional, I don't like how they spoke down to their client!
He's definitely childish but I don't think he's that terrible. In fact, I'm more annoyed by the wedding planners. I found their attitude toward him very dismissive and unprofessional. He's not their friend. He's a client. And their job is to strike a respectful balance between what he and the bride want, not to roll their eyes and gang up on him as if his concerns are totally invalid. Ewww...
I kind of agree, the groom was definitely childish and really obnoxious. However once it was discovered on why he was very cheap towards the wedding it was very understandable. I 💯 % agree with you about the wedding planners! They were unprofessional and very rude.
it's more about what the bride wants not the groom. So he wanted to save money where they can. The bride wanted it her way. She should have stood up to her friends about the wedding dress. They should have gone to another dress shop for the dress.
I absolutely agree and was scrolling through here to see if someone else felt the same way. The wedding planners had to stay within their professional boundaries and do their bit. I found them to be dismissive and rude.
Buy that man a ball gag. He seems lovely but doesn't shut up and talks over people. And being cheap and making things yourself is great....as long as you ACTUALLY DO IT. Procrastination is not your friend when it comes to this stuff. Bless him. 😁
I felt sorry for the bride picking her dress, she looked so anxious, and think she would have picked anything just to get out of the store. It was so busy in there.
He's appalling in all aspect of his personality. He's cheap, self absorbed narcissist controlling bossy attitude type. He's such a person who has always gotten his way by arguing all the time. Don't know why she is marrying him with him no self regards to the bride
-all that money and the dress bust wasn’t fitted correctly?! It’s NOT supposed to gap at the top ladies! Alterations for that are easy! Otherwise it was a beautiful dress and reception. Loved the Fire Truck!
If you ever listen to any narcissist, they talk nonstop until they wear you down. And this groom is a classic example. Can you imagine trying to parent with him. And God forbid trying to co-parent if you split.😳
I genuinely thought that her friends were going to cover some of the cost for her dress, especially when they told her to forget about the price and asked if she loved the dress...silly me loool
he was trying to save some money. Even if the bride was paying, he was trying to save her money on some items. Never seen a cheese cake before. The fire truck was cool. Thank goodness they chose the closed in one. The cake stand worked out great.
The blond friends during the dress shopping must have been smoking crack. The fact she out here pushing the bride to purchase a dress that's way outta budget is so disrespectful and rude. I would be so pissed if one my "friends" bring a dress that a know is out of my budget.
I felt so embarrassed, even as a vier watching just how rude, insoltuve and repolsuve a cheap man can be.., and get away it...!!! The girls in for a ride...
Holy shit these shows get me every time! She didn't even want that dress. She didn't want to pay that much, but that blond hair girl next to her kept telling her that the cheaper dress looked like the price, which is not true it just wasn't the blond hair girls style. So the blond hair girl took it upon herself to pick out a dress that was much more expensive... the bride did not want to spend that much but of course she was talked into it. Friends that do that aren't your friends!! Only because your frind should not get you to go over your budget and spend more money that you don't have, or that you don't need to spend (sooo many lower priced dresses that are amazing)for example help the bride stay in budget and find a dress that is beautiful and that will still be in her budget and just help her get her confidence up more also. Obviously if it dosnt looked good say that in a way but not just say that then pick something more expensive you go a pick something that is in the budget or even a tiny bit over., but no the blonde hair girl was not accepting the brides answer about it being expensive... and a wedding is for 2 people not 1 I love this show but the girls that have it in there minds that it is all her choice what everything is,I feel it's nuts. Both people should have a say expeshially if the money is coming from both even if money is coming from 1 you both have to agree and understand that money should be saved in some areas. And be understanding when things don't need to be upgraded and upgraded and highered and higher. I understand that it is the one night of there dreams together but I think it could still be amazing and beautiful without spending alot of money and still staying on budget. Just my opinion.
This is giving me a headache. All the noise and fighting. They should have taken the class long before planning the wedding. And I am not on the bride's side either. These are the worst "wedding planners" I've seen. They are supposed to be making things easier for the couple. Instead they are just encouraging the bride to go over budget and to totally disregard to groom. Why pay them for that?
Wedding planners often get a % from suppliers - albeit the planners often get a discount eg 10% discount and they get 5% of the 90% - BUT ensure they have connections with the better value suppliers.
I will give this groom one thing, and one thing only. That money box was really cool, and perfect for their theme. Apart from that, he was a complete arsehole. 🤷🏾♀️
Stingy is different from thrifty. This guy will be a cheap, controlling, unrealistic, blaming, insulting nightmare who doesn't know the true value of money for the rest of his life. Sweetheart, I wish you'd have run away to Mexico.
She needed to: 1) leave her idot fiancé at home 2) her friend is an idot and shouldn't have talked her into that dress. It is easy to talk when she doesn't foot the bill.
Adam is so rude by hushing people and disregard what everyone else says... His bark is louder than his bite.....(by the way......dogs bark to warn you; that they are afraid or uncertain about thier surroundings). His DIY approach only supports my theory that he cannot financially uphold his wife's financial assets and resources. Kind of feel sorry for her.
Honestly everyone is beating up on the groom. Yes he's a bit rude but all I heard was three women talking over him the whole time and not listening to him at all. I'd be pissy to if I three men ganging up on me the whole time.
