Bride Donnetta brought twelve friends and family members to help her find a dress. But the day is ruined when they brutally express their opinions. Catch Say Yes to the Dress on TLC - Sky 133, Virgin 162, BT TV 323
They're all a lot of bullies. She devoted her time, money, energy, and love to an entire group of cackling, ungrateful women. Her daughter is a spoiled brat. This mother deserves so much more.
Yeah, her entourage was pretty obnoxious, but she refused to even show several of the dresses they wanted her to try on. The bride looked good in all of the dresses she tried on, but none of them were the showstopper that she said she wanted. I don't think the consultants served her well that day, because there are lots of dresses to choose from in that store. There is no way she couldn't find something that really suited her, and I think her entourage was keenly aware of that. Also, the entourage was remarkably consistent. They did not like any of the dresses the bride showed, but they were not in disagreement with each other.
I like how she thanked them for ruining her day & walked off with her head held high. Then they all looked shocked. She'll find the perfect dress without them.
Now that’s a bride with some gumption! After putting them first the least they could do was consider her feelings in the matter. They didn’t act like friends or family and should be ashamed of themselves. This is why I took ONE friend and NO family shopping when I went looking for my dress. She was engaged as well, so we had duel appointments and had the best time. I narrowed it down to two dresses then took my family to model them for them. Easy peasy, and I don’t regret doing it that way.
She deserves a crown 👑 She has so much confidence and she deserves to have HER day. Even with that amount of people she knew they were spittin’ bullshit.
I bet they weren't even ashamed of themselves. They probably had a watch party when this episode aired and laughed and acted like the childish fools they are again then. That's what's most sad... They didn't even learn from treating her like trash. I'd be looking for new family members. Family can be chosen, family doesn't mean you have to share DNA.
You are so right. People who are that mean have no sense of self-awareness, and for sure they don’t care about how they hurt other people. How did such a nice woman end up surrounded by this big gaggle of assholes?
I've seen some one off people be downright nasty, but as a whole group??? Yeah, their the worst. Not ONE kind word from the lot of them. Alllll these clowns would be walking home after this if it were me.
The rose color compliments her skin so well. Everyone was acting so fucking disrespectful. Shes so sweet you can tell and everyone just wore her down so bad were she cried almost everytime she walked out. Shes a lovely person. Just horrible friends and family...
I loved the rose dress on her. It was stunning. Not my usual preference with the skirt but ooh she glowed in it and rocked it and that waist accent did her so right. She seemed so so sweet, putting everyone else first. She deserved all the support in the world, not that booing!
They didn’t realize this video will never go away and they will forever see how stupid they looked and how they ruined that beautiful queen’s day!!! Shame on all of them😡
She is the most sane participant on this show. She realized her entourage was crap and decided to come back on her own and think about what SHE likes instead of pleasing everyone else
Their behavior was ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING! You can see the pain in her eyes as they boo her and laugh at her. I'm EXTREMELY disappointed in how her day was snatched up by their constant display of maliciousness!
I felt her on a spiritual level. I near cryed too and I'm not even standing there. It's a giant reason I'm not included my own family to plan anything for my day. They can come too the dress picking if they ask but imma let them know from the beginning that I'd kick em out if they try me.
She was crying at 1 point but noone noticed or cared! Feel so bad for her! Whatever she picks will be beatiful cuz it's what she wants what she's comfortable in !
They’re so embarrassing. They went there to make a fool of themselves and make a scene, not to help her find a dress. I hope they enjoyed their 15 minutes of fame.
The consultant behind her when she thanked them for ruining her day 😂 I would’ve been smiling as big as her if I was in her shoes!! They are real professionals to not be pissed at all those people bullying the bride.
You know I wonder if it was a mob mentality. If you got each person alone and asked their opinion would they All be so hurtful, rude and negative about every dress she liked? I don't think all of them would have thought the same if separate. If one of them would have supported the bride it would be like a pack of Wild animals out for blood attacked her or him. Yokes!
Can we talk about how she made sure everyone was going to look great at her wedding?!?!? Then when it comes to herself, her friends are cruel, selfish and rude. THEY 👏DONT 👏EVEN👏 DESERVE👏 TO👏 GO👏 TO👏 THE 👏WEDDING!!
She is a lovely person and it honestly broke my heart. I am glad at least monty spoke up because no one else did. I feel terrible for this woman. And the worst part is she actually did look beautiful in ALL the dresses !
The daughter Should be ashamed, I could never hurt my moms feelings like that. If your mom liked a certain dress, let her wear it. She's the one wearing it.
no seriously, i was APPALLED at the way she was treating and talking to her mom. just so disgusting and disrespectful. she straight up bullied her own mom. my mom and i have our issues but she’s my everything, i could NEVER talk like that to her. she raised me too well and i have some sense left to be KIND and RESPECTFUL. good on donnetta for putting all of them in their place tho and walking off with dignity.
There’s a difference between telling your mom something looks bad on her or that she can do better verses putting down everything just for the sake of raining on her parade. I want people to be truthful but there’s a right way verses a wrong way
Her daughter was obviously jealous of her mom. Her mom looked better then her. Sorry not sorry. Smh. And you can tell they really liked the last dress the way they looked at her. They just didn't want to admit, because they wanted to make her feel bad about herself. Because they were jealous of her getting married and her happiness. Smh.
She was 100% selfless. She made sure everyone else looked good at her wedding but put her down when it comes to her looking amazing on her big day is just disgusting. But the way she walked away after thanking them for ruining her day yes queen
Her family needs to shut up. She cried. They are horrible. That's not straight forward, that's disgusting. I'm pretty blunt but I am never like this. There is a line and they crossed it. Esp on such a special day. Horrible
Polina Znobina Right, on a family members special day I’d never cross that line. I’m rudely blunt to the point where I can make people cry but I know when to stop especially when it’s someone else’s time to shine
Exactly. The day should be more sensitively and profoundly approached than the tone they put behind it. It was aggressively cavalier and innapropriate for such a special day.
I thought she was a very beautiful, thoughtful, selfless woman taking care of the bridal party first. I believe no matter what dress she picked, she looked gorgeous 😊
I worked in a bridal salon years ago. The lone bride or a bride that came in with 1 person were my favorite and my best customers. I loved being able to really connect with the bride and listen to what she wanted and what was best for her. Every woman should be the star of her own wedding.
That was so rude, they were hideous and then they wanna look all butt hurt when she didn't sugar coat anything for them. I am glad the bride stood up to them but I'm sad that she didn't get to say yes to a dress at this appointment. She's right to say she will leave them at home and get the dress that she wants. They totally ruined her day and good for Monte for standing up to them too
Just terrible. Dress shopping was a really emotional experience for me but for all the right reasons. Every bride should have that. Honesty doesn't have to be cruel. HER opinion should have been asked for before these hyenas started screeching, but none of them were really there for her. So so sad.
But honestly, it wasn't the size of her entourage. The entourage was pretty consistent in their opinions about the dresses. Plus, the bride refused to even show several of the dresses the entourage wanted to see. I think the bride looked nice in all of the dresses, but I thought the pink dress showed the best silhouette. I wasn't crazy about the color, but I thought the dress would have been perfect without the feathery skirt.
@@Tes7000 it don't matter if the bride didn't want to show some dresses. Those ladies became a bunch of mean girls. They didn't have to laugh at her, they didn't have to make terrible comparisons like big bird...its like rude people always find excuses except for their own selves.
@@sophien5416 I hear what you are saying, but were they really _that_ bad? I mean, these are friends and family that she brought to give honest opinions, and they were criticizing the dresses and not the bride. At any rate, I Googled the bride and found a picture of her in her actual wedding dress. Her dress was very similar to the pink dress, but it was in white and the skirt was ruffles instead of the feathery affect. She looked beautiful.
Saying you're "being honest" and "keeping it real", is an excuse everyone who is horrible says to behave like disrespectful swine. What they mean is: _"I don't care about you, i just care about putting you down in the worst way I can get away with."_
When she said that she neglected herself and her dress, i was like “no no no sweetheart, focus on urself first. Everybody else’s outfits and accessories can wait. Put urself first, bride comes first, bridesmaids come later.” I am SO glad she had her confidence bcuz her family was immature fr. Tearin her down. U GO GIRL!!💙💜 SONT LET NOBODY NOR UR FAMILY BREAK U DOWN!!
Exactly. And poor Donnetta probably wondering, "Where did I go wrong? How did i fail as a mother?" She didn't. Her daughter must have picked that up from her aunts. Because clearly, Donnetta is the cream of that crop.
It’s not just because my mom wants respect, but she’s earned it. She raised me, I couldn’t even fathom talking about her that way. It’s so disrespectful. I could never put her down like that, I’ll tell her when I don’t like it but then you look for something else, a solution. This family did nothing like that, wouldn’t even listen to the bride’s thoughts. Doing that in general is rude, but a day that is supposed to be all about her, the bride should’ve dropped them all and uninvited them.
Shameful!! Anyone talk to my mother like that you will be sorry. And by the way I absolutely loved that pink dress on her. Was beautiful. Shameful behavior
I have a family member who's excuse for rudeness is "just being honest. I don't care if they are honest or not, there is rarely an excuse for bullying and insulting.
Honestly, how did they see that they made her cry and not try to comfort her at all? It's one thing to be immature and socially stupid but another to SEE how you're affecting someone and still choosing to be nasty.
So true! There's an episode with an Ethiopian woman, she brought like 20 people, and they were all supportive. Some of the comments were what could be termed as "brutally honest", but they were still constructive, not destructive. The bride found a gorgeous dress, and everyone was just happy for her.
@@snowbird1381 same. My bff knew her sisters would behave that way so she nixed the whole Familia and mad me the only bridesmaid and the only one who went with her to find her dress, decorations, requirdos and to get hair and nails done. It should be fun and light and happy, uplifting not upsetting.
Nemesis Pelaez Its funny how people out you in dresses that they like, not what you like. When I went everyone wanted me to wear a mermaid or trumpet style dress, when all my life I wanted a princess or a line. That is how I always saw myself on my wedding day. I on the other hand, would never ask a bride to try on an a line dress or ballgown if I know that is not her. We are their to support the bride.
Honestly I feel like she brought them bc she trusts in them to encourage her and make her feel special on her special day, but that’s not what they did they were only being loud toddlers
They totally had that coming. Their behavior was more suited for a Chippendale’s show than a bridal dress shop. I am glad she made the wise decision to go back to the shop by herself the next day.
Can't believe how cruel her entourage were. No wonder she had everyone except herself sorted - selfish, grasping, over-entitled, spoilt little sods! After the wedding maybe she needs a rethink on how many of those people she continues to allow to swallow up her time and energy. Wanna give her a huge hug.... She looked brilliant in all those dresses.
I really wonder if the daughter was being bitter because her mom isn’t with her dad, possibly they don’t know who her dad is, maybe they do know but the mom choose someone toxic originally and she’s mad at the mom for finding someone better when she’s already an adult and missing a father figure. Not an excuse just a speculation
That is because she has been allowed to be disrespectful as she turned into a teen. Mothers out there, it is not a phase and they do not outgrow out of it. You need to teach them to be respectful, or they turn into total bitchy brats.
didn't even realise that she was her daughter. If I talked to my mum like that I would have been slapped till I've seen my ancestors.😂😂 But on a serious note, when the daughter said that her mum deserved that for bringing a large group of people I was about to throw hands.
How disrespectful the daughter is. I wouldn't dare and couldn't ever hurt my mother like that. The lady trying on the dresses is so sweet, she doesn't deserve the hate her 'family' brought to her.
Your missing the point. The way her group attacked and laughed and ganged up on her was a bully tactic because it was about what they wanted. They did not even hear what she wanted and they didnt care to. It was about them.
Yeah, it is just like when my mother in law had a cancer and still went to work doesn't matter how crappy she felt. Sure she lost her haur during the chemo and when it started growing back, she left her wig home and went to work with a brand new hairstyle - just short hair. So what do you think??? There comes a post curier and that b**ch tells my mother in law her hair looks ugly! My mother in law was like"wtf? Who are you to tell me things like that?". The answer of that "lady" was : she has gotten the right to have and tell her own opinion by law! 🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️ You stupid cow, to have the right to express your opinion doesn't allow you to be rude and insult people.
I'm sorry but I would never bring that many people to my appointment. People like them are definitely a reason I keep my circle small whether you're friends or family
seriously, i'm a minute and a half into this and wondering why the consultant wasn't immediately like "no i'm not having a baker's dozen all screaming their opinions over each other in this appointment, bride needs to pick 3 people and the rest of you wait outside."
This lady was/is a push over. She's too nice. Literally said in the show that she wants to make them happy. But she deserved SO much better than this. You can bring a lot of people, but make sure you bring real supporters instead of these... harpies.
As a long time fan of this show, that’s the one important thing I learned. My first shopping experience I went with just my cousin/MoH. When I got down to 2-4 dresses in one bridal salon after doing extensive searching, that’s when I brought my mom, grandma, and my bff/bridesmaid. That’s it. I didn’t wanna drag myself and other people around from store to store, knowing having too many choices will overwhelm me.
Wow. Absolutely disappointing to watch this. I felt heartbroken for the bride as she valued her friends and family’s opinion. The fact that one of her friend’s said she doesn’t feel bad, is selfish. Getting married is a huge stepping stone in life and getting rid of this entourage was the best decision the bride made for herself. Get it girl, it’s your day!
she cried too but she also took that moment to look out for herself. How can you have that many people and not 1 person speaks up for her! All of them need to see the scissors, cut cut away!
“Thank you all for ruining my day.” “She did not just say that.” And they literally say that like they weren’t just talking horrible about her when she has such a big heart that she put them first!
Me: to the bride to be "you don't need the entire huge entourage to include them in your wedding day" they are friends and family but come on menk, these ladies are the meanest of this planet. How about somebody should have told you can try every dress you want to look and feel better and we us your judge tell you which looks great on you . they are so harsh on her. By the way they ain't the ones walking the aisle and you wear what you feel being comfortable sexy and gorgeous. Wedding is not just the dress but yourself tying the knot to your company for the rest of your life hopefully.
I'm glad the end, as she was walking out. Thanked them all for ruining HER day. It's NEVER a good idea to bring that many people, to pick out a wedding dress....
They are so toxic. You could tell she liked the first dress but they didn't even care and they dismissed her opinion. They kept on sending her back so she could wear but what they wanted but didn't care what SHE wanted.
@@prettygurlChrissyD I get that the producers want drama, but this is over-the-top mean, bitchy behavior by her entire entourage. That bride should've rescheduled her appointment and just walked outta there.
I was a wedding consultant years ago and I ran into a party like this. Beautiful woman around the same size as this bride with a large party and they were so cruel to her. Every dress she put on she was told she was fat and ugly. I stayed with her in the dressing room for 13 minutes as she cried. My manager tried to talk to the party but they were awful people. The bride left her appointment early :( I felt terrible and disgusted.
And they acted surprised when she said they ruined her day. Like, the person saying “oh, no you did not just say that.” Like, YEAH, she did! Cause it’s true! You basically said she was ugly in every single dress she came out in without a SINGLE positive
Exactly that one girl said she not gonna sugar coat it if it’s not her dress but be nice about it not negative like it’s her day that she’s gonna remember for her life
This group is just hating for the sake of hating. That rose dress looked beautiful on her, her skin compliments the color very well. The dress doesn't make the bride, the bride makes the dress
I think it might also be because she didn't walk out in the dress they picked out. I think from then on it was a wrap. They legit were hating and making fun of her as some kind of payback. Hope she dumped this crew or at least got a sincere apology from them.
I really liked the silhouette of the pink dress on the bride, but I wasn't crazy about the dress itself. I think it would have been perfect in white and without the feathers all over the skirt.
@@isiswilliams7208 I Googled her. She ultimately got married in a dress very similar to the pink one, except that it was white and the skirt had ruffles. Beautiful and a perfect choice for her.
Hell yes. Just wish someone could have been that FOR her so maybe this pack of hyenas might have piped down. How are you gonna scream and yell cruel things about a woman who so obviously loves you? Waaay too much.
