I used to work in bridal! Yes wedding dresses run small but she should have explained that to you and the reason behind it. I did not work at David’s bridal but all the brides I would see from there were very upset, body shamed, and some in tears. It’s very sad. Happy you got your good experience and said YES TO THE DRESS!
You are pregnant, I’d be surprised if your dress size didn’t go up. You will be a gorgeous bride no matter what dress you wear. I really hope you are able to keep up with school. Having a good, dependable job will make such a difference for you and your kids. Plus, you just seemed so excited about school before.
Do you know when she's getting married though? If it's awhile from now then she would definitely need a different size, but I'm guessing it's soon otherwise she would've probably gotten a maternity dress....
Yeah I wonder when this dress will come into play since we haven’t even had an engagement announcement yet so will it fit when the time comes is the question….whether it’s a month from now or postpartum 🤔
it makes me so happy...that after all these vid where you were clearly stressed out...crying...what ever...to see you thriwing...happy ..college student...beautiful and smart daughter...and now growing your family and getting married...congrats Maddie ❤️ you deserve it 🎉
Congratulations on your upcoming marriage!!!! May you and Randy have a lifetime of happiness, love, and laughter. I know you have been wanting this for a long time. You have grown so much. I am excited to see Everly as a big sister and you and Randy as not only as new parents together but as husband and wife.
Dude that last dress your tried on was absolutely beautiful on you! They all did. I can’t wait to see the one you picked! Congratulations, u seem soo happy! ❤
I literally screamed out loud and scared my friends lol.....omg congratulations Maddie I send many blessings to you and your whole entire family!!!!!!!!!!! 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳😁
Girl it's your day and when you go to places like that you're supposed to be treated like a princess as well as they're supposed to be about customers and treat you as a princess not the way that girl at the other bridal store treated you. ❤️
Rushing marriage is never a good and that's not even an opinion. No, two years is not long and it IS rushing things, especially when at an age where both parties will go through so many drastic changes as people. Divorce statistics reflect that. I'm not being negative. I'm being realistic. I'm looking out for a fellow lady. I know how these situations often end and the kids are who suffers the most. I've been following you from the start & would love to see you have your happily ever after but it cannot be a happy well functional marriage if rushed, not usually anyway. Why not work on building a firm foundation first? The dresses are beautiful but you know what is more beautiful than that??: mastering conflict resolution and seeking a marriage counselor before marriage. Seriously! I recommend a counselor for every couple looking to have a harmonious lasting relationship. Why not heal some old wounds and arm yourselves with good advice so when times are hard you both know how to respond properly and emotionally regulate as good as possible?
@@ShockResistorin my opinion everyones “rushing” is a different amount of time. It is also effected by culture. in the country I live people get married 2 years after meeting, not even dating and thats the norm form us. everyone has their own concept of those things and I think maddie wouldn’t say yes if she wasn’t ready. also they have been living together for a while so I don’t think there will be much of a difference.
Culture doesn't change facts. People in cultures I've grown up with, and people in general, don't wait very long to marry and it usually results in divorce or an unsatisfying marriage. Maddie might genuinely feel ready but the odds of young marriages surviving is slim from a statistical/factual viewpoint. They very well could grow apart at their age and that's largely due to brain development not being complete at their ages. 2 yrs into a relationship for most is generally still in the honeymoon phase where the brain is flooded with pleasurable chemicals that sustain the love. When those chemicals fade relationships are tested. Why not wait to be tested and see if you'll still want to be together? Why not be well prepared for marriage instead of diving head first? Clearly we are in need of a cultural shift when it comes to marriage cause the divorce statistics are staggering. How sad that people will often invest far more thought to wedding planning than in arming themselves with tools for optimal communication and conflict resolution skills.
@@ShockResistor as I said, I’m talking about MY country. in my country the fact is divorce is low and the longest time I’ve seen a couple to date is 5 years. also maddie already decided to get married, you cannot change it if you like it or not, so why still say negative things? if you are not going to support or encourage them there is no use in talking at this point. as I said everyones concept of marriage is different. I know a couple got married at 18 & 19 and have been happily married for 30 years with 2 kids and I also seen a couple 30&32 failed marriage in just 6 months. those things cannot be determined/generalized with “researchs” or other things because every individual has their own path and development time. we dont know what will happen in the future, maybe that will be too late if they wait in the next years to marry and make their dream come true because one of them passed away. the regret you get from the things you didnt do is bigger than the things you regret doing. living with that “what if” is just make people miserable. i prefer to do things fast, at the moment I wish them to be done and I act this way. we are all different and our personal preferences are not the only true way. so if you dont want to get married before “your brain fully developed” fine lets do it but dont ruin the vibe of people who already made their decisions about life with your bitter words that will cause no good for them. she wanted to get married and she is doing it. she is making her dreams come true. thats a beautiful thing.
OMG I WAS SO SHOCKED WHEN I SAW THIS VIDEO!! Congratulations maddie!!! I love you so much your gonna be a great mom to your new baby bot or girl!! And randy is gonna be an amazing dad!! And even is gonna be a great big sister!! Congrats on your engagement!!! I love you and your family so much!!❤❤❤

You're absolutely stunning in each dress you've worn in this video. Sending hugs and love from South Africa. ❤❤❤ (P.s. I've been following you for years and years now so I'm just so happy alongside you and your family.)
Maddie I wanted to wish you a congratulations I've been watching your videos not for a long time I started watching them I think my second year of high school but I want to say that I'm really happy for you and that your daughter is very beautiful from the videos that I've seen her in she's growing like a weed and I hope that she is not so much of a handful which I'm sure that she is but again just congratulations and I hope that you and her father Isaac or still on good terms and I hope that he still sees her which you don't have to tell me if he does or not like that's none of my business but again congratulations and I wish you all the happiness in the world because you deserve it after getting pregnant at 13 years old you deserve to be happy
OMG when did this happen,??? Congrats so happy for you this year has brought you so many blessings so happy for you and can't wait to see what the future holds for y'all
I got my dress at David's Bridal. My experience wasn't that great either. They were really rude to my sister too at David's Bridal. I wouldn't recommend and not surprised they are going out of business.
Stop! When this video came on my recommended I was so excited! I’m so happy for you and Everly! Randy is literally the best guy ever❤️❤️❤️ I am just so excited for you guys to continue your family❤️
There never was one. Theres many videos with her embarrassing Randy about getting a ring. Then she got a ring at Christmas but no formal engagement. Then it was struggling with school career school career. Now bam, she states she and Randy wanted a baby and was so worried she couldnt get pregnant😂 Now the shotgun wedding So much for school....
i’m so sorry you had this experience. when i had my wedding dress fitting, i was blessed to have someone so supportive and nice. but i will say wedding dress sizes are so off. i’m a 4 in dresses sometimes a 2 and my wedding dress ended up being between a size 8-10. i know it’s very hard especially when it’s with sizing too. but you look beautiful
Omg Congrats Maddie I am really happy for you my sister is getting married too but she won't be getting married for another 2 years yet I just wanted to say congrats to you
Last year I was in my friends wedding. We went to David's Bridal too. My sale associate was awesome. My friend had someone that wasn't helping her and my associate was helping her more than her own. So we had a bad experience also.
Also congratulations Maddie I’m so happy you got a good experience with someone else!!! I’m sure your dress is going to be absolutely stunning!! Can’t wait ❤❤❤❤
You need to stop worrying about the size on the dress, even obsessively sharing to your audience what size fit/didn't fit isn't needed. You look beautiful no matter the number on the label.
Congratulations. A word of wisdom from an old lady that you probably don't want to hear. The dress was a great price. Bridal salons pray on the fact it's going to be for your big day. They assume that as the bride, her family and maybe a rich finance or his parents, ha ve plenty of money to splurge on your wedding day. Don't over extend yourself financially on your wedding. Keep a level head. It doesn't mean you need to have a cheap wedding. Just the opposite. Getting married is usually because your in love and want to spend the rest of your lives together. Wonderful. What happens in reality is everyones on a huge high looking so forward to the wedding. You will find it seems to take forever until your big day arrives. Then suddenly you wake up a week or two after the wedding . Your feet are back on the ground, the big day has come and gone in such a blur. Unfortunately too many couple wake up to the fact of just how long it will take to pay everything off. Most times yfour finding you have so much that money could be far better spent on. All I am saying is. Have a wonderful wedding day. Do it right to what you can comfortably afford. Family will understand. As long as you look great, the ceremony was so amazing, then after your photos have been taken, celebrate with your family and friends. Nibbles or finger food and couple of drinks are fine compared a sit down five course dinner that no ine really enjoys. Have some music and fun then time to spend so alone time with your new Husband. Before long, it's all history. The big day has come and gone. Now its time to move on being a family together. Don't make that more than it needs to be with massir wedding debt to worry about. I hope your wedding is everything you want it too be.
Why do you care what the size of the the dress is? It literally just matters if it fits does not matter what the size is it’s really sad to see how much you care about the size.
You look beautiful in all of those dresses! And I hate when workers are un pleasant and give people an overall bad experience for things but it happened for a reason since you found better!😊
I got my wedding dress from Sunday’s bridal and I absolutely loved it there. They were so helpful and helped me feel so good about picking out my dress by myself.
I went to David’s bridal for my sweet 16 and prom dress and let me tell you they suck when it comes to fitting and getting the perfect size for you. A lot of the dresses they have only go so far in size and it’s just uncomfortable. I’m skinny and have always gotten small or extra small in jeans or shorts but I have big boobs and broad shoulders so a lot of their dresses were either too big in the waist and perfect at the top or perfect at the waist but tight at my chest. But you should never feel bad about you body your gorgeous ❤️
omg !! me and river havent talked in so long, since the farmers market i think ? i cant wait to see river at school!! you and your FIANCE are soooo adorable!!! said he loved my turtle rock and everly got even more adorable since i saw her ! i hope i see you all soon and tell your mom that shes amazing ! i cannot believe that you and randy are already getting MARRIED omggg ! you have come so far and after you two lets hope avie and her bf too ! ( i met him but forgot his name sorry .. ) love you and ill be waiting for the wedding video! tell river i say hi and see her at school !!
hii babe!! i used to work at david’s bridal and took care of all operations & i always treated customers the way i would a friend,sister,mother. because it’s a big deal!! it’s a big special life moment!!! I loved being apart of it. I would recognize that this isn’t an everyday moment for everyone. even tho i do it everyday for a job. i will sayyy david’s bridal wedding gowns do run smaller!! like 2 sizes smaller. it depends on the designer & the material. also she should’ve taken measurements. i will sayyy thooo we normally have our clients try on the bigger size if we don’t have ur exact size. the bigger size is easier to clip to you and for us to hold against your body while you look at yourself. She did you wrong for putting you in a smaller dress. when she knows how the dresses are made. i’m always upfront with my clients and would let them know it does run smaller so don’t get worried or discouraged. because it might not be your street clothes size. As for double booking stylist have no control over that. mangers should’ve stepped in and took care of that. Every appointment lasts 1 hour. The stylist cannot go over that 1 hour. & for the veil.. the stylists have to grab it. the stylist can’t have customers do it. we can walk you over there and let u pick but employees have to grab the showroom veils. sometimes you’ll see customers doing it by themselves because all stylist are unavailable. Your stylist definitely should’ve been more friendly and she should’ve communicated more with you & made it more special and more like a safe place. i’m so sorry ab that love!! & im soooo happy you found a dress you LOVEEEE. i do suggest to leave a review on google about your experience at that location so managers can see it. They will use it as a learning lesson for her🤍🤍
To everybody: the numbers in sizing don't really mean anything at all as you can see. So just try stuff until you find something that fits good, don't care whatever random number is associated to it and don't let anyone shame you for needing a different size .
