Paralysed Bride Goes Straight To The Bridal Store From The Hospital | Say Yes To The Dress Atlanta 

This bridal store makes the pedestal ACCESSIBLE for wheelchair users, by providing a ramp. That's huge. Thank you, Lori.

I found her on FB! She wore the dress, looked FLAWLESS, and had a baby in 2017! I just love her spirit of triumph!

I almost cried people don't realize the blessings they have and everyone should give thanks

My heart goes out to this sweet bride. When she was talking about people standing up hundreds of times a day and how she just wanted to stand up one more time, it made me get teary eyed (I don't cry). I'm unable to stand for more than a few seconds, so I truly understand the desire to just feel normal. The dress and the bride are beautiful. Wishing her and her amazing groom all the best in the future. God Bless!!

She had to face a tragedy , but still she had the courage to face it . Courage at this level is not common nowadays. Wishing her a extremely happy married life.

She looks stunning, truly stunning and with that killer smile, she’ll look amazing on her big day. Think I got something in my eye....

I am a grown man and cried through this entire thing....MANY BLESSINGS to this wonderful couple!!!

I read it as "Bride goes straight to hospital from dress appointment" 😥 so glad it's the other way around ☺

We can't forget her fiance, what a supporting guy!

I hope she stands up someday.. I believe in medical science.

I hope the police found the person who did this

Coming to terms with an acquired disability can be so hard. For so many people, myself and my mum included, there's a grieving period where you really do mourn the loss of the life you had before the disability. Finding acceptance of your new life is hard, it's a process, and there's no right or wrong way to grieve, or right or wrong amount of time it takes. I hope she had a beautiful wedding full of joy that marked a new chapter in her life - one that does include joy, not despite a disability, but WITH a disability.

I can see the sadness in Lori's eyes.... She just wants to find the best dress for bride and make her super Happy Edit: 5:29 : oops she actually cried ,never knew she's gonna cry

I guess Lori regretted 1000times saying “who’s gonna be pushing?”

Got addicted with "say yes to dress".......

Sad story but so inspiring. I think she has the attitude (most days) to take control of her life and get it back. My sons neuro dr is in a wheelchair but from our very first appointment the wheelchair is NOT what stood out about her. She ALWAYS wears the most amazing shoes. My little girl would always be with us for their appointments and to the this day (about 8 yrs later and counting) my daughter wonders what shoes she’ll be wearing this time. She likes that about her. We don’t see this poor lady in a chair. We see a dr, a wife, a mother, and a lady who has a thing about shoes.

An innocent life affected to a senseless shooting, all but 23 yrs of age.

She looks gorgeous! It made me realize how many things in life we take for granted. One thing I noticed and I don’t know why but when the family came to give her a hug after she picked her dress, flo bent down to lock her wheel chair. I don’t know why I noticed that but flo was looking out for her and is a great bridal consultant.

When she said she wished she could stand up just one more time I just lost it --- I was a blubbering mess. God bless her and I hope she has all the happiness she so richly deserves.

Shout out to her CNA-she’s very good at her job. It’s hard to dress someone who can’t help you, and the fancier the clothes the harder it is. The bride must be a very nice person, not just on camera. The CNA hugged her at the end, and it looks like they have a real relationship, not just a working one.

Lorie is the best owner she cares so so much and will go to any length to help bride's especially ones who have struggled or life handed them a bad card

she's so pretty and strong. wishing the best for her wedding.

Lori is such an incredible, caring woman. I love watching her step in and make sure her brides are happy. This is why she’s so successful. It’s not just about the money to her. It’s making little girls dreams come true

We don't realise the value of things we have until we loose them 😐 We should start admiring every little thing we've got 💜 Don't take things for granted 😐

She picked a beautiful dress. Most importantly, she picked a fantastic groom. They are already living their wedding vows. For better and worse, this couple is likely to stand the test of time. Many blessings, miracles, and joy to this couple.

God I’ve never realised how much I take for granted that I can stand, when she said ‘people stand hundreds of times a day and I’d give anything to stand one more time’ it made me tear up, bless her

I love how her parents are supportive of her decision, this is probably one of the most wholesome episodes of this series...😍😍😍

Maybe I'm biased, because I'm a paraplegic, but this has to be my favorite episode. It's great to know that, if I do get married, it's still possible to find a great wedding dress.

She's a beautiful bride and the dress she picks looks lovely on her

I'm crying with her I couldn't imagine wanting to walk one more time after what she went thru. Good for her for getting married to a wonderful man that he appreciates her for her and nothing else 🥰😍😭

As a person stuck in wheelchair and with a disfigured body myself. Their help and treatment to help her feel beautiful and comfortable was exceptional. Stunning dress, beautiful bride xxx

This is not a wedding dress video nor a sad video - it's an inspirational video - this beautiful young woman's strength of character, her bravery, her positive attitude are inspiring.

Can't even imagine what she must have gone through. We take the small action of standing up for granted. Let's learn to be more grateful for our blessings 🙏

I felt touched by Lori’s compassion and bride’s vulnerability! I wish her all the best!

I once saw a wheelchair company demonstrate a device where the bride could stand and I believe slowly roll down the aisle. I hope it has been produced. I also saw a wheelchair that could climb stairs.

I love her and her entourage. She's a fighter, and the folks with her were so nice and supportive!

OMG. Who just started bawling their eyes out. So happy for this girl. So much confidence and courage.

I love how everyone is so Non-toxic! They are so supportive! 🥺❤️❤️

I'm a Reverand who LOVES to officiate ceremonies - but over the last 15 years I've developed 3 chronic pain diseases. I currently must perform weddings seated. I tried to stand for too many ceremonies and nearly fell at the end of the last. Now, I have a tall stool that I bring to each marriage ceremony and it is perfect. It allows me to be receeded a bit so the bride and groom are truly the center of attention and I can still do whatever is needed during the formalities. I feel very blessed to be able to continue to do what my heart desires. 💜 👰 💙

she looks GORGEOUS in the last gown

I love how the family are so supportive smiling on each dress

This bride had such positivity and dignity. So glad she found the dress she was looking for

I love how excited and joyful the rehab attendant was for her. Sometimes it just seems like they're strictly about their work but its so sweet to see that kind of relationship.

“When you say push, reality hits” But hunny, even if she were to say “whose going to walk you down the aisle” it’s still going to hurt. 😓😓😓

This is one of the best episodes ever. Everyone was supportive and loving and wanted the best for the Bride Lauren. Lauren, the best is yet to come because you are a strong wonderful woman.❤️👍

Im literally addicted to this show 😂

I hope and pray that she and her husband will be blessed with everything that makes them happy in life❤wether that be a baby, or a job,or just each other💗❤💛💚💙💜💖

My brother is in wheelchair... and I can't describe the hope she gives me for his future. I hope he find the right girl as well

She is so brave. She is a fighter with a beautiful soul. It brought tears to my eyes when she said she would do anything to stand one more time .

Lord I'm praying for Lauren. And I'm bawling. I can't even imagine if that was one of my 3 daughters.

This is one of the most heart touching episodes. The bride has such an amazing attitude and her family and entourage are so supporting and just want her to be happy!

This girl is just gorgeous, she picked a super beautiful dress. I wish her all the best in her new life

Lauren is a beautiful and incredibly strong bride. I hope she had the best day.

such a gorgeous, strong bride. god bless her!

Lori is a wonderful human being. She treats these brides like her own

What a heart breaking story 🥺 but she looked amazing and I hope she has the best wedding day ever!! 💕

I was hoping that they will give away dress for free... Bride looks beautiful.. I wish her recovery and happy married life 🎉

The way she's trying to berry her dispare with a facade of a smile so ppl don't worry abt her, even wilist crying. Despratly trying to keep that smile to prevent herself from wallow in her sadness 😥 I've definitely been there before. ❤ _May she find true happiness someday_ ❤

Her positivity is so inspiring. Such an unfair and horrible thing to happen to someone completely uninvolved who was a bystander. And her entourage is so supportive. I hope her wedding was amazong and she loved every second of it

“It’s really hard sometimes.......but the fights not over” I literally said “periodt” out loud. In that moment she checked her negativity and kept looking forward

I’m loving how confident she is and how great her attitude is. She is turning tragedy into triumph. You.Go.Girl!

I don't cry watching these but yes, this did it. My daddy had a stroke at 49, and was hemiplegic. He couldn't walk me down the isle and we couldn't have a father/daughter dance. He did though practice writing his name over and again so he could sign my marriage certificate. It was the best and even more special when he passed 4 years later.

"I still picture myself standing" oh my she is so sweet😍😍

Never have I seen a more beautiful bride to be! Congratulations Lauren!

Seeing this made me sit down and look at my legs. Lord I’m so grateful. I’m praying that a miracle happens for her one day. God works in mysterious ways and you never know when you’re due for a miracle❤️❤️

No one will be looking at anyone else except this beautiful bride. Lauren you made the exact choiceI and have your dream wedding dress💕⭐️👍🏻🙏❣️

What a strong and beautiful woman! And can we just acknowledge how supportive her entourage were? That is how it's done people! :)

She looks AMAZING! So gorgeous! And she is so courageous! From the hospital to her dream dress, she is amazing and her dress matches her perfectly.

Seriously you didn’t even feel Like she was in a wheel chair Stunning.

Going to stop grunting and groaning every time I get up from the couch due to pain and discomfort, and just be thankful I can get up. What a sweet bride!I was bawling the whole time.

Episode was a tear jerker. Bride is courageous and beautiful. Lori is the best!

I’m not crying. It’s raining

🇬🇧 That really brought tears to my eyes when she said “ I would give anything to stand up again”

I hope Flo is appreciated for the loving care she gives every bride. She herself is a beautiful woman.

This bride has to be one of the most beautiful they’ve had on this show - inside and out. I’ve been married twice and never felt deserving of a dress. I’ve told hubby I want one when we renew our vows. I just love how caring and sensitive Lori is and would love to visit her store.

Such compassion from Lauri it was so awesome to this bride. Wishing the bride all the best for the future

I love how supportive her mom and family is. She looks stunning 🤩 be strong hun

Never take the little things for granted. The simplest thing, is what you'll miss the most. She's already shown how strong she is, she will see just how amazing she is in time.

i love how the entourage reacts enthusiastically in every dress she comes out

Lauren's story touched me SO deeply!!! I am the mom of a wonderful young man who was left a quadriplegic with no speech after devastating illness when he was 10 yrs old. We are over 22 years out now and though their circumstances are dramatically different (I can hardly imagine all that Lauren has experienced) we have come to realize that he (& we as a family) were meant to Dream New and different Dreams and to explore completely new opportunities after his life was so dramatically changed...(as well as ours). YOU, sweet Lauren, are SO WORTHY and DESERVING of ALL the LOVE, HOPE, JOY, & HAPPINESS THAT LIFE CAN BRING!!! I KNOW that may be hard to hear and process right now but I can tell you with CERTAINTY that it will❣❣ NEVER lose hope for ANYTHING because EVERYTHING is a small victory worth celebrating!!!! Blessings to You Lauren, your Honey, and those you love, Dear One!!! ~Love from a Momma from Texas!!

So heartbreaking but she is alive and will have an amazing future

What a beautiful bride. You already don't notice the wheelchair with that beaming smile & personality to match. Needed tissues for this one.

Girl you are not alone . About a year ago I broke my back due to a car accident . I know it’s hard but just push threw things will get better I promise ❤

She’s so strong... I love her 😍

Ohhhh I love how adorable Lori always is 🥺🥺 she is soo kind and helpful aww mwah 💖

I totally cried like a baby. I wish everything good to this sweet lady!

Prettiest bride I have seen ever!!!! That smile is beyond GORGEOUS!!

she is such a precious beautiful girl.....so beautiful

I just love Lori, she has such a great heart, and this episode... OMG got me into tears.

She's such a brave heart! Can't imagine how hard it has been for her.

I think you look WONDERFUL!!! Lauren no-one could ask to look like you!!! You are BEAUTIFUL INSIDE & OUT!!! GOD BLESS YOU!!!💒🎂

Wish this girl happy life and hope she can still walk some day, I will pray for her lucky chance.

Bless this woman, and may she live her life in a very happy marriage! 🙏🏼

This episode really reflects what hope and love can do. This beautiful bride reflected authentic happiness and looked stunning. Thank you for upload it.

When she said people get up and walk hundreds of times without even thinking about it while she’d do anything to do it one more time...wow. Didn’t realize how blessed I am. I hope she’ll be able to walk one day.

What a truly inspirational young woman, she looks gorgeous, I wish her and her new husband all the love and happiness in the world xx

I wish I could see that wedding! She will be a beautiful bride on her wedding day & I wish she & her man the best. She touched the hearts of many viewers here. Thank you for sharing this moment with us.

Big shout out for the attendant who supported her.

PURE Determination.......🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏..

She's absolutely stunning. God, please bless their marriage. 💕
