Claire is getting married in twelve weeks which means that David and Sue need to find a dress that will fit the bride perfectly! Catch Say Yes to the Dress on TLC - Sky 133, Virgin 162, BT TV 323
I never had “the bridal moment,” I tried on two pretty dresses and bought the second. Thirty one years later, still got the guy, the dress is in the attic and life is good.
Lola, similar experience with myself as well. I tried on a dress I saw in a magazine that I loved and a store near where I lived stocked it. So I went alone to try it on as my mother and I didn't get along due to her judgemental personality, I chose to have a stress free fitting. I wore that dress and everyone loved it, but I still wish I'd tried on more dresses. But I too have been married to the same guy for 23 years now, still love him always will.
@Lola Fitzgerald too many people forget to plan the marriage whilst planning a wedding. Still having your chosen one is about as special as it gets. Beautiful
Oh why does she have such a low self esteem? She’s so pretty .. lovely girl.. and she looked beautiful in both the dresses.. I hope she’s more confident now.
I know, I thought "girl stop being so hard on yourself, you are gorgeous and stunning, how can you think you are not?" she could pull off anything 😭🌹❤😍😍
@@Betina17 Not always. I've been married for almost 23 years and my husband has never once said that I'm anything but beautiful to him. But factors from even before him from my youth have damaged my self esteem to the point that I find it hard to believe him, which I know he finds upsetting. I'm getting better but that self doubt is always there.
@@TheFlyingmartini I would gladly sell my soul for hair like hers! It's gorgeous! So is she and it's so sad she can't see how absolutely beautiful she is. Both of those dresses were beautiful and timeless. One more thing: she'd look amazing in a burlap sack.
LaSopRAWna not really- if she felt more happy and comfortable in the second one it was the right choice, it’s if she feels confident- the first one was gorgeous but she didn’t feel comfortable wearing it- she made the right choice for her.
This bride is gorgeous but it’s a perfect example that no matter how objectively beautiful someone is, they can still be self conscious. We must be kind!
My 13 yo daughter thinks she's thick and ugly as her 11 yo brother said she was. Unfortunately he's super clever at Maths, and she's about average. She is beautiful though, inside and out. My 14 yo daughter is able to ignore her brother better, so he isn't as mean to her.
i hate it when people say there are 'expectations' for a bride...no, it's her day and if she wants to get married in a bin bag she is perfectly entitled to.
I think he was a little desperate for her to like the dress since he only had two, and she really did look amazing in it. She kind of needed to adjust how she saw herself.
She is such a beautiful girl the first dress was better but she looks beautiful any way,, i hope she starts to look to herself in a different way and realize how beautiful she is
@@crazeegalin Auntie Gok is so excellent that you almost want to find or invent a groom, just for the privilege of having him help you find a perfect dress!
I know! I 100% agree. she looked AMAZING in that first dress! Stunning! She looked cute in the second dress too, but man! She made that first dress look absolutely amazing!
And she can dance in it! The dress will likely feel so comfortable and movement-friendly. That can make a big difference in the amount the bride enjoys their wedding.
The first dress was so beautiful on her and matched the country style outdoor wedding with a light and swinging full skirt. Shame they didn’t jack her up with a veil etc. to show her, maybe this would have given her the needed confidence boost. Second dress is nice for a small cocktail 1950’s type wedding but really more like a bridesmaid dress in white. She is such a beautiful woman, she just doesn’t see that....
That's their job though isn't it? It's more fun to watch when they're nice and the dress is pretty and affordable, but it is a business and at the end of the day their job is to make as much money as possible
Julia Sikes I know that, and they’re probably also on commission, but it’s super annoying to watch imo. It’s also most common on the UK version I find, rather than the other ones. This one wasn’t as hugely over budget as other ones I’ve seen, but for her it was still an extra %25. I’d be a bit bummed if I fell in love with an over budget dress that they helped pick for me.
@@aigistone6784 I agree and I wish the point of it was just to help the bride and find a way to stay under budget at the same time, it's always frustrating to see reminders that what the consultants really care about is the money
Julia Sikes yeah... I do definitely appreciate when I see in episodes that sometimes a consultant will warn the bride like “hey, unfortunately this is over budget. Would you still like to try it on?” Because I’ve seen brides go “Yeah, sure!!!” And also “Oh, no that’s okay”. I would definitely appreciate knowing beforehand so if I did fall in love with the dress the price wouldn’t be a surprise and have me possibly reconsider it :( .....but who knows how I’ll be thinking years from now when I do eventually get married haha
@@terrib627 they should atleast try and not be like this is all we can so take it or leave it.. . in such a big store they could only find two dresses under the budget and in her size?? Is that it?? Couldn't they've tried to look for more in her size and make something happen for her? Couldn't they've tried to help her gain some confidence in herself and make her feel beautiful about herself?
@@terrib627 and also if they are not there to help people out then what is the need for a consultant Brides can just walk around the store and look for dresses in their budget try it on and get on with it. Consultants are there for a reason and these people don't take their job seriously.
@Mellow Wine. We are forgetting she had no time to order and wait several months for delivery. She had to purchase a sample gown for that reason. Budget was a consideration for her, as well.... I do agree David can be a bit "chilly" at times.
@@lolareh8756 no I am not forgetting the fact that she had to be given a sample gown because of the urgency but still only coming up with two dresses in the entire store is a bit much.. or less should I say Only 2 sample dresses under 1000 pounds?? Really???
Pity the bride is kinda short on self-esteem. She honestly looked great in both dresses. I can see why a tomboy would pick the second dress though, and it will be excellent to dance in.
What a tragedy that this absolutely lovely girl can’t see how beautiful she is! I love how her sister used the word she said she was looking for: “She looks amazing!” 💕
Google it. She didn't wore this dress! Her dress was beautiful!!!!!!! I loved this dress but it wasn't what she needed. Thank heavens she found another one! So happy for her !💓💓
Her eyes r not going with her words.. It's like just for this dress is on budget and she tried many dress and have no more time so she choose this dress... Not with heart.. She is looking beautiful but she deserve more
Honestly! I would NEVER go to this wedding shop. "with her budget and her size and 12 weeks". I bought a designer dress one month before the wedding. I was lucky they had my size, but NO ONE gave me any shit. They keep presenting the same dresses and always go over budget when the budget is low-ish while huge budgets get affordable dresses, that cost less than the "low ish" ones... and 25% over is not a "smidge over". PS she is very beautifull and has a great slim figure. I hope she gets to see that. all the best to her
I know Exactly how she feels. Feeling uncomfortable when dressing up, feeling not good enough, never feeling pretty. The only love I've ever had told me i was ugly twice, and it destroyed how I see myself. May God free us from these negative feelings towards ourselves.
That dress suits her perfectly, and having her hair pulled mostly back really adds to the Jackie Kennedy look, simply elegant and timeless. A dress to wear for almost any type of wedding.
That bride is absolutely beautiful!!! And I totally LOVE the dress she chose. It is elegant. I've never seen a wedding dress that length. It must have been much easier to wear and move around in than the big, bulky dresses!
Amazing to see those awesome shoes too. Nice to see a different length dress. I'm getting bored with all the princess dresses. They are getting to look one and the same.
She’s actually beautiful, and this dress is perfect. Maybe a pillbox with a little blusher veil would’ve been perfect, but she does look absolutely amazing!
It just goes to show that you never know what people think of themselves. I don't think anyone would deny that- that girl is a stunner. I bet she looked amazing in all of the dresses she tried on. Hope she's happy with her choice-she looks fab.
Her dress doesn’t match the theme and style of her wedding though. Her decision felt rushed, probably because she didn’t have much time left but still... I feel like Gok would’ve gotten her the perfect dress.
my junior high graduation dress was literally the 2nd dress, except it wasn't in white, it was black. i'm not kidding at all. though from what i remember mine was around $100 lol. it's a pretty dress
THIS THIS is what a supportive family looks like even though it looks like they liked the first dress more they saw how much more confident she was in the second
@@nirishmashakya8219 Wpw, thanks. Her dress was super gorgeous and more suitable. People need to be hones and say the truth about someone these dresses and the fit on the brides. The first dress was Nic, but the one she ultimately chosen just didn't look right on her and looked more like a prom dress.
Seriously? They couldn't even stick to her budget !! The bride is beautiful, I only wished she met Randy or Gok.. The result would be much better with less money to spend..
She looked amazing in either dress. This second one (I'm getting Audrey Hepburn vibes) might be one to be worn again for a big event, styled differently. That's not "only" a wedding dress. Wish I had thought of that when I got married! ;-)
It is sad that some people are so hard on themselves about their appearance. This woman needs to work on her self esteem and confidence, cause ,girl,you looked phenomenal in the first dress. Glad she left the store happy with a dress tho
She literally has nothing to be insecure about. If she had've realised that earlier, she could get a dress she loves, rather than a "cute" one she got rushed and pressured into.
Am I in a relationship? Yes Am I getting married? Omg no, I'm still studying my mom would kill me Am I watching say yes to the dress every single night before I go to sleep? YESSSSSSSSSSS!!!!
Yeah we do the same. I think getting the dress 3 months or 1 month before the wedding is a perfectly sane thing to do. How long does it take to choose a wedding dress really?
It's because at these bridal shops women try on dresses, and then the consultants measures the brides and send the measurements of to the designers to custom fit them for each individual. If you're someone with generally proportioned figure in a normal size range, off the rack can work well, but many people need extensive alterations or custom fit to have such heavy gowns fit appropriately.
She is a beautiful girl. She has low self esteem. She should be more confident! She looked beautiful in the first dress. Like Cinderella. I wNt one like tht :(
sorry to say this... but you should have choose 1st dress... and that jack her up things... veil and all they should have done it with the 1st dress....
exactly, i was watching one yesterday and her budget was £1,500 and she tried a beautiful dress on that was £999 and it was gorgeous and full length, and she only had 3-5 months to find one
I can guarantee that she is going to regret buying this dress.😭😭 She's being too hard on herself and just chose this dress as a compromise. Her eyes do not seem happy AT ALL.
@@leonie7356 if it was JUST A DRESS then she wouldn't have tried on more than 20 dresses. I do get your point tho, and feel the same way as well. But it’s different for others, some girls dream of their "Perfect Wedding Dress" and it’s okay if they get a little upset when the dress isn't up to their standard.
I think it would work. She's not going to be worrying about stepping on the hem or getting grass stains on it, plus it would be much easier to dance in. I would be more worried about the heels on those shoes getting sunk into the grass and getting stuck, possibly throwing her off balance. I hate wearing heels in grass.
If people were telling me I look cute in a dress I’d be like ok back to the racks. And also I hate it when brides go in with such little time and then they are so picky it’s like it’s partly your fault that you have such little time.
