This bride's aunt and mom want very different things for her, which might lead to a chaotic shopping day. Catch Say Yes to the Dress on TLC - Sky 133, Virgin 162, BT TV 323
The aunt also said that the dress she picked "flattered her shape" - it didn't accentuate the brides curves at all.. just very up and down; while the dress the bride chose actually showed off her femininity
The bride should have gone ahead and bought the dress she wanted. It was her mother's role to put her aunt in her place - in a nice way, but firmly. The aunt ruined the appointment - and thus the memory of this experience.
Trust me, had this been my daughter and sister, I would have told my sister to get lost and told my daughter that we're going to continue this appointment. That SHE gets to choose. And if her Aunt doesn't like it, she doesn't need to come to the wedding! 😠 No way would I have allowed what happened here. It might not have happened on camera, but it would have happened.
That’s why you gotta raise the money and buy the dress yourself. And if they say no, but you’re saying yes, just buy the dress right in front of them and boot them the hell out of your day
@FAKOKTA first of all, whatever self projection Ur trying to push on me, nip that. At what point did my comment come across as me trying to justify this behaviour. Touch grass.
@FAKOKTA I brought up childless Aunty because THEY brought up that the aunt was childless and I can relate to that. They also state that's why she feels entitled & I am saying that being the aunt with no kids who is like a second mom is not a reason to push your opinions and wants on your nieces/nephews
@FAKOKTA In the case that your not intentionally trying to misalign my comments, I beg you to please go back to school & participate in English lessons cause you need it....BAD. If you're just rage farming, then you're pathetic 😭
Exactly! I didn’t even know exactly what looked best on me until I tried it on. I wanted a mermaid style dress and hated the style on me. I absolutely didn’t want a puffy princess dress and fell in love and purchased a puffy princess dress.
I was married in 2000. The best thing I ever did was go shopping with only by best friend. My mom couldn’t get the ball gown fantasy out of her head and I wanted an easy day, which wouldn’t happen with my family, so they got left at home. People were hurt but they got over it. Twenty years later, my mom agrees I did the right thing
“I have been married twice.” Lady, my mother is on her third husband and she’s the LAST person I’d go to for any kind of wedding related advice. (Trying to cut out the pesky emotional manipulators out of my life.)
Even if she were paying for it or contributing some payment. It doesn’t give her the right to pick the dress. If you are going to gift someone money, don’t ask for it back, either gift it from you heart and just be there as support or don’t bother doing it at all. It shouldn’t be held over someone’s head. So messed up.
It breaks my heart that she now wants to go alone. Her Mom was so supportive and I feel like she really would just want to go without her Aunt but is worried about specifically excluding her.
The bride: "I love it." Aunt: "NO!" The bride: "I really like it." Aunt: "I'm over this, I'm ready to go." *It breaks my heart and filled it with rage. Like, even the MOM was supportive! This auntie situation reminds me that unlike the body, the mind and the heart doesn't mature automatically.
It's sad tho, how the mom couldn't step up to the aunt, but as why I understand why the bride couldn't, probably because going against trash, controlling people like her when you are small, makes you lose your power to stand up to that person and time can only worsen that, so seeing as the mom spent way more time with her sister, she probably feels that too. It wouldn't be a surprise if it were because their parents fovoured one over the other so the aunt turned out to be that controlling while the mom can't stand up to her... I don't know if it Really was like this, but point is that both the bride and the mom seem like they think they have no power over the aunt
Too nice. The mother abdicated her role to her sister years ago. I wonder where the bride's father is...makes me think that the aunt stepped into his role.
I wish she or her mother had stood up to the aunt, cuz if she's this controlling over a dress, i can only imagine how everything else in the poor bride's life must go
Yes, it’s terrible... there’s a story here as to why this Aunt helped to raise her. It seems the Mother is afraid of her own sister. Murky waters in the family history... I hope this Aunt doesn’t interfere with the bride and grooms lives after they are married.
She did say what she liked and stuck to it, but she's young and her mother doesn't get into it with the domineering aunt. ...she needs to leave aunt at home and go shopping with her kind and supportive mother.
@@Hayata_dair_hersey95 The bride talked about it during the intro., that's what I was talking about. She said her Aunt helped to raise her....and whatever the circumstances were the Bride"s Mother is afraid to speak her mind to her own sister who I bet has been a controlling person since way back...
This mom is awesome. "I just want her to be happy." that's love. I hope the next time, she takes her mom. All her mom sends out is love for her daughter.
I'm torn - I say "no I'm not", but I'm also getting divorced this month 😂 I guess my divorce is amicable though, as we realised we are just different, rather than one of us being the "baddy"
@Sarah Cook thanks so much 💕 I'm doing really well (separated for 18 months), & loving my new life. My ex & I are good friends to the point of talking about the people we've both recently started dating! He's a good man...I will never regret marrying him - but he is definitely a city guy, & I am definitely a country girl 😊 Thanks again for your kind words x
I love her mom. She wants what the bride wants, which is what really matters. She defends the bride and tries to control her sister. She has an opinion but isn't forcing it on the bride. Exactly what a mom should be.
So much hate for the aunt (though understandable), I wanna focus on the mother!! I just love how supportive the mother was. When she heard the bride say she likes it, she smiled and agreed whole heartedly❤
Exactly. I understand that mamas sometimes want to see their daughters in a dress of mama's dreams. After that, hand over the torch and let your little girl grow into the woman getting married.
I cant believe a "grown woman" would try to bully her niece into buying what "she" likes, what a selfish woman, if I had a family member do that to me when I was buying my wedding dress I would have not so kindly told her to leave
I got married 4 years back in traditional Hindu ceremony in red saree. Only my fiancé and me went to buy the wedding dress and jewellery 😀 no stress at all. But again I am addicted to SYTTD 😀
Honestly, when the aunt was grumbling "I'm SOOOO over this, I am ready to go" I would have said "Well, go then. This is MY day and MY dress and I would have appreciated it had you supported me in finding MY vision and not your own. The bride was willing to try both her aunt's pick and her Mom's and she looks STUNNING in the one she chose for herself. Just because it wasn't a pageant dress, the aunt had to be nasty. At least Mom was supportive of her daughter's vision even though it wasn't her pick.
Oh her mom was an absolute sweetheart. And she's right: the only thing that matters is that the bride loves it! And it flattered her SO well. I wish they had glammed her out. Saw the comment about her and her husband still being married as of last year. Good for them!!
@@drmayeda1930 then she could say that. Instead she bragged about her failed marriage as if that made her in any way superior to anyone else's opinions.
I wish that Lori, who could normally shut down rude family members, had stepped up for the bride more so. The bride's confidence level just fell, because the aunt got her way.
the look her mum has every time her daughter states she's not in love with her aunts pick is absolutely priceless. I love this. Her mum doesn't even try to hide her smile.😂
Bride: I love it. Aunt: No! Me: There's the door!! *can the bridal industry start addressing these people and make them leave if they clearly see the bride is uncomfortable.
I was wondering, too, where the retail politeness must end and either Lori or Monte should have found firm words... or what the retail etiquette is in such situations.
But the reality is it is a family matter. I’ve seen situations where people intervene and the family that was arguing team up together to go against the person trying to help saying “mind your own business”.
Usually they put the veil on and the bride gets her way. I liked the mother's choice and the girl's choice. I did not like the aunty's choice. They probably did not invite the aunty, she probably heard they were going and just barged in. Her mother liked it. Next time just take your mother and sister. Sister did not even get a look in.
I worked in a bridal shop and a co-worker asked a lady to leave and she ATTACKED us online for 6 MONTHS and it was over a prom dress! Not even a wedding dress! As cruel as it sounds, it's up to the girls to be careful about who you bring. Never feel obligated to bring anyone who doesn't put YOU first.
@@bethanya99 Kind of why I just brought my mother in law. My mother couldn't be there and my mother in law was only there. My mother in law wasn't pushy or anything and overall it was a great experience.
"Hunny I got married twice I know the difference between pageant dresses and wedding dresses" Hunny, Monte and Lori have dressed MILLIONS of people in wedding dresses, you are not above them 😂😂
With a toxic aunt like that she ruined the experience for her niece. Was so pleased when the bride said next time I am going on my own to choose my dress.
Saying you’ve had two or three weddings means you know wedding dresses well, it’s like saying that because you’ve owned two or three cars means you’re practically a mechanic.
Gok always seems like he likes playing dress up but it works cos sometimes one of his picks is nothing like what bride originally wanted but its perfect
The aunt needs to shut up! This is the young ladies wedding not the aunt's. The young lady should be encouraged to make the choice. Her choice was beautiful!💘💘💘
Auntie says she’s done. Pageant wave her goodbye and carry on. Mom was supportive but it’s too bad she wouldn’t tell her sister to back down instead of just wishing she would.
Can the Aunt honestly not see the look on this young woman's face as she walks out in the last dress? She looked so happy! That should have been what mattered to the Aunt - rather than being right & so rude. I hope the bride gains the strength to stand up to her Aunt & gets the dress that makes her happy, & the Aunt gains some common sense!
I love her mum. She clearly got great style & fashion sense and made a great pick for the dress, still lets her daughter choose and values her happiness more than anything.
This show is just solidifying the fact I will only bring a small group of people who genuinely care about my opinion of the dress shopping with me. This drama combined with the stress of planning an upcoming wedding is not good for anyone
The bride looks so defeated. Even her body language looked sad and exhausted after dealing with that woman. Poor girl. One day, ppl will learn BOUNDARIES.
I don't know why I am watching this show. I got married in January this year and in my opinion, my dress was beautiful. Yet I am so addicted to this show!
Congratulations on your marraige! 💕 I don't know why I watch it either (it's an addiction!), & I'm actually getting divorced (amicably) this month. I think I live vicariously through the show as I wasn't fortunate enough to have my own children... But boy do I get cross about people like this Aunt!!!!
@@katebet07 Thank you Kate. I am sorry to hear about your divorce but I hope that you are going to be happy/happier! The aunt was rude and selfish. But then again, this is a show and I am sure they added more drama for the audience. Enjoy your SYTTD watching spree!! :D
With aunts like her who needs enemies? Many people try to live through the experience of others. We should never forget WHO is getting married... the bride should always have the final say. Mom was awesome.
