Daniela has brought her mum, grandmother, and daughter to her bridal appointment, but will they all agree on a dress? Catch Say Yes to the Dress on TLC - Sky 133, Virgin 162, BT TV 323
The veil thing is 100% a way for people to save face and announce that they've "changed their minds" when it's clear that the bride loves a dress that they don't.
I’m not sure it’s a saving face but more putting the brides opinion above their own. The brides opinion is the one that matters most and if they love it but feel they need approval from a family member. The family member can say they love it and give the bride that approval they think they need when they previously didn’t think it was best. At the end of the day the bride needs to feel great in it and if in the back of their mind they feel meh because one family member didn’t approve, it can ruin the brides love for the dress.
I don't know. When I put on my veil while trying on gowns it immediately made be feel and look like a bride. Like a complete transformation. I could see why others would see that same transformation and change their mind. I do agree though it is very effective as a saving face technique too if that is an issue.
I personally think mom was missing one thing - belt. Not sure why, but sometimes a diamante belt or sash just adds that bit of oomph needed. Nothing huge, just a slight one.
That happens fairly often, and I like seeing it. One can put on a three million dollar/pound wedding dress and look like an egg in a rag; but then put on one that's less than a thousand, that suits her, and just *look like she spent three million. These Emmanuels are good peoples, no wonder Princess Diana picked them to make her wedding gown.
Such a sweet girl! Kind and honest daughter for her age: thinks of her Mother's preferred gown and what Mum wants. (She's not the overbearing, manipulative little brat, that we've seen on these shows!) Speaks volumes of how she was raised!
I want a bride that goes "I don't want a fishtail or a mermaid dress" but instead of insecurities it's because they straight up can't move or seat down and eat.
@@GalaxyRangerNiko I've seen brides doing the dropping it low test but it's always so dissapointing... a lil squat like for taking a picture and that's it u.u lost potential
yes!! and that is so true about a mermaid dress, too. i wore a gorgeous mermaid dress that fit me like a glove for my wedding, but even so, the entire dress had to come off each time i used the bathroom since i couldn't pull the skirt up past my hips. it was hilarious!
What a sweet little girl. She offered constructive critique, and read her mom's face. She did not like the fitted gown because she saw that her mom didn't feel happy in it. I'm glad the bride chose her Lovely dress, and that her mom learned to read her daughter's face.
They picked an awful fishtail dress, wasnt even clipped on the back, it hanged horribly, and as always, they put so little effort. She had the perfect figure for one.
I agree, and it seems they did that in purpose to change mom's mind. I have to say though that the dress looks absolutely stunning from the back only, the way it holds up till her butt then flows, just wow. Front was however old for her
The mom does not like that dress. But she knew in telling her daughter that, she was breaking her heart. So she used the "magic veil" as a reason to all of a sudden love it. She made her daughter happy in the end, but why did mom have to put her daughters emotions through the wringer and make her cry? MOM'S be their to support ANY dress your daughter is crying over. The dress is not for you to choose.
i think she was hoping they would figure out what to add to it to fix the visuals (it needs a belt) but since they couldn't suss that out she gave up and went with it rather than ruin the appointment.
omg! i love the little girl's face when her grandmother is saying how she doesn't like the dress. She is just like , grandma, just get over it! so cute! what a great kid!
I had this moment last saturday :) was my 3rd store (in 2 days), the 10th dress in total, the 2nd dress in this shop, my budget was 1500 €, I put "my dress" on, had that magical moment and then heard, that it is 950 € without alterations and 1100 € with :) (alterations are a different belt, added cap sleeves made out of soft tull and putting extra glitter tull under the actual tull of the skirt)
How DARE all these moms put all that emotional pressure on their daughters!?!? After seeing so much of it, I know even better what an amazing mom I was blessed with. She would NEVER have done that to me.
I think her Mom didn't like the dress even with the veil, but she said she likes it because her daughter seemed hopeful she would like it, too. They're very sweet people!
You can tell Mum still wasn't sold with the veil put on, but a little white lie because it makes her daughter and everyone else happy was the loving thing to do.
I can never understand why a bride puts so much store in what others think...even to the point of giving up the gown they love (and often looks fab on them). I guess I was lucky, my first dress I made and loved my outfit (1974). MY second wedding I bought a whole lot of bridal mags US, UK and Italian to get some ideas and designed and made my own...30 years later I look back and still love it. I did go and try on gowns in bridal shops...with a bridesmaid to see how I felt and what suited but came up with my own...with no one else's input - except my husband who wanted off the shoulder (strapless wasn't big in 1990) and high heels. It's the bride's day, no one else's, Mums, sisters, bridesmaids, etc need to keep that in mind. I find it sad when I hear a Mum say 'this is what I want'.
I can never understand why anyone comes on here to make comments that turn everything into "them," not the bride-to-be. This isn't about you at all, and should never have been written that way.
"You're slim, though. Are you not considering a fishtail?" Ahh yes, because slim = fitted dress, because slim people CAN show of their bodies... Just because one is slim doesn't mean they'd automatically be interested a fishtail. He's saying it as if she weren't slim, he wouldn't bring up the suggestion.
I wasn't impressed with selection of dresses that she tried on. They could have given her a much better fishtail dress. At the end, she is happy with her dress and that is the most important thing.
Kudos to her grandma who raised a daughter like a true mother and not the toxic way it usually is and her daughter did the same with the bride and the bride to her daughter. 4 generations of healthy minded women.
I didn't before, but now that you mention it she really does. Like Allison Janney in the early seasons of the west wing when she had dark layers in her hair.
Lovely bride, that dress looked gorgeous on her. I think mom would have came around sooner if they'd added a dainty little glittery belt. But you can see the love and support in this family, it's beautiful.
I love Justin Alexander gowns, just shows you don't need to spend a fortune ro get a gorgeous wedding gown. Loved this entourage. The daughter is so precious, very loving and supportive family!! 😊😊
I don't understand why when someone is looking for a :little more" that they don't add a rhinestone belt to give it a little sparkle. The 3rd dress was very pretty but plain, a simple sparkly belt/sash would have been the perfect touch.
Mom saw her daughter crying, saying she loves the dress and she just craps all over her daughters happiness. She came around but to do that to your daughter makes me question if she really wants her daughter to be happy with that dress or a dress mom picks out. She proved she didn't want a fishtail but I think mom was holding on to that idea.
The dress was beautiful. It looked great on her. I dont think her mother would ilke anything she chose. The mom just finally gave in , because her daughter and everyone else loved it. When she said the veil made the difference, that was just something she said to validate her liking the dress, because the veil made no difference. She's going to look great on her big day.
I can tell it was a cheaper dress. All 3 of the dresses shebtried weren't very pretty. She couldve pulled off something way sexier/elegant. It washed out her figure.
i just wish if they were going to go a-line (which was a good call!) that they wouldn't pick one so choppy. dropped waist gowns don't get nearly the love & attention they deserve on any of these shows, it always seems to be either massive ballgown or super-slinky fishtail/mermaid.
Hahaha I was looking for this comment!! The editing is terrible, “I think it’s beautiful” to an entirely different dress but they continue to pretend it’s for the first dress lol like at least crop the bride out
I will never understand why they put brides in dresses way over the budget I'm glad the second one didn't look good and she got one in her budget, I wish they put a belt on it though!!
