Bellalisa January 3, 2015 Share January 3, 2015 The Hawaii bride, getting married in Hawaii with no family coming- wow was her dress Waaaaay too small! At the fitting I thought she squeezed into it. Looks like she gained even more weight before the wedding. Her huge boobs were falling out, her back fat was rolling over the back. I don't know how she got that thing zipped. Cannot believe these rednecks got on TV twice. Someone at Say Yes wanted a TLC paid trip to Hawaii and talked someone into paying for that trip to film that tiny pathetic beach wedding!! Good for them! Ha ha ha Link to comment

And she looked way cuter with the bun at her appointment than her wedding hair. Hashtag surprise! Hashtag playing dress up. And like little miss bride didn't know when her best friend was being deployed? At least the store went right for the "special collection" room instead of "can this be ordered in red" drama. My mom said to just send her to the bridesmaid floor. They have red dresses there. Hashtag. 4 Link to comment

I can't imagine how hurt that friend was to learn on-camera that the bride didn't have the balls to admit the wedding was scheduled during the time her friend was on deployment. The "surprises" were ridiculous. Was the red dress supposed to be shocking? The bride in the wheelchair -- her story is inspiring and I wish her well, but I also noted she seems much more in love with her trainer than she did with the groom. The trainer also seems quite smitten with her. 1 Link to comment

Bellalisa January 5, 2015 Share January 5, 2015 Of course if you want a red dress you don't show up in a bridal store expecting to have a lot of choices. She tried on one, Laurie had only one other for her to try. She didn't like it upon looking at it so it was easy for her to walk out and make a big stink on her way out about her friends not being supportive. The truth is she was done because there weren't any more to try on. If you are going to go for red, you need to let the store know in advance or something. It's dopey to show up and expect there to be any inventory. Wheelchair girl was in love with trainer. He was kinda hot but his voice was strange. I think he could announce for the World Wrestling Federation. Or voice cartoons, it was a very unusual sounding voice. Kind of low and groggly. Link to comment

What I want to know, really and truly, is the date upon which 9 women ever agreed on anyfuckingthing please? I felt so terrible for her for how awful they were being. I'm guilty of being way gullible but her tears seemed real and their mockishness certainly did too. They sucked but you sort of have to either be willing to stick up for yourself in that sort of situation or, hey OR, leave em the hell home.

doodlebug January 10, 2015 Share January 10, 2015 (edited) Anyone else watching last night and distracted by human Barbie doll Morgan and whatever it was she had done to her face? Only 33 years old and already with fully siliconized lips, cheek implants and so much Botox that nothing moved, even when she laughed. Considering her mom worked at the shop, the show did her a disservice when they showed all the pics of her as a kid which only proved that she has had more work done than some of the Kardashians. Makes me wonder what sort of self image issues she must've had to willingly alter her appearance so drastically. She looked like a cartoon character, not a real person. As for the 'unlimited budget' because she was marrying a country music star; so what? Personally, I've never been very impressed with any of the 'custom' creations we see on any of these shows. Her dress was nice enough, surely she could've found one for a quarter the cost that would've been just as nice. It makes me think she's got more money than sense. I understand why the shop owners are excited to see these suckers who are willing to shell out a small fortune for a dress they'll wear just once, but to me, they are fools. I am no country music aficionado, but has anyone ever heard if the guy she was marrying? Who exactly are the 'millions' of people she claimed would be seeing pictures of her wedding dress and judging? Methinks some of the Botox leached into her brain. Well, that and that she should perhaps spend some money on counseling to try to figure out why she has self esteem issues that she's trying to fix with cosmetic surgery and ridiculously expensive dresses.

Missy Vixen January 10, 2015 Share January 10, 2015 I'm guessing Morgan's bodacious ta-tas were not original equipment, either. My favorite part: The "unlimited budget" that was actually $10,000. 2 Link to comment
Dejana January 10, 2015 Share January 10, 2015 (edited) Jerrod Niemann (Morgan's groom) isn't Blake Shelton/Luke Bryan/Keith Urban big, but he would actually count as a real celebrity in the country music world, and not just some guy with a video or two on Youtube. His wedding would rate coverage in Country Weekly or People Country, though I don't know if readership for either is in the millions. I liked the sketch, with its yellow tinge, a bit more than the actual dress. Edited January 10, 2015 by Dejana 1 Link to comment
doodlebug January 10, 2015 Share January 10, 2015 Thanks for the info. So Morgan actually thinks the people who buy country music publications will do anything more than glance at her wedding picks and form an opinion about her gown? Delusional much? Most of 'em won't be able to get past her weirdly plasticized face, IMO, to even notice what her dress looks like. Link to comment
jcbrown January 14, 2015 Share January 14, 2015 I thought the expensive "custom" dress Morgan DuckLips ended up with was indistinguishable from the others she tried on. As a general comment, why do so many women think the style where the dress hugs your butt and flares at mid-thigh is attractive? If you are stick-thin, then maybe, but anyone built like a woman ends up emphasizing their hips in a way that, to my eye, is just not flattering. I would not sign up for a dress that made me feel like I had to suck it in for the duration of the ceremony and reception. 2 Link to comment
doodlebug January 15, 2015 Share January 15, 2015 I wonder the same thing. What is particularly strange to me is that these women seem to clamor for this style of wedding dress when it is not a style that is particularly popular in any other venue. And for good reason.

Shugardrawers January 16, 2015 Share January 16, 2015 (edited) Here's another one that bugs me: Women (especially plus sized women) who look at a fitted dress from the front and declare it gives them an "hourglass" figure.

Kitty Redstone January 17, 2015 Share January 17, 2015 Why is it not a red flag for the brides who won't get a dress they love because they're worried about their fiancee's reaction? I'm watching the episode with the bride who is eloping to Colorado and who's fiancee is "opinionated" (which is often a euphemism for controlling), but she is not the first bride who has acted this way. The young woman who was marrying someone with the last name Chicken or Turkey or some other foul comes to mind. Wanting your groom to think you are beautiful is fine; picking what the groom wants so you don't have to listen to him complain or worse, get bullied over making a choice without him, is not. It's disheartening to see this dynamic on what should be a happy show. 5 Link to comment

Tip for brides: if the wedding dress is not a style you'd wear at any other time; then it is probably not for you. Because the bridal fashion industry TELLS them that this is "fashion forward" and "classic" and only features that horrendous silhouette in their myriad magazines and online sites. And since most brides these days are immature, easily led, and swayed by media they go along with it. Thus the bridal fashion houses only carry that horrible crap. When those brides look back at the pictures in 10 years (if they make it that far, few will) they will laugh at how truly bad they looked. Just like brides in the 70's laugh at their enormous puffy sleeves. If you want a classic look, remember Princess Grace and Kate Middleton and Vera Wang and some of the dresses designed as far back as the 40's that still look wonderful today. But today's brides don't want to look different, they are led like sheep by advertising to purchase the flavor of the year even when it makes most of them look like sausages with exploding feet. 4 Link to comment

The bride came off as an entitled brat and I also blame her mother and other family for not putting a stop to her expectation that the brother pay more than $5,000. Looks like he's going to be the one the entire family expects to pay for the lifestyle they want. Hope he has invested his money wisely because if he gets injured, that gravy train will end very shortly. Then there was the bride that ended up getting two dresses to please herself and her father. Did they ever say how much the dresses cost? I forgot what her budget was, but it must have been more than $5,000. I thought the last dress, her father's choice, was the prettiest and most flattering on her. Seriously, isn't one fancy dress enough? 5 Link to comment

Ketzel January 18, 2015 Share January 18, 2015 (edited) The father who wanted his daughter to wear a "banging" dress had to be one of the worse over-actors yet to appear on SYTTD-A. I hope he didn't give himself a permanent strain from the way he was bugging his eyes out and rolling them around. The whole set-up was absurd. He's the fashionista who wants her in a glamorous glittery gown with a train, she just wants to wear a simple, classic dress with no decoration and no train. So she comes out in a plain white dress that could not have been less flattering to her body if it had been designed by her worst enemy. It flattened her breasts, emphasized the rolls at her waist and her bumpy thighs and basically made her look like an over-stuffed bolster from the neck down. But she was sure that it was The One. And rather than object on the perfectly reasonable grounds that the dress shape didn't do her justice, her father pitched a fit over how it didn't have bling and it didn't have a wow factor. Daughter goes back to the dressing room and Lori puts her in a fully beaded gown with a long train. Although it's only marginally more flattering than the first gown, and appears to be everything daughter declared she didn't want in her wedding gown, daughter realizes that this dress is actually The One. So, Dad gets his way, daughter loves the dress, happy ending? No because father needs more screen time, so he rejects this dress, too, for absolutely no reason than "not this one, nope." Cue the "jacking up" at the end of which father weeps and agrees to the dress. At least he squeezed out a few extra minutes of TV time along with those fake tears.

She wore a lovely, simple white dress that cost $125 and he wore a pair of dress pants and a dress shirt with no tie. Perfect for a beach wedding. I would have thought she was nuts if she had spent thousands of dollars on a dress. That bride's mother was definitely distressed that she wasn't going to get to see her daughter get married.

Kitty Redstone January 18, 2015 Share January 18, 2015 Well, my husband and I (just the two of us) also went to Colorado to get married in the Rockies, and I wore a beautiful beaded lace wedding dress and he wore a crisp black tux. We wore the standard wedding fare for us, not for anyone else. I wasn't about to let someone else tell me what I did or didn't need given our choice, though it sure didn't stop one of our more judgemental family members from trying. Can't imagine my wedding pictures would give me as much joy as they do if I'd worn anything else. My favorite photos is of me in my dress with the long train traling behind, arms around my handsome groom, with the mountains in the background. But, to each her own. Anyone who can look at her or his wedding photos decades later and not lament their clothing choice is a-ok by me. 8 Link to comment
pasdetrois January 18, 2015 Share January 18, 2015 (edited) I haven't watched any bridal shows in ages because most of the families were narcissistic and deluded. After last night, I can see this is still true. All I'll say about Rocky Mountain fiance is that I bet he is a controller of infinite degree. And that the bride broke her mother's heart. Hope the controller-possibly-abuser is worth it. The deacon daddy was acting the fool. In fact his bug eyes called to mind some old stereotypes that many modern folks avoid. I wish I could wave Lori's magic wand and forever remove the words "princess" and "queen" from bridal vocabularies. This is America, dammit. We don't have royalty, and all the proclamations by self-absorbed infantile spoiled brides don't change that. (And while we are at it, let's strike "fiance" for anyone who lives together for extended periods of time with no concrete plans to marry in the near future.) I hate the emphasis on the pornographic display of clown boobs and behinds. If that's what a bridge and groom think is most important on their wedding day, then the bride is essentially a sexual object, not a beloved family member and friend getting married.

And my father would never have been interested in what my gown looked like.

rur January 24, 2015 Share January 24, 2015 Although the two-brides/one dress episode last night was a little contrived, I was impressed with the dress they both liked. It was designed in a way that would make just about whoever wore it look good. Very impressive work by the designer. I did find myself wondering, though, if it only came in that one shade of white, since so many designs we have seen offer a variety of whitish hues. It could have been a good compromise … if they had truly come to buy a dress that day. Otherwise, while I can understand the "second" bride's desire to have a dress that wasn't identical to her friends, it seems like since the weddings were in two different cities, several months apart, with probably only a fraction of the guests attending both weddings, it probably wouldn't have been that big of a deal. I did note, though, that in the other episode last night, the magical veil once again convinced all dissenting family members that The Dress had been found. It's becoming a little too cliche' for me. 1 Link to comment

Same dresses, same stories. Although, for a change, the dress that both brides wanted was really beautiful. I agree with you, lordonia, just buy it and share it. They looked to be the same size and height. Think of what you can buy with that extra money on a dress you'll only wear for a few hours. And how many times has anyone who has been married for more than a few years pull out the old wedding album and wax nostalgic? Mostly it's their kids who do it to laugh at the hilarious old fashioned wedding dress. Link to comment

I can kind of understand it: There was no mention of the men were wearing. We've seen films of a number of weddings where the women were wearing very expensive gowns and the men weren't dressed comparatively. I remember one outdoor wedding where the men were wearing yellow shirts and brown suspenders, a "destination" wedding where the groom was wearing a white shirt and khakis, and another outdoor wedding with the groomsmen clad in what I'd call one step away from work jeans. If the mother knows that the men are going to be dressed considerably less formally than the bride, I can understand why she'd balk at a $5000 dress. Your mileage may vary.

My only problem with it is the exaggerated sweetheart neckline, which I thought leaned ever so slightly towards clownish. I can't imagine it looking good on a small-breasted woman. But it does seem like a nice option for women who have their hearts seat on a ballgown/pri***** silhouette because the bodice gradually tapers down over the hips instead of ending abruptly at the waist and ballooning out from there. Even the thinnest brides have trouble pulling that off. Speaking of that, you know that danged Lazaro dress with the crystal flower belt and tulle skirt in blush? I think we finally got rid of it in his line, but I've noticed now that there's at least one knockoff by another designer. I swear, that dress did not look good on a single person who tried it on, yet they all bought it. Link to comment

You'd never be able to clean that and you're blowing that kind of money on something you'll wear for a few hours. It just looks incongruous to have the bride in an uber-fancy expensive dress and the groom in denim. And again with the "I want it because I want it and I should have it because I want it no matter how much it costs" selfish attitude. If it cost more than the budget then COUGH UP THE EXTRA YOU SELFISH LITTLE TWIT! Edited January 25, 2015 by Kohola3 1 Link to comment
