imho this will set up a bad precedence. There are appropriate times for kids' opinions to be #1 (like what they get to wear, who their friends are, what foods they dislike), and others when the parents have to say, "we're the parents and this is what we're doing". May as well get that established now or that little one will think it should always be her cracking the whip.
A better way for the girls to feel involved would be to give them 3 choices of flowers you are considering and let them pick one. Same goes for nail polish, shoes, and jewelry.
She should have never brought those two little girls with her. They are a little bit on the spoiled side.And this new bride needs to remember who the mother is and who the child is
I love that when the bride put her dress on the second time around that Trinity saw how happy she was and changed her mind to say she liked it. I am so glad she went with the dress she wanted in the end but never flip a coin for your dream dress
What always strikes me the most with this show is how spread out the "disease" called people pleasing is. I loved what Robin said, she's spot on, and I always admire the few brides that are able to disappoint people and follow their gut, no matter how ugly their dresses are for the rest (including people commenting here). Ultimately, the point is not the dress but the ability to just be yourself - not an easy task, as we can see episode after episode.
the goldish coloured one is SO gorgeous. it looks amazing with her hair and skin. just need a matching veil not the white veil, and something more delicate and romantic. pick the dress you love! tell the little girls on their wedding day they can pick whatever dress they love too. and they can pick the dresses they want to wear to the wedding as well.
I wondered if she had been his fall back when other relationships went wrong. Who knows. I get that sometimes people break up but the wording of that comment gave me the ick! And those girls, rude!!!
First thing that came to mind is that she wasn't the one he wanted to spend his life with, he chose someone else to be the mother of his children despite knowing her since high school on and off. Who wants to be the last choice in someone's life?
It's sweet to include the children in the appointment, but folly to give them veto power on the decision. There are plenty of other ways they can be included in planning for the big day.
Those kids are gonna be walking all over their stepmom, lol! That woman set herself up the wrong way in every way possible by bringing those two little poops with her! Good luck!
What would have been better for the younger sister is to realize she’d been outvoted. Everyone else preferred the other dress, so let the younger daughter understand that sometimes you are outvoted. That’s realistic.
i usually cringe when a bride brings along a guy who "knows fashion," but this guy actually did know his stuff! the beaded belt punched the dress up a notch and he was right about the lines as well. it looks like it was designed to be part of that dress!
Sorry but the wedding dress is NOT the most important dress in your life! People put too much importance on a wedding dress. My sister in law rented hers and now 23 years later, she no longer remembers it. It is not as important as many make it out to be. The marriage and man is important, NOT a wedding and the wedding dress. Many people marry more than once these days too.
Jack the bride up. Honestly🤦♀the bride has the glow, the happy tears & the bride FOUND THE DRESS that she's happy then that opinion is the 1 that matters.....not 2 little girls who isn't wearing it when they're not the brides themselves.
for the first one - i think the girls were fed lines. however, it doesn't matter. marriage didn't last and by my best guess looking at maddi's, the mom and dad's fb pages, i think he's been married at least once more if not twice. she's with someone else, but i don't know how many marriages.
I get why people are saying that the two girls should not have been at the appointment. However, this is meant to be an opportunity for the bride to BOND with these girls. If she got a dress that disregarded their opinions entirely they're just going to feel rejected and like their new mother doesn't value their opinions. And yes, it's not logical but that how they will likely emotionally process it. I'm not saying the girls should dictate what the bride wears. But their opinions should be considered and their feelings on the subject validated which is what the bride did in the end.
Exactly my thoughts especially that shes a step mom and kids tend to hate when someone takes the place of their biological mom so she probably feels nervous and doesn’t wanna upset them so they don’t hate her
I don't think picking her wedding dress is a necessary bonding moment, there are so many other things to do with them that would create the bond. Choosing your wedding dress is about you, when mothers overtake appointments and force their opinions, no one likes it, cuz that's not why they're there, children don't understand the concept of support, they're still young. Let them be children and let her be a bride
together off and on since high school huh? hmmmm. as for coin toss, i've done it myself a time or two when i couldn't decide. i've always taken my kids thoughts and opinions into consideration (age appropriately) BUT......as an adult?....i would BE the adult and not expect kids to make MY adult decisions. but that's jus' me.
If she had let a 5 yr old pick out her dress, that girl would be testing her the whole marriage. That girl was seeing how much power her stepmother was actually going to give her. If Jamie doesn’t grow more of a spine, the girl is going to be a brat.
Obviously don't know the dynamic, but wouldn't be surprised if those girls' mom told them to say no to all their future stepmom's possible wedding dresses.
if they shouldn't be heard in a given setting then they shouldn't be seen either. it's nice to want them to feel included but not on this particular decision.
Never a step-parent, but I imagine it might be difficult for a person. No matter how much the future spouse loves you, there's loyalty to the children.
Sometimes the show just creates drama when there's none. I think the first bride just wanted to involve the kids for them to share a moment, but deep down, she really knows what she wants. It would be a nice story to tell in the future and all their sparkly opinions will be forgotten but the moment will always be carried forward.
I can’t believe that dress was under $2000! It did have that couture look and looked much more expensive. Lucky for her she picked “heads”, because it has more weight on that side and it tends to come up 90% of the time.
I think it’s very nice she took them, but I’d take them for mock appointment, to look around and then went on another with my mom only. I said yes to my dress today and I knew from the beginning that I want only my mom there
The kids are not "opinionated," they are brats. If she lets them get away with choosing her dress, they'll continue to push her for everything. Bride needs to pick her own dress.
I thought it was a good bonding idea to bring the girls wedding dress shopping. In the big picture the relationship between her and the girls is far more important than the wedding dress. It was also a great teachable moment for the girls on how to express their opinions without being mean. The older girl caught on to this lesson and realized it was important to the bride to they like the same dress. The younger girl did not catch that from what we could see but I’m sure someone had a talk with her.
Who in the world would bring kids to dressing shopping and shouldn’t give the kids which dress she should pick or like it seems brides can’t think of for them selfs and pick there own dresses.
These little girls are advanced for their age, agreed. But they need to know their place and let adults make their own decisions about adult stuff. that lady also needs to not give in that much to two little girls who don't know what they are talking about! I can't imagine her daily life with them if they would butt in for everything. Who flips a coin for a wedding dress!!??? am glad it landed on the dress she loved, she looks gorgeous in it,
How foolish do you have to be to give children this kind of authority? Did they study art or costume making outside of a Disney princess movie? Have they ever been to a wedding? Then she flips a coin to decide?! Maybe the 8 and 5 year-olds do have more sense.
Last dress? Yeah, maybe the sparkle belt was better for that groom (who might have considered a new hairstyle for the wedding). The sash is more elegant.
Don’t give power to a kid for this kind of decision.
Exactly, those 2 children are not the 1 using the credit card to pay for the wedding dress.
imho this will set up a bad precedence. There are appropriate times for kids' opinions to be #1 (like what they get to wear, who their friends are, what foods they dislike), and others when the parents have to say, "we're the parents and this is what we're doing". May as well get that established now or that little one will think it should always be her cracking the whip.
The younger one is the more obnoxious------and she's no beauty!! I'd like her to be raised to have character and "beauty" on the inside.
If they had not been exposed to options they would have found her pick to be perfect on the day.
Exactly and they can give their opinions but don’t let them make the decisions.
A better way for the girls to feel involved would be to give them 3 choices of flowers you are considering and let them pick one. Same goes for nail polish, shoes, and jewelry.
Exactly, or even pick out the cake! Kids would love that.
@@QuahoggerPicking the cake is a good idea.
Exactly, give them the illusion of choice, don’t give them the actual choice!
Or of they are flower girls let them weigh in on their dresses,
they can pick their flower girl dresses and that's it.
This lady would look good in any of them. I liked the dress she loved. Glad she got the dress she loved.
She should have never brought those two little girls with her. They are a little bit on the spoiled side.And this new bride needs to remember who the mother is and who the child is
I love that when the bride put her dress on the second time around that Trinity saw how happy she was and changed her mind to say she liked it. I am so glad she went with the dress she wanted in the end but never flip a coin for your dream dress
She clearly wants to be loved by her stepdaughters, future will show if she can stand her ground or if the girls will be in comand
Now way a 5 year old would have a say in my choise of weddingdress!
I love the simple dress. My cup of tea
"Down in fittings, another bride is also looking for approval"
lmao roasted
*sigh* kids choosing the dress…why trust the fashion sense of a child who’s idea of pretty is as much sparkles as you can throw at it.
Imagine that
Exactly lol the dress they liked looked like a cheesy Barbie doll outfit.
@@Sukoluhle88😅😅😅😅😅😊
Sparkles and frills😂😂
i wasnt like that as a kid, and im still not like that- but i wouldnt know hownto pick something real at that age regardless

So they've been together on and off since high school. Obviously off enough for him to have 2 kids with someone else
Powerplays and manipulation from that little one. Stamp that out early before you get married otherwise she'll rule the marriage.
My step-daughter ruled my marriage and was allowed by her Father to cause problems. Eventually I hated my husband and it finally ended up in divorce.
the goldish coloured one is SO gorgeous. it looks amazing with her hair and skin. just need a matching veil not the white veil, and something more delicate and romantic.
pick the dress you love! tell the little girls on their wedding day they can pick whatever dress they love too.
and they can pick the dresses they want to wear to the wedding as well.
Bride: Well do y'all just want to flip a coin? Robin: Who flips a coin on the most important dress you'll ever wear?
It is NOT the most important dress!
I love the 2nd dress on her, it looks perfect
Been with him since highschool and he has two kids, and their picking out my dress, absolutely not.
"Off and on since high school" I wonder if she was 'on' when he was with his kids' mom?
Yeah, that was an interesting remark, been with him on and off since high school.
I wondered if she had been his fall back when other relationships went wrong. Who knows. I get that sometimes people break up but the wording of that comment gave me the ick! And those girls, rude!!!
First thing that came to mind is that she wasn't the one he wanted to spend his life with, he chose someone else to be the mother of his children despite knowing her since high school on and off. Who wants to be the last choice in someone's life?
That comment was a bit sad as she sounds like a rebound.
My son was like this, he just liked to be contrary. So i didn't ask him anything! 😂
That little girl was trying to be cute but actually she was being bratty.
But I don’t want to go to school today! But you have to. Let’s flip a coin…?! 🙄
😂😂😂
Let's appreciate the friend of the second bride.
That bride is going to be in for a hard time with those girls! Letting their opinions sway hers is allowing them to walk all over her.
the biomom is in for an even harder time. "no you can't have that game." "WELL I'LL JUST ASK STEPMOM THEN, SHE'LL SAY YES!"
I agree!
I did like both dresses, but I'm happy for her that it was heads 😂 her friend was right she would have regretted it, if she picked the other one
She in 2nd dress was breathtaking
It's sweet to include the children in the appointment, but folly to give them veto power on the decision.
There are plenty of other ways they can be included in planning for the big day.
seriously! why arent they junior bridesmaids or tandem flower girls or something instead of sticking their noses in on this decision
Those kids are gonna be walking all over their stepmom, lol! That woman set herself up the wrong way in every way possible by bringing those two little poops with her! Good luck!
She came very close to going home with a dress she hates lol
The marriage may not last unless she is allowed to be an authority figure to the step-daughters.
She looks like a very sweet stepmum
What would have been better for the younger sister is to realize she’d been outvoted. Everyone else preferred the other dress, so let the younger daughter understand that sometimes you are outvoted. That’s realistic.

Wtf? A 5 year old and an 8 year old have no business picking out a wedding gown.
That little girl flipped the quarter like a pro. No way it was going to come up tails.
A. No!
B. Absolutely no.
Why oh why would you let kids decide on what dress you walk down the isle with to marry your husband it's your dress and not the kids

holy crap its over already? wonder if those girls got to pick the dress of the next couple step moms
Interesting!
Tough for those kids with so many significant others in and out of their lives.
Why not just let the girls pick out their own dresses, within reason?
I get why people are saying that the two girls should not have been at the appointment. However, this is meant to be an opportunity for the bride to BOND with these girls.

do not let a 5 year old tell the Bride what to do or pick a wedding dress for that matter . and it's the Bride "s decision . not a kid
Needing approval from children before making such a personal decision is ridiculous. 🙄
Nope! A child is not making a decision over my wedding dress wtw. Ok on and off relationship??? Off for years!!!
Unbelievable 🤦🏼♀️ glad luck saved her. Stunning dress
Dress #1 - meh, Dress #2 - meh..I like the champagne colour, Dress #3 - meh, didn’t like the skirt
She will get over it

The other dress was better. Madelyn was right. The veil didn't even match the dress.
I really liked Dress #1.......... *sigh* These children should not be dictating the appointment or the Bride's choice.

Wow this is sooo damn old - the little girl Trinity has 3 kids now, the step mom Jamie looks even better lol she isn’t aging
I must agree with the little girl. I don't like the dress
Keep children home please

Last dress? Yeah, maybe the sparkle belt was better for that groom (who might have considered a new hairstyle for the wedding). The sash is more elegant.
Brats
Would say no on little girls, and a guy for advice
There is a generation gap , whether it is between bride & mom or bride & Children. Always clash of opinions.
