"This is what I'm willing to contribute towards the wedding dress. Anything over is your responsibility." Flat out the salesperson should listen to the person with the wallet.
Why should the salesperson be caught in the middle? The bride is a fully grown woman who should be able to step up and support her own expensive decisions js
@@keithgiblin2636 This is true too. If the bride wants more than what the other person is saying they'll contribute, then it should be on the bride to pay the difference. The salesperson wasn't told by the bride that she would pay the difference. One of the worst things a bridal salesperson can do is show the bride a dress that is outside of her piece range...then the bride can't afford it and doesn't see another dress that she loves as much. Usually the other person doesn't back down and doesn't go over the budget they agreed to, and the salesperson loses a sale.
i was beginning to think that what she didn't like was her own figure. she tried on every possible style of dress and everything was "not how i envisioned myself looking in the dress," because she's probably envisioning herself being a size 2 like the models in the magazines.
Exactly my thought.. she's obviously surrounded by enablers who probably tell her every day you can have whatever you want your perfect ect ect... she thinks she's God's gift to the world
Then the bride should step up and pay the difference. How disrespectful if she’s not willing to do so! Dad and Mom you’re not doing her any favors for her future as an adult.
and take her to a cheaper salon. i guarantee if they had gone somewhere that isn't famous and on TV, they could've gotten the exact same dress for half that price.
@@TrinhNguyen-sh4fj that’s true but she won’t because he has taught her not to. Being considerate of others is not a natural quality. It has to be taught.
Dad needs to take a firm loving hand and teach his daughter financial responsibilities. Then cut off the gravy train. If mom wants to spoil her daughter then I hope she has a 6 figure paying job.
Not only was the first dress way over budget, the bride was way too heavy for that style of dress...but in the end she got a dress, looked happy and beautiful and Daddy paid for his baby girl. Very, very nice...
I think a lot of brides think they're going to put on a dress and it will magically make them beautiful and glamorous. And when it doesn't they are very disappointed!
When I was her age, I was living in an apartment in Chicago's Gold Coast. I paid my own rent, I bought my own food and clothes. If I'd wanted a $7,000 dress to wear for a few hours, my mother would have told me to enjoy working a second job because I'd be on my own. Her finance would be smart to run away while he can do so without needing a divorce court.
I arranged everything to do with my wedding at age 26. I had planned to pay for everything myself and THEN my parents offered. In 1978, my gown was $190 (+ $40 for both veil & shoes). If today, I would use a thrift/consignment store, rental or discount bridal store such as David's Bridal - and I would never expect anyone else to pay.
@@BasicYTHandleThat is great and how it should be. If we get married, it means we need to be independent so it makes sense to pay ourselves. My sister in law’s niece was going to get married and her parents were paying which enraged everyone. Everyone said that she was an adult and needs to pay herself.
I agree and my late parents would never allow me to blow many thousands on a one time dress. I have 2-3 other dresses to wear too. I would not be able to afford them all.
My parents didn't pay for anything except a private dinner after the ceremony, but they offered that. They offered more, but my parents had just gotten divorced, so I didn't want more.
As a daughter, it would destroy me more to see my dad wince and buy me the dress I want to make me happy than not getting the highest priced dress and going with another one that I love that’s cheaper. I love my dad more than any dress I’m going to wear once in my life. I am going to save up with my fiancée to pay for the wedding, I love my parents more than anything and can’t bear to think it’s all going to fall on them.
In American culture, it is fairly common for the Bride's family to pay, or at least help pay, for the wedding. (I can only speak to white American traditions as I am a Caucasian American.)
Good grief. I eloped and we kept the money my dad gave us to buy a home and a new car. I understand how some people need all of the attention, but respect your parents and their budget, otherwise make up the difference yourself. It’s a dress that will end up in your closet for the rest of your life. 🤦🏻♀️
I agree but honestly, how many people actually pay attention to or care what the bride wears? Not many if any people care at all. The only person that cares is the bride herself, maybe her groom and her parents, but beyond that, who else cares? These brides are just too full of themselves but yet do not want to pay a cent.
@@TrinhNguyen-sh4fj All brides should look and feel beautiful, but yeah, after it’s all said and done people move on. It’s one day! I could live for months on what people spend on a wedding, probably longer. Oh well, not my life.
@@absatwell8163I agree and my aunt spent very little on her wedding and is still happily married. My cousin spent over $100,000 and divorced less than 2 years later. The marriage is important not the dress and wedding. Who said you need to spend big bucks to look good? You can spend less and still be happy and feel beautiful. My friend spent $99 on a Gap satin ivory dress and felt and looked great.
He opens up doors for her, and she considers that means he's a great man. What a naive woman. And selfish too; she doesn't care about her Father's budget, and he's paying for everything; I assume that means the whole wedding. Does she care he might have to take out a loan? NO, she's too selfish! This marriage won't last five years.
My Dad gave me $2000 and said to use it however I wanted. I used $250 on my dress. The rest I used for 5 nights in Vegas and 2 Shows. I never asked for a penny more. He volunteered to pay for our pictures. Which I was very great full for. Some children are so spoiled.
I love fashion and in my opinion, the father’s choice was the most flattering on her figure, I thought it made her look statuesque. It needed to be taken in at the bust of course but that cut was the best on her.
These kids don’t ever think about what dad and mom ever think about how many years they have to work in their life time to have what they have to go through to give their kids what they want
My grandma passed before I got married and she left me a little bit of money for a dress. I got it for half price and had enough for alterations which was amazing! Both my mom and I are amazing at bargain hunting ❤.
I didn't have a dad to come to my wedding but if I did for sure I would respect the budget that he could afford. So rude and unfeeling to make him go broke for you to get married.
She sees the one dress I've been trying avoid as it hangs pulled out fluffed up and smack dab in the center of the rack. Ok. Meanwhile the way they didn't even pretend to wanna stay in budget was gross. The disrespect kills me.
I DON’T UNDERSTAND WHEN YOUR NOT PAYING FOR YOUR OWN DRESS!! Why NOT save money to HELP WITH THE COST?👀 Momma doesn’t have Bank so SHE IS WRONG. How can two walk together unless they AGREE!!!!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉
How can you see a dress on a size four model and expect it to look the same or even good on a size 12/14? And you don’t have the curves to carry it either! Dress for the body you have, not for the one you want! 😮 The only reason she liked the last dress was because it made her look like she had curves and it was over budget!
Run fiancé Michael run. This is just the beginning of a nightmare. If bride and mom like the $7,000 dress let mom and daughter pay the difference. The dream dress was hideous.
I sometimes wonder if the dads set a lower budget knowing their daughters will go over it. This way they can say yes to something over budget because they already planned for this type of situation.
Do they only book the brides with the most awful entourages & bridezillas? It makes for good TV, I guess. But it would be nice to see more stories involving sweet, kind people/stories ❤
The one thing I will say in defense of the mama is that most daddies don’t have the slightest idea what that kind of stuff costs. My dad helped me pick out my headpiece, and he about fainted at the price after he’d picked it out and made a little bit of a fuss over how it was just right.
Actually, the bride is pretty clueless about costs too. It's definitely possible to get a dress within a $2,500 budget! I married in 2011 and found a dress I adored in a catalog. Problem was it was $800 and it was the wrong shade. A friend volunteered to make the dress, and we did it for about half the cost, and it was the right color and had even nicer lace than the one I initially found. A $2,500 budget is nice and generous, but it might not mean shopping at a really expensive shop.
It's better to go way below budget and use the additional money toward something important, like a down-payment on a house. Daddy would probably have been happy to do that. I have never understood people that spend so much and even finance a wedding! They start out in the hole.
The bride is a grown woman who works. If she wants a dress over her dad's budget, then she needs to pay the difference out of her own pocket.
INDEED!!
Exactly!
I agree and what is up with all of these brides expecting parents and others to pay?
Yes, I was 27 when I got married and paid for everything. I thought it was time to quit being a child and act like an adult.
Exactly!!
I gave my daughter a budget. She could do whatever she wanted with it but if it cost more, she had to pay the difference. She made it work.
People act like budgets don’t matter and it must be nice to have unlimited money
Yeah. But her bridal appointment just isn't about you.
Agree. Poor dad. Poor new husband
身為一個台灣人，我很難理解你們為了幾個小時的婚禮花一大筆錢買禮服，我們寧願拿來買車，或是存下當成育兒基金
they always make it work once you mention them using their own money! LOL
I would never do that to my dad if he was buying my dress. I would respect whatever budget he has given and pay the difference if the dress is over.
Me too. ! Totally self centered. Not thinking about hard working dad
Exactly and I personally would pay myself.
And not only that, she actually looked better in the first dress her dad picked out
THAT IS SO DISRESPECTFUL. WHAT A BRAT.
Agreed
It’s sad that the mom was encouraging the daughter to not listen to the budget as well, poor dad
eh he’ll be ight .
Disrespectful. “I like expensive things” is not a flex. She better have a great job.
It is and many traditional and selfish women are like that. They try to milk as much out of their husbands and fathers as they can. How sad is that?
Atlanta is so staged. I'm guessing the mom's behavior was completely scripted for the show.
Stupid mom types of females that just use men thinkin that they have to buy them whatever they want.... NO they dont.

Yup and I doubt their marriage will last or be happy.

Do you folks know this is scripted?
Then the bride should step up and pay the difference. How disrespectful if she’s not willing to do so! Dad and Mom you’re not doing her any favors for her future as an adult.
This marriage is doomed. Seriously! Run groom Run!!!
Dad made his own monster there. All he had to do was grow a pair while pulling dresses and say NO. Problem solved.
and take her to a cheaper salon. i guarantee if they had gone somewhere that isn't famous and on TV, they could've gotten the exact same dress for half that price.
Amen!
True to some extent but as children, we need to be more considerate to our parents’ generosity to us not take advantage of it.
@@TrinhNguyen-sh4fj as a child of lovely parents I agree. She needs to become aware as an adult
@@TrinhNguyen-sh4fj that’s true but she won’t because he has taught her not to. Being considerate of others is not a natural quality. It has to be taught.

😆 🤣 😂
feel for the groom, he’ll end up paying for her attitude
Sure didn’t look like that given the outfit she walked in on…
This girl is so disrespectful of her father. 7000 vs 2500 is absurd. What is wrong with Robin? Why isn't she doing anything to rein her in?
Wooooow Mom's attitude says it all! She's encouraging this kind of behavior, I bet she's not earning for the family. Way to go Mom!

More too short than too heavy. Just not the right shape.
If she cannnot honor the budget from her dad; he needs to not give her any money at all. She is ungrateful.
I didn't have a budget but I still would not feel comfortable trying on a $7000 dress.
I think a lot of brides think they're going to put on a dress and it will magically make them beautiful and glamorous. And when it doesn't they are very disappointed!

Raised that way. It does not just happen.
In American culture, it is fairly common for the Bride's family to pay, or at least help pay, for the wedding. (I can only speak to white American traditions as I am a Caucasian American.)
They switched out the belt/sash. I like that they did. That dress suited her body perfectly.
I paid for my own dress and we paid for the wedding our self. We both had a job, so why not?
We did too
Her mother was a huge instigator in this! Encouraging her to try things on over budget. Clearly she's taught her daughter that dad is a pushover.
If that is the case then I feel bad for her father.
Why can’t she pay the difference? Or maybe mom can pay with her own money for the over-budget dress
Mom doesn’t have ANY money if her own, it’s ALL Daddy’s money.

It is hard for bridal consultants to overcome decades of family system patterns. Obviously mom and daughter have bulldozed dad's boundaries before.
I agree and it is sad when the women in the family take advantage of the men in the family like that.
Dad needs to reclaim his manhood from wife's handbag
She's a professional manipulator! Does she think Dad is Chase Bank? GOD only knows what else he's paying for!?!? I feel sorry for the groom. 😢
She’s so disrespectful and despicable on top of that! I feel sorry for her fiancé should she make it down the aisle!
Mama will probably still bail them out after the wedding!
The fiance had a choice! The guy knew what he was getting into..
so I have no pity for him..
Incredibly disrespectful to her father!
Which she will duplicate with new husband
Why do many of these brides look at least 10 years older than their stated age?
Maybe they lied about their age.

What a nice father.

I don't know why TLC act like they didn't position that 7k dress within eyeline just so the bride would want to try it on 😂😂😂😂

Oh no ma’am! If you’ve been given a budget, you need to RESPECT it!
Absolutely disrespectful. Poor husband and dad
I didn't like any of the dresses on her.
Me too and it feels like the more expensive they get the uglier they get too.
She was trying to hide it but put it super prominent in front of all other dresses? Poorly staged
They should put fake price tags on cheap dresses that fit in the budget. They will get chosen on that alone.
She sees the one dress I've been trying avoid as it hangs pulled out fluffed up and smack dab in the center of the rack. Ok. Meanwhile the way they didn't even pretend to wanna stay in budget was gross. The disrespect kills me.
It's very disrespectful of the mother to ignore the father's wishes.
And pull out things that are over double his budget.

First the worst. Second the best
Seems like mom doesn’t respect dad’s budget either
I would be embarrassed as a grown person to ask my parents for money. These parents haven't done a good job and are now paying for their bad parenting
Uh oh. Dad's ready for a beer and she hasn't even tried on the first dress....
They made the right choice. It was definitely the best dress she tried on. It looked the best on her.

I sometimes wonder if the dads set a lower budget knowing their daughters will go over it. This way they can say yes to something over budget because they already planned for this type of situation.
I tell my kids … getting married is your own adult decision… that’s also means paying for your own wedding like I did

This kind of woman that doesn't care at all with others persons money, so irresponsible and inmature😡, will end in divorce.
She should have paid herself.
Good job laurie that dress is perfect. She looked breathtaking.
Breathtaking, no. Appropriate, yes.
Sad that the father still has to pay for everything. Times have changed. I would never have expected mine to pay for anything.
Daddy's first pick if I told her it's $10,000 she would love the dress
It is soooo stupid when after two dresses she is afraid she won't find a dress. So many brides on this show say the same thing and it's stupid
Also , to add to my other comment You only wear your wedding dress for about 8 Hours a waste of Money
I agree and some wear it for even less if they have other dresses to wear.
Consultants, send her home!!!!!!!!
She was convinced she would look like the model looked in her dream dress. How sad 😢
The dress that dad picked out was gorgeous🥹
I loved the corset style top of dress #4
She may like expensive things, but generally doesn't give expensive, sophisticated vibes. I'm sorry for saying this.
Why do they put the ribbons on the waist of every dress? There is a reason they do not come cut in half horizontally with a shiny line...
Knowing that most family men don't tell if they financially struggling: they should respect the budget!
Dad shouldn't even consider pay for her dress. She's a grown woman, she should pay for it on her own.
Which one did she get? There are two different belts being shown.
26? She looks 40. Buy your own dress, honey.
It's better to go way below budget and use the additional money toward something important, like a down-payment on a house. Daddy would probably have been happy to do that. I have never understood people that spend so much and even finance a wedding! They start out in the hole.
