Years ago, I worked at a bakery and a few times brides would come in after a wedding and say their wedding cake had some kind of problem and wanted their money back. More times than not, it turned out they were trying to get their money back for the entire wedding; wedding dress, the hall,the food. Too many scumbags in this world.
More than I EVER thought possible.
I would say scammer not scumbag
Same thing's happened on Uber platform. Passengers get in our cars, And willl take the rides All the way to their destinations. They give the driver a one star rating and will make up a lie on the driver to get refunds for the rides. I had a passenger calling to Uber and say I was intoxicated behind the wheel. If I was in someone's car and they were intoxicated, I would immediately end the trip. A lot of drivers were innocent and have been wrongfully deactivated because of People wanting services and not wanting to have to pay for them. It's really messed up how this world is. A lot of hard workers out here are being affected by dishonest people
If the “cake” was the issue then the compensation should be for the CAKE ONLY!
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤😂😢😮😅😊
$1000 for 10 dresses made from scratch sounds like a steal, and she only paid half of that
Add 2 flower girl dresses and a ring Barrers vest...
That's a freaking bargain!!
Samething I was thinking
Fr like girl what are you mad about
She might as well have ordered on Amazon
Rule number 1 with JJ. If you eat the steak, you PAY for the steak!
That is such a JJ saying 😂
I’m shocked the seamstress could cover the cost of the fabric for TEN dresses on that $500. Lady needs to increase her prices.
She might have took a loss for that. It is probably not worth her time and effort to try and recoup the remaining $500.
I took a tremendous loss
Yea I’m sitting here like the seamstress low balled herself! Only $1000 for 10 HANDMADE dresses??! Heck the labor alone is $1000 imo
@@jeannejames2887 im so sorry. What a disaster!
@Truth Prevails yep
This screams I went WAY OVER my measly budget, and now I’m going to try and recoup money wherever I can. So sad and tacky. The seamstress made the dresses, provided 2-3 fittings and you only paid her 1/2 of the agreed price. Sidenote: Doing work out of your home DOES NOT make unprofessional. Most self employed/entrepreneurs started out of their home, trunks, etc to get their business up and running.
Well said 👏🏾👏🏾
Right and now measly a budget must it have been to only pay $1000 for all bridesmaid and flower girl dresses AND apparently the dress for the reception? Like it’s perfectly fine to have a wedding that’s within your means but if you’re expecting the people you hire to go above their own means to make your wedding a fairytale despite being flat broke you’re in for a rude awakening. If you only have $5k for the wedding it’s going to be a $5k wedding and that’s not the lady who made the dresses’s fault.
@@dharmallars I wish we could go back to making it normal to live within your means. There isn’t anything low brow or low class about getting married at a courthouse. Your circle should remain just as happy for you as a couple. This way couples can begin marriages without debt. I would have been too embarrassed to attempt to shakedown the seamstress for a refund when she had already invested more than what I paid for AND I still had a full wedding with the work she created.
I’m willing to bet she complained about the dresses, the vendor, the catering, the cake, the limo and her the husband!!! 😂
Exactly. But maybe if she had just a few bridesmaids, she could have gotten some nice dresses from a high-end place. Instead, she tried to cheap out on 10 dresses, and this is the result. You get what you pay for!
She ate the steak...but didn't like it but now wants to be compensated for the martini's, appetizers and the lobsters.
And she wants to be paid for the pain she suffered eating that steak that waa horrible going down smh
😂 yesss
😂
The dressmaker lost a lot of money on those dresses.
TIME WHICH IS MOST VALUED AS WE GET OLDER MINUTES BECOME HOURS
The plaintiff is either delusional or entitled, cause wtf is you suing for? You took the dress, they wore they dresses, and because you were dissatisfied you didn’t pay the other half. Wtf you suing for? I could see if you didn’t accept or have them wear the dresses but you used them. 🤦🏽♀️ wtf did I just watch? 👀
And then to try and sue for $3200!!? She got a steal, and nothing to complain about
She’s both. Awful
Both and also it sounds like the plaintiff is probably from the subreddits r/bridezillas and probably r/choosingbeggars.
@@nickcooper7714sounds like something I need to checkout lol
An entitled brat.
I used to run a bridal boutique and consignment shop in 2009 1. Even used dresses weren't that cheap and 2. My boss was a custom seamstress that made custom dresses, $50 is literally unheard of! Fabric is expensive and the hours of tedious work is a lot! Not to mention multiple fittings and alterations.. so much goes into a custom piece nevermind a whole bridal party with multiple different bodies. This dress maker severely under quoted herself!
Looks like those bridesmaid were all salad dodgers so they should have went to "Rent A Tent"
@@travis8665 😂😂😂
I wish that she had given the defendant the rest of her money. 😢
Me too….
i think you misunderstood the case, the bridesmaids PAID the other 50 bucks per dress when they picked it up.
@@Pschool1 I didn't get that either. Where do they say that? And the seamstress was counter suing.
@@Pschool1 No she did not
@@Pschool1 she said she didn’t give her any other money besides the $500.
I agreed with everything JJ said to the plaintiff
right. open and closed case lol
10 bridesmaids- this says enough to me. Run a mile.
The plaintiff: my wedding went off without a hitch. I'm suing!!!
They used the dresses. Case closed
Her complaints were kinda petty lol.
In the 70's, I paid $50 for my bridesmaids' dresses!!! This lady got way more than a bargain. She should be grateful!!!!!!
It’s sad to see people that are extremely well fed taking advantage of someone older and good to them.
$50 A DRESS is a MARVELLOUS price!!
MARVELOUS
@@4dyamondx745 marvellous in the UK. My fave is jewelry....in the USa......jewellery in the UK (whiskey/ whisky is pretty good too) All the best to you!
for everyone but the dressmaker who made them ... poor lady didn't even make minimum wage. Those are sweatshop prices.
@@ColleenMarble too true! All the best to you!
I paid $175 for my Bridesmaid dress and was determined to get at least one more use out of it. I never did, so I donated it to a charity that collects dresses for young ladies to use for thier Prom.
I’ll bet she goes to restaurants eats and then refuses to pay because it wasn’t good enough ! Same as it ever was
Hahaha sad but people does this.
Multiple fittings? Kind sounds like. A few bridesmaids gained a few pounds right before the wedding. That's why when they put it on there were rips and one was too small. If the fabric isn't stretchy even a pound or two can be an issue.
Right
My experience is usually the bridesmaids pay for their own dresses. I paid $250 for mine not including what I later paid for alterations. She was being a cheapskate and got what she paid for.
Our situation was like the plaintiff but she (the bride) paid a deposit and the rest of the money we split between all 7 of us (bridesmaids) including shoes. hair and nails were paid for though we spent almost $1,500 a bridesmaid she got a good deal 😭👌🏼
No. The bride pays for the dresses. It’s YOUR wedding and you asked them to be in it. Why would you think they should pay to be in your wedding?
I have heard of such, bridesmaids paying for their own dresses. If I am going to pay it, better be for something I want, which leaves out the bride choosing the dresses. With that in mind, the bride either, better pay for the dresses or bridesmaids should choose the dresses they want.
@@8213apice it’s not always the case some ppl do ask their bridal party to pay it all depends
Isn’t there such a thing as a FINAL FITTING???
All ten dresses 👗 fell apart the day OF the wedding???🤦🏽♀️
Lol that death stare when she found out she won't be getting anzly money. Priceless
When I get married, I’m going to the court house then we will have a ceremony another day. Everyone can wear their own shit. 😂
That’s what I did!
@@differentbrand literally have thought of this way since I was a teenager and it's probably the most cost effective way. I've heard of the price of people's weddings and wedding dress. 😳 hell nah, not here!
There is nothing wrong with a wedding, just do it within means
@@4dyamondx745 I don't want a wedding. I just want the ceremony afterwards!
Exactly what I did!
The fact that she paid $50.00 for ten dresses is beyond fair. I don't know many seamstresses that would charge ONLY $50.00 for a bridesmaid dress. I've seen some bridesmaid dresses that went between $150-$300 depending on the style, the fabrics and notions, as well as the labor (which is the key part of the charges). Sounds to me that the plaintiff was trying to pull a fast one here.
50 dollar dresses cheap af lol
And they looked like $50 dresses 🤣
I'm surprised JJ didn't entertain the counterclaim for 240$ still unpaid
$240* not 240$.
Because the defendant admitted that she only brought the counterclaim because she was getting sued
@@TubeSteakTommy You want a fig for that correction?
@@SpaceIsThePlace_ so what, the lady made the dresses and the bride used the dresses. The woman should have sued for the remaining $500 she is owed! JJ is an arse for not at least give the defendant what she was countersuing for, imo!! Doesn't matter why she filed the countersuit, she's owed the money!
@@julietteoscaralphanovember2223 You misunderstood the case, the bridesmaids PAID the other 50 bucks per dress when they picked it up.
LMFAO she really thought she had a case 😂😭
I've paid more for an outfit at Old Navy 🤣
😂😂😂😂😂
I paid $2000 for four bridesmaids dresses
😂🤣😂
"your not getting any money" had me pmsl 😂😂
What would have made Jude Judy' s ruling in this case more perfect, would have been if she made her pay 500 more to cover the full agreement, and gave the seamstress her counter claim as well,
Jude Judy...?
You do know that the producers pay all the awards, not the litigants, right?
wrong. You missed the point of the case. Please rewatch and listen.
So she only paid half of what she owed her for the dresses, and she wants the seamstress to pay? Ok girl lol
This should be an open and close case
Looks like it was
$1,000 for 10 dresses? Most men’s suits if you go to a decent supplier will cost upwards of $500 plus tailoring. I can’t imagine the costs for 1 bridesmaids dress plus alterations X 10.
How greedy can 1 be!!!! Enjoy your married life and move the hell on. 🙄
Horrible woman
They're not enjoying their married life, that's the problem LOL
😂😂😂 not get the hell on
$50 for a handmade dress?! What was she expecting! If you pay peanuts you get peanuts.
Right?! It's not like these were store-bought and the person was doing alterations. She handmade 10 dresses! ... for $50 each. That's an insanely good deal.
The name… Keitheisha… her daddy must’ve been Keith. Lawd have mercy.
Exactly what I was thinking when I saw the name spelled out!
😂
Mocking a person's name is buffonish. I'm 89, I've got female kin that were named after male relatives. My own mother's 1st name was Henry-Eddy. Named after her 2 uncles. Now yrs later she'd often say "Henrietta". But mocking this person's name is buffoonish. "Jazmyn " isn't spelled correctly either. In most literature.
@@alphaomega5909 you sound hurt
@@RA-dn2ic Naw kiddo. I'm just an old Curmudgeonly Fart, who is aware of the Diversity of 1st names. Thruout every culture. Some sound odd to me too. But intelligent folks know that All cultures have passed down 1st names or surnames. If one wants to be shi##y,ignorant,,that "Jazmyn" Kid has a cultural nnliterary misspelled 1st name too. As to her Surname? It could be because her ancestors were Peasants in some nation or slaves that were responsible for cleaning the Outhouses/Privy/Commodes,etc. "Browns" as an adopted Surname were because of that familes profession. Commode,Outhouse Cleaners. It's a Job,,, but not one I'd chose. Nor carry forward as my Kins surname,lol. 😂😂
Why is this a case?
lol I love when judge Judy says you’re not getting anything you won’t need a lawyer with judge Judy bc she always gonna take up and explain things
Plaintiff looks so mean
What about the counter claim? The defendant should have gotten that $200 plus that she was asking for
She admitted she only failed the claim because she was being sued
Yes, exactly
She was paid the her full $1,000, the 10 bridesmaids paid 50 each also
@@aaliyahholloway3029 I did not make any money on this project I did not quote her she was brought to me by her coordinator and I was told she only had so much money and the coordinator asked me if I could help her out for $100 a dress I should not have taken it but the dresses seem to be simple the fabric she wanted made it very difficult to fit all those ladies in a style that was not for them the bride brought me a sample of the fabric and I bought the exact fabric so I had not made any money with the deposit I Was never really going to make any money anyway
You can already tell where the case is going by the questions the judge asks. This was another good one.
She got a bargain, she shouldn't have expected platinum quality, that's stupid
The plaintiff should have known 'You get what you pay for'. Though the defendant didnt get her counter claim.. Let me just say, Judgement for the defendant for the amount of 3200$.. 🙂
That was cute 😆
You missed the "we're done"
@@purplelove3666 ☺️
@@shanejean5821 lol 😂
Not, she did not get no $3200. The defendant did not win either.
Everybody wants something for nothing.. Fun fact: When people understand they are paying for a product or service, they tend to be a good customer. When a person tries to get the product for free or haggle you down, they are the worse customers to deal with.
Businesses are not charities.
Loved them in "Double Platinum" but it's crazy to think that Brandy and Diana Ross would sue each other over something like this.
LoL 😆😆😆😆
😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂
Are they mother and sister? I don't remember that part in the case.🤔
She looks nothing like Brandy. Looks more like a lost Maury triplet.
I was disappointed with a lot of things on my wedding but I wasn’t going around asking for my money back. Ppl are so weird. She used all the dresses, no money back!
Cheap dresses. 😮
So what?
@@iykeharrison9161 what I meant was for her to complain, she got those dresses for cheap. The lady made all 10 bridesmaid dresses plus 2 flower girls dresses plus vest. She worked her tail off for measly $600 or so (flower girls & ring bearer included). I should have expounded more
I love how people think that just because they didin't like someone's services that they used, they're entitled to getting their money back.
I believe the defendant made dresses from her home and she wasn't a business lady just someone to promise she could make dresses. To me in the video that the plaintiff gave I agree with Judge Judy the dresses didn't look terrible, but they didn't look like wedding material either. I feel like the plaintiff was over excited to hear only $1000 for 10 dresses but she got what she paid for, because that means $100 a dress so she should have known something was going to be wrong with them. Her and her bridesmaids should have went to a professional business instead of someone's home to get wedding dresses!
Judge Judy should have ordered her to pay the remaining $500!
Her husband didn’t even come 😂
TEN bridesmaids? The less money they have the more they spend.
Doesn't the plaintiff still owe the defendant $500?
No the 10 bridesmaids paid the $50 also that’s why the lady wasn’t suing her
@@aaliyahholloway3029 she counter sued. And Judy said she was owed $500 lmao. Where do you get this from? Time stamp is always missing you copy pasted the same defense but can’t just get a time stamp
@@elvickRULES Judge Judy said that before finding out the bridesmaid stll paid 50 for their dresses . That's why the lady didn't sue for 500
@@aaliyahholloway3029 no the balance was left from the Bridesmaids who did not pay for their dresses she told five of them not to pay me and they did not but I let the dresses go anyway I am just as disappointed as the bride.... I should be obvious I was not trying to make money off her I wanted to help her... dressmaking is not the way I support myself... it's something that I do when I can
I swear one of the last times I was a bridesmaid was over 20 years ago and my dress cost about $100 back then so for $50 for today is a steal! The judge is right after the wedding that thing went in my closet and shortly after was donated. 😂😂😂
$50 bridesmaid dresses??? Oh man I paid more than that for homecoming dresses at JC Penney in the 2010s. I bet you anything she didn’t tell the bridesmaids how much those dresses actually cost. Bet you anything she said they were at least $200 each.
I’ve paid more than $50 just to get alterations
I feel sorry for the defendant. I wish she had gotten her remaining $500. She made a huge loss with this job.
Weddings are the biggest WASTE OF MONEY you could ever put yourselves through. Get married at the justice of peace, throw a party in your backyard & sign a prenup! Done & done!!!
Keith-isha... I'm 🤬 DONE 😂😂😂
🤣😅🤣😂😂😅😅😅
I think the plaintiff suing because the bridesmaids probably refused to pay for the dresses due to imperfections so she decided to sue the seamstress because she was out of pocket
I mean I tried not to respond but I should not have read these comments it's been over 5 years and I will never forget this experience.... for the record I never tried to sue her.... I was told I should at least let people know that she didn't pya....y not about any money... she sued me
She was just looking for a come up 😂
JJ: You used the dresses miss. Brooks.. we're done ✅
Lol $50 a dress & she complaining. Wish I could've found something like that when I did my daughter's wedding
She should have required the final payment before releasing the dresses.
45 years experience but only charging $100 per bridesmaid dress?? Nah, somethings up right there. Either she is grossly under selling herself, or you get what you pay for…..
Wow..... I have been sewing that long has nothing to do with what price you charge it has to do with knowing you can do something to help somebody this is not my life's work this is something else that I do... I was asked if I would be willing to do this for that amount of money and I said yes when I should not have I was told that she only had so much money
Usually when people try to re coup money from over spending on their wedding is because they invited too many cheap guests that gave them very light envelopes
Too bad. Shouldn’t have had such a big wedding You aren’t entitled to someone else’s money
My T-shirts are $50 each. To have some make a bridesmaid dress for $100 doesn't even cover fabric.
The plaintiff is slow in real life. Good luck to her husband
Calling people “slow” is really insulting to challenged people. Words matter.
@@BeKind2AllKinds she’s slow, and so are you
Plaintiff got the fairy godmother deal on those dresses. A measly 1000.00 for 10 dress??!!! Way below profit margin for the seamstress.
The way the plaintiff was answering the questions already annoyed so I hope she loses!
1000.00 for 10 dresses? Damn I need her information for future reference. Speaking it into existence 😂
People always want something for free when it's already discounted. SMH
$1000 for 10 dresses😳.. Her price was way too low
She used the items the lady made, why the freak is she suing? The defendant should be suing
If I’ve ever saw a case that didn’t make sense it’s this one. The dresses looked nice and if that lady stayed where I live she would make a killing for those prices
10 Bridesmaids is way too many
Only paid the deposit (500) but suing for 3200? That poor little old lady didn’t even ask for the other half of the deposit, she said 240. Just ridiculous
The “oh. good. well” of utter confusion is amazing 😂
She is so wise like king Solomon
That's like going to a resturant and saying "I enjoyed the food so much I want my money back" 😫🙄
“OUTRAGEOUS!” is what I was expecting tbh lol
Ten bridesmaids? Holy smokes.
$100 PER dress? And she DIDN’T even pay that? Lady go home and fix em yoself and be grateful good lord 😂
TEN dresses for $1000 matter of fact $500 shame on her for complaining she did you a favor. She’s lucky they looked so decent
There’s one thing about Judge Judy, she’s not going to bs you or take bs
Dear seamstress lady, do yourself a favour and increase your prices. Custom dresses would cost between $300-700 in my area depending on how many features the garment has. Time to close the door on the cheapskates. I’ve been to the fabric store. I know how much satin fabric costs per meter. How much invisible zippers cost. How much interfacing costs. No way each dress cost only $50 in materials. Furthermore, no way your time costs only $50 per dress. How much time did you spend sewing, cutting, and multiple fittings? Maybe even the time spent pretreating the fabric. Let’s assume you spent an ambitious 10 hours per dress (no way could I finish anything that quickly). You’re then selling your labour for $5 per hour. Does that seem fair to you? Is all your experience and skills only worth that little? Slippery fabric is a nightmare to work with. My local tailor charges $40 for a 45 minute job on non-specialized garments. You can bet that price would increase if you brought in a wedding dress or something similar.
You don’t need the headache of dealing with cheapskates. Cheapskates have to learn to live within their means and dressmaking is a luxury service. They can either save up to pay the seamstress a fair wage or they can live without it.
I didn’t even factor in the costs of running the equipment. The iron and sewing machine use a lot of electricity. Furthermore, sewing machine mechanics charge a lot for sewing machine maintenance. The invoice starts at $80. My domestic machines need yearly maintenance. I’m sure industrial machines running at the speed and capacity a sewing business would put them through would need more frequent tune ups per year. I’m charged a lot if the mechanic has to fix the timing on the machine, in addition to the maintenance.
I decided no bridesmaids, just a maid of honor. I paid for her dress and let her pick whatever she wanted with a few color options. Sometimes keeping things simple is best. She tried to do entirely too much and I bet she realizes now she overspent.
I love how judge Judy explains how petty the case is.
I wish the seamstress was awarded her counterclaim
Who has 10 bridesmaids? Most weddings I've been to there's only been 3-4. Should've cut the number down then you could've spent some more $ getting better dresses.
Girl please stop it!! You got 10 dress, flower girl dresses, vests for the boys made by hand for 500.00 and you complaining..
This seamstress doesn't charge enough. A dress isn't just made and then you put it on. There are at least two fittings.
She’s clearly named after her parents 😂
Straggle: I want everything for free!
What made her think she had a case😂😂😂😂
Some people are straight up cruel and low. 50 dollaras a dress!! And you have the nerve to sue. That's the woman's livelihood. Not only did she create a loss at that laughable price, but keeps milking time out of her, and pretends to take more money away.
What a cheap bag. I bet she's done this to every service she's got, to try and recoup money.
I had a dress made for a wedding and it was total crap. Every move I made would open the back clasp. I just tossed it after the wedding and will not use that seamstress again. Total waste of money.
Buy nice or buy twice🤷🏽♀️
Man people don't charge enough!!
These brides focus too much on what was not perfect. She got a VERY good deal with this seamstress. $500 bucks for 10 dresses!
She gets a great deal on wedding dresses and still complains.
Defendant should have been paid in this case the remaining 500. Shameless plaintiff
As a seamstress, myself, I can guarantee that some of these bridesmaids didn’t have the body shape for the silhouette she chose. Also, commercial patterns are not like standard sizes you find in a store. Everything is by specific measurements and almost always needs adjustments since not everybody’s body shape is the same as the manufacturer’s bodice block.
Not the seamstresses fault when she’s only doing as she’s told.
