You can’t convince me that there was ever really a budget. No one jumps from 6000 to over 7x that amount without batting an eye. THERE NEVER WAS A BUDGET!
Exactly as soon as they (the Kleinfield staff) heard she was coming in and who her fiance was they automatically went to the ridiculously expensive section. Smh
it'd be willing the groom set the budget before she left and the bride just smiled "whatever you say baby" and said, come on akeem, lets look fabulous.
Honestly, if I were to win a billion dollars in the lottery, I still couldn't justify spending $40K on two dresses that I would only wear one time. It's so wasteful.
@@AshleyfromTX Well, they never married and are still together more than 12 years later. I don’t know if she ever got the dresses or paid to her planner.
Exactly! That wreaked my cousin’s marriage. She was high maintenance and her husband was poor. Not a good combination at all which is why they did not last.
Fiancé probably agrees but honestly? I don’t think there was a budget. She didn’t bat an eye and planner was super confident. That’s not the behavior of people, especially a bride to be, who knows this is going to cause conflict and may even cause her the marriage proposal
My cousin’s catering cost 38k not even including the ceremony. …I was trying to put on a reception for a tenth of the catering price. But our reception never happened. As it was, my divorce was more than ten times of my wedding itself. 2k.
From 6000 to 40000. That’s crazy amount of money for two dresses. I wonder what the future groom will think about the prices. He better have a long career with her taste.
The groom obviously likes/wants a high maintenance woman, many men in the spotlight want this as she’s good for his public image and he feels he deserves someone like that.
@@HannHio-kv1ky I totally agree, it’s why so many famous marriages fail (not all obviously) but they marry for publicity or public image or career boost, and then in a few years it’s over. I’m sure he wants to make her happy and she will be for awhile, until he makes her unhappy then the fights start and pretty divorce.
That is why many of those marriages never last or are blissful. They are too superficial and money oriented. There is a saying, a man’s character is tested when he is rich and a woman’s character is tested when she is poor.
@@itsknotmagic Not an excuse. I want a professionally planned wedding by a wedding planning professional. If you can't take care of your phone or go as far as to replace a broken one, I can't trust you with my wedding. And even if he just broke it, leave that cracked phone in your pocket or briefcase. Don't be bringing it out in public. A nice notebook will suffice.
Why feel bad for the team? In fact this is a nice surprise to them. It’s an unexpected big sale. A sale is a sale and the bride is very happy. Everyone wins.
The bride seems to just be doing along with what her event planners say, doesn’t have her own opinion, won’t stand up for herself even though they are working for her and totally disregarding her budget…it’s hard to watch
@@figmo397That is BS to me and it is like saying an engagement ring has to cost at least $10,000. You can spend a little or a lot like you want but who said you had to spend that much regardless of who you marry. It is not a requirement.
What’s wrong with you . Why’d you say that for someone. Just because you cannot afford it doesn’t means no one should buy it. Your mindset is sickening!
1st bride’s voice is soft & delicate. I feel like she could have a nice singing voice. Especially when describing her man. Not the 2nd one tho. 7:00 “Oct. seeehhcond.”
It’s always talked about that’s why they call the wives gold diggers. Most time when they find love after getting successful this happens. Most smart athletes lock their wife down before college is done.
It’s not the wives… it’s what happens when you take people out of a poor socioeconomic background and suddenly give them millions of dollars. They have no concept how to budget/save/spend responsibly because it’s something they never dealt with. You don’t hear about it in baseball because baseball is a rich man’s sport where athletes buy their way into the game ( and if you don’t believe me, then you’ve never had a kid in competitive baseball through the high school level)
She is actually a close very friend of mine. I know her personally. She bought those two dresses that day with her money because she is also very successful. I guess you just assumed that her husband was paying for it because he's an athlete. It seems as though you've never known successful black people before. I'm pretty sure her son has more funds then you right now. I'll leave it at that, have a blessed day! 🙌🏾
@@oldageisdumbYes you do, you just don't want to hear about, there have been plenty of baseball players who have gone broke. Also, you thinking everyone who goes broke is from a poor socioeconomic background is HILARIOUS, there are individuals who are from a wealthy background, who can't manage their money.
@@cheymac7633 Exactly, the person above assumed they were from a poor socioeconomic background and lacks money management skills, and we all know where that conclusion came from.
Hakim was a horrible wedding planner, simply by disregarding her fiancé’s budget. I wonder if those two will still get married after he see’s his CC bill?
Honestly, the skirt looks like a glob of cake frosting. This dress is so overwhelming that it distracts from the bride's face. I actually started to count all those flowers.
The groom needs to run far and run fast. $40,000? I could buy a used car and still have money left over. The idea of spending that on 2 dresses your only wearing once makes me feel extremely uneasy.
A wedding planner who does not take clients' budget into consideration is unprofessional and reckless. Hope his clients have all that money. If the wedding dresses exceed budget just to fit his ideal vision, I would hazard a guess that other wedding items may very well exceed budget too.
More money than sense. Weddings are way over the top these days when I was married “back in the day” my dress was on sale for $100 it was originally $500 and that was fifty years ago. It was a beautiful gown and I still have it to this day.
5k is the avg price of a wedding dress. Her fiancée most likely makes millions, and they’ll be in the limelight, unlike regular brides. 40k is totally justifiable, imo.
I would love to see the stats to back up your comment. If you google it (I totally did lol) the average dress in the U.S. (where this show takes place) is $1000-$1900
this is one of my favorite episodes! Both dressing are beautiful and I love the rose skirt theme and the slightly ivory and slightly silver colors. I need an unlimited budget too 😂
At our weddings, we would wear 3-4 dresses but they of course would not cost anywhere close to this much. My former friend spent only around $2000 for all 4 of her dresses and they were all nice too.
@@laurellane1721It is a part of our culture. The white wedding dress is for the ceremony. The cake cutting gown is for cutting the cake and dancing. The other is a wedding dress from our culture and we wear that when greeting each table. If you marry a guy from another culture, then you wear a wedding dress from his culture that you can wear during the tea ceremony or when you dance.
Ok, would have been good to do one of those follow up clips. If the fiance could have afforded 40,000 then they wouldn't have walked in with 6. 🤔 (I also think Hakeens styling career might be shorter than he wants if he's blowing budgets like that 😬)
That rainbow dress at the end was always one of my favorites. I love when people do unique dresses that aren’t too ridiculous that they wind up looking like a costume. And I remember their wedding being very young and fun with everyone wearing cute sunglasses and holding pinwheels down by the water’s edge.
oh my god do those changing room doors not have locks?! the nerve of that man busting in on a ladies' changing room because he's so far up himself he can't let them talk about what the bride wants without his opinion being heard. it worked to TAMIKA'S benefit?! because she spent 4x her budget on ONE dress? no, honey, that was to YOUR benefit, for that obscene commission you just made. god help that poor fiance.
The two gowns she chose, were really beautiful and LOOKED expensive. Her fiance is in the NFL and probably money was no object, plus this wedding, no doubt, was going to be filled with NFL players, team owners and celebrities as well....and videos and photos live on forever ! She looked polished, classy and rich.
A lot of NFL players go bankrupt because they spend lavishly and then something happens that ends their career. It’s hard for them to get other jobs because football is all they focused on. They get paid so much because they need to earn enough for their entire lifetime within a short amount of time.
Most NFL players are not at all as rich as they think they are. Most don’t make big bucks for many years and/or go on to broadcast careers. An injury can ruin them. It’s sad, really.
For all of us wondering, I’ve googled a lot and neither Tamika or her fiancé mention being married these days. The only credit listed for both is their son. Are any of us really shocked?
Judging by the size of her gorgeous ring and being with her fiancée for over four years the bride knew her budget was unlimited…and why not? If one can afford it, get what you want. Best wishes to them.
@@kimberpas2907I think the budget was unlimited but she didn't want to say that as she wanted to see a range of dresses. If you tell sales people unlimited they will try to sell you the whole store!
That's shocking! 😮 Those dresses were awful! As if he would know what's best for the bride...he obviously didn't! She had no clue what she wanted but how can she have any opinions of her own when he just takes over and does what he wants?!! Spending all that money on one dress, let alone two! Hope he was paying... The only people benefitting here were Kleinfelds - I bet Randy was rubbing his hands with glee! And as for the second bride...her voice was so annoying! The way she elongated the last syllable of every last word of a sentence was just cringeworthy! 😬
Umm no this planner had spent enough time with her to know exactly what she was looking for and not have their time wasted. It was clear that the consultant from the store was not so good at reading the bride as every dress she chose was a dud for the bride where as Every dress Akeem picked was a winner. This planner knows his job and is very good at it
The worst thing is im sure they have a similar dress for much less. Of course its not gonna be that ornate but when the budget was $6k for both and now we are looking at $25k just for 1 something is wrong. Only if all those other similar dresses fail and the birde oks it should those kinda dresses be pulled.
HOWWW does this bride choose a dress that is FOUR TIMES what her budget is...and yet, she STILL wants ANOTHER dress on top of the one she's paying $25,000 for....and then, we have Rainbow Brite getting married downstairs in a rainbow tulle gown and candy apple red pumps.
i've seen houses for sale for less than that. they're usually small and need repairs, and tend to be out in the sticks but a whole-ass house for $40k, yes please
Think the wedding coordinator might have been on commission from a designer! Isn't it their job to keep to a budget? He was the one pulling the expensive dresses not the consultants....
Why are you guys hating?? She bought a dress she loves and can afford. My budget is around 15k and I don’t have nearly as much as her. The dress is the dress. Priceless 💛
This is going to sound weird, but when I want to spend a lot of money (that I have available to spend) on something, I try to spend only half instead and either save the other half or donate it to charity. I feel so much better about a want (instead of need) large purchase when I donate or put into savings.
Im a wedding and event coordinator and the most important part of my job is to stay within or under budget. Im sorry but he really did not do his job. Not cool!!
I think the rainbow dress would have looked better with the white top layer hiked up on one side or something to show off the layers underneath a bit more
You can’t convince me that there was ever really a budget. No one jumps from 6000 to over 7x that amount without batting an eye. THERE NEVER WAS A BUDGET!

Totally agree!
Me neither, All that money for 2 dresses crazy, I wore the same dress I got married in Church to our reception as well x
I literally just said to my husband. What a waste.
The consultant really owes that planner big time he increased her commission big time!
That was just insane. I think it was about the ego of the man who dresses her! He wanted her to spend more money!
Yes, he certainly was right on Tamika’s taste.

@@AshleyfromTX Well, they never married and are still together more than 12 years later. I don’t know if she ever got the dresses or paid to her planner.

🤣🤣🤣🤣 rite 🤣🤣🤣🤣
My sister's entire wedding cost a little less than the second dress. $40k on the dress(es) alone? That to me is insane
my entire wedding cost less than some of the cheap dresses in kleinfeld's, some of these brides have more money than brain cells.
My cousin’s catering cost 38k not even including the ceremony.
…I was trying to put on a reception for a tenth of the catering price. But our reception never happened. As it was, my divorce was more than ten times of my wedding itself. 2k.
Exactly and those marriages usually end up in divorce a short time later.
I went to a Indian wedding(Indian and western) that cost less. This included accomodation and flight tickets for family too. Lol

From 6000 to 40000. That’s crazy amount of money for two dresses. I wonder what the future groom will think about the prices. He better have a long career with her taste.

Hope he was paying... The only people benefitting here were Kleinfelds - I bet Randy was rubbing his hands with glee!
And as for the second bride...her voice was so annoying! The way she elongated the last syllable of every last word of a sentence was just cringeworthy! 😬
Event planners generally go for the audacious
Her and her friend are insufferable. Super annoying
“better than I expectaaaaaaaaaaddd”
Umm no this planner had spent enough time with her to know exactly what she was looking for and not have their time wasted. It was clear that the consultant from the store was not so good at reading the bride as every dress she chose was a dud for the bride where as Every dress Akeem picked was a winner. This planner knows his job and is very good at it
Someone please for gods sake stop bringing along these so called designers, i really just want to scream at the screen
If she had a budget and goes over budget, it would be disrespectful, especially if it's not her money.
The fitting rainbow dress: tell me you got married in 2010’s without telling me you got married in 2010’s
The worst thing is im sure they have a similar dress for much less. Of course its not gonna be that ornate but when the budget was $6k for both and now we are looking at $25k just for 1 something is wrong. Only if all those other similar dresses fail and the birde oks it should those kinda dresses be pulled.
Akeem really knows his clients very very well. I would consider him for the job of wedding planner
I would if I didn't care about blowing my budget.
But she’s been to 6 stores already…..if he knew she’d be done at the first store.
The wedding planner phone is broken?? How well off is he if his basic ass phone is broke?!!! He’s just acting likes he’s all that😅
That second briiiiideee,and her frieeeeends 😳 were talking so annoyingly that I couldn't listen 😳
HOWWW does this bride choose a dress that is FOUR TIMES what her budget is...and yet, she STILL wants ANOTHER dress on top of the one she's paying $25,000 for....and then, we have Rainbow Brite getting married downstairs in a rainbow tulle gown and candy apple red pumps.
This is maddening. Why would she let the planner take over? This guy made it worse
No. He knew what she liked and delivered.
The first bride doesn't have a mind of her own. She just picks whichever her stylist chose for her.
I would love the commission on that sale 😂
Their money is not going to last long with spending on dresses that carelessly.
Why does everyone care so much how much they spent, it’s their own damn money! Y’all ain’t entitled to say where THEIR money goes 😂😂
Wow. Love the first dress. The second is amazing too.... but i'd rather put a down payment on a vacation house. 🤺
i've seen houses for sale for less than that. they're usually small and need repairs, and tend to be out in the sticks but a whole-ass house for $40k, yes please
The future husband better keep making big money. Seems like his future wife has very expensive test with zero concern for holding back!
2 minutes in... and Hakeem needs to know his place.
Part of the NFL training are classes/lessons about these kind of women. But not about their wedding planning best friend. 😂
Our WHOLE WEDDING was under $5000!
See her face when Randy said $24,000? She has no rules. Zero. $15,000 reception dress!!! Wut!? $6000 budget.
Run footballer run.
Regardless how much money I have do you know what I could do with the amount she spent on just the one of those dresses?
I hear you, girl.
I agree and even if I was wealthy, I can’t ever spend so much on a dress I will only wear once.
Love the first dress…second not so much! But she is a beautiful bride and seems like a sweetheart
She spent literally double on 2 dresses than what I paid for my whole wedding and honeymoon
She is crazy to spend so much on a dress and she’s gonna wear is for a day! This is insane.
There are alot of women like that!
Some might have low self esteem if it takes one day of your life to make you feel so special.
There is an old saying “made for tv” and the entire experience of Tamika felt like a perfect example
How old is this episode? The second bride och friend outfits gave me such a 2004 vibe😂
40,000 for two dresses girl
Think the wedding coordinator might have been on commission from a designer! Isn't it their job to keep to a budget? He was the one pulling the expensive dresses not the consultants....
Why are you guys hating?? She bought a dress she loves and can afford. My budget is around 15k and I don’t have nearly as much as her. The dress is the dress. Priceless 💛
Second Brides Dress looks like a Prom Dress
$40,000?!😮 I didn't earn that much in a year before I retired and I raised a kid.
Heard that. 👍
Exactly and some are so wasteful!
Maybe I'm naive but can't you get an Associate Degree at a community college for that much money?
@@mariacherrington61920 exactly!
Why would you pick such a gorgeous dress then take it off for another dress. That’s sad.
Well... The groom will have a heart attack 😂
What a waste of money.
How does a budget of $6k become $40k??
The wedding planner needs to pay for it if that's what he
Randy to the rescue
This is going to sound weird, but when I want to spend a lot of money (that I have available to spend) on something, I try to spend only half instead and either save the other half or donate it to charity. I feel so much better about a want (instead of need) large purchase when I donate or put into savings.
Im a wedding and event coordinator and the most important part of my job is to stay within or under budget. Im sorry but he really did not do his job. Not cool!!
The second bride! The way she talked drove me insane
I think the rainbow dress would have looked better with the white top layer hiked up on one side or something to show off the layers underneath a bit more
