Sounds like mom is jealous of her daughters figure. Weird and sad.
Lol older women hate hips. Younger women don't because they have learned most men like them.
@@peachygal4153Very true. My 65 year old mom hates her wide hips because of how much attention she gets because of them
The bride has a much better figure than her mom ever had and Mom just can't stand that.
@@peachygal4153 Grandma sure knew what men like!
I thought I was the only one rhinking this jealoussssss
That mom should be ashamed of herself. Flat up toxic
💯
Wedding is probably in a conservative church. She should have come from another angle though
@@MsJubjubbird nothing says conservative than a parent telling the bride not to show everything especially if they want it in a church not the bride
@@sailorathena17 if the bride has picked the family church, then those are the rules.
Yep
Mom's day is done. The way she spins it to say "but I know how you feel about your hips...." No, it's how YOU feel about them. Get over it! So sad to constantly degrade your daughter.
I thought the mom's comment was funny to begin with and then when they showed them walking out and the daughter is wearing a top that really emphasizes her hips, I wondered if the mom has any idea at all about who her daughter is.
If this gorgeous lady has ever been insecure about her hips, it's 100% due to the mother's toxic attitude. Absolutely insufferable!
I think Toxic Mom is JEALOUS!
@@patmccoy8758 I agree, jealous of her shape
The mom is gaslighting and projecting her own insecurities on her daughter.
Love grandma’s supportive comment: “Got to show them while you got ‘em”!
Right? I was like, "Amen, sister!"
I'm really chesty and my Nonna always says "flaunt it while you got it". I get insecure sometimes, cause it's really hard for me to find tops that are flattering
Grandma knows...she knows
Horrible behaviour of the mother,,,
@@ashleymarks3726don’t worry about it! I’m 13 and here’s a tip for you to think abt when ur feeling insecure:)) “everyone has insecurity’s to why think about people looking at you and “judging you” they’re focusing on their own insecurity’s so why would they be thinking about yours? Your beautiful the way you are ❤😊
Bride: "I think I look good in this dress"
Mom: "I know more than anyone sitting here how you feel about your body"
SOOOO TOXIC !! 🤮🤮🤮
I would have said " no you don't because it's MY BODY!"
@@amidthephantomsrosewith toxic mothers you can never win. I once had a headache and I felt hungry..... So I ate. My mother was so angry at me coz I ate. She thinks that if you feel sick, you should fast, shouldn't eat. I explained, It is just a headache and my body is signaling to me that I must eat. She then went on a rant about how she knows better if I should eat or not and that she is more "competent" in medical stuff than I am, and she wants only the best for me. I replied that I am more competent on what my body feels coz it is my body and there is no way she could feel what my body feels, and I feel that I need to eat coz other ways I will not only have a headache, but I will also start fainting coz of lack of energy coz I hadn't eaten that day. My mom went into a violent rage coz I dared to stand up to her and she started to throw random stuff at my head (I don't know where she got the idea that hitting my head with random objects will help heall my headache. No competent person in medical issues will dare to do that... That is how she wants the best for me, bullshit). I then called my friend to get me strong ibuprofen and to evacuate me. That was the last time my mother ever saw me. Went no contact, cold turkey, coz I was tired of her constant emotional and physical abuse.
That comment took me out!!! 😤
"Cover up what you don't wanna show." Obviously the Bride wants to show her hips. I hate when mom's project their own insecurities on their daughters.
The bride has a fabulous figure and sexy hips. Mom is a mess with a big fat mouth and no empathy nor taste.
Wanted to see if mom had those same hips!
@@joywebster2678Mom WISHED she still had hips like that!!
I love her grandmother’s support. Mom is talking about hide what you don’t want everyone to see…. THEY ARE JUST HIPS! Good lord MOM! And they are “covered” she’s not walking out in a full sheer dress showing her butt crack and vajayjay. It’s terrible that she has to conform to her moms wants for HER big day. Mom’s selfishness resulted in her walking away without a dress and I bet mom could care less.
Her hips WERE covered in all the dresses. She wasn't walking naked to the showroom floor.
This mother seems to be jealous of her daughter's pretty figure, grandma is a darling
I've got a feeling grandma is going to put mother in her place when they get home.
The second dress was the winner in my opinion. The bride looked beautiful and happy in it. That mum is a piece of work.
I agree! It was the most flattering and beautiful as well.
Yes, absolutely true 😢
Agree on the second dress the first was too form fitting those styles are ok for girls who are thin everywhere plus looks like it would be hard to move around in...just my 2 cents lol
The comment about how she’s knows how her daughter feels about her body is shameful. Sounds like the mom has body issues not the daughter
Yeah, gaslighting much
I hope she always feels beautiful in her body, because she's beautiful.
I think the mom is super mean and she enjoys the power she has over her daughter. Why would any mother be like that? Surely she wants her daughter to feel happy with her choice of dress on HER wedding day?
It's called Narcissism
i so agree. That "i can say no" business was totally out of line. Shameful.
Mom ain't happy. My aunt was the same way with my cousin. Her daughter was happy and getting attention. Mom was miserable and vying for attention. She was worse on her daughter's wedding day. We all rolled our eyes, kept the daughter in the dark about her mom's behavior and just had fun. Which was a win win for me. I can't stand my aunt and seeing her miserable because everyone was having fun was just icing on the wedding cake 😅
Wedding is probably in a conservative church. Some women also use their daughters for some self worth. She's also 23 and every 23 year old wants to be sexy. She might change her mind about her choice in ten years time
@@MsJubjubbird the church couldn't be THAT conservative. The daughter would have had that in mind. It's not like she wanted to show off too much skin or make her bust a focal point. It was just her curves she wanted to embrace. And as for her being 23 and wanting to be "sexy", there are women literally double her age who want to show the same or even more. Age has nothing to do with it. She, like many other brides, wanted to feel confident in their own body and ultimately their dress. Mom was destroying her confidence. More than likely because she had little to no say about her own dress. Misery loves company. Especially when that company is starting to show confidence.
The key to this is, to buy your own dress. Because then your nasty controlling mom, southern or otherwise, has nothing to say about what you wear.
So agree!
Amen sista!
yes exactly. If my mother pulled this crap on me then I would have said (in the store) Thanks for the offer to buy my dress but I didn't realise it would mean you also choosing the dress I wear to my own wedding. I will buy my own dress.
@@ktwashere5637 I do not understand how your daughter is old enough to marry and yet is not old enough to choose her dress. If she has to be told what to wear, she is too young to marry. What the girl should have done is called off the wedding and eloped. Then her mother couldn't participate at all. That would have really pissed her off and I for one would have stood there and laughed, just for spite. I really hate seeing mothers act like this.
100% correct
“I hate mermaid dresses”
Me: Well, you’re not the bride!
This mom is so jealous of her daughter’s beautiful shape. It’s obvious.
I hate when Mothers press their own insecurities onto their daughters😒
This beautiful bride has a mumzilla for a mother. That mother is trying her best to try and body shame her daughter. The bride looks amazing.
I wanted to SCREAM at her mother!
Do never scream at narcissists, they feed on your rage. Ignore them.
The bride should get what she wants. I let my daughter pick what she wanted.
I let my daughter pick as well. I gave her a budget, and she went over a bit, but worth it for a dress she loved. My problem was she looked gorgeous in every dress she tried on, so there was no tears from me. I was just there to support her and pay.
@pamtanner516 same with my daughter. My main question was, "Do you feel beautiful?" I was there to support, and pay.
@@cecedubois5147 the one thing I will tell you is she chose a dress with sleeves and back coverage. Once she turned 18 she choose to get her fair share of tattoos. I don’t/didn’t approve. So thankfully her dress hid all of those.
@@cecedubois5147 my hubby paid for the dress.
When the daughter has to say "Mom has the look on her face I was hoping for" instead of the mother saying that about the bride, something is really, really wrong.
I was just thinking that... A child shouldn't have to worry about seeking their mother's approval for things like this.
The bride looked wonderful on all the dresses but the second one was the best and it could have been a good compromise for both.
Totally agree! The second dress was gorgeous on her!!
Compromise is not in momma dearest's vocabulary. You do what she wants or she makes you miserable. Your first in many lessons about boundaries, my dear.
they could have also gone with the column dress for the reception and added a tulle overskirt for the ceremony.
That first mother has real issues and is projecting them onto her daughter. What a horrible, toxic woman. I really hope the bride got the dress she wanted (and therapy to break free from her mother’s bodyshaming).
Honey, you're a grown up. Pay for your own dress and don't let your mother shame you.
It is so sad how we inherently and desperately seek the approval of parents who don't deserve that level of loyalty.
I cannot imagine my mom critiquing my body when I was shopping for a wedding dress.
Fantastic figure on the bride! The mermaid gowns are really flattering on her. The bride has to wear the dress, so the final decision should be hers
That poor girl is going to spend the rest of her life fixating on her hips because of her mom.
And that's horrible because her shape is super attractive. A really conventionally drop dead gorgeous figure.❤
She probably already does secretly since I doubt this is the first time the mom said that to her
Mom is just body shaming her. She looks curvy because she IS curvy. Every dress in the store will show some curve. It's like the people who attack large chested women for dressing "slutty" when they're in the same pants and t-shirt uniform as everyone else.
My mother did the exact same thing when I was looking at wedding dresses. Constantly telling me how fat I looked to the point I was in tears and just wanted to leave. We ended up going to the court house bc it just wasn’t worth the stress she put me through
I am so sorry to hear this. I don't think Mother's have to be with the bride when she buys her dress. Since I was paying for everything, I went dress shopping on my own. When Mom finally saw the dress, she and Dad loved it.
😱 I’m sorry that happened to you
i’m so sorry that happened to you. back when i got married i had a students mom tell me to tell me what i wanted and she would design the pattern and make it. my mom came with me to get the material she was all support and no stress- she was a dear!
I’m so sorry you were forced into doing that. I hope your mom isn’t still trying to force her will on you. This is why some daughters have to move far away from their parents. I hope your marriage is full of joy.
I hope you moved far away from her...
She looked absolutely gorgeous in the mermaid…I can never understand how moms can put down their daughters that much, so sad
“All anyone’s gonna see is her hips”
And…that’s a bad thing how, exactly?
Apparently, that's all mom sees.
That mom outta be ashamed of herself. So sad her daughter couldn't pick out a dress because of her mom's insecurities and beliefs.
Mom is jealous. Her daughter is beautiful and a great shape.
When you come back, leave mombehind
This bride does have a perfect beautiful figure. The second dress was WOW. Mom's like this is the reason I went dress shopping alone.
Just Googled her wedding to see what she decided on. Whitney got married in 2013 and has two gorgeous daughters. And she wore an A line which was similar to dress two, except it didn’t have a sweetheart neckline but was straight across. She looked gorgeous.
And she's allowing her mommie to body shame her daughters. Two pigs in a pod.
Well I saw that the moms OTHER daughter got married in a mermaid dress like the first daughter wanted! Wonder why she let the younger daughter have a mermaid dress. 🤷
@@countrygirl5579maybe that daughter had a strong backbone and told their mother “I’m wearing it anyway!”
@@Lily_of_the_Forestthat or mom hopefully realized what an ass she came off as and saw she needed to fix that.
Mama needs to worry less about what SHE wants and maybe give a damn about what her DAUGHTER wants.
Buy your own, then tell Mama, “I invited you for your opinion, but that doesn’t mean you tell me what I wear.”
What is the mom's obsession with her daughters hips!?!
Mum should be ashamed of herself. Her daughter looked stunning in all of the dresses. Let her choose her own dress!
That second dress was absolutely stunning.
Excellent time to start teaching mother dearest the meaning of the word boundaries. She'll need them if she doesn't want three people in their marriage.
She has such a beautiful shape. The mom is just being a prude
It was the opposite dynamic with my mother, I would say I thought a dress made me look too big in the hips and my mother would say, women have hips! They're supposed to have curves. 💗💗💗 Love my Mom
I hope mom is proud of herself for ruining her daughter’s dress shopping!
Shame on her for making it all about herself!
If the bride truly disliked her figure the way mom claims, she most likely wouldn’t be trying to get a dress that shows it off..😵💫
That “I know how you feel about your body” comment sounded more like “I know how I always felt about my body, and my insecurities, which I’m now projecting onto my child.” It’s just so draining to see mothers do this to their daughters.
They are not YOU! They’re their own person!!
Jealous mother sad
Whitney should have left momma at home.
That second dress was super pretty on her and the mom just shot it down. Such a shame
How awful for a parent, especially a mother with a daughter, to hold their child hostage with negative energy and purse strings. Hiss boo on you, mama.
I guess I’ll never get over the way parents and friends think it’s a good look to act like this when dress shopping. I’d be so embarrassed to act like this in public…
So incredibly proud of this bride for putting her feelings first ❤❤
What is wrong with these moms "body shaming" their daughters and making the wedding about what they want!!! How did any man marry someone so self centred and entitled 😒
Mom isnt wearing the dress.
Oh my word. She's GORGEOUS! 🥰
She looked absolutely stunning/gorgeous in all of the dresses 🤩
I also had a jealous mother who ruined my dream wedding.
It’s not about YOU MOM!!! It’s ALL about your daughter & how SHE feels! Good grief!! 🙄🤦🏻♀️
Why don’t these Moms realize it’s not their wedding day. Let the bride choose what makes them feel beautiful. Seems extremely selfish.
I am seething from this mom... She is such a narcissist to have actually brainwashed her daughter to feel the day is about her.
I snapped when she said it was the look she wanted to see on her mother...
That's supposed to be what the mom is saying about the BRIDE! Not the other way around!
My head is throbbing I am so angry. 😤😡🤬
I don't like mermaid dresses AT ALL and that is not for me (even though I like my curves). I just primarily like a line type dresses. But the point is that it's up to the bride! I would want my mom's approval too, but at the end of the day, she shoukd get what she wants.
This girl has one of the most beautiful figures I have ever seen on this show. She's stacked like a brick sh*******! Lucky groom, and any of these dresses look fantastic on her!
The bride looked absolutely gorgeous in that first dress!!! I really felt bad for her for the way her mom made her feel
Why getting married when you're not adult enough to buy yourself a dress and being not controlled by the mother?
I wonder this a lot when watching this show.
Part of it is traditional. Moms always want their daughters to wear what they wore or if not, they offer to pay. Almost a symbol of the last time you dress your child. That being said, many do pay for a dress themselves and mom still has control. Because Mom has brought up their child(ren) to be so co-dependent on mom. Making decisions without moms ok makes them feel guilty. That's some severe brain washing while growing up.
I think the first dress wss amazing on her
I had to agree with the mom; all I saw was her hip area.
@@laurellane1721 I get you're that mom's and too, right? When we grew up being super skinny and poker straight was the look you were supposed to have. Now? The younger generations love the bigger hips and booties.
If you have ever looked through historical fashion books or magazines you will know that throughout history different body shapes and therefore clothing styles were popular. During many times of the 19th century (between 1800 and 1899) the hourglass figures with a hoop skirt of various sizes was fashionable. During the roaring 1920s the fashion style was to look like a woman did not have any curves at all. During the 1930s and 1940s because of the depression and World War Two it was considered prudent to conserve fabric and live within your means. The large full bell shaped skirts and dresses during the 1950s was a symbol to the world that the American people were so wealthy (compared to people in other countries) that they could afford to use ten or more yards (nine or more meters) for one casual everyday dress.
@@laurellane1721that’s what happens when u are curvy and wear a fitted dress, you wouldn’t say the same thing if that was worn by a skinny girl
Some moms are way too controlling!!! I was lucky to have a mom who supported me, no matter what.
Same here.
mom chill out it's her day
When will these difficult mothers realise it is not their wedding day! Poor girl.
One day I want to see the bride to be just go "mum as this is the dress that makes me feel bridal. I'm paying for it!"
Watching all the episodes I have, I really dont understand, whether the mom or parents are paying for the dress or not, why they feel its up to them to decide on which look the daughter decides on, depending on price. If shes mature enough to decide to get married with her families blessings, pretty sure shes old enough to decide how she wants to look walking down the aisle. I think of how my late daughter would have reacted to me saying no, not that one, lol. I understand wanting the mom to love the dress, but loving the daughter, she should be happy for her, whatever style she chooses.
I’m sorry for the loss of your daughter.
I'm so sorry for your loss. I lost my mum recently. I cannot imagine your grief, but I'm sending solidarity hugs. x
@@CleoS-vx5pd thank you so very much 🤗
If this woman is getting married, she is old enough to decide on the style of her wedding dress... period.
She looked beautiful and the first 2 dresses had her eyes sparkling! It’s her day and she should be able to choose for herself!
She looked beautiful in everything... Say bye to mom. Go grandma your cool
That mom was atrocious. The mermaid dress looked phenomenal on her. Mom is clearly jealous!
This is the most important day of your daughters life. Let her choose her OWN dress.
‘I know more than anyone sitting here how you feel about your body’
If that is true it’s because mum’s given the bride every insecurity she has :(
"that's the first step of standing up to mom" well said!
"In a sea of mermaids, there's always one shark" !!
Sounds like mama is jealous
Mom you had your time and now it's your daughter's time to shine please be supportive because after the wedding and she chooses a dress that you chose for her she's going to be the one watching back on her photos and regretting that she never got the dress she wanted because of her mom
The 1st Young Lady NEEDS TO DO HER!!! Momma has to SIT BACK & BE QUIET 👀
Exactly why I paid for my gown. I also had a bitter jealous family wanting to rain on my parade. Family will try to control with purse strings.
she should elope and not take one penny from that awful woman.
When I first read this I thought it said “paid for your groom” and I thought, this comment is about to get juicy 😅😅
You thought you sensed a soap opera story here 🤣😂🤣😂🤣
I thought grandma was gonna smack momma...that look...rotfl!! ❤😂
Mama, it's NOT your wedding!
She looked absolutely amazing in the mermaid dress. Her mother is full on witchy. It's not her wedding. It's her DAUGHTER'S
TThe second bride, Laura has the most beautiful eyes and smile I’ve ever seen. She just radiates.
Mum must have had an awful hip trauma in her past 😂
Time for a courthouse wedding! This mom is so controlling that she appears jealous of her beautiful daughter. That’s both sad and disgusting.
That mom, using her daughters insecurities to shame her, is atrocious. Ladies save your own money for your wedding so no one can tell you what you can and can not wear.
2:45 Lol Monte 😅
The bride looked drop dead gorgeous in every dress she tried on. She also never had a dress that looked like lingerie or showed to much skin.
I hope mom sees these comments. She was pushing her own insecurities onto her daughter. Mom needs therapy.
That mother isn't supportive. The bride should trust her instincts. That second dress was gorgeous!
The mom was jealous and projecting, her daughter looked absolutely gorgeous in a mermaid dress
So sad. The 2nd dress was gorgeous and the 1st. She is a beautiful young lady. How unfortunate that her plump mom is making her beautiful daughter feel bad. Thank goodness for grandmom. Maybe the grandmom and fiance could help with the funds.
I would have taken out a loan for the dress & left mama at home.😂
Momma, you can't see that your daughter loved the second dress and was trying to make you happy? You need glasses and a tune-up from grandma!
The Mother hates the way she looks, so she isn't comfortable until everyone around feels uncomfortable about the way everyone feels about themselves too. That Young Lady better wise up quickly. Her Mother is on a warpath to plants seeds to self destruction and insecurity into every Girl in their Family. She is miserable and controlling. She will not stop. She will only do more until she destroys every relationship she has. She knows how Beautiful her Daughter is, and it upsets her. How sad is that? The Mother is jealous. The sad thing is that The Bride will have to realize that for herself and recognize how much damage she has caused her and how to distance herself from her.
If you aren't mature enough to pick your own dress how will you ever handle being married?
My Mum decided almost everything for me before I got married. Thankfully I have a very supportive husband and I figured out my style. It took me a long time though, because I didn't have any practice.
@@tonygroves5526 And how much crap did you put HIM through?
Mama sounds like Carrie's Mom Margaret "No you can't wear that or do that thing IT'S OF THE DEVIL You're Going To Hell!!" lmao
All of those dresses looked gorgeous on Whitney because she really did have the perfect bridal figure. I hope she stood up to her mom and got the figure hugging dress she always hoped for.
When someone controls the purse strings and uses it to control the person, whether a parent or a child, it is soul destroying.
Honestly, each episode of Say Yes to the Dress I watch just impresses on me how much you need to save up and be able to pay for your own dress to avoid needing to make the person paying happy with the dress you get (not sure if her mom is paying or not here, but a lot of the parents or grandparents pay in this show)
"We ain't gonna see eye to on on this."
My hope is one day a bride will respond with this:
"We don't have to see eye to eye, for three simple reasons.
1) You ain't wearing it.
2) You ain't paying for it
3) You ain't getting married in it.
It ain't your day, you're just here for fun...so step off."
Come on Mom, be nice. She seems like a nice daughter. You obviously raised her right. Let her pick out her we'd dress.
