Why do brides think everyone they know should come dress shopping? Let them be surprised at the wedding.
@nancymckinley3068 because they like having some family and friends with them.
I had my Momma, my aunt, and my two maid of honors at mine. Wouldn’t have changed that for the world. I invited my two cousins I wish they could have made it. Less opinions doesn’t mean better I wish I had hers
@@mirandafulton2512 less opinion means, you get what you like rather than what the community likes. If you need all ppl to validate you, then good for you. The only person I would involve is mum just so she gets the feeling of being involved and have that bonding moment
@superstarcat7654 good for you in making your own dress. I bet it was BEAUTIFUL with the butterflies.
I’ve thought this often.
Also, why does anyone else think they can choose the bride’s dress?
I’m from the South, too. What I learned from my elders is that people don’t always deserve my respect just because they’re old. #ToxicBehavior
100%
I couldn’t greet more!
totally agree!
@samanthac349 RESPECT is earned. Just because someone is older doesn't mean they earned the RESPECT!!
I like to say "i don't owe you respect because your parents had sex before mine"
Respecting your elders is one thing but that doesn't mean THEY get to make YOUR decisions.
All you have to do is look at their reaction to the final dress to know that the "no bare skin" thing was a set up for the show.
Respectfully decline their decision 😊
Cool it grandma, it ain't your wedding😂
Cool it future mother in law, it ain't your wedding either!
The battle of the T profile pics
You can respect your elders without giving them control of such a big decision.
I only took my mom. Everything I tried she said "oh you look lovely!" For the other fitting appointment I went on my own. The assistants were lovely to me. The other bride in the shop was horrible and cut me dead when I tried to be pleasant. So the shop assistants were even nicer. Positive experience 😊
"If it's up to me..." Well, it's NOT!
Literally what I said 🤦🏾♀️😂
Maybe don’t bring granny dress shopping 😂
I’ve brought my cousin…, my other cousin…., my second cousin…., my 4 sisters, my mother, my father, my grandmother, my mother-in-law, my dog, my cat, my budgie, my best friend , my soriety sisters …and Uncle Tom Cobley and all !!! 🤣🤣🤣😩😩
😂😂😂
I'm not going to lie, you cracked me up 😂😂 "My budgie" did it for me - and now part of me wants someone to do that 😂😂😂
Not too trusting about a dog's taste in wedding finery -- but if the *CAT* likes it you've probably got a winner right there.
😂 love it.
Just because they’re a “Southern Grandma” you get to be rude & ridiculous?!?
Why bring the grandma and future mother-in-law when she doesn't want an old fashioned wedding dress?
Maybe you don’t live in an extended family household or environment and have been brought up in the same way . Many cultures respect the elders far more than you think. I don’t find it unusual as I lived in an extended family household where my grandmother lived with me until she died. She was my best friend, her opinion was extremely important. Shame you haven’t had this .
Depends on who those are on the other hand. But a 21 year old that are so insure of herself like this one. If she had more confidence she had not had them with her. Or gotten married yet
I was 20 years old, paid for my own dress, but I valued my Mom’s opinion. She knew what I envisioned and supported my choice.
MIL looks way older than grandma!!!!
I thought so, too.
Yea! How old is the groom??!!
Me 45 and my grandma today look just little older then her with tops 10 years
She might be older! Maybe she had her kids later in life, and grandma had hers earlier. :)
Miss Francis and Grandma should have been left at home.
The future mother-in-law is wearing that pink T-shirt pretty low. She is showing a lot of neck😂
Exactly.
Oh my GOD! I was thinking the same thing!🤣🤣🤣🤣🙌🏿
I wouldn't marry her son, I'm not dealing with no one's messy momma
That last dress was so cool - very Jackie O, 50s chic... love it.
The bride doesn’t want to disappoint her Gran but Gran is happy to hurt her grandchild 😢
The mother in law to be should keep her mouth shut unless she is going to pay for the dress.
Even then....
Even then!
A gift shouldn't come with strings
Oh come on. I’m from the South and I would never have let my grandmother dictate what I wore.
They didn’t, they gave their opinion the bride chose.
Skipper’s dress and hairstyle are really classy. Classic.
I despise the whole "children should be seen and not heard" thing. Hate it
I think there is a needed balance between not being heard and letting kids be the boss. Some parents error on both sides of the spectrum.
4:50 IT IS NOT YOUR WEDDING
I had the same attitude... I wish I had considered other's ideas for my wedding... It would have helped long term relationships!
@@hollymerchant9550 Yeah you may think like that afterwards but still it was your day and YOU should be happy and opinions can be taken as ideas but can't be forced
@@Blablablsblmbli Consider the relationships you will have after the wedding... Best advice ever! 😉
And with that Welcome back ladies and gentlemen to the show “This Isn’t Your Wedding!”
😂😂😂😂
The 2nd bride dress was so elegant. I think the 1st bride's elders would have loved it!
Future MIL was clutching her pearls a little too much. 😊
The family is adorable & so supportive for coming with her however it's not 1950.
Nothing wrong with being respectful, consider trying it . Being modest around your family and guests is classy.
Laura looked beautiful, very strong character, takes after her grandma. her teary eyed cousins are darling, they love her! Skipper chose such a pretty dress - when talking about her fiancé, she glowed, and saying, 'he didn't stand a chance"- so cute! her parents are two of the sweetest, her dad cried, her mom is an angel. She is a very lucky young woman. Congratulations!
The last bride dress was classy and stunning. Not all wedding dresses have to be strapless to be beautiful.
On the contrary, most beautiful dresses are not strapless. Strapless dresses are a con by manufacturers, cheap to make because they are one-size-fits all thanks to the corset back, easier to alter and use less fabric.
Yes, I know I'm older (got married in 1980 when all wedding gowns had sleeves) but I don't care for the strapless gowns that have been popular for the past couple decades. I'd be afraid of a wardrobe malfunction.
I loved that dress, it was simple elegance that let her shine. I don’t like strapless, never have, I would be worried of exposing myself accidentally and wouldn’t be able to dance or enjoy my own wedding in that case. I love the amount of tones of mesh these days, where you can give the illusion of showing bare skin but it just helps keep everything where it should ❤
Children do get to be seen and heard!!!!!!!!
Skipper's dress is gorgeous.
Don't think she had to say she was old fashioned. That goes with out saying.
I LOVE Skipper's dress!!! SO CLASSY AND BEAUTIFUL
Honest to God, WHY hasn’t ANYONE in these two families ever confronted their ancient ideologues before?
If my grandmother and MIL had wanted to come along when I went wedding gown shopping that would have been fine but honestly I wouldn't have cared what they thought. I respect my elders because I'm also from the South but when it comes to my wedding gown it's going to be my choice. Not what my granny would have wanted.
Why would anybody take their future in-laws dress shopping unless if they were paying for the dress?
Omg. It's what the BRIDE'S wants. When will people learn.
I'm born and raised up North and we are also raised to respect our elders!
Demure, classy, and a name like Skipper. Great combo!
Why do they let them pick a dress?. Tell them to sit down, the bride will be out shortly. Better yet, leave them to home.
"I'm kinda old fashioned..." Alright so YOU don't wear it. Let her wear what she likes.
While watching this show for so many years I’ve realized two things that are very useful that I’m wedding dress shopping myself now:
1. I’m going just with my mom. My mom is the best advisor and can provide constructive feedback
2. I’m not trying on dresses over my budget. $100-200 fine- but thousands? Hell no
I’m totally supportive of #1 as long as you are comfortable with your mom. It’s good to know you trust each like that.
The second thing… it’s hard to find a nice bridal gown for less than $200. I’m not going to lie to you. Although, I eloped and wore a white cotton cocktail dress with blue floral embroidery that I happened to buy years earlier at a retail store. I think I spent $45 on it, so who am I to talk?… But, it doesn’t really resemble a wedding dress. I have also helped a friend on a super tight budget (example: she had a potluck reception bc she couldn’t afford a caterer) look for a wedding gown only at thrift stores, and the one she ultimately chose was the “winner” because it was the only one that fit her after searching 4 stores. Even she said there was too much beading for her style. And, some websites like Temu are total ripoffs. I’m saying this so you’ll have the idea in your head now that you might want to start putting aside some money.
@@samanthac.349 my budget for the dress for $4k. I ended up spending $1.8k on Justin Alexander dress. I said yes to my dress on Friday :)
Honey, I am picking up what you’re putting down!
@samanthac.349 she meant 100-200 over budget, not that's all she is willing to pay. And I found both my dresses for under 200. One was even all lace.
@@JodiLeaSnakeQueen Yes, that’s what I meant :)
Don't bring your mother -in-law and grandma!!!
SKipper's dress was perfect for her. Lovely.
Future MIL looked formidable
"children should be seen, not heard" clearly her mom didn't tell her that enough
That's her future MIL??
My grandmother is nowhere like this, but she does sometimes say what she thinks no matter what, so I opted to not go shopping with her. She will be at a fitting though (after the dress has been bought)
Both the old people were unbearable
Future Mum-in-Law should leave the damn Bears alone🐻😅
Glad the MIL came around. She was obnoxious! Someone forgot to tell her she wasn't the bride. 😅😅
Skippers dress would look fantastic in a tea length!!! Love it!!
Why bring people that absolutely have a totally different vision from you?
The older ladies with the first bride should have taken a moment to reflect on their own weddings and whether or not their own dresses were what they liked or what their elders liked. Behavior like that can lead to elopements.
The old ladies arent getting married. Their day is gone.
Exactly..why do they think a bride should wear what they like? A wedding is personal and the start of a new family. Back off and let the bride decide
Their “day is not gone”! It’s just changed. Their focus shouldn’t be on what the bride is wearing. Their focus should be on how they can help and support their grand daughter. It’s our privilege as old and life experienced women, to find ways to add our strength to our offspring. We have the confidence to stand up for the young ones. And be their buffer from the criticisms and challenges they will face.
Last bride wins this episode 😂❤
While I absolutely agree that the first dress with sleeves was not her dress, I have to say that I found it gorgeous. Now if only it came in black and dark purple. ❤
Agreed!! I absolutely love that dress, and in a dark color…. STUNNING!
The gown at 0:21 is stunning.
I agree. I picked out my own wedding dress. On my own. A friend of mine worked in a bridal store and she kept urging me to come in to see this dress she thought was perfect for me. I finally went in. It was the first dress I tried on and fit like it was made for me. Except for hemming it, that’s all the alterations I needed. I still would pick that dress today.
Why will the store keep a “prehistoric” dress? Non sense from Monty.
Sarcasm my dear
Sometimes the seniors get married again while they are in the nursing home.
@@superstarcat7654 😂😂😂
Must be for just this occassion. 😅
I really enjoyed that! Some saves are out of this world!!
Respecting one’s elders is one thing, but that doesn’t mean they run your life.
Respect is often confused with obedience.
Obedience is for dogs and toddlers.
Respecting someone's input is fine, following their advice is more problematical. It's not as if Young Lady is asking "Should I go live with him first, see if he measures up?" which would cause pearl clutching in earnest. Though, in my humble opinion, that is what women should do, provided they protect their own interests whilst doing so. Can't really know someone until you live with them, and it works both ways too.
I love seeing people in love
There’s one thing about respecting your elders, but there’s also another thing standing up for yourself and being bald. Your grandmother is from the old school and if she really loves you, she would want what’s best for you not for her. My daughter is getting married next year and I am going to be with her to pick out her wedding dress and I want her to pick out what she wants and not what I want. That’s really what’s all aboutto be looking for your love and your support not your negativity
Brides- LEAVE THE GRANNY’S AT HOME!!! And most of the opinionated family members too. Make it less stressful on yourself!
When i went shopping for my wedding dress,both my Mum and my grandmother let me choose what ever dress i liked and felt comfortable in.
If you have that old style combo, leave them home!!!
Skipper sounds more "country" than Clancy..hahaha (as far as her accent)
The dress with the long sleeves was gorgeous. Maybe not many people’s style, but it’s not prehistoric at all!
Vintage is a better word-very like Princess Grace’s, check out the similarity. It’s from a time when more skin was covered, still true of some royal or vintage brides. Strapless is or was trendy, but she was a very young bride and each bride gets to decide on style, not grandma, for sure.
I live in the Midwest n was raised to respect my elders but even my grandma had modern taste
I think one of my Barbie dolls had a dress that looked like Skipper ❤
I totally agree with you👍
I hate hypocrites. Mother-in-law Mary is showing her neck!!!!!!!!!!
They are her support system and taking the time to get everyone in on the big decisions is important especially if they ate helping to pay for it. I wish I had such a large caring family to help me make such important decisions for happy memories.
Leave grandmothers at home and as for opinionated mother-in-laws who are pushing their views on what the bride should wear, don't get me started.
Skipper's dress was so beautiful ❤.
WHY, WHY, WHY would you bring ur future MIL dress shoping. This is a mother and daughter outing.
Love MIL clutching her pearls
Why is the grandma younger than the future mother in law......yikes. You have a fight on ur hands chick.
Where is her mother?
Surprised they even had that old fashioned dress in the store!!!!
skipper and clancy (second couple) did not stay married. he's remarried. all i could find on her is she works high up for coca cola and has a son.
It's called "he has a wandering eye"...I can almost tell from their photos together. That would be an interesting experiment, actually. Marital longevity predictions based on couple's photos only.
Why do these in laws and grandparents think they should have a say in her dress??? It’s not their wedding - it’s the brides! I would never interfere in my any of my daughter’s choices!! If you can’t say anything nice keep your mouth shut!!!xx
Its not the anterages wedding dress. Its the brides. She needs to make her decision on what she wants.
Entourage?
@@BBlair-if8tj- thank you, I was so confused.
and here we are
Grandma said “treat everyone the way you want to be treated” then she gave absolutely no respect for the bride’s first choice!
Why would you wear a bear skin to the beach? 😂
#3 dress is beautiful
"Children should be seen and not heard"? Grandma needs to find a quiet place to sit alone and knit and keep her antiquated/mean-spirited opinions to herself! And if she can't find something nice to say, especially when she sees the joy on her beloved granddaughters face, she needs to go home....
When the mother-in-law said, "IF it was my choice..." That was it, it's not.
If Monte thought the dress was archaic (and it was) why was it even in the shop?
The designer of said item is now permanently branded. If it were my design, I'd be very unhappy with such a public slanging. (Let's face it, there has to be a dress for every age group and style preference, if they want sales). Someone more mature and less likely to want so much on show, would prefer a style like this. Because it doesn't suit someone, doesn't mean it's a terrible style. (Usually lol).
The last bride and groom are Clancy and Skipper. 😄
I agree with the One commenter about taking people with you to buy that dress. It takes a village, but not necessarily to buy a dress.
I love Monty.❤
Mother in Law doesn't realise the " BEAR SKIN cover " will be Off later. Lol. Just saying
Grandma it's not your wedding!
Why is say yes to the dress so against closed captioning?
Grandma has a very high opinion of herself
the second girl had a beautiful dress
Maybe it's just me, but I don't think anyone should be expressing their opinions. It's the BRIDE'S choice. I'll admit that I'm prehistoric myself, but when I went dress shopping it was to see ONE gown that I chose from a picture in a brides' magazine and I brought my mother with me. To be honest, I only brought her because she knew the NYC subway system and I didn't. I loved the gown before I tried it on...and fell even more in love once I had it on. 58 years later, I still haven't changed my mind.
When someone gets married it her day no body's else they had their day so shut up
I went by myself to pick out my dress.
Hope they go to the bachelorette party 😂😂😂😂😂😂
