One of my best friends and i were getting married 4 months apart. She went to a bridal salon, ordered a dress, paid $6000.00 and didnt show anyone. I was her bridesmaid she was mine. I went to a warehouse and bought my dress off a rack for $500.00. When i was in the bridal salon getting my fitting for the bridesmaid dress i walked past the room she was in and saw her dress. She wasnt upset. I invited her to my house to show her my dress. It was the exact same dress. Same size. Same everything. We could have shared as well but the price difference was mind blowing. I saved $5500 buying off the rack.
My goodness, that price difference for the same dress is crazy! You were so smart! I'm curious if you told your friend how much you paid, and if you did, what her reaction was.
People place way too much emphasis and importance on a one time dress. I bet years down the line, no one will remember it and no one will care what the bride wears.
@@gparsons320 I did tell her. She was a little upset. She asked why I went to a warehouse. My fiance and I were paying for everything as both my parents were deceased and his mom was broke. And her bridesmaid dress with the shoes she picked and the hair and nails cost about $700.00. She lucked out. My bridesmaid dresses were only $100.00. Afterwards, she apogized for picking expensive things not realizing it was a burden. She listened to the sales woman who told her bridesmaid usually spend $1000 to get dressed for the wedding. Anyway, both weddings were beautiful and fun.
it is honestly insane what some of these salons charge for a dress. i would recommend EVERYONE look pretty much anywhere but a bridal salon before sinking their money into those businesses.
@@cerscil $1000 bridesmaid dresses?! omg. never trust a salesperson. i've seen people get bridesmaid dresses from department stores for less than $100.
The sister with the $5000 budget will have to chip in $2000 of her own money. Solved! I hate these women who think they can bat their eyelashes at their parents and weasel money out of them. Youre not 12.
This whole problem started when one said she had a $5000 budget when it was a lie to begin with. She ended up with a dress outside the budget and her sister would’ve ended up without a dress with their mother unable to pay for both of them. She said the limit was $3000 for both of them. But one broke the rule until the consultant heard it from the mom.
@@WellISaidIt it would’ve been fair but she turned the whole appointment into chaos. By saying $5000 she pretty much did a stupid thing by not thinking about the fact that her mother told her she could only do $3000. If she wanted to do $2000 more, she should’ve been the one to say “I’ll pay the difference” but didn’t.
@@jeniferclemente1252 I agree and they should not have had appointments at the same time. the one getting married first should have had her appointment so the other sister could participate in the feedback and thence should have had hers. It was too cahotic with both of them at once. The non-bride sister and mother didn't know where to look or what to say, divided attention.
My Mom was going to wear a blue suit to get married in, in 1955. My aunt (her sister in law) said, "No way. You can wear my dress." Her dress had also been worn by her sister a few months previous to her own marriage. I think, eventually, it was also worn by one of their friends. Later, my cousin wore it, and my aunt's niece also wore it.... Same dress, worn 5 or 6 times, the first 3 or 4 times in one generation. The next 2 times in the following generation. They were all slender, but didn't have the exact same build. Somehow, it fit each of them. They all used different veils and flowers and each looked unique. I've always thought that that was a very special way of sharing, and so very budget conscious as well.
Of course she said share it, she’s wearing it first! Why even say higher budgets when the mother has said $3,000 each which is way enough for a simple dress like that!
I think they made the right decision. Keep the peace. If one of the girls added 2,000 of her own money to her moms 3,000 allotment, she could buy that wedding gown for herself. 😊
Since the weddings are only a few months apart, I think sharing the dress is tricky. The 2nd bride to wear it may feel uncomfortable because it's already been scene by everyone. Less special/unique. Although the dress was beautiful, there are many other dresses similar to that style for much less.
My mom came from a family of 10 siblings...her sister was a year older & they decided to get married at same time...an irish wedding not done these days but practical in the 1950's. Both wore identical ballgowns & had a big church wedding...photos show strangers who showed up just to watch the ceremony. It really was a beautiful wedding!
People wear hand-me-down dresses (mother, grandmother, aunt) all the time. The two weddings are a few months apart. They could have different veils and different accessories and distinguish looks of their own. If red wine is such a worry, DON'T SERVE RED WINE. Or better yet, don't spend $5K on a dress you're going to wear for an hour or two.
no way in hell would i share a wedding dress with my sister - for all kinds of reasons but i would want it to feel like it was mine - not some hand me down
SISTER shouldn't if lied saying 5k when she only had 3k! I swear these brats!!!!! You should be thankful you got 3k! Some people like myself dont have family! Id be grateful for any help!
no way on this EARTH is such a plain jane dress worth FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS. they have dresses that are covered in lace and bling for half that. OBSCENE. like honey if you want to be wrapped in a bolt of satin i can wrap you in a bolt of satin for $50

That was a reach. I didn’t get any impression the bride getting married first was being selfish. In fact, she was just trying to help the other sister out who had said a higher budget and caused problems
@oldageisdumb exactly!!! I thought the opposite and was like "wow that's kind of her" since her SISTER was the one who was shopping thinking she had a higher budget. Why is everyone turning it around on the one offering to remedy the situation. Other brat shouldn't of said 5k and budget was only 3k
Hope the dress doesn’t get a stain or something when the first sister wears it. It’s odd to share a dress especially when you don’t know what condition it will be in post wedding
Weddings are stressful, sometimes chaotic, emotional and unpredictable in so many ways. Anything could happen to the dress, bride trips, gets cake on it (grease stain),drinks get spilt, trains get stepped on, perspiration, makeup the list goes on. Then the second bride doesn't have enough time to order a dress and no money to buy one. I am glad they did not go for sharing.
Never go shopping with another bride. It's a conflict of interest waiting to happen. Go as the only bride so you're only worrying about you. I do like the lace one that the family rejected.
04:52 When older sister said "I dont really know where that came from." that's straight up cornering her mom to pay just because there are cameras everywhere.
They could both wear the dress for the ceremony, maybe with different veils and jewelry, like jeweled belt, and then change for their receptions, which would make it less likely the dress would get dirty or be damaged.
Sharing could be a lovely idea. But maybe not with the weddings so close together! All I could think about was how the dress might need to be altered between brides and what if the dress was damaged during the first wedding. The sisters admitted they had different styles so they really should be glad they didn’t compromise by wearing the same wedding dress.
That's fine. I'm all for recycling gowns. But two sisters three months apart is a bit much. Especially when one sister feels she is obliged to comply so her other sister can break the rules
I don't care how pretty it is. I would not want to wear the same dress as my sister. The sister who blurted out that the budget is $5,000 ruined the appointment.
When I married my husband, he was the only one working as I was a full time student amd we had 3 kiddos. I chose a dress that was $300 that was "ok" but I was SO drawn to this strapless Cafe Au Lait color (it was called Gold but it wasnt "GOLD") I made the mistake of trying it on.....(I didnt have anyone to take shopping w me- our girls but they were 13 and 4) I needed help. Next day, I took my Fiance with me (he had gotten paid) we walked in and they had both of them waiting.....he said " I dont need to see them, order her the dress she wants!' And plunked down the cash $800!!!!!
Y’all head of *dry cleaning* & *mending/stitching?* *Dish soap, white vinegar or OxiClean* can easily remove stains out of that material. Save $ and share the dress lol 🤷🏼♂️
The budget thing confused me, I thought of course the sister who said $5000 wanted to add $2000 to the $3000 gifted by her mom. Aren't these women full grown adults with jobs?! Why are they expecting their parents to pay for their wedding dresses AND to raise their budget just if they ask them?
I guarantee that if they had bought the gown then the day after the first wedding bride #1 would suddenly not have wanted to hand "her" special dress over to her sister to have altered even though her sister was the one who had originally wanted it. Weddings can make women insane and territorial.
My mom and dad always told my sisters and I that they r paying for our dress when we got married. We never went to prom because we went to a private school. So they saved the money for us to get what we wanted i found a southern belle dress with the dress the under part that makes it bell out and alterations i only spent 996 dollars. So they also paid for the catering because i didnt spend much. My dress was everything i ever wanted and more. I really appreciate what my parents did for me and it was a special time with my parents. Ill never forget it.
Really those two sisters should have did their bridal gown shopping separate. I wouldn’t want a gown that my sister wore before me, and just like they were talking and discussing what is something does spilt on it? That’s really hard to get out? The second sister is out of a gown. I hope that Store remembers this little visit with the two sisters and when Or if two sisters, which are getting married close to each other, and are calling in to make appointment for their bridal gown shopping. Need to ask them is there anyway possible that you could do it separate? I would hope so.
That is what they want you to believe so that they can sell more dresses. The same as the engagement ring has to be 1.5 times the mans monthly salary. If you wanted to go for something unique then go for something other than white/cream/beige. Now that would be a unique wedding dress.

A Wedding Dress IS SUPPOSE to be UNIQUE. NOT SHARED… Nasty 👀
But wedding dresses often get passed down in the family, the grandmother to the mother to the daughter, sharing the same dress.
That is what they want you to believe so that they can sell more dresses. The same as the engagement ring has to be 1.5 times the mans monthly salary. If you wanted to go for something unique then go for something other than white/cream/beige. Now that would be a unique wedding dress.
