This is my first time seeing an episode where someone only picks something they love, and they don't listen to the other people. It's nice to see her pick something she truly loves ❤
I’m so happy she picked the first dress!! I’m also glad she was able to stay in the room by herself to make this decision. May I add she looks so beautiful in her dress😍😍😍
The entourage treated this like a fashion show. One even said "we want to see her try on LOTS of dresses." Agreed - she should have left at least six of these people at home.
Whether it's buying a dress or a car or a house or even choosing a restaurant to eat at - sometimes friends and relatives might be jealous and not want what is best for the bride and will sabotage everything. Choose what you want.
I can totally empathize and relate to what this poor girl was going through!! I got married in September brought my Mom my sister sister-in-law and niece (she's 9) and my daughter was on video chat bc I'm in Texas and she's in Philadelphia and everyone except for my mom was pulling a hundred dresses and wanting me to keep trying on trying on trying on and I got hot overwhelmed and confused that first day! I finally said that's enough I'm not trying on anything else!! I went to the next one I found a dress that I loved my mom and I both cried and I'm so happy that I listen to myself instead of everyone else because they were not only pushy but way too expensive also!!!
Holy Toledo! That poor bride became so overwhelmed by the constant suggestions from her entourage. Don't people know when to shut up?? It was so obvious they needed to back off.
And not just satin -- _that much_ satin, along with all the flowers and stuff. I thought the satin gown was just way too much for her soft-spoken personality. I think it was the bride's sister who mentioned how the skirt of the first dress reminded her of waves, which was perfect for a Lauderdale wedding. Nice observation, I think.
She made the whole wedding dress shopping more complicated than it should be. There is no point inviting all the people to the shopping especially all those bridemaids. The more bridemaids the more they are going to make it about them. In my wedding dress shopping experience I researched before hand. I knew what I wanted went there with small group of family and tried the dresses on especially the one I knew was the one . It was the 1st dress I tried on. That was literally it!
How do we know that they ALL invited themselves because it was KLEINFELDS. Seriously, sometimes that is the way people ARE and if a person is really sweet they don't or can't force them all not to come because people get MAD and cause DRAMA. I was married during a time when most people were away at college, I was not there and was at my parents home, so Mom and I did everything together. I don't think I even had a bridal shower. It was after Christmas in January so people cheaper out on gifts. ( although I had not really been thinking about that.) My Mom had nine children and raised more grandchildren and she said, " I can't stand it when twenty people who know better all sign up on a card for a set of pillows or something like that, it is wrong and they can do better." MY EX mother in law went through our gifts that she was storing for us and GAVE AWAY the best things to our friends when they got married and left me with the cheap stuff. I couldn't believe it, well, I could, no one was good enough for her "boy". Hence ex.
She looked perfect in the first dress. Everyone else was just jealous. Their pick took all of the attention away from her as a whole. She was so happy in the first dress and those “friends” ruin everything for her. Maybe don’t have them at the wedding if they think they can dress her better than the consultants. Her mom is so sweet and supportive and knows what she looks good in.
And why do the consultants always pretend that they don't know who the bride is? In Kleinfeld's main salon, not only is the bride always seated at the one side, but - surely - the production staff has already introduced the selling staff to the client/entourage and, most likely, they have had prior "takes."
I get it. The first dress I tried on was THE dress. I could have tried on a million dresses and it wouldn't have changed my mind. I only tried on three others, I just knew.
I tried on one dress. It was on a mannikin in the store window. It fit perfectly. The dress cost $40 because it was on the mannikin. No alterations needed. No entourage to make me second guess my choice. I looked good on my wedding, and didn't break the bank on a dress I wore once.
The way I see it, its the bride's wedding. Everyone else needs to shut their traps. They're not the ones getting married. They're not the ones who are going to wearing the dress. She is.
Her bridesmaids weren't there for her. They just wanted to see the bride wore the dresses they picked so they'll know if the dress they liked suit themselves.
I'm glad she took the time at the end of the appointment to sit alone with the dress she liked the most. It's always confusing and stressful trying to please so many people, each with their own opinions.
Talk about TOO MANY OPINIONS! Glad she followed her gut and got the dress SHE WANTED . In my opinion the most important person to go wedding dress shopping with you is your mother
At this point being that there have been hundreds of disaster videos with a great posse, why do brides bring so many? You set yourselves up. It's hard to feel sorry for anyone anymore...
I actually liked the MILs pick above all else. The silhouette looked AMAZING on this bride. The only thing I didn't like about it was that giant flower strap thing. The brides pick looked lovely but not as amazing as the MILs pick but if the bride really loved her pick, that's great as well. I've always been pro bride when it comes to these things. The brides opinion should be it & nobody else's.
I would have ditched the lot.....it was just me at first and then showed my mother and that was it. Very easy, simple and no frills. Great wedding too.
That is the problem with taking such and entourage. They can provide an opinion but they have to realize that at the head of the day the bride's opinion is the most important
This episode aired some time ago. Thankfully, post-pandemic era, Kleinfeld's and many other bridal salons limit the amount of entourage members a bride can bring. 3 tops for Kleinfeld's. What a relief for the staff and brides!
I think the fact that she made her decision when she was completely alone shows how detrimental to the decision-making process a large entourage can be. I don’t understand why brides think they have to please EVERYONE in their bridal party in the first place-maybe two or three close friends/family members at the most.
I am so glad she picked the first dress she said she loved. I thought the one her friends liked was over the top for a Florida coastal wedding, and it definitely didn't meet her comfort requirement.
When the bride loved it and her mother loved it, they were done. Too bad it took hours to realize that, but I'm glad she chose that dress. It was perfect for her body, her personality and her venue.
Brides probably start out with asking one or two special people to go shopping for a dress and the rest invite themselves along and bride is too nice to say no.
The bigger the entourage, lower the self-esteem and need for external validation. Just know yourself and what suits you, take mom or a best friend or a sister or just someone honest, supportive if you need feedback but I feel its best to just go yourself and make a good decision.
I brought my mom, maid of honor, matron of honor, the best woman, the flower girl, my mother in law & her godmother, the honor attendant, the ring bearer, the bridesmaids (& junior bridesmaids), candle lighters, the officiant, the ushers & the venue owners 😂
I’m always amazed that adult women will ignore what the bride wants and focus on their own preferences. They should be a support system. (But the bride and MOB should set guidelines BEFORE the appointment.) It is also disappointing to see people have no consideration for the sales staff.
I always wonder why people give a low point for the budget. If you say budget is 3 to 6 thousand and there is a dress for under 3 that you might love they won’t even pull that dress even if it fits all your wishes. Also while they don’t encourage large entourages there doesn’t seem to be a limit to how many people you can bring. It makes the appointment crazy. Maybe the produces just want all the drama for entertainment. I wish it wasn’t so over the top ridiculous sometimes.
The first dress was perfect. The "fancy schmancy" dress (could have done without the shoulder thing) was incredible - she looked like a model, she looked stunning. But the first dress was perfect.
Thank goodness the bride stood true to herself. Otherwise she might have been uncomfortable with the other heavy dress. She was smart to decide away from the others. If the bride + the mother are BOTH happy with a dress, what more could one ask for? 😉 ( I swear l have seen a matching wedding cake somewhere that looked like dress #2! 🤭 Very lovely, but that was the first thing that popped in my mind! ) ☺️✌️❤️🦋🙏
The bride is beautiful and all the dresses were stunning on her. The satin dress was wonderful but it was not what she was looking for. She clearly said she didn’t like satin and wanted to feel comfortable. The in laws should have been more respectful of her wishes. Great that she was able to choose HER dress and best that she looked wonderful on it.
I never understood brides who loves bringing an entourage. For attention just to feel special. When in reality they don't give a fuck about you. Including family members. Leave these people at home. Only bring the person who is paying for the dress or wedding. And that's it. Take it from me. I am a lawyer. Even the bridal appointment can predict the outcome of your marriage. Where all your efforts went. Oh this lady is definitely getting divorced.
I don't understand why bride bring so many people. It is wedding for the bride. The bride she will wear it. She must choose. If she is paying for it. I understand bring her parents, or 1 best friend or close friend or if she have 1 sister. But, more I never understood. Like groom. What groom come to do? He choose his suit and lwt bride choose what she wants to wear. My daughter 19. The day she decide to get married I already told her. I will see at that stage if I can afford I will take x amount and tell her do your wedding, or start a life your choice this is what I got for you. Even for a dress Il go if she invite me if she not Il not be amgry. Is her wedding. Her life. She gets to choose. I don't understand why the groom do appear in some app, mother in law, sister in law, brother in law. They must go to they son. To be honest this suppose to be a time for 3 people in my view Bride Mom Best friend Maybe nanny if she was present namny. Everyone else is extra.
I totally understand how this girl wanted a fun but comfortable dress. When I got married that was my criteria, the dress had to be light and comfortable to wear. Her pick was right for her, the dress was amazing.
Next time try leaving 6 of those people at home!!!
Probably leaving all of them at home, but mother.
@@diamondbentley7469 probably right 😂
Exactly. 👌🏼
The in-laws had no business being there, and dictating the dress!! So much audacity
Exactly! Why does anyone need to bring so many people?
So happy she choose the first dress. Looks amasing on her!
Yesss! Thank goodness ❤

-way too many ppl with her ... !-

Mob mentality. 🤷🏻♀️
Next time, leave six people at home. Just you, your mom, and your sister can go to the salon.
Hope she doesn't have ever to choose a wedding gown again 🙌
Or just the bride, tbh.
Satin in Florida!!?? Those girls don’t know what they are doing
And not just satin -- _that much_ satin, along with all the flowers and stuff. I thought the satin gown was just way too much for her soft-spoken personality. I think it was the bride's sister who mentioned how the skirt of the first dress reminded her of waves, which was perfect for a Lauderdale wedding. Nice observation, I think.
Sticky situation for sure.
Carli's mom seems like a wonderful person

The first dress was pretty but the satin was a show stopper. However comfort is important.
And why do the consultants always pretend that they don't know who the bride is? In Kleinfeld's main salon, not only is the bride always seated at the one side, but - surely - the production staff has already introduced the selling staff to the client/entourage and, most likely, they have had prior "takes."
The production team ask them to pretend. No one likes to be cringe on TV
In the end it should be what the bride wants and feels most comfortable in. I'm so glad she chose dress one and she looked absolutely beautiful in it.
Why's her mother in law's friend there?!!
I would litterally say she looked beautiful in everything but let her know its her choice i just wanna see my friends happy and Healthy.❤
She absolutely looked gorgeous in that first dress and she should have left most of her entourage behind.
Bride's choice not the entourage.
First dress was perfect on her. Perfect choice and glad that mom stand by her.
I get it. The first dress I tried on was THE dress. I could have tried on a million dresses and it wouldn't have changed my mind. I only tried on three others, I just knew.
When you know, you know. 😉
I tried on one dress. It was on a mannikin in the store window. It fit perfectly. The dress cost $40 because it
was on the mannikin. No alterations needed. No entourage to make me second guess my choice. I looked
good on my wedding, and didn't break the bank on a dress I wore once.
Mom knew what her daughter wanted.
Just with mom at the end.. Perfect. Just as it always should have been ❤
So sad when it's all about the wedding, the bride and the dress and not about the marriage.
The way I see it, its the bride's wedding. Everyone else needs to shut their traps. They're not the ones getting married. They're not the ones who are going to wearing the dress. She is.
That is why she should have left them at home.
Why in the hell would you want to make everyone else happy?!!!
Her bridesmaids weren't there for her. They just wanted to see the bride wore the dresses they picked so they'll know if the dress they liked suit themselves.
I'm glad she took the time at the end of the appointment to sit alone with the dress she liked the most. It's always confusing and stressful trying to please so many people, each with their own opinions.
Support the bride and her decisions. She has to wear the dress.
I often wonder if a large group of people are looking for their dress 👗🤔😮
Mother in law’s friend?! WTH is she doing there lol
The shop should put a limit on people who comes but then again it is a TV show so they need the drama
Talk about TOO MANY OPINIONS! Glad she followed her gut and got the dress SHE WANTED . In my opinion the most important person to go wedding dress shopping with you is your mother
Think entourage should kept to a max 4.
Not surprising she was confused with such a huge entourage all bringing their opinions to the table, as well as dresses off the racks haha
They should limit the entourage to 3 people. Bride and 3 others. That's it.
It’s a shame that there isn’t a limit on the amount of people that you can have with you.
Im so happy she got the dress she loved. I have to say, tho, I thought dress #3 was stunning, but not for her
Oh the satin dress! But whatever makes the bride happy
IT'S THE BRIDES WEDDING, PANEL, SIT DOWN AND SHUT UP!!!! LET THE BRIDE CHOOSE HER DRESS!!!!
8? I don't have that many people I know... I brought my mom, grandma's, and best friend. 4
At this point being that there have been hundreds of disaster videos with a great posse, why do brides bring so many? You set yourselves up. It's hard to feel sorry for anyone anymore...
I actually liked the MILs pick above all else. The silhouette looked AMAZING on this bride. The only thing I didn't like about it was that giant flower strap thing.

Bride should please herself and the rest can....
NOPE!!!---Not-no-way,-not-no-how!--she-was-a-gorgeous-woman,-and-ONLY-her-opinion-should-have-mattered.
Too many cook's spoil the broth
Your entourage is distorted!
Malligheid om so baie te bring. Dit is nie eers nodig dat jou ma daar is nie. Dit is die bruid se keuse en dag😮
Say ❌ to this type and number of entourage.
How dumb and tacky to have such a huge crowd! Come alone! Elope and tell no one!
Why do they allow so many ppl anyways ,there should be like 2 or 3 per bride .
Is the mother and the following getting married?.
I hate mothers who think its about them
Sort the scruffy hair !! Any dress will do.
I thought her hair was amazing!?
These ladies are treating this appointment like it’s fashion show dress up time. That first dress was lovely
I agree and love the first dress.
What would possess anyone to bring eight people to the appointment? Absolutely insane.
I would have ditched the lot.....it was just me at first and then showed my mother and that was it. Very easy, simple and no frills. Great wedding too.
She may be a people pleaser and feel like she didn’t want to disappoint them by not bringing them.
To give 'em all a chance to be on TV. That's all.
That is the problem with taking such and entourage. They can provide an opinion but they have to realize that at the head of the day the bride's opinion is the most important
Good grief, too many cooks spoil the stew
I’m so relieved that she got the beautiful first dress! She lit up in it! It was definitely, definitely HER dress.
They just wanted to play, "Dress Up!"
FINALLY! She picked the dress for HER!!
This episode aired some time ago. Thankfully, post-pandemic era, Kleinfeld's and many other bridal salons limit the amount of entourage members a bride can bring. 3 tops for Kleinfeld's. What a relief for the staff and brides!

I don’t understand why brides think they have to please EVERYONE in their bridal party in the first place-maybe two or three close friends/family members at the most.
The 1st dress was her dress. Each person in her entourage were picking dresses that they'd wear.
Yes, I knew it the minute she walked out in it the first time. 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
She should have left the bridesmaids at home. It's an experience only for family.
I am so glad she picked the first dress she said she loved. I thought the one her friends liked was over the top for a Florida coastal wedding, and it definitely didn't meet her comfort requirement.
That is so sweet that she made her decision with just her mom in attendance. What a beautiful moment!!
This only goes to prove my best advice: go dress shopping on your own, and please yourself. If you're going hiking, take a friend, don't go alone.
When the bride loved it and her mother loved it, they were done. Too bad it took hours to realize that, but I'm glad she chose that dress. It was perfect for her body, her personality and her venue.
1st dress is SO much better that this puff of flowers her friends selected.
Glad she was able to decide; the first dress looks beautiful!
The first dress was perfect.
Stunning. The first dress was incredible.
I love the first dress too.
Brides probably start out with asking one or two special people to go shopping for a dress and the rest invite themselves along and bride is too nice to say no.
Or they know the bride is being filmed and that they will also be on TV!
Yep!!
The bigger the entourage, lower the self-esteem and need for external validation. Just know yourself and what suits you, take mom or a best friend or a sister or just someone honest, supportive if you need feedback but I feel its best to just go yourself and make a good decision.
She didn't even smile in the satin dress but was absolutely radiant in the first dress and her friends couldn't see that. Sad.
I brought my mom, maid of honor, matron of honor, the best woman, the flower girl, my mother in law & her godmother, the honor attendant, the ring bearer, the bridesmaids (& junior bridesmaids), candle lighters, the officiant, the ushers & the venue owners 😂
😅😅😅
It was just me and my parents and we picked the most beautiful dress for me and we had a fabulous Time together.
I’m always amazed that adult women will ignore what the bride wants and focus on their own preferences. They should be a support system. (But the bride and MOB should set guidelines BEFORE the appointment.) It is also disappointing to see people have no consideration for the sales staff.

Don't bring so many!!!!!! It makes it harder on the bride in the end. Maybe a couple. Those girls are picking out THEIR dress, not hers!!!!!!
Large wedding parties just make the bride look like a bottomless pit of neediness & attention.
That suited her
I've never seen a drop-waisted dress look good on anyone. They give you a long torso and short legs.
The first dress was perfect. The "fancy schmancy" dress (could have done without the shoulder thing) was incredible - she looked like a model, she looked stunning. But the first dress was perfect.
That satin dress was way too much, as if everybody threw something on it until they had nothing left, just hideous.
Why the hell do brides have an entourage to "help" choose their dress? It's the bride's choice at the end of the day!
Why is the Mother In Law’s friend there for gods sake
WARNING DON'T TAKE 8 EXTRA PEOPLE TO HELP PICK (YOUR DRESS)
That first dress was stunning! 🤍
I hate when they don’t say the price what the hell is wrong with you guys?
Only immediate family should be allowed at these events
PERFECT. The entourage needs a time out. In the corner. With no chocolate.
Ha, ha... Love it! ☺

Lol why is her mother-in-law’s friend here 😂 Carli should’ve just brought her mom and left everyone else at home
I think you misheard her lol. She said: Her mom her mother in law. Her sister in law, her maid of honor, her matron of honor and bridesmaids.

To be honest this suppose to be a time for 3 people in my view
Bride
Mom
Best friend
Maybe nanny if she was present namny. Everyone else is extra.
I totally understand how this girl wanted a fun but comfortable dress. When I got married that was my criteria, the dress had to be light and comfortable to wear. Her pick was right for her, the dress was amazing.
