The whole thing, the dresses, the cake, the laughing during the vows, it’s like a children’s party. Then the dancing like strippers, the tears as the wedding ends. It’s their tradition, but it’s sad that the girls are not allowed any dreams or aspirations beyond getting married.
It's exactly like a children's party. The laughing during the vows was ridiculous. I don't think they should have been married if they couldn't stop laughing. That's the serious part. And the stripper dancing, oh my gosh. Each girl trying to best the next one at a wedding. So classy. I guess that's how they stay fit?
@@H20-t3g Not true, I got married 6 months ago and I was looking deeply and lovingly into my man's eyes, as was he to me. We had to wait 6 years, 3 of which we could not see one another as we were in different countries. He was finslly able to come to the US from Canada and we were married and it was the best day of my life. Lots of smiles and giggles as my little nephew yawned loudly during our ceremony, but the vows were taken seriously. It was amazing. And we will be together forever. Our story is unique, but I won't get into all of that, I just know it's definitely deep and real love.
@@H20-t3g Why so cynical? You know nothing about us or what we've been through. We will make it because we put the effort into our marriage every single day. I'm sorry, but you are either very young, or bitter about something. We're in our thirties and have waited a long time for the right person to come along. "True" love can and does happen.
With the hypersexualization of the girls, starting at such a young age, I would be astonished if there isn’t a great deal of sexual abuse within this culture.
Priscilla from the U. S. Version talks about it. She was molested and her family blamed her cuz it "dirtied" her and noone would want her or something like that. She got out though, thankfully.
@@clarie4497 wait where did you hear this?! I know Priscilla from the US was bullied but assumed it was because she was beautiful and broke away from the lifestyle but molested?! That poor girl. Thank goodness she and her mother both got out, they were two of the better ones on the US version
I think having a huge dress that will hardly fit out of the door is actually a goal. Getting to the church is a personal parade. I don't see how the pure white dress didn't get trashed with it dragging the ground and her walking in the drive and parking lot.
Or make the whole fluffy / puffy part with wet toilet paper, wait for it to dry in mould. Then go crazy with crystals, feathers , glitter ...etc . BOOM, a lightweight yet flamboyant gown.
I agree, I dont understand the gypsy parents why they dont think college is a must. . All they want there children to do is grow up and get married and have kids, and repeat the same cycle
Parts of this broke my heart to watch. At a wedding, nobody should ever have to console the bride, by saying “... we’ve all been through it, you’ll be ok...” as the bride is fighting hysterically crying.... that marriage is doomed, from before they even said “I do”😔

Maybe they have the right idea - women, everyone, should be able to wear whatever the hell they want without some goofball seeing it as an open invitation to attack them.

@@ChibiCookiexX Absolutely, it was just a comment on the fact that getting married quickly (despite your age) is seen as something weird and non-lasting in most western countries. But of course there are many things that play a part in it, age being one of them in many cases.
It's a sign! The limousine is late and the groom was late, it was sign saying " Don't do it!" You're laughing through your vows, and the groom has " Help Me" written on the soles of his shoes for a joke, and marriage isn't joke. It can be fun, but it's also work. Definitely not ready to get married from what I see.
I married my hubby 10 months after we met, woulda married him 5 months later but I had 2 finish HS. I graduated on June 2nd married on July 1st and 22 years later we r Happily still in love and together. It can last even marrying young, but it has to be the right person.
I know a young man personally who, at the age of 17, was already so huge---6'9", 370 pounds---that nobody would believe he wasn't an adult already. But his mother was one of my closest friends, so I knew her son was just a huge boy, like his bio father. By the time he reached 21, and a fully legal adult, he was even bigger, and I don't mean fat. That young man, whom I haven't seen in several years (I've moved 800 miles away), is one of the kindest, sweetest men on Earth, and highly protective of his four sisters, his mother, and his wife, but he's no pansy, and he'd rip a person limb from limb for making fun of him, or saying anything negative about them. I kind of get the feeling this young man in the video is somewhat the same way----and YOU need to learn not to be so judgmental!
@@jg7873 I don’t think the point is that there is any issue with the girls themselves. It calls into question the thinking of the adults. Why go to the lengths of rabidly protecting a girl’s virtue, employing chaperones everywhere they go to keep up appearances and practice shunning if they don’t fall on line, but allow them to dress so skimpily at such a young age. It’s one thing if you’re a grown adult and you make an informed decision to dress that way. More power to you. But get your babies off that pool table.
It blows my mind that they have all these other rules but the girls from being a toddler are faked tanned,made up like a drag queen but dressed and dancing like strippers. Am so glad my parents left all this behind when they got married. It's insane.
@@miryamamar5442 umm yeah… although one may say they dance a bit like harlots then. They are definitely quite sensual. Although the tribal belly dancing is a bit less so. But looking at belly dancers like my personal favorite Didem… she steals hearts.
I feel sorry for them they are such kiddos, she just looked at it like a big joke 😢 Being married isn't a big joke. She showed more emotion leaving her family than she did saying her vows 😞☹😪
I was glued to TLC when this show aired. I loved the shows about the seamstress. I love that you’re posting these. I wish TLC would create a new series on sharing customs such as weddings indigenous to travelers. I’d love to know where all these couples are now.
I can tell you from personal experience they tend to get the worst of the worst of any community for their shows. just like with their little pageant shows the individuals that agreed to the show were already considered a laughing stock of the community due to their extreme behavior before they went on the show. everyone else including my family refused. My parents received a few phone calls when I was younger TV stations wanting us to be on the pageant show everyone we talked to within the community turned it down. The person that wound up accepting was the living definition of crazy pageant mom.
The thing we all need to consider is how much our environment, culture, supportive resources, financial circumstances, and health play into our ability to make good decisions. So many times, we judge from afar based on our own privilege and circumstances without considering that the person we're judging or counseling doesn't have the same options or supportive surroundings readily available for them. Most of us are doing the best we can with what we have to work with, and humans as a group need to keep that in mind and just be kind.
@@memeslove9535 omg...is that what they thought you... or getting married or on drugs??? guess what??? girls can go to school get an education and get a verry good job to support themselfs... girls/woman dont need to depend on a worthless guy anymore in 2021...
I have actually commented on another video about the racism. Travellers are forever accusing none travellers of racism, but I think they have that backwards.
We all are stupid at 17. One reason to wait. I do not know the statics of divorce for gypsies but I would not think it would be higher than 50%, which is the case in the US.
@@mariecruz6764 also I don't know about original commenter but most of the people in this show are irish travellers which are different to Romani gypsies
I feel like this guy has shown more care and love for his soon to be wife than any of the other boys/men have. He may be a bit doofy but he seems to love her.
My mother got married at 17 but she had a reason though, that reason was running away from abuse. The man she married aka my father saved her from the abuse that my nana did to her.
i mean i absolutely get that, same thing happened to me. i married my best friend of 4 years at 17 and gained a whole new family from his side. one of the best things that happened to me though
@@xydoit2024 I think a lot of teens get married or pregnant to escape their abusive home life. I can’t imagine someone choosing that for themselves when they’re not under distress though.
I find it so bizarre that the girls are always watched, not allowed to drink until married and chaperoned to “keep their purity” but they dress, act and dance so sexually suggestive 🤷🏼♀️😂
This one had my jaw actually dropped for the whole thing. Groom changes into his favourite wife-beater undershirt to cut his own wedding cake, then throws bits of it at his new wife’s dress..??? Sickening and horrifying.
This couple actually seemed into each other, perhaps even 'in love'. If their relationship succeeds, then it's amazing that they found each other given their culture; 16 and 19, geeeeez 🤗😬

I married my Greek husband after dating for four months. My father is traditional Irish and didn't want me to date men, so I waited for the right one by deciding ahead what kind of man I wanted. I'm Irish-American and I didn't want to go to Greece unmarried, so we went there for our honeymoon. We're together now it's three years married, gone through many hardships, but we both feel an obligation to God first and each other. Things work out if you do the right thing, and understand that marriage is hard work, sacrifices, and being a humble, loving and forgiving person.
16! I was a junior in high school worried about passing my driving test and getting braces! Yikes! My advice, even thought I haven’t been asked: Josey, get an education or at least a trade you can fall back on and be financially independent.

@@ahamilton3435 ye no. Your argument is trash because if Josie decided to get fgm(which is very common in most cultures), you wouldnt be saying that. This is outright child abuse simple as.

@@memeslove9535 I know that’s what she was saying, but I really liked the perspective of “growing” up together because that’s so true, you do a lot of growing up with someone before you grow old.
I just wanna say I like how respectful you are being. Every comment I’ve seen is being rude about her when it’s her culture. People are so quick to say they accept everyone but in a second they start critiquing people.
Same Donna. Been married nearly 30 years. Married 6 weeks to the day of meeting...... However we had both lived a bit of life first - gone to uni, had careers, traveled the world, lived away from home, had love affairs......I feel sad for this girl as only 17 and hadn't lived properly prior.
That's pretty rare nowadays I'm happy you have done it and found your true love that's awesome you guys pretty much experienced your whole life together
I thought the same, the closest in any comparison I could think is of the Spanish gypsy, mixed with flamenco style. ONLY cus of the charms. More like belly dancer, even then its a diff ethnicity if that's what she was going for. But the wedding dress has none of that lol
Such a young age for both kids getting married. Instead of experiencing all the joys , learning experience’s, traveling( I’m sure they’ve done that a lot already), and growing up in general they immediately rushed into marriage. It’s their tradition but I truly wish both of them could have grown more before becoming married so soon. Best of luck to them. I wish there would be a show every season ( 5,10 yrs later)revisiting these couples and seeing where they are now.
Were those girls...were they *sitting* on tombstones in a church cemetery????? Were they really doing that? How unbelievably disrespectful and just wrong. What is this and why am I watching it? Good Lord.

That's different though you two were old enough to experience a bit a life during your prime youth before setting down. These couple didn't
@@ChibiCookiexX Absolutely, it was just a comment on the fact that getting married quickly (despite your age) is seen as something weird and non-lasting in most western countries. But of course there are many things that play a part in it, age being one of them in many cases.
Like my siter in law. 10 years later they divorced.
It's a sign! The limousine is late and the groom was late, it was sign saying " Don't do it!" You're laughing through your vows, and the groom has " Help Me" written on the soles of his shoes for a joke, and marriage isn't joke. It can be fun, but it's also work. Definitely not ready to get married from what I see.

I married my hubby 10 months after we met, woulda married him 5 months later but I had 2 finish HS. I graduated on June 2nd married on July 1st and 22 years later we r Happily still in love and together. It can last even marrying young, but it has to be the right person.
HOW IS HE ONLY 19?! Has anyone checked his birth certificate? 😂
Agreed.
I know a young man personally who, at the age of 17, was already so huge---6'9", 370 pounds---that nobody would believe he wasn't an adult already.
But his mother was one of my closest friends, so I knew her son was just a huge boy, like his bio father.
By the time he reached 21, and a fully legal adult, he was even bigger, and I don't mean fat.
That young man, whom I haven't seen in several years (I've moved 800 miles away), is one of the kindest, sweetest men on Earth, and highly protective of his four sisters, his mother, and his wife, but he's no pansy, and he'd rip a person limb from limb for making fun of him, or saying anything negative about them. I kind of get the feeling this young man in the video is somewhat the same way----and YOU need to learn not to be so judgmental!
Thete were 17 year olds in my high school with full on beards and some looked like grown men
It’s interesting that they have to be supervised non stop but also they’re like half naked all the time
How does their dress code correlate with behaviour? Are u insinuating that the way they dress means they are untrustworthy or promiscuous?
@@jg7873 well street walkers wear similar outfits. Just a fact.
@@jg7873 I don’t think the point is that there is any issue with the girls themselves. It calls into question the thinking of the adults. Why go to the lengths of rabidly protecting a girl’s virtue, employing chaperones everywhere they go to keep up appearances and practice shunning if they don’t fall on line, but allow them to dress so skimpily at such a young age. It’s one thing if you’re a grown adult and you make an informed decision to dress that way. More power to you. But get your babies off that pool table.

I was glued to TLC when this show aired. I loved the shows about the seamstress. I love that you’re posting these. I wish TLC would create a new series on sharing customs such as weddings indigenous to travelers. I’d love to know where all these couples are now.
I can tell you from personal experience they tend to get the worst of the worst of any community for their shows.
just like with their little pageant shows the individuals that agreed to the show were already considered a laughing stock of the community due to their extreme behavior before they went on the show. everyone else including my family refused. My parents received a few phone calls when I was younger TV stations wanting us to be on the pageant show everyone we talked to within the community turned it down. The person that wound up accepting was the living definition of crazy pageant mom.
They were SOBER while dancing. 😂
They are children. They do not know what they are doing.
The thing we all need to consider is how much our environment, culture, supportive resources, financial circumstances, and health play into our ability to make good decisions. So many times, we judge from afar based on our own privilege and circumstances without considering that the person we're judging or counseling doesn't have the same options or supportive surroundings readily available for them. Most of us are doing the best we can with what we have to work with, and humans as a group need to keep that in mind and just be kind.
It’s the mother dressing like them on the hen night for me 😂😂

I married my Greek husband after dating for four months. My father is traditional Irish and didn't want me to date men, so I waited for the right one by deciding ahead what kind of man I wanted.
I'm Irish-American and I didn't want to go to Greece unmarried, so we went there for our honeymoon. We're together now it's three years married, gone through many hardships, but we both feel an obligation to God first and each other. Things work out if you do the right thing, and understand that marriage is hard work, sacrifices, and being a humble, loving and forgiving person.

Such a young age for both kids getting married. Instead of experiencing all the joys , learning experience’s, traveling( I’m sure they’ve done that a lot already), and growing up in general they immediately rushed into marriage. It’s their tradition but I truly wish both of them could have grown more before becoming married so soon. Best of luck to them. I wish there would be a show every season ( 5,10 yrs later)revisiting these couples and seeing where they are now.
Were those girls...were they *sitting* on tombstones in a church cemetery????? Were they really doing that? How unbelievably disrespectful and just wrong. What is this and why am I watching it? Good Lord.
