A bride surprised her grandparents by showing up to her rehearsal dinner in her grandmother's wedding dress from 1961. To Taylor Pulfer, 29, her grandmother Sue, 82, and her husband, Dan, 82, are the beacon of the family - their 65 years together being the epitome of a strong marriage. Taylor from Dallas, Texas, said she had no real family heirlooms to incorporate into her big celebration - but then she remembered that her grandmother's dress had played a big part in more than one family wedding. More than two decades after Sue had worn her wedding dress for her marriage to Dan, the couple’s daughter, Angela, wore the dress for her wedding in Wichita, Kansas, in 1984. Taylor decided to keep her incorporation low-key and secret, asking her mom to visit her grandma to check if she still had the dress, which she then found in a garment bag in a relative's attic. Having sourced the dress, Taylor had a vision of what she wanted to accomplish: repurposing it for the rehearsal dinner before her big day. She admitted that she had no idea how to go about such alterations - but fortunately, one of her bridesmaids had seen a viral TikTok video of a wedding dress redesign by a designer, Lovell Faye, who lived just 20 minutes away. On February 23, Taylor and her husband Randall, 29, made their way into Sixty Vines in Uptown, Dallas, where they hosted a rehearsal dinner in the venue's greenhouse. Taylor, wearing the altered dress, made a B-line straight for her grandmother, who did not realize the garment's significance but said that Taylor looked beautiful, "like a ballerina." Then, when Taylor and family members broke the news to Dan and Sue about their granddaughter's dress, the couple were taken aback, later sharing a tear over the gesture's thoughtfulness.

Ohh no! I would’ve cried if I were the grandma.
Me too!! I don’t like it!
It's horrible. She ruined it !
I was saying the same thing
I’m so glad I’m not the only one who thought she ruined the dress and felt she disrespected her grandma!
Shame on the bride for ruining the dress. Grandma does not look happy and I don't blame her.
This bot voice is one of the most annoying. I fear she made drop one of those too wide smiles on the floor
Shame on the bride's mother for letting her do this and shame on the alterations person who agreed to do this.
@@PatchworkUSAfrr💔
If she wanted to wear the dress for the rehearsal so bad she should have just worn it instead of ruining it.
This is actually sad. Grandma didn’t even realize at first that the granddaughter was wearing her wedding dress. She didn’t even recognize her own freaking dress because the granddaughter completely butchered it. Literally ruined her grandmothers wedding dress to wear it for a one time dinner. Not even the actual wedding. She shouldn’t have done that. Hey grandma look at me I’m wearing your wedding dress for tonight’s dinner but don’t worry I made it into my own style because I would’ve never gone out for dinner wearing it in its original design. What a slap in the face.
Ikrr it’s so disrespectful! She should have asked her grandma before destroying her gorgeous dress💔
She didn't ask Grandma Sue first. How thoughtless and selfish. If someone did that to my wedding dress I would die. Plus she took a beautiful vintage dress and ruined it.
Vintage dress: trashed.
Family tradition: ruined.
The entitlement is strong with this one.
I was sad she cut it. I think the grandma was too. She could have just had it steamed. And wore it the way it was. I don't think she did it for her grandmother 😢
Total entitlement. That could have been a family heirloom. 💔
I'm glad we're all in agreement. lol. How aful!!
She completely ruined it. That poor grandma.
What a shame. Now, no one who comes after her gets to wear Grandma’s dress. I sure hope she okayed it with her grandma before she ruined it.
My daughter had thought she always wanted to wear her Grandma's dress. I encouraged her to have the fun of trying on different dresses. Of course, she fell in love with one. She instead wore her Grandma's dress at rehearsal.... but left it exactly as it looked when my mom wore her dress. The best part is that she has two daughters and who knows what they may want. My Mom passed last year ... but lived next door to her great grandma ... so she has great love and memories of her.
I would have been shocked if she had grabbed scissors and chopped it up. My mom would have been gracious ... but I'm sure would have been crushed to her soul if her dress had been cut to pieces like this one was.
"For only $100"
Someone doesn't understand how money works.
100 dollars in 1961 are big money
Yeah, $100 back then is like $1000 now.
@@lunabelletheinsaneyep, I just Googled it. $100 in 1961 is worth over $1000 now.
😂 Thank you for this
That’s disrespectful unless she asked grandma in advance if she can cut the dress.
It doesn’t look like her grandmother is upset…
Grandma probably didn’t want to ruin her granddaughter’s wedding day by acting upset. But I bet she was very hurt.
Yeah… it’s extremely disrespectful. She butchered in irreplaceable family heirloom. You can tell grandma’s reaction is fake.
Yes, surely she at least ran it by her mother. I’m sure she had blessing to do whatever she wanted (to go that hardcore with the alterations/butchering)???
Grandmas face when she showed her the dress was like WTF!?
Omg she cut it. I'm glad for her wedding but also glad I'm not the only person that freaked out. I can see refitting it but not cutting it. 😞
How to go from classy to trashy with just one thing...a scissors 😢
The dress would have been perfect left alone and worn at her wedding.
And ruined it
In your opinion.
@@Wildmoonlite of course
No no, it’s absolutely 100% fact that that gorgeous dress was destroyed. She looks like a gaudy amalgamation of a cake pop and a six year old pageant girl.
@@WildmoonliteI’m sorry but there’s no way she didn’t ruin it. That dress was in perfect condition and had been worn from the two previous generations. It has meaning, stories, and love intertwined in the fabric. Instead of keeping it nice for her kids to then have, she turned it into a dress that’s way too short and no one else will want to wear
@@Wildmoonlite in literally everyone’s opinion
Why did she ruin the dress and she said she wanted a family tradition.😒
It would have been better if she hadn't cut it up and just worn it for her wedding. I'm sure her grandma was heartbroken yet had to act happy. Poor woman, I feel so sorry for her 😢! Much love from Utah!❤
She could've easily altered it to make it an A-line gown instead of butchering her grandma's dress like this. How can it now be passed on to anyone else?
That’s what I thought she was going to do. Repurpose it, but not cut it up.
Maybe she’s infertile, and an only child… And was giving the dress a send off as the last time ever to be worn/tradition ended?!?! I would never wish infertility on her, however that scenario makes me feel more comforted about the dress butchering (and poor grandma being alive to witness it).
I don't likw a mean woman being Fertile her children might Inherit that entitlement from their mother@@rainbows_trees_clouds_dais1766
Well, they might be able to salvage some sort of meaning for the dress if a great-granddaughter is an Olympic skater and can use this chopped off dress as her costume in the final performance for the Gold Medal.
She ruined that gorgeous dress
Destroyed a beautiful vintage gown 😢 How sad.
Grandma is not happy she should have asked her permission to cut it into ribbons so disrespectful
She cut it way too short.
I agree. A tea length would have looked nice.
Yes, it looked like a costume. Wrong cut for skirt.
Well her husband won't have to take the dress off at all do it like they did in the old days
If she has a daughter of her own, how will the daughter carry on the family tradition now?
By chopping it off again until it looks like a gymnast outfit.
@@mannys9130
Haha, or lingerie. Then the generation after that just might make it a garter to be worn on the leg then thrown at the wedding.
What a shame the grandma had to actually see the mutilation of her gorgeous dress. She tried to modernize it, and didn’t even succeed at doing it (or hiring it done) well.
Additionally, she didn’t even follow the tradition, as it was not even used for the wedding itself. I can understand choosing to wear it for the rehearsal rather than the wedding day, (if it wasn’t your style) but not altering it more than getting it fitted to her body on top. What a waste!
It will end up in the costume box or donated to the drama department at school.
She obviously only thinks of herself! 🚩🚩🚩
appalling! She ruined the dress! disgusting.
and she ruined it!!!
Shit she wrecked it by cutting it short. I thought she would alter it to fit her for her wedding day so it could keep getting handed down.
I agree.
Looks like what I call a wh*re dress
Should have kept the tradition of wearing that beautiful dress.
It wasn't that she re-purposed the dress. It's simply that she absolutely destroyed the dress, and it wasn't for the wedding, but simply the rehearsal dinner.
Taylor, no honey, just no.
Poor Grandma..I would be crying, bc. she made it look, like a halloween outfit from china😢
Unless you clear something like this with the person first, don't ever do that to somebody else's wedding dress.
You nasty karens are vile. Go away.
If it was gifted to her for her wedding, she can do what she wants.
@@bluescorpion7 Gifting it does not mean you get to ruin it. This is a wedding dress, not a prom dress. And since mom wore it, there is an expectation that the gifting does not include destroying the dress (unless specifically stated otherwise).
My thoughts exactly, ruined. I would’ve been upset
It doesn’t look like her grandmother is upset… Don’t give your dress away or do so with stipulations.
She didn’t give it away. The video says she only let her borrow it. And the grandmother looks like she’s faking a smile after not even recognizing it at first so she doesn’t cry and ruin the wedding.
Sorry..its looks awful 😮
So sad, looks good as it was originally, looks awful cut up . lf it was my grandmother's,Iwould treasure it.
Grandma didn't look happy about it 😮😢
Crap! She ruined it! It looks crappy now. Nothing tradition about tearing it apart and getting rid of most of it!!!
👎Ask permission. And, the design principle of proportion has been totally violated, here.👎
She ruined it. She took a sleeve off and destroyed the skirt.
SHAME on her ruining her Grandmother's dress like that!!! UNBELIEVAABLE
But why?
My grandparents have been together almost 60 years. I hope that one day I can wear her wedding dress as my own to my wedding .❤
This is awful. I would be heart broken.
She didn’t do the dress any justice by cutting it more then in half. It can no longer be passed down as a wedding dress. So that tradition has forever been broken now.
She ruined it!
Nope…ruined the dress.
She destroyed it. Grandma didn’t even recognize it, and when she told her what it used to be you can tell her reaction is super fake.
She butchered a priceless and irreplaceable family heirloom and made it hideous. I hope grandma takes it and her wedding presents back after and makes her pay to have it restored to the best of her ability. 😡
Wow she ruined it. she's too selfish to just wear it and trying to be altruistic so she wore it to something that didn't matter.
Oh. I WANTED to cheer, BUT, what is HER DAUGHTER supposed to do with THAT thing? Sorry, princess, NOT an "honoring" thing. Disappointed.
For a rehearsal dinner?
It looks like a really bad ballerina dress...😭😭😭
In this situation, I would hope she asked for Grandma's blessing before doing this. If the answer was no, you could always get a custom dress made to resemble the original, but these repurposing a generations' old wedding gown that's been carefully preserved for decades seems extremely cringey. I would be devastated.
Ruined the beautiful dress
I would have been absolutely heartbroken had my granddaughter destroyed my wedding dress to make it look like that.
Appalling. Did she confide in no one who could have told her what a bad idea this was?
The fake smile on grandma's face after seeing the ruined dress
She cut it ! 😢😢😢 no! way too short.. it was beautiful 😮
So glad I’m not the only one that was sad about the dress being ruined for the future generations. Unless grandma was ok with it of course.
She destroyed the dress.
When I was engaged, so many people asked me if was going to wear my Mom's wedding dress that my Aunt had also worn. I always asked them if they had seen us. I'm a full 6 inches taller than my Mom and at her wedding time versus mine, I out weighed her by 50 pounds. 😂. She offered to let me wear her veil, but as my wedding and reception were outdoors, I opted not to wear a veil at all. It gets breezy on top of that hill after all.
I would be so mad if my future grand daughter did that oml.
I wish I still had my mom’s wedding dress! She had a beautiful dress from the mid 70s with a beautiful veil! She lost it when she moved to a different state. I know hers was pretty lucky too as my parents will be celebrating their 50th anniversary next year!!! ❤❤❤
OMG!!!! What has she done !!!!!😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
that thing is hideous
My niece did the same thing with her mom’s wedding dress. Had it altered for her rehearsal dinner. Her dad, my brother cried when he saw her in the dress!
😲 What?????
Kudos to Grandma ... you almost didn't look upset when you saw the dress chopped off. I'm not fond of this new trend.
Very nice to " repurpose" the dress and completely trash it. Grandma probably didn't want to flip out at the dinner and make a scene but had a few words to share with Grandpa in the car on the way home.
“Look grandma, I selfishly ruined your treasured wedding dress. Now smile, you’re on camera & everyone is watching” This is unbelievable’ 😳😡
I agree with all the comments, a beautiful dress ruined. She was not following family traditions.
And there the tradition stopped, she decided she would be the last one to wear the grandma’s dress, sad
She ruined that beautiful dress. What an extremely selfish act on the brides part, her grandmother was heartbroken. Just disgusting and unbelievable how she thought only of herself.
I would have been crushed 😢
This is absolutely NOT a wholesome ending
I feel sorry for grandmother, she was terribly sad. This immature bride RUINED the dress, that was a MAN's lack of opinion.
The bump In the rear looks wrong on a short dress
I thought that the original dress was timeless I would have worn it the way it was
Have to say not loving the altered version. Not to mention it didn’t really fit in with the venue. Just glad they are all happy.
I hope she asked her grandmas blessing before tailoring it, I'm sure she did though....well I hope so 😂😂😂
WHYYYYYYY? That is horrible. Why would you cut it. It looks terrible.
Hope grandma asked for it back in original condition.
If I were Grandma, I would have broken down in tears!! How could you cut up that beautiful dress?? The tradition was broken when the sizzors made its first cut. Pitiful……
I'm sure Grandma wasn't too happy seeing her dress destroyed. Can't believe her granddaughter could be so selfish as to destroy something that obviously meant a lot to her and her mother.
I bought my dress for $120 and I was so lucky because it was a one off from the house of Maryvale Mr. John Sydney Australia.😁
I wish I hadn't seen that. That vintage dress now looks cheap and ugly. What a shame.
Bummer
I might do that with my Aunt Cindy's dress but not repurpose it I might wear it to my reception.
What a horrible thing to do to the dress....I would have been devastated if it were mine...
Yes she has butchered the dress!!!
Ugh!
How disrespectful and ignorant 😭
it's way too short, she could have kept the skirt at knee length or ankle length to keep it classy.
No way, tradition lost, what an absolute tragedy for the dress
I’d be so disappointed. Part of the sentimentality of the thing is leaving it as is. Once you change it, it’s not Grandmas anymore. It’s just fabric.
Eλπιζω να κρατησες το υπολοιπο υφασμα ,γιατι πολυ απλα δεν θα ξαναβρεις το ιδιο.....hai from Greece.
She completely destroyed that beautiful family heirloom, I can’t believe anyone would see this as ok?!?
That is so messed up🫢, she cut it too short, surprise grandma I ruined your dress
Omg . The shock . Horrendous thing to do .
Now destned to be left in a bag then maybe worn as a fairy frock at a fancy dress party.
The dress had been beautifully kept too, now it can never be used as a wedding dress again.
She ruined the dress by cutting it up it was beautiful the way it was
I’m confused about the timeline. Grandma married in 61. The mom’s wedding pic looks like she got married in the 70s.
