The pink dress was like 5% pink, 95% white. Daddy got some issues, it's not his wedding, he's not the one whose gonna be wearing the dress.
Lighting and camera. The dress is probably a light/pastel pink which in certain lighting and camera settings won't really show due to how light the pink is.

Who’s gonna tell him that white dresses only became tradition after queen Victoria decided she wanted to be controversial and wear a color that was worn at funeral to her wedding. Before her most wedding dresses were red or purple.
Black actually. Purple was for royalty only.
And green, apparently, to represent fertility for the bride
Sadly people are ignorant to history
In most Asian cultures, white and blue are associated with death and they represent the soul leaving the body. Red is the favorite for brides, whereas gold and black is acceptable for guests.
@@gnarbeljo8980 sumptuary laws didn't actually mean you weren't ALLOWED to wear a certain color. And the "rule" only really applied to Tyrian Purple. In reality, there would be a fine for wearing clothes outside your rank and many paid the fines a flex saying "I'm so rich, I'll wear whatever I want". The main reason why white dresses became so mainstream was conspicuous consumption. All-white garments were very difficult to maintain.
I'm sorry but the first dress shouldn't exist.
Exactly!!!
Right!! Who designed that hot mess !
At all
The most ugly dress I have ever seen was princess Diana wedding dress,lett forgives me David Emanuel.
That first dress would look totally different on a average sized woman. I don't think Dad sees just how big his little girl is. That second dress was perfect. It hides her tummy and enhanced her curves.
EDIT: QUEEN VICTORIA!!!
Edit: I am aware about the origins of the white dress and many people have already replied telling me abut it
Edit: Please, I'm begging you, it's been months, I know about Queen Victoria
As a Christian, can confirm there is nothing in the Bible that dictates what colour your wedding dress should be. Also as someone who likes pink that dress is barely pink but I'm happy that she loved it.😊
For me it is so strange that He is more worried about the color but He is ok with the neckline!
I think that that neckline is totally inappropriate for a church wedding and He has something to say about the color?
@@BLACHATBLA she can always get the neckline altered but if she doesn't want to then it's her choice and we will never know if it was a mistake or not. It's up to her
Yeah it didn't look pink to me more like ivory.
I’m a Christian and I’m getting married in August and I have a lot of purple in my dress yes it still has a lot of white but there’s also a lot of purple. Also back in the 1800s dresses used to be blue so.
As a Christian myself i agree with it's not in the bible what color dress you wear, but staying a virgin until your married should always be there
The first dress the father picked looked horrible, she looked pregnant in it. Her own pick was way better, she looked so beautiful. In the end of the day, her marriage is not about being conservative, but to be happy and feel good and comfortable in your own skin.
I agree! It did the opposite of what a good dress should do! In her own clothes she looked like she had a medium bust nd smallish waist , in the dress she looked six months gone with no chest. Her mother's face said it all!
That’s because it didn’t fit. It was actually a similar cut as the last dress but the last dress actually fit her
Thats so rude to say what her body looks like in a certain dress
Well said Angelica, well said.
@@Moxxxix a toast to the grooom
Dad: 'I'm okay with her hating her own wedding dress, as long as it follows the traditions *I'm* comfortable with'. That's not a good parent in my book.
Ikr!!
Did you not watch till the end?
@@bbbree1616 Even if the video is watched until the end an opinion can remain the same. She had to try 67 dresses just to please their dad while said parent making extremely heavy comments. Firstly, he was never a bride and never will be so why pretend he knows what it even feels like and secondly it.is.the. BRIDE'S. day. Not her relatives', not her friends' and not her father's either but hers and the groom's. No one else's. It's just an added plus that none of his statements are right.
1. White is NOT the tradicional wedding colour. (other commenters already said how white is originated by Queen Victoria)
2. White is NOT the colour of purity. The colour of purity actually is baby blue because of Saint Maria/ Mary Magdalene. White is the colour of CHASTITY.
3. White as a weddig colour NEVER orginated from the Bible. As far as I know in the Bible no marriages were ever written down. Also the style and colour of the dresses vary from religion to religion. So white is NOT an official colour of marriage either.
@@bbbree1616 the thing is even when you get to the end you have to remember most of these people give in sometimes cuz they’re on tv and because it’s their kids, regardless they sometimes might still be there
White wedding dresses aren't nearly as old a tradition as he thinks they are.
That first dress looks horribleee. She looks pregnant when she isnt.
I said the same thing
Lol true 😂
Trueeeee
oh my goodness she does look pregnant.
Same thoughts 😂
I have advice for dealing with parents like this, for your first pick even if you dont like it pick the exact opposite of whatever your parent wants, if they want white pick red just so you can shock them, then on your second dress pick something you actually like that is less outrageous than the first one, the parent will be relieved and will let you get the second dress.
It’s called the door in the face technique I believe
@@laurens3857 are you forreal i love that term
That works for sales too.
I have better advice; tell them that if they can't support you thay can stay home
Someone on the show did that once. Begged her mom for a red dress and then "settled" on a more traditional one.
Dad wearing a fuchsia shirt gets mad about a dress that is BARELY pink.
Right! 8 could say to this “ purity” dad… pink for a man means that you are gay and not a real man”
I LITERALLY SAID THAT TOO
Hahaha
*reads comments about the first dress*
Me: is it that bad?
*she puts on the first dress*
Me: oh my goddddddd😶
🤣
Same loiil
😂
It was literally the ugliest dress I have ever seen on the show
@@mrcleeves7106 you haven’t seen the one that someone’s conservative grandma made them wear. It was like a turtleneck. Truly horrendous
The whole “purity” thing her dad is obsessed with is just gross.
Imagine how stressed out hes gonna be on her wedding night and during the honeymoon 😂
i swear. All men in general who preach this whole purity bullshit and call sex and dating as uncultured, then proceed to jack off to porn need to be banished.
Did he suggest that white wedding dress are Biblical? The tradition of white wedding dresses began with Queen Victoria, and only because white (undyed) fabric was cheaper!
@@sterjulie Actually white was the most expensive colour short of gold or silver. White was very difficult to keep clean and white dresses could hardly be reworn as often as black or dark ones. Women, who had to work for a living, could usually not afford the extra dress and wore the same dark dress to church on Sunday for years to come.
when is she going to tell him she is already pregnant?
i don’t understand why someone from literally every single entourage acts like it’s their wedding-
why bring that many people anyway? id probably just bring two rly good friends. tf i need everyoen elses opinion for? im the one wearing it so fuck what everyone else thinks. thats their problem
@@MsDudette21 exactly
@@MsDudette21 for real when i bought my wedding dress.. I went with my mother in law and sister in law because i knew they would like anything i feel comfortable in... Who would even want 10 people sitting there and telling you what your dress has to be like
not all of them . a woman brought 20 family members to her bridal appointment and they all was supportive , no negativity or anything
It’s all for the show.
The dress isn't even that pink. I don't understand why her dad is so against it. That is the mildest pink on earth. The dress looked nice on her too. I did like the last dress best on her though
It's making me question if the color settings on my screen are off. The "pink" dress looks champagne/has major yellow undertones on my screen.
Plus white was for funerals before Queen Victoria populaurizd iy
I’m guessing the camera didn’t capture it. It’s more of a off white color lol
It's probably scripted drama. Notice how many times they replay the dramatic bits.
The last dress was the prettiest imo
They should have put her in a Pinina Tornai dress and Dad would have been SCREAMING for the “pink” dress 😂😂😂
Only Klienfeld carries Pnina.
@@caroldehaven3847 are you talking about as in all Bridal shops in the USA or just the East Coast? Because few other SYTTD shops around the world have her gowns
@@Herbal_lotus I thought she was exclusive to kleinfelds. maybe I am mistaken.
@@caroldehaven3847 you’re good! Her dresses are carried in bridal shops all over, Canada, UK, Italy, Mexico, USA, Austria, China, Ireland ect. I think in the USA she’s able to be more hands on with the brides/ her dresses at Kleinfields and that’s why we see both her and her designs more there.
I don’t think Lori carries those trashy Tornai dresses.
Ugh.
Most of them look like stripper costumes
The fact that he’s more preoccupied with his perception of his daughter’s virginity instead of her happiness is honestly enraging.
its enraging and all to common. backwards thinking.
Controlling father
I disagree
Good to hear Patricia. Hopefully whatever children you have are fully aware that your obsession with their virginity surpasses your concern for their wellbeing, and that they are sensible enough to cut you off for it.
@@RyuTama42 Nope, all my children love me and have also chosen to raise their own children the same way. :)
He says "purity" and "tradition", what he means is CONTROL.
Exactly. It’s just code for male supremacy and control
I know the chastity belt thing is a joke but no lie, men who are obsessed with their daughter's sex lives are creepy af.
IKR it’s so weird
Facts. It's so weird 💯💯💯
It's a matter of family honor, especially in churchgoing families- "as for me and my house"..... A man who has a hoe for a daughter is viewed as a morally failing dad.
@@christinebutler7630 and what about the son? also its 2021 and she's an adult. its naive to think your adult kids havent had sexual experience at some point. id never consider what a dad thinks when it comes to what im wearing. old men dont know shit about womens clothing. hes a close minded old man, not a fashion designer.
@@christinebutler7630 That entire thought process sounds beyond antiquated & absurd. A man who has a "hoe" for a daughter - she's having sex with sons who aren't being held to the same accountability. It's ALL social constructs anyway.
I realize everyone is different but for me, I would never bring a large group to my dress shopping. My mama and sister are all I need. My dad passed away when I was 15 but if he was here, I would want him to see me when he walked me down the isle.
Hi pretty lady. How are you doing today? And how is the father and the weather over there???
The whole Biblical thing he brought up? Err, no, papa. The white dress started in England.
And only in the 19th century too
I believe Queen Victoria was the the trend setter of the white gown
That may be so but purity is symbolised as white through the scriptures. I agree- the dress colour shouldn't matter however the bride of Christ wears pure white....hence his fascination with white. She looked beautiful and I like her choice :)
💀💀😭 stawp hahahah
I know right, blue was associated with the Virgin Mary, not white
Am I color blind??? I don't see anything pink except dad's shirt.
Me too lol
Its technically blush which is more like a champagny-ivory tone.
That was my thought when I first saw it--apparently it was an extremely soft shade that looked white/ivory on camera.
@biyya khan dead lol even i don't see🤣
me too😆
"It's not really my forte". Well Dad, it's not your wedding.
Her dad is so mad about a dress that litterally isn't pink
The pink is sooo muted .... I hoped they show us some pictures from the wedding. The upper part needs some work to fit ;)
I didn’t even realize that the pink dress was pink
Like reading all these comments about dad not liking pink I was half expecting hot pink dress xD
That's exactly my thought.😁
Not compared to his SHIRT, at any rate. Lol
I am a Christian. I am modest, pretty traditional, all of that. He was being stupid. Its not his wedding, and that dress looked amazing on her.
plus how tf is purity represented by white. he’s treating his daughter like she’s stained black after getting married
...and you're MODEST?
@@horseman4now their nothing that is not modest with any colors ! queen Victoria had a white dress not because she was virgin (if she even was virgin ! ) but because she could afford it and make a fashion statement in history of Royalty ! It the church that are been a creep with Victoria and claim purity because it was white not the intention of Victoria.
I ran straight to the comments and y’all didn’t disappoint. Got a laugh and a history lesson all in one.
i find it ironic that the dad doesn’t want her to wear a pink dress but he’s wearing a pink shirt 💀
Lmfao. Exactly. Wtf is he using for a brain
I haven’t seen the first dress yet, but the way you guys are describing it omg.
Edit: it was horrible.
lol literally me reading the comments then after seeing the first dress-
Yeah, looked like a candy wrap ... second was great!
When she came out I was like omg!!! No!!!
Same here hahHhaha
It looked like a giant bkanket around her
I don't care if you're her father, mother, sister, whatever, I HATE when someone other than the bride thinks they get to say "NO" to a dress a bride loves.
UNLESS there is a budget issue and someone other than the bride is paying for it.
@@arianekelly2633 Then they should have an amount agreed on, and what the bride chooses within that amount is her choice only.
Or try to say yes to a dress that makes the bride look like she's wearing a bedazzled white kitchen trash bag lol
she's gorgeous and the 'pink' dress fits her so well- the white ballgown also complimented her well, but you could tell how much she loved the pink. it's very fitting for her. anyone have updates on what she wore to the wedding?
She chose the last dress did you finish the video lol?
@@alaura.444 I lot of brides from SYTTD don't actually wear their 'yes' dress to their wedding! I was just wondering if she wore the dress here or chose something different :]
"Purity is in your heart not in the color of your dress"
Touched my heart ❤️
naw his obsession with her "purity" was creepy
me too!!
@@maribeld84 same..the concept of purity..is creepy..
@@maribeld84 He wasn't obsessed with HER purity clearly, did you see all the boobs, he was rudely obsessed with tradition and "looking pure" which isn't the same as actually caring if she's pure.
@@kellylee9892 she can be pure even wearing a pink dress
“Purity is in your heart, and not in the color of your dress very well said dad!” he saw how much that his daughter wanted that beautiful gown and he compromised, which is wonderful!🥰💖🌸🌷
She looked beautiful in the pink dress...I could definitely see her personality shine through. I'm so glad that her Dad came around when he saw how happy she was.
Why don’t we talk about how her last name is ‘Potter’
A new book series has arrived ‘Lauren Potter: And Her Conservative Father’
This one made me cry, her dad looks like my dad who passed years ago. Bless his heart for coming around and doing the right thing!
Man I didn't think that first dress could get any worse and then I see the back 💀
The dad said “biblical” and “white wedding dress” in the same sentence and it absolutely sent me
Im glad that Laurens dad came round to the dress and realized that purity is in the heart and not in the color of a dress.
Me:*praying that there is someone named Harry in her family*
Same😅
Lol
Why
@@yoshikakafley9065 potter
Ah yes, the 180 year tradition of white dresses, so biblical 😒🙄🤦♀️
Was wrong with that?
Please have some respect.
@@edithgarcia6004 he's acting like it's some ancient biblical decree that white dresses mean purity, they don't. It was a fad started by Queen Victoria and all the posh people copying her, prior to that women just got married in their best dress, regardless of the colour.
@@rivertam7827 actually it is biblical because in the Bible white represents pureness. For example, before Adam and Eve committed a sin, they used to live in orchard of eden and they had a light that covered their nude. But when they sinned, then the light was taken from then and they realize they were naked. Meaning they were not pure anymore so the light was taken away. Also in Revelation it talks about the second coming of Christ and it says that when he comes for us we are going to be transformed and we are going to wear white tunics. So when a bride wears white and presents herself to the groom it means that she is pure. (White can represent being virgin)
@@edithgarcia6004 BLUE represents pureness. Not white.
When I saw her in the “pink” dress that was hardly that pink, I literally just said Wow. That dress is HER.
I love the paddle system. The bride's like "my dress picking day will not be chaotic "😂😂😂
“My decision would be that I would prefer the white-“
Sir, are you the one wearing it? No? Then it’s not your decision.
He paid for it is my guess.
i literally started crying when she put on that second dress, it fit her whole style and personality so beautifully and perfectly. she looked like a princess and I was so happy for her and the fact that her own father couldn't see that is infinitely saddening
Oh please 🙄
She looked even bigger than she needed to be.
What a great Dad! He realized purity is in the heart, not the color of a dress. The dress was perfect for the beautiful bride.
*everyone hating on the first dress*
Me: is cant be THAT bad-
*sees the dress*
Me: nvm
She looks AMAZING in that “pink” dress!!!!!!
A M A Z I N G.
I’m so glad her father pulled through oh my god. 😭😭😭😭😭😭 I’m absolutely crying at his statements and change of heart!!!!
That dress was perfect for her, I'm glad she said yes to it :D
If I was that bride I wouldn't even step out in that first dress I never thought a wedding dress could look so ugly omg
Why is the Atlanta store stuck in the early 2010's...upload recent episodes guys....the dresses are all repeated and look so dated...
I think there must be some kind of licensing issue or something.
These are not new episodes. In the newer episodes I believe Lori has longer hair
“That’s not really my forte”
I’m sorry sir I don’t remember this being your wedding
Noone:
Litterly noone:
Her dad -don't chosse pink dress
**Also dad wearing pink shirt**
Yay Dad!!
Thats her dress.....she was glowing in it!!
In the first dress she looked like she's pregnant 😂
@@goskaes5468 I know riiiiight!! Me tooooo.. IT'S PERFECT
@Gael ??
@Gael Why?
@@mpl8680 im not. Every single body type is beautiful in its own way. My comment was on the dress that made her look like she's pregnant! That's what I meant..
@@sofiabenayad2 i keep on seeing comments like urs then I go to the replies and there are ppl saying not to say mean things about her bodie and it's annoying cuz ur not saying anything mean about her bodie u literally said she looks perfect in the second one I don't understand how they don't get that ur saying it's the dress that's not nice and that it doesn't suit her not her bodie
Is it me or Atlanta's dresses all kinda look alike?like not 'look alike' look alike, just i see don't see any variations in designs like UK or Kleinfield?
These are very old episodes from like 2009-11 of Atlanta which is why they are very tacky and all similar, the newer episodes from 2019 with a lot more variation have not been uploaded here yet. The UK and Kleinfeld episodes are recent so their collections are modern and much better
Still waiting on the newer episodes 😩
I’m considered conservative and my wedding dress wasn’t even white… haha it was an olive ivory tone. 😂 it was beautiful and I still love it to this day almost 7 years later ❤️❤️
The way this belts on the first dress are placed look like it’s for a pregnant woman 😂
“Traditional”=“controlling”
"conserative"="misogynistic"
i dont get why the parents have so much voice in what she should get? bro you had your moment, let HER shine
Mama thank you for laughing at hubby's choice! Lol
She KNEW that her daughter hated it!
Why is he making such a big deal about that dress being "pink", that dress is so close to white you couldn't wear that color to someone else's wedding without being mocked.
I’m glad she stuck with the second dress it seeing her so exited about it and loving it so much warmed my heart
The father is gross. It’s just a damn dress which she looks absolutely stunning in. Take a back seat and let your beautiful daughter have her moment and choose whatever dress pleases her.
Why is no one talking about how supportive and cute the mom is!!!🥺🥺🤩🤩
The pink one was so much more flattering on her than the other ones.
I love how he said yes when he agreed that it looked horrible on her😂
All those dresses fit the ladies so perfectly! I really liked that last one, at the church, too. Suited her perfectly!
I really wish designers would make plus sized samples, it’s so hard to “imagine “ how it would look “if” it fit properly. 😢
But I mean, that's blush rather than pink, right? If they hadn't pointed it out I wouldn't have noticed that it was anything other than 'off-white'
*Me seeing the first dress
"Are they really make a dress like that?!" 😐
😂
Thanks DAD OF THE YEAR
The second gown was beautiful,better than the third gown
What is it with the bride's parents feeling like she has to please them? Since when do the parents get the final say in the dress? It should be about what the bride wants herself, not what the parents want.
Why did they show a different couple getting married at the end!?
Omg thank you! Why is no one talking about that!
What that daddy said at the end and I quote, “purity is in the heart, not in the colour of your dress” made me so happy ♥️♥️
SHE LOOKS AMAZING!
Amused that Dad is perturbed by a barely-pink shade, but not the sweater-puppies on display.
Omfg the first dress. I cannot believe she even put it on
Lauren's dress is beautiful. She is falling out of it. Hopefully alterations help. She is so happy in it!
I’m in love with the second dress. It’s so her and so fun
This makes me feel so lucky, I tried on a black dress just for the fun of it and ended up falling in love. It's a black lace ballgown with a shampagin underskirt and my parents ts along with in laws loved the dress
The dad had a whole character growth arc ahhaha
He is a traditional conservative & totally against white but seems okay with her ta-tas bursting out. 🤦🏻♀️ those “conservative” daddies are not very intelligent!
Btw. I think she looks great in her barely pink dress! Once it is sized correctly!
I find it hilarious that white is considered so pure when in some cultures it's seen as death
Man wearing pink (a color recently gaining acceptance for males) refuses pinkish white for daughter? Such condemnation begs the question, "What's in your closet, Sir?"
2:16....white wedding dresses are not mentioned in the Bible. Queen Victoria popularized (but did not invent) white wedding dresses at her 1840 wedding to Prince Albert.
The corset look is flattering on her - dress 3 .
The dress she chose looks AMAZING on her!!! So glad she chose that one!!!
What the hell is he talking about purity? What century is he living in?
He is needs to have a seat and support her in what she likes.
"Traditional white" really only dates back to 1840, because Queen Victoria wore a white gown on her wedding day - it became a "trend" not a tradition. It had nothing to do with virginity or any other bullcrap - she happened to wear a lot of white, it was a fashion trend at the time, it showed how rich you were because you had sevants to continually wash everything and keep it white. For eons Blue was the orginal "Traditional Purity color" because the sky is blue and heaven is there. For centuries most women wore a very nice/fancy dress and "traditionally" it was the dress they wore to church every Sunday for the first year of their marriage. For a full spin around, in some Asian cultures white is the color of Death and would never be worn for a wedding.
The fact that HIS the one wearing pink...
the veil saves the day once again~
OMG! She looked amazing in that pink (or champaign?) dress! 😍
I'm so glad this bride was putting her foot down with her dad every time she came out in a dress
bride: omg I love this pink dress!
dad in pink: no
"Purity"
Lol in my religion and tradition we wear white on funerals
Dad: it's pink.
me: look who is wearing pink
Dad came around at the end 😊
I hope she names her child harry if she ever has a kid 🙂
Yaassssss
She will probably take her husband's last name.
It was great to see how the Dad came around. Good for him. And the bride looks beautiful in that dress!!
Hi pretty lady. How are you doing today? And how is the father and the weather over there???
Am I the only one who finds the idea of a huge entourage weird? Don’t you want your dress to be a surprise to guests at the wedding? If you need a lot of people to help you make a decision, and can’t make a decision for yourself, maybe you need to rethink getting married.
Bit harsh
