I hate when a bride says she loves the dress, and someone in the entourage says 'its not you'. Like actually.... SHE LIKES IT

[carmenmiranda]

Bride loves all dresses she tried on and she looks amazing in all of them.

[georginasmith]

the bride's mum is giving off vibes because she is crushingly hurt that she didn't get to see her daughter get married.

Unlimited budget - Great! Let's start with the most expensive and horrendous dress by Pnina 💁‍♀️

[taniadablaing]

Mom is a bundle of sadness and hurt. No matter what they do going forward, mom will carry that hurt with her.

[charisamartin]

Awww... Poor Mom. She definitely had her heart broken, and it shows. ❤️

This girl can wear a trash bag and still look beautiful. I mean, she is gorgeous. And her mom is really pretty too

[chericoffman]

I can understand Mom’s disappointment, but ultimately if it’s what she wants and she’s happy, then that’s good. Mom isn’t going to like anything that isn’t an actual wedding ceremony. The bride can pull off any gown.

[gloryakiepper]

Lauren is is beautiful in any dress. I understand why her mom was hurt because wasn't a part of her wedding in Italy. I wonder why she had three neighbors with her and no other family members. That could have been a reason to elope. What is done is done. You cannot change the past. You can validate the party dress with your mom.

If you have an unlimited budget, fly to Lancashire and let Gok pick a dress for you

[lindaalexander]

Randy is a freaking awesome family counselor!!!

[LaMaiStyle]

Nobody walks into the car dealership, hair salon, open houses, and jewelry store to announce “I have an unlimited budget”. Even rich people like to get a deal and by saying “unlimited budget” makes the buyer lose leverage.

[ellieandronansvlogs]

I can see why the mom can’t accept most dresses. She missed her daughters wedding and that’s what every mom dreams of, seeing their child get married to someone they love.

i have a sister that had a planned elopement and didn't invite anyone in the family. she then had the audacity to be mad that no one in the family gave her wedding gifts... ya know to the wedding we weren't invited to lol
so sure, as an adult you get to make those decisions but you also have to deal with the consequences of that decision and one of those consequences is a lot of hurt feelings, resentment and destroyed relationships. Lauren is well within her right to elope instead of have a wedding but her mom is also very much entitled to her feelings and hurt at being excluded from such an important life event. regardless of the reasons that is a wedge in their relationship that won't easily be removed.

[BasicYTHandle]

My mom's side of the family is geographically divided on west coast & east coast (USA). A relative was married on the west coast w/reception, then repeated vows & had a 2nd reception for east coast family. She/attendants/moms wore same dresses - no problem. If her mom likes original wedding dress, why not wear that one (then, if Lauren wants, she can change midway to a new "party" dress that is not necessarily a wedding gown, w/out veil)?

[nancemb]

I'm confused, she eloped, got married in a gorgeous dress, so why would anyone buy another wedding dress if she's already married?

[elaineroth]

Mum is very hurt. Shame you can almost feel it.

[Luckybird]

“I have a good relationship with my mom” not anymore you don’t.

[paulaajohnson]

With an unlimited budget, and unless they totally hate each other, she should have taken her mother and very close immediate family to the wedding in Italy.

I wouldn't give the selfish bride a plugged nickel, or pay her the compliment of going to her cattle call US reception after the fact. Something tells me the marriage won't last.

[zabindhanji]

There was nothing special about the dress that she chose, and most of the dresses she tried on. More money doesn't equate to style and beauty. They were mostly see-through show-girl dresses. You can have sexy and sophisticated. I really appreciate how Randy got to the core of the matter and suggested the small ceremony at the reception in the original dress so that her Mum felt part of the wedding.
