If the strict cap on the budget was because she truly couldn't afford more than that it would be one thing, but the mom frankly states it's because she's more interested in looking amazing herself than in how her daughter looks or what she wants for her wedding day. Mom is clearly a narcissist and has done things like this to her daughter before. Frankly, Talia's best bet is to cut Mom out completely and pay for her own dress, but we always hope our parents, and moms in particular, will live up to what we wish they were.

it's a holdover from the days of a bride's family paying a dowry in order for the other family to take on the "financial burden" of providing for their daughter. not to mention the only reason she's being such a stinker about the budget is because she's more concerned about her OWN dress. i feel so sorry for that bride having to deal with such a narcissist for a mom.

[@pramaroy5289]

@@dietotaku The mom does come across as a narcissist in so many ways... but that is a separate matter. And it's good to be strict with the budget because if you go over for one thing... you might go over for everything else and be left with debt. At the very least, if the bride is old and mature enough to get married, she should be responsible enough to follow the budget or be able to pay for her own dress if need be.

[@kimberleyslauenwhite9004]

The bride's family paying for the dress is a custom in a lot of families - I was in my 40s when I got married and my parents insisted on paying for my dress. No talking them out of it. :)

[@Sassafrass95]

@@pramaroy5289 I have a feling growing up this mom didn't care about anything in regards to her daughter, so for once she can stop being selfish and give her daughter something she wants and not what the mother wants to live through her daughter

[@josieloveyou2624]

The mom can go dress shopping any day/anytime . Not the day her daughter is wedding dress shopping

[@forme3h]

Wow! The mother though. No mercy and love🤦🏽‍♀️

[@rajishah780]

the moms smile and weird response literally triggered my fight or flight 😭😭if my mom did that and smiled like that i would uninvite her.

[@ozziarni742]

That they should have clarified the budget question is clear, but the mother's reaction was just simply unkind. The mother of the bride ist just not as important as the bride.

[@Yoruake89]

That was the sentence that the mother said, that made me so angry. No it is her daughters and her son-in-laws wedding day. This day will celebrate their love and not the mothers or someone else. For me, it was not about the 200 $ over budget, for me it was about this mother disrespecting and suppressing her daughter the whole time while they visited the bridal shop. My mum would have never done so!

[@gillianbuonanno3211]

Ok, why isn't the bride paying for her dress? This way, she can have what she wants.

[@aurie4894]

My thoughts exactly!!!! When u don't depend on someone else 2 pay 4 something, u have total freedom do get what u want.

[@jemmaj2919]

200 she could have paid, I don't think she liked the dress that much

[@roserain7034]

@@jemmaj2919 Maybe her mood was spoiled from her mom's behavior however, if the dress was as amazing as she think it is, she would pay for it. Then again, I don't really care about my parents opinion 🤣 if I like the dress, I like it so if my mom was like that, I wouldn't care.

[@kittyonpointe2347]

[@aurie4894]

@@kittyonpointe2347 That may be the case & obviously understandable, however if she is going 2 b dependent on someone else 4 funds, she has 2 respect the limitations & budget that it set 4 her & not ask 4 additional funds or automatically expect that they will b given!

[@lway9661]

never forget the episode where a mother was also engaged and wore a wedding dress she chose for the bride and asked everyone what they thought...

[@user-kpkxgtj]

I've just watched that video before this one. She was hands down the worst mother I have ever seen on this show.

[@AFAskygoddess]

The daughter is old enough to pay the difference if she chooses to go over budget. $2,000 is a generous budget for a one day dress.

[@ishanika3038]

I totally agree an adult 'getting married' should be able to pay their expenses if not the whole amount then atleast some amount..

[@ladennayoung2939]

@@ishanika3038 Generally it was tradition for the father of the bride to pay for the wedding. I believe it was because it was the last time he would be taking care of his daughter prior to her getting married. It's not always about whether that person can or can't afford something. And even if someone contribute they should still be respectful to the bride or whatever the case maybe.

[@jamilecerqueira8685]

I couldn’t agree more! 2k for a dress is a generous gift already! Anything above it should be paid by the bride or the groom!

[@Maz-zb9uf]

Your right the worst thing you can do is ask a parent for your dress then they feel they have power over you

[@dianahouk6205]

The mom was going to buy herself a dress. Selfish in every way! She couldnt steal the show, so no one was going to get anything! shame on you. Your antics, and behavior written all over her face were nothing less than disgrace, and sickening. The poor daughter probably wanted to vanish right off the stage. The moment was loss, when selfish mother got up from her chair. Pray she went on to find the most beautiful dress thru her eyes, and grace may her fairytale wedding be all that she dreams 💘

[@s.p.5213]

That Southern "But I'm the mother" thing is truly disgusting. Kandi from RHOA, Black Southerners, White Southerners, all of them, it's SO wrong how they demonstrate their version of "respect your elders".

[@intuicionestudio]

Wow, as a mother I wish my daughter feels extra special on one of the most important days of her life. This mother was terrible, she even looked happy that her daughter was feeling bad and insecure. She should be uninvited, imagine when she has a baby.

[@lahawk2931]

I said the same....mooove far away, because you don't need that energy around your children. You don't need it causing issue with your marriage either.

[@MGongopadhyay]

Honestly!!! I am soooo lucky that I don't have a mom like this one...

[@kmorris2371]

WOW! Mom ruined Talia's moment by being selfish. That is so sad. It's Talia's day NOT her mothers. She looked beautiful in both dresses.

[@jodicrain4500]

I'd let mom have the appointment and reschedule for myself, by myself.

[@lahawk2931]

Good plan. I say most of these shows their entourage is of little help and can be cruel and they'd be better off solo.

[@francesfehrman741]

I would have gotten dressed, and left. Leave her mom sitting there!

[@Flowercr0ne]

"Dress needs embezzlement ..... " yeah, like how you're embezzling away from your daughter's wedding dress shopping event.

[@DyannDrew]

Some mothers really hate on their children. Its sad. But the bride kept her class. So gorgeous

[@tammyg3149]

I have three grown boys and my now daughter in law asked me to go dress shopping with her. We had a blast and found a dress. I wasn't doing anything but supporting my daughter in law. It's HER day, HER dress. How sad for this young bride. I hope her future husband has a spine. He's going to need one🙄

[@lahawk2931]

Yep his future MIL is a bulldog or a bulldozer. Not sure which.

[@seriliaykilel]

I get the feeling deflated because her mom was being overall not fully there for her, but at the same time (1) please don't put brides in dresses over budget without warning them and (2) if you do choose to put on a dress over budget, be prepared to pay for the difference yourself.

[@lahawk2931]

I did think about that, too. They often put them in a dress over budget and then nothing else compares. I saw one of these shows and the dress was $20 if I remember correctly. The dad upped his budget to make his princess happy.

[@lhj276]

Talia is so beautiful and handled her mother's severe narcissism like a person who has endured so much of this it's normal for her. I hope she is okay and gets therapy and finds healing. She seems so sweet and patient and I am so sad that her mother is so self absorbed.

[@wickedone9143]

That is so sad for the bride! Her mother is very selfish & all about herself. I hope the bride gets that dress! She's beautiful in everything she tried on, but her heart was so set on that dress.

[@cw-s3582]

I would be so proud to be this poised, articulate and sweet Bride's mom & share this amazing time in her life... I just cannot understand a Mom so hurtful to her daughter at the price of her ego.. God Bless this lovely Bride & her Groom. PS: move far away from MIL 😉

[@itsnay1ene904]

it doesnt matter if “shes the mother” she had her chance years ago to get married, its her daughters choice not hers, common sense, and for her to even look for a dress for herself it’s disrespectful

[@angelfire67]

Such a nice-looking couple. I hope their life together is a roaring success! As far as that mother is concerned, I just want to slap her silly.

[@donnasheehan8769]

this is like a case study in Narcissistic Parents

[@jackievalladares6783]

If my mom or someone tried to say that they’re just as important and it’s their day too I’d be SICK, if you loved someone so much you’d happily give them all the attention. The mom couldn’t have shopped for her dress after the appointment? The next day? Selfish .

[@lahawk2931]

That's what I said. Even if took a peak and had them hold something for you to try on later, but to select it before the bride and then be smug about.

[@tlwagener9245]

Perfect example of a narcissistic mother. They haunt you. Low contact, then no contact, love.

[@paulinasantiago3965]

Working at David’s bridal.. I’ll always tell the party that after the appointment is over they are more then welcome to look. And I’ll even help them in the next appointment if able to. This is so sad that this happened

One lesson to her mother don't live your dream out of your daughter at all because it's ruinning everything of the wedding and it's not your wedding at all.

[@eringemini7091]

The Mom really was just there to find HER dress! I think the wedding dress was just an afterthought when it came to her daughter!

[@brendasuelong-bryant3855]

Bride needs to pay the difference. She's 29 after all

[@lahawk2931]

Yes, but that is not the point. Your missing the fact that her mother seemed to enjoy telling her no while clutching her own dress. I think one of the other poster hit the nail on the head...she was hoping that they would put her in her dress and "embezzlement" her dress and do a mother daughter piece. After all she and her dress are as important as the bride's. She already tainted the appointment before the price came up by trying to steal the spotlight.

[@DeathByBlonde1]

As the future sister in law, I would have stepped up and said “fine, your mom doesn’t want to I will… I got you girl. Get your dress.”
