Brides Entourage Vs. Her: Red or Pink Lehenga! Nazranaa Diaries S5E8

[@debbieslone5558]

just a little sad that she didn't get to try the pinks that she obviously loved for her own wedding. 😥

[@tatianaragland4007]

I agree! Her family convinced her to not follow her heart. Its sad how alot of families be treating them and just be taking it. I couldn't cause wouldnt have invited them in the first place and if I did I would have been cursed them out. Especially Debbie's ass! Its not her damn day! 👎🏽

[@angelawilliams8494]

This was moms and aunties know best and tradition is best. She was always going to pick red.

[@tatianaragland4007]

@@angelawilliams8494 traditions are fine But tradition isn't what she wanted! They forced her into something she didn't want which is isn't okay. It is her wedding day Not theirs! Also now she ended up looking like every other bride known to man wearing red 🤦🏽‍♀️

[@dixiechicken2643]

@@tatianaragland4007 This is no different than watching other bridal shows, where the mother wants the daughter to wear white. She went into this feeling, perfectly fine with trying on, then picking the red. They weren't pushy or nasty about it. Hopefully, you treat your mom and grandmother, better than you suggest, she do.

[@tatianaragland4007]

@@dixiechicken2643 yes it is the same and still feel the same way about that too. Either way the bride should be the focus and her happiest should come first! Not mom, not aunt, not the friends, nobody but her own opinions should matter. Them blocking her from even trying the dress on was not okay. It was giving alot of peer pressure. She didn't even get a chance to fully enjoy her time cause of their opinions! 🤦🏽‍♀️

[@saraasadi8602]

She brought someone to back her up, and no one backed her up 😢 She seemed to be a people pleaser and didn't see a chance to even try any other color. The pictures of the wedding looked great ❤️

[@chocolateghost]

Really, would the world have ended if she tried on a pink outfit? The red was beautiful but she looked like every other bride.

[@kathygreenys4294]

I'm disappointed that the bride couldn't decide her own outfit.

[@FlashintheBand86]

I wish she had at least tried on one of the other outfits to make sure the red was the one she really wanted. She seemed happy but really gave in to her group's wishes.

[@entitykey9844]

A red outift with pink flowers would have been perfect.

[@jadeh2699]

That's exactly what I was thinking. Just mix the red and pink and everyone is happy.

[@keithgiblin2636]

Yes; why didn't Nazranaa do that when there are so many options available? I feel that even Shea was not being particularly helpful to the bride.

[@shehnazahmad5213]

​@@keithgiblin2636I agree with you. Sorry but Shia was lazzy on this one. She wanted a easy sell. Its an experience for her. She is getting married. The least try 3. Would be ok. My thoughts.

[@blueice011]

I understand the point of this episode and I'm always in favor of good traditional style. Since we have one bride per episode now, it would be lovely though if they could at least try on few more options so that we can indulge in beauty of Nazranaa outfits. Perhaps just a little more outfit and jewelry modeling instead of entourage and bride's long dwelling on the same opinion. Great job, Nazranaa!

[@danahickman5716]

It's so sad. They wanted traditional red but said she could try on other colors. Then they rejected everything before she could even try them on. Though she ended up looking beautiful, I just wish she was able to see her original vision before giving in.

[@Jules1280]

I would love to see more brides & grooms again getting their matching outfits. Also, I would love to see a bride pick a more modern outfit, like the one shoulder you have that is behind the couch that the family/friends sit on. SUGGESTION: When a bride tries on the first one and everyone thinks it's the one. Tell them that this is one "the one to beat". That way she can experience more. I felt like this poor bride was pushed by her aunt, mom & grandmother. You have to be for the bride and help her see her vision. Cheers!

[@tanyasinha3635]

Honestly I feel the style in this show is a bit behind the trends in India

[@exxtraagyaanofficial10m36]

So true. In Chandni Chowk they will get so many varieties and more beautiful lehengas at 1/5 of this price.

[@shwetagurung3683]

[@vandanasukhija2174]

It's truly fascinating to see how Indians overseas always tend to pick up tacky outfits when it comes to traditional outfits. It's like they are stuck in the times & fashion from when their first gen moved abroad.

[@pratspathak8003]

Yeah absolutely true, the styles are way behind the Indian trends.

[@jennytillery6408]

I wanted to see her in pinks, any color really, just to admire the beauty of the outfits. She looked so lovely, a beautiful bride! Blessings!

[@trayciepitcher3098]

The problem was she kept on asking them what they thought,Who cares what they think. It's Your wedding. You should have tried on pink. Stand up for yourself.

[@kookieee211]

[@keithgiblin2636]

[@incubusk8r]

It's fascinating to observe the cultural differences between the West and India. Western societies tend to prioritize individualism, which is deeply ingrained in their values. In contrast, Indian culture places a strong emphasis on the collective, valuing the group over the individual. Neither approach is inherently right or wrong, but each has its own set of consequences, both positive and negative. From an individualistic standpoint, certain group-oriented practices may seem incomprehensible, yet they offer a strong support system in times of need, emphasizing the importance of collective decision-making. Over the past two centuries, Western culture has exerted significant influence globally, becoming aspirational and gradually spreading to other parts of the world. However, as the West's influence wanes, it prompts us to consider what cultural and social norms will shape our future. It's an intriguing reflection on how cultural dynamics evolve and intersect on a global scale.

I feel so happy for this bride! She kept an open mind, and although she considered the pink, decided nothing could beat the red. I t also seemed important to her that another person could wear pink, but no one could wear red. She was stunning!!

[@ladybird9397]

Lots of Indian Brides these days wear various shades of pink and fushia you will still look like a bride with all your glamorous jewellery on. People are too stuck in the past.

I like the magenta pink but not with green. I hope she at least tried a pink one. That red is meh, options, i wanted see her in options.

[@irishis3]

Her mother and grandma were both wearing pink and the bridesmaids and Debbie were all in green. She was bulldozed by busy body family not even her cousin supported her wishes.

[@reginaditt128]

I love that shade of red ♥️ It's not like all of the other ones I've seen on the show. She is absolutely stunning.❤

[@mesquitemagic]

It helps that she's so beautiful. Anything would be amazing in her.

[@rosemariediamond5948]

It’s a shame she didn’t even get to see more pink outfits. I know about tradition but she’s an individual. From experience I know even old fashioned Italian nonnas and mamas let the brides pick a color like blush or accents of color

[@KyleighRoss]

The pink would have been gorgeous with her decore and her bridesmaids and the groom with his skin tone could have done a sherwani with a gold base and pink accents or even the reverse and they would have matched beautifully! Bride is a people pleaser and didn't fight hard enough for what she wanted she folded the moment any of them said they didn't like something at least that how they presented it because to be honest I feel like she was always going to get the red outfit but they had to go through the rigamarole for the sake of the show.

[@beingMarie]

I wish the bride would have at least tried on one pink dress to see if what she imagined her wedding to be, is in front of her. Regardless, the red looks amazing on her and she’s so beautiful.

[@siameseire]

What a sweet woman the bride is. May she get plenty of what she likes, in her life. 💛

[@eb8601]

Gorgeous bride❤️ that jewelry is stunning as well! I was hoping she’d at least try something red with pink in it as a compromise but her family was dead set on their own vision. I hope the bride was still happy with their choice for her. As a long time viewer- I have a little bit of constructive feedback for y’all: it would be really cool to see an episode with sari styles. Especially the more modern saris😍 Everyone seems to lean towards lehengas, which are beautiful too, but just to see some variation would be nice. Or even an episode focusing on bridesmaids outfits. I remember seeing one episode with 3 bridesmaids dress shopping together and it was really cool to see different but complimentary styles in different price points. Also a great way to showcase the array of designs you have available:) I love seeing y’all grow in your creativity and wish you continuous growth and prosperity✌🏽

[@entitykey9844]

You should have showed her another pink outfit when they didn't like the first one.

[@wildflower1397]

The red was stunning on her, and the gold and silver floral pattern suited her so well! I usually prefer the other colors, especially for young ladies that want something less traditional. However, this particular red made her glow beautifully.

[@bettyrubble9420]

The shop has all these beautiful, beautiful dresses on display and I never see anyone try them on 😢. It’s always the same, red, red, red.

[@ZombieMeow]

I kinda hate how her family is pushing her to wear what they want for her wedding. She's obviously not happy with the Red

[@MrsBrit1]

I just love watching a bride being bullied out of even TRYING what she wanted......not!! I'm glad she likes the red and it is beautiful, but to not even get to TRY the others because the family bullied her out of liking them is just rude.

[@51Saffron]

I use to date an Indian guy, in the west, and his whole family were bullies and domineering. Some of his siblings did whatever the parents said, and decided lots of things for them. Needless to say our relationship didn't last. I respected their customs and culture, but not being mean.

[@zainabfirdos6557]

Oh she should have tried the pink would be no harm when you've come this far.

[@idharudhar5985]

Shia said this is traditional red but it is different with gold and silver..... to me all reds look the same no matter what design or embellishment it has because the red is so bold and strong color that the red just stands out and it becomes just another TRADITIONAL RED dress. Those who work with material all the time, it may appear different but to us who just see them only at weddings can't tell one red from another - maybe bright red and dark red is all we can differentiate. Did they not have another chair to squeeze all four ladies on one couch--- it didn't seem very comfortable for the entourage. 🙂

[@incubusk8r]

"To me all reds look the same no matter what design or embellishment." You might want to consider getting your eyes checked. Seriously, I'm not joking. The number of cones and rods in your eyes determines how many colors you can perceive and differentiate between similar shades. This can be influenced by genetics, trauma, or just sheer luck, leading to variations in the quantity of cones and rods. Interestingly, women tend to have more cones and rods than men, which allows them to distinguish between colours like fuchsia pink and hot pink more easily.

[@cookiegirl2cookie197]

All those red outfits look so similar. They want to look different from anybody else but they still end up looking very similar.

[@maryannedelaney]

She looks stunning. I always look forward to seeing the wedding pictures.

[@jewel65]

She should have been able to try pink. The staff should have backed her up.

[@melisaprietoaboitiz7184]

[@LanguageExpert-hg8do]

This season is not going very well .... All the lahengas are old fashioned and every episode looks so scripted that it feels cringy af !

[@jay5474]

I wanted her to try that pink, and her mom had the same pink color on.

[@belmarmom]

There comes a point where you have to stand up for yourself. If you're old enough to get married you're old enough to choose YOUR wedding outfit. Stop asking everyone what they think, it's your wedding not theirs. Chrissy must not be a good lawyer if she can't back up her client/friend. She's there to help her friend choose the lehenga she wants. She's not there to side with the others. Did Aunt Debbie really have to be so pushy? Let the bride decide what she wants to wear to her wedding. Jeez.

[@damealeta3541]

I've missed seeing these videos. Have subscribed so I don't miss them any more!

[@SCID2008]

This has to be the worst I've seen. She didn't have a chance to choose anything at all for herself. I hate manipulation. They remembered she didn't want elephants but she couldn't remember that she didn't want red? Ugh.

[@aartiwolenski1368]

IMO, sparkles look great in person, in a brightly lit room. But, those sparkles wash out in photos. Embroidery pops in pics, so the best outfits have a mix of both IMO. Other elements that don't photograph well are netting, lace, and super delicate elements. I always tell friends to take pics while you are trying on the outfit (not with a camera phone bc those and inbuilt filters are not on professional cameras) and see if they like it.

[@KateStealth]

She was gorgeous. The jewelry designer is coming out of her shell. I like Shia is letting her do more.

[@Real-housewives-Wakanda]

What a gorgeous bride! I love the wedding photos at the end ❤️

[@NishaKumari-fw8xi]

Red lehengas with only golds and silvers are just so common now. I'm imagining if a crimson red lehenga exists with a lot of colorful elements like blue sparkly peacock on it or maybe orange and pinks florals with heavy tone to tone swarovskis and crystals and green leafy patterns too and other colors.. A unique designer blouse ehich has danglers and cutouts and full sleeves and a contrasty pink dupatta..I mean something designer. These red n gold lehengas are just so everywhere.
