"May the best mom win!" is a terrible thing to say---especially when there are 2 cultures involved! It's cringeworthy at any time.

[@annamariaayyad2891]

I agree. The best choice would have been a mix to show both cultures.

[@GauriV297991]

I couldn't agree more. It's all about creating more drama n TRPs.

[@2ndhandSue]

It's a horrible way for these young people to start out married life - with their mothers pitted against each other in a "contest" where ONE of them will win the right to organize the wedding and the other becomes an "assistant". I realize that the couple gets their wedding for free by agreeing to be on this show, but not even to save money would I do something like this. Especially when it involves two cultures - other than the lengas and the henna, what was there of the Indian culture in this ceremony? And the way Crystalline's mother talked to Jin's mother when they shopped and looked for things was so disrespectful. I think instead of giving the "win" to one mother's entire vision, they should change the show to have each mother create a "vision" that involves both cultures, both religions, if there is more than one. The vision that captures the best of each culture and religion should be the one they go with, and both mothers be "winners", having similar amounts of say in what's chosen in the end.

It was pretty clear from the finished product she was more than fair. She picked the ceremony lengenga for pity’s sake. She just didn’t want everything Indian like the Grooms mother. It’s obvious given her daughter is half Indian (her mother was married to a Sikh 🤨) that she doesn’t have a problem with the culture. Stop trying to make a mountain out of a molehill.

Love surrender (i believe that’s her name. Hope I’m saying it right.) she gives me full on traditional Indian auntie vibes. Her smile and humor are amazing. I would love her as my mother in law. She makes me laugh! She’s got such a warm vibe💛

[@mamjohnson404]

Thank god….. I did plan my own wedding, my own way…………….Never let such a important day in others hands…….Not nice to put mothers against each others……….

[@TJWC]

And I certainly don't like the idea of this white woman snapping that "she's the boss" and telling his mother to push the cart. I can't stand that optic. Ugh!!!

[@nidhichaurasia9893]

Why can't they just add both wedding ceremony like from indian side just add other ceremonies like haldi, sangeet, mehedi and from other side marriage at church and after everything just perform a small ritual by hindu/sikh priest of blessings to this couple. That's all why making this a drama.

[@animallover365m9]

First of all the brides mother is extremely rude and disrespectful towards his mother and the bride can’t call an Indian mother in law by name. Atleast Aunty until they are married. Seeing how close he is to his mother I don’t see this working out do you guys?

[@AlyKat.]

Also "I don't like red" LOL she's wearing red

[@sophia.j.]

I absolutely love how she did the lehenga for the ceremony and reception dresses this is amazing the indian touches are just everything

[@surgigi1582]

Sorry, but the groom's mom was so difficult to deal with, definitely not a person I want to be around or give permission to plan my wedding. She clearly lost the competition, that means the bride clearly indicated that she wanted a white gown with a white theme, but she couldn't respect that and clearly did not know what being an assistant means. At the end she got what she wanted, 400 guests, the traditional dress, smh, what a mess.

[@clareshaughnessy2745]

Jeez, the word compromise obviously doesn’t appear in either woman’s vocabulary

[@bonnielyke1415]

The mother of the bride is crazy😡🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

[@mavenqualityassurancecouns6128]

The groom's mother is exactly a representation of reasons why Indian families live longer, much longer, like eternity..!

[@mavenqualityassurancecouns6128]

Its like stupid boy's mother said she loved the woman who made her daughter wear white in her wedding to a man whose culture proposes white for widows.

[@AuditClerk]

Good God. What an AWFUL premise for a show! But one thing it does show: how we are so eager to compete rather than collaborate. Now imagine if both mothers thought of the other & merged ... both kids would be happy & the mothers would be too! Instead, we have a winner & a loser ... for their respective children's weddings! What on EARTH?!

[@Sheiladd]

I know they make it dramatic for the show, but as an Indian daughter and daughter-in-law, I didn’t like the comment by Surinder “she’s my daughter now, she’s not your daughter anymore”.

[@justiceinalaska2719]

the attitude of the bride's mother is making be cringe... Okay, this is an edit to my comment. I am a Believer, a Christian. I don't think that the bride's mother 1.) is an example of a true (true) Christian attitude, and 2.) Jesus had brown skin, was from a middle eastern culture, and [AND] would have LOVED THE COLOR in the wedding!!! Had to say that. I loathe when people act uppity and better than others. Then, they are all pious on Sunday. She's probably a nice woman, but she's acting ugly because she can. Poor.

I am not Indian, if I could I would have loved to have had an amazing Indian wedding, I love everything the colors, the jewels , I love everything about an Indian wedding! Just a thought why couldn't the Indian wedding dress have been different shades of white ? Edit good choice on dress MOM!

[@anjalipatwal4900]

Indian wedding dresses are not white because in Hindu religion, white is color of peace, so it's usually worn at the time of death. It's the dress color for widows traditionally. If you are a guest at wedding, you can wear White but brides do not wear White. White wedding dresses are common in Christian weddings though. Modern brides are also choosing all sort of pastel shades for their wedding dress but still no Hindu bride would choose a white color wedding dress for herself.

[@prijak]

Because white is the color a Hindu woman wears when her husband dies. It's considered a bad luck color for a wedding. During a funeral in India everyone wears white. So a white wedding looks like a funeral for Indians.

@@prijak Thank you for the explanation, I greatly appreciate it. And that makes sense ! With Love from Washington State 💚🌲
