Well honey, if you're not willing to pay for their nessecities and when you do you expect something else in return when they grow up, that's not being rude, that's called being selfish, manipulative and just straight up a bad parent. I am not calling all south asian parents bad, I'm just calling out a group of people who are as self entitled as heck! It is unfortunately seen mostly in south asian countries. I'm a south asian myself. I've seen a lot of women like you and I absolutely despise them.

Her mom looks like a life-sized version of Chuky’s bride 👰‍♀️

[@chippyl3331]

Definitely a pagent mom - doesn't care about anyone else's opinion/feelings, or budget, even if it's not hers! If she wants to go over budget, then she should pay for it!

[@katiebugg7018]

I LOVE Lori 😂 “momma has some long apron strings and I’m gonna tie em up” cuts to “does she normally dress you?” -uh huh- “yea I can tell🙄” 😂

[@gail6552]

Nobody gonna walk about how glassy eyes and crazy that mom looked. There was not a single thought behind her eyes.

[@alexisjones65]

I love the bride. She finds the positive in everything

[@trishradloff8817]

My goodness I thought that bride was closer to 30! She’s very lovely, but her makeup is a bit old for her.

[@irenauknat9129]

Still waiting for the day Atlanta version comes out of 2008

[@laurahenderson2155]

THAT BRIDE IS 22! She looks SO much older with all that makeup pasted on her face. Like mother like daughter I guess. The mothers face had tones of makeup painted on her face as well.

[@jahnavisingh4970]

Ffs let women do whatever the fuck they want with their bodies, it is not free reign for you to comment on whether they “should” wear less or not wear makeup. Stop judging other women, that is actually ugly .

[@nochettally3316]

and your problem with that is???

[@lavenderbythestream1736]

She lying about her age.

[@emmajanepoteet2339]

what's your point lol

[@sharnagrayson9649]

I said the same thinggg

[@jacquelinevache855]

"This is what I originally had thought: something strapless, mermaid" and she said in the beginning that she didn't know what she wanted/had thought about. Her mom really too much control over her.

[@Whit23ney]

Lemme stop you right there. Mom says “If I want it. I want it, even if it’s more expensive.” Bride is paying for it. No her. 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️Pay for your daughter’s gown then! 😏

[@Priscillamccarthyy]

Isn't no one talking about how her younger sister looks like a Barbie Doll, she's soooo beautiful!!! 4:20

[@thakshalamadanayaka3293]

I love lori.she's good mama

[@ladyjustice1474]

I hope the bride and groom live at least 4 hours from the bride's mom after they're married. The bride looked stunning in her choice. Hope her mom didn't pressure her into wearing something else.

[@colleenosullivan857]

They constantly show that first dress. It’s ugly

[@amotimeplayer8229]

Oof! She said "Does your mom always dress you?...Yeah I can tell." Sass!😂 the bride was beautiful in all of them.

[@ErinMar]

That is definitely not a Hawaii wedding dress, but of course she’s beautiful.

[@dommino22]

It is terrifying that people who cannot make decision about what they wear, marry. It is just so important to know yourself and know who you are before deciding to marry anyone. Self-identity is incredibly important. Wish this girl all the best.

[@missybelmont9830]

Not every woman was meant to be a mother, clearly.......one of the most non supportive mothers Ever on this show..in every way

[@misspearltaylor]

I LOVE the way Lexi the bride looks in the dress she picked, especially all fixed up with veil and jewelry. She did a great job selecting her own dress. P.S. Mama is a real airhead. Wonder how Lexi turned out so authentic.

[@hurst-cs2jh]

Hello Claudia 👋

[@beeenie822]

Maybe the influence of the dad and the rest of the family?

[@shinjineesen400]

This bride is stunning. She could wear almost any dress and look good in it. I am glad that she found what she liked within her budget and apparently is now happily married with kids.

[@JacMac9608]

“This mom has some long apron strings, and I need to tie them up” 🤣

[@madliberal7710]

I am a straight guy but I would love to have Monty as a pal to hang out with as he is so classy with a wicked sense of humor.

[@julievanderleest]

“Seriously, there’s birds on the beach. I see no problem with feathers.”🤣 There’s crabs at the beach too. They must resemble the mother.

[@MegaMrinu]

The first dress that the bride tried... always comes when any bride says she has no idea about her wedding dress 😂😂❤❤

[@pakristofzski]

What a gorgeous lady! She could wear a flour sack and look AMAZING. I love that she got her pick, it's so nice to have something representative of you on your wedding day! (As a bride that wore a dress she didn't like, and wasn't even close to what I wanted. I'm grateful we knew ppl so it was 300$ but that was definitely my mother's wedding day not mine)

[@alexusturner2039]

The Mama needs to shut up it's not her day her mom just wants to relive her wedding day through her Daughter and needs to let her Daughter have her day

[@angelgabel7741]

Is happy to hear that she still married and they have two kids I hope she's able to stand up for herself for marriage and for her kids does anybody have any info how that's going

[@caligirlmarti]

Once again It's not your wedding mama!!

[@nimaajamal2696]

right!
