Since he wants the traditional white dress why didn't he follow the tradition of not seeing the dress until the ceremony. If your going to keep insisting on your traditions, it is the bride that picks her dress, no roosters in the hen house.

[@searchingsoul1728]

lol...so true...

[@searchingsoul1728]

@Xyz Abc He would have been on board BEFORE entering the venue and agreeing on a Hindu wedding. What you forget is no one would agree to a Christian wedding and demand a black dress....No one. The toxicity you smell might be closer to home.

[@nialoren206]

As a non-Indian and non-Hindu person who adores this channel & South East Asian culture, I don’t understand why the first groom would agree to a Hindu ceremony then insist on pushing his Western/Christian ideals on the bride, the ceremony & her culture. If he wanted her to wear white, why not have both a Western ceremony and Hindu ceremony separately? It came across as tone deaf and a little dismissive of the bride and her mom.

[@alexandrabreen5545]

They aren’t a traditional couple. This conversation should have been had before hand for sure. But when two people from different cultures come together, there should be a compromise.

[@RidleyJones]

Not only that, but a LOT of Western brides wear blush/pink bridal gowns. So even the one she initially chose is within a reasonable color palette of what he has probably seen before. So that first one was already a perfect midpoint and she absolutely loved it. Like...what is the big deal my dude?

[@debanderson457]

I agree that he was too pushy. I'm glad the brother was great and came up with the compromise of 2 dresses. It has to be scripted to some extent, and needed some tension so viewers would watch. She seems quite assertive, and theres no way he would have gotten away with his persevering the white dress except for a script. Also i think they are quite well matched with levels of assertiveness and ability to argue successfully for their own point of view. Best wishes to l couples on this show!!

[@blueice011]

Mourning and festive dresses are very, very different, regardless the culture or the color and you know that. You can't possibly confuse white mourning outfit and ivory/pastel beaded, embroidered, bling out with gold, silver and bunch of other colors wedding outfit. It's the same with black dress in western culture. You won't be wearing black with other colors, bling, deep plunge, or ultra mini dress to the funeral. Some thing go without saying. And cultural respect goes both ways. He was wearing shervani and tux, she was wearing only lehengas. I'd say he is the respectful one.

they couldve just gone with champagne color, tbh its his wedding too so he should have 50% Say in it

[@0000asdfasdf0000]

oh my gosh that is exactly what i was about to say. in the hindu culture white is only worn during funerals .... NEVER for your wedding of all things! Sean is lacking a little bit of diversity and cultural acceptance. if it's a christian wedding for the gorgeous traditional white dress mate! i'm all up for that!

[@kinnarishah7949]

The funny thing is - the first bride's two outfits weren't very different in color. I know she kept calling it the pink outfit and the other one white, but it was such a LIGHT pink, almost white, while the "white" one had plenty of blush accents, I thought they were more similar than not. And plenty of American brides have off-white or ivory or even blush, that her first outfit was definitely already in that color palette. It kind of felt like they were arguing about not much difference. (Unlike the second bride whose two outfits were *very* different!)

[@aninditabanerjee2420]

I know right! They were both almost white, and, in my opinion, both lacked colour. I would have liked more colour- like a pastel coral, lavender, ice blue, burnt orange-any colour. My favourite in this episode was the forest green one. …and I got married in a royal blue Banarasi silk sari.

[@awarelee1571]

Sean needs to calm down and start listening, damn. The first dress with all that golden and the palms was absolutely stunning and she's right, she looks like a princess in it! I'd wear it too lol

[@nuthinbutluv4u142]

Not sure why they brought Sean anyway. ANOTHER Christian tradition is for the groom to NOT see the dress before the ceremony. Why is he cherry picking wedding rules? He should have been left at home. In the kitchen.

[@jennytillery6408]

I can understand him wanting to see her in white per his traditions, but I don't think it's appropriate for the main event. Wearing it at the reception was a great idea. The first dress truly seem to be everything she wanted. Upon hearing that statement, he should have hushed!

[@paolabetancur7860]

so sad that Sean was imposing her a color that she's not comfortable with, she said many times that her culture do not use white. She deserves better. She deserves to use the colours of her culture.

[@lucilestengel8696]

Hell no to the first groom. I’m from a Christian culture, and I just would never push someone to wear a colour that they think represents mourning in their culture on their religious wedding day, especially when they don’t like it. Also, don’t tell women what to wear....even your future wife.

[@lilysamuel1237]

Everyone have their own culture, likes and don't. Its nothing wrong to give opinion end of the day the bride choose what she wants.. Marriage is not one to one.. Its two into one. What's wrong if the better half share his / her likes to their partner.

[@revapai9388]

Just to correct u, red is not the “traditional” color in weddings. In many Indian sub cultures, red or maroon used to be worn by widows. Also, in more than 3 cultures in India, white or cream color is bridal color. U can research Gujarat, west Bengal and south India. You will find brides with white/pearl color saree with red border. Or in south India- cream color sari with golden border. So having a cream color dress in ‘not out of Indian culture’ Indian cultures are not narrow as “red is tradition color” which is always portrayed in this show. There are many colors including white/cream which are considered traditional by different sub-cultures in India

[@erinjaynes]

So true! Groom was tooooo pushy!!

[@lucilestengel8696]

@@revapai9388 thanks! I was not implying that red is the colour. All I’m saying is that to her, white is a mourning colour, so why are we pushing her to wear it? It feels wrong to force someone to wear a colour that in their culture is a mourning colour on their wedding day. The only reason why she will wear white is him and it makes me feel uncomfortable 😔

[@madhumitaghosh713]

@@revapai9388 I'm sorry you are correct about white n cream being wedding colors in Gujrat and Southern India and maroon as mourning color for Rajasthan.. but I'm sorry you're wrong about West Bengal.

[@marysheffield190]

When two cultures come together in marriage, there is always one that will need to compromise. I remember a woman who came in to find a nonconventional wedding dress on Say Yes To The Dress, preferably a “Steam Punk” style. She didn’t want a white dress, but something different than traditional. They found this beautiful eggplant gown that was absolutely stunning on her. Her mother and friends fought her to try and change her mind, but in the end she got what she wanted. So no matter what others want, a bride needs to feel that love for her dress, no matter what culture you come from.

@@ansa241 I guess if you bling it out and it's more bling than fabric but it depends on the family. Usually you wear plain unadorned white for death service. But I heard the mum saying that the priest would object to her wearing white. So, I guess it depends on the family. We wear red/peach to marry and white(wedding dress) for the reception or Christian wedding if it's there is a Christian service too.

[@sewforlife5728]

I think that first couple was a really good compromise. I like at the reception she wore the white and he wore a black tux so it was respectful of his American culture and the wedding ceremony was respectful of her culture. A lovely blend, very tastefully done. The 2nd couple, so glad she got the green lehnenga to. She look awesome in the pink and it was really glam, loved it and the mirror pieces on it was so unique. Not seen that before. The green dress was more understated but very tailored and elegant and sophisticated and fit her so well. Looked really lovely on her.

I usually take the groom's side because too many brides turn into bridezillas these days. However, the first groom just annoys me. I'm Armenian and I'm Christian, there can't be any whiter than that. Yet if I marry an Indian man I will most definitely honor his culture and family traditions as much as mine. I get that your traditions are just as important for you but their culture perceives white as a color of grief. Why would you insist on her going forward with it? I mean, it's her dress and wishes too. For years she must have fantasized about wearing a colorful wedding outfit. Can't she have that? You marrying her means you vow to honor her culture too. There are ethnicities with much different and stricter traditions. If you go as far as marrying a person from such ethnical background you should be ready to adopt her culture as well. This goes for women too. Also, there is no need to be rude to your partner if you disagree with them, especially in front of other people. Just because he insists you wear white doesn't mean you should shut him down rudely.

[@susannahfox7188]

"The priest won't accept that dress, it's too white...." My question is, rather than the dress, why would the priest accept a white non-hindu man as the groom? If Sean came from a Christian background, it WOULD be important for him that the dress be white. Come on people, see it from both sides. Recommendation: before you go to buy your dress, get it straight beforehand what the plan is, rather than hash it out in front of your in-laws/parents.

[@searchingsoul1728]

@@susannahfox7188 Hindus don't believe in conversion. So, unlike Islam, Christianity, Judaism, and Catholicism, where typically the religious leaders will traditionally NOT perform the wedding ceremony unless the one that is not of their denomination is converted, Hindu priests will NEVER ever ask for a conversion. There is a lot of variety in Hindu beliefs; so within Hinduism, you have a lot of people coming together with different beliefs. But, a Hindu priest will never do things that are "upshukan" aka bringing bad luck to the bride nor advocate it. If the girl wears white or black or blue, in reality, the priest wouldn't have said anything like "I refuse to do this wedding..." (My family is from that priest subgroup, so I know.) But the parents will ask the priest what needs to be done and there are things he will list out. The dress color is not one of them BUT it's a common understanding that the priest does not need to spell out. If the girl suggests black or white to the priest, the priest might suggest avoiding them. It's not as stern as the other religions I listed above.

[@susannahfox7188]

@@searchingsoul1728 I was not referring to the need for conversion in my post. And I would not say that at least in Christianity, that it is mandatory for a conversion to occur (especially in these end times). I used to practice vedic astrology, so I understand the idea of searching for "good luck" via a color or a gemstone, or a pendant. I no longer practice this, as I have made changes in my life. Astrology is considered a sin in Christianity. I have repented of it. What's most important is one's relationship with the one true God (not many small gods as some believe). What's also most important is where your eternity will be spent, as opposed to trying to have "good luck" in the earthly existence. It is temporary, and we are just pilgrims passing through. In Christianity, the marriage is symbolic of the real marriage that will occur between the bridegroom (Jesus) and his bride, the church. The book of Revelation talks about wearing clean white linen for those who have accepted him through the free gift of grace, and believe he is who he says he is. This is the underpinning for a Christian marriage. The husband loves his wife, (she was taken from one of his ribs after all in the first marriage) as God loves his church. They become one. The wife respects her husband. We have only one priest who intercedes for us.....Jesus Christ. He is coming back very soon for his bride. Earthly priests are an oxymoron. Even in Christian churches. Blessings to you.

And also the pink dress she chose was also really light and almost looked white tbh

@@searchingsoul1728 Please. These days, in the era of internet, it's so easy to spot the difference between mourning outfits in both cultures, them being solid black or solid white, comparing them to festive outfits in the same basic color but entirely different cut, lots of bling and the entire palette of different colors included. Once you put bling and other colors on a white or black dress and make them show lots of skin, they are no longer mourning outfits. They are festive one. Besides, light pastel lehengas are very in in India lately and some of them are barely more than off white, but still not white and with so many details and work that they can't be mistaken for mourning white, plane and simple clothing. Finally, she was wearing lehengas during both wedding events, honoring her culture, while he was wearing both tuxedo and shervani, honoring both cultures. It's fine with me, ho issue whatsoever, just saying.

It might also have been nice to have two separate ceremonies, one Hindu and one Christian.

[@abbielunsford8485]

I think the first brides future husband pushed too hard for the white. I honestly think she looked gorgeous in both dresses… but I don’t understand why the groom said we aren’t traditional but he was pushing so hard for a traditional white dress because it’s what he grew up with!

[@geridegurski2085]

She glowed in the blush and it looked gorgeous on her. The white was pretty and he just didn't get it. Taking two was good. Both the green and the hot pink was beautiful on the second bride.

[@lilifriio452]

The groom is tone deaf to her culture. If he agrees to the Hindu wedding, the white dress means mourning and is worn at funerals, period. Why is he not understanding? 🤷‍♀️

[@karenneill9109]

I thought the two dresses that the first bride bought looks quite similar to me, if I were to get two dresses, I’d have them more contrasting.

I miss the third option. All these lehengas are so beautifull. I know that red and pink are the most traditional but there are so many other colors that they never try. Maybe you can promote that although customer is the king.

[@manishabhattacharjee2206]

I feel like the first couple will have difficulties down the line with cultural differences. I'm not one to say anything just based on this short segment, but that's just what I feel. Also, is there not a Christian ceremony where she can wear a traditional white gown? There should be both, I feel. But good luck to them.

The gold was STUNNING and the white dress was beautiful, too. Both fit perfectly for their time to shine✨✨✨

[@Princess_Sani]

The palm tree lehenga for the first bride and the pink lehenga for 2nd bride are beautiful so gorgeous 😍 ✨️ 💖 💗 💕 💓 I like that they were able to compromise and he didn't push it like no just one dress white for the ceremony. I like that she could get 2 that she could get a mehendi lehenga but usually you wouldn't cuz of budget and the mehendi lehenga being less blingy so you can put on mehendi.

[@esraayousef5643]

I am happy the bride agreed to get the white langha, in the photos and the venue it looked STUNNING. congratulations to both, they both looked great in all of their outfits.

Both or all cultures are very important Bride should wear what she wants Then bride has no saying in what guy should wear on his wedding... should go both ways, respect each other's decisions and opinions! My opinion, all Indian dresses would look gorgeous on that beautiful girl.

I loved todays episode, would love to see more lehngas in the choice part just cause i love looking at them💕.

[@colettebaker2842]

I would like to say that if the non Indian groom had gone for a western style wedding he would not have been included in choosing the brides gown, in fact he would not have even seen it until the bride walked towards him on the wedding day. To want a Hindu wedding, but want the bride to wear a colour of mourning is not very respectful.

[@nellrose4699]

if my groom spoke to me like that about my choice of dress colour i'd be like 'nope, weddings off!' i mean he's pushing her into a white dress....she's not pushing him to wear indian wedding clothes (sorry I can't remember what the men's clothing is called)

[@ginger1549]

I wish they would do an explanation of all the various events thwey spaek of for those of us not of Indian heritage.

[@sarahcoreas3147]

Google them!

[@user-KK812]

The events you have in your wedding does depend on which region you are from in india but in general : haldi - it’s a pre wedding ceremony where the bride and groom are washed and bathed with turmeric to cleanse their skin and symbolise the start of wedding festivities Mehendi - it’s a ceremony where they put mehendi or henna on the bride and other womens hands . The henna looks gorgeous but it also has a practical purpose as according to ancient sciences it helps to relax and alleviate stress Sangeet - this is a fun ceremony when the whole family comes together dances and sings and just enjoys together ( its just a huge party basically ) Then we have the wedding and reception which are pretty self explanatory I hope I could help !

The white ensemble and the pink with the palm trees were beautiful. It is nice that they celebrated both cultures.

Saying outfits don't look like wedding outfits ..well not the kind of weddings you've been 2 sir......BUT they are.....he would want her to wear a proper western white dress if he got his way ,then their in the wrong store 😆

All the people in the comment section literally bashing the the first bride and groom. It’s all scripted. The bride’s insta handle is mentioned in the caption. Go and check. They had a christian ceremony too apart from Hindu one. She wore a gown for the Christian ceremony.

[@goldenbee-army-of-bts]

The first groom who is insisting to wear white dress on wedding day should have known a Hindu girl wears white when her husband dies. It's not for wedding. They put something from red family. And how can you get married with a girl if you don't respect her culture. You are forcing your culture on her. That's quite bad.

[@122Kittykat]

I have to say it, Sean, if you agree to a Hindu wedding then she should follow tradition. He seems very pushy and wants his way. I'm glad they came to a good conclusion, but he was not giving in at all. I'm glad she stuck to her guns! Sean, you have to meet in the middle. You can't have your way all the time.

[@eileenmcdonald1599]

What are you babbling about

[@barbarakosloski9260]

Sean should learn when to speak and when not to. He commented "tradition isn't everything" then kept insisting on a "traditional" Western white wedding gown. Hello? You contradicted yourself. Learn to keep your opinion to yourself especially when it comes to another culture's traditions... the "culture" of your future bride. His accent is not American either. Plus if Sean is stuck on Western wedding traditions, why was he at the appointment? A groom does NOT see the bride in her wedding ensemble until she walks down the aisle. In other words, groom's have NO say in what the bride chooses. Period. Zip-it Sean.

[@cillieme4381]

Just beautiful. How wonderful to have a heritage that is rich in tradition. To actually have a outfit that is tied to your culture and beautiful to boot . Low key envious here. Lol

[@rohoscube8770]

With all the people saying “white is the color of mourning and shouldn’t be worn at the wedding” are clearly out of touch of today’s Indian fashion. Aliaa Bhatt recently wore a beautiful Sabyasachi off-white saree for her wedding to Ranbir Kapoor. Having said that I totally understand the bride’s liking for the pink palm tree lehenga as that also represents her Caribbean upbringing.

[@gravyz2cute4u]

I'm glad that the first bride agreed to wear both outfits and I'm glad her brother? stood up for the groom. Since they are both opting for a Hindu wedding, which I am assuming the groom has very little say in what happens in that regard, I'm glad that the bride respected something important to his tradition. Not sure why she brought him along when she flat out said his opinion didn't count. Yes, colour meanings are very significant but the groom should get at least one thing to account for his traditions when the rest will be for her traditions. The outfit he picked was very beautiful and stunning and imo it was a similar colour to the one she liked. It didn't look plain white, it looked more silver/crystal/pearlescent. I'm happy the bride also got the outfit she wanted but you can't even really tell there's much of a difference in the photos anyway since the blush colour was so subtle. Either way, the bride looked stunning in both and I'm glad that they could both be happy. Second bride looked amazing in both outfits! Love the green one's nature theme and the pink one looked amazing for her dance :)

[@helensimmons1869]

All the dresses hanging on the back wall are so absolutely stunning BUT no one ever tries them on! They have some aqua and peach gowns that I would love to try on! I understand they favor red but it's getting old! PLEASE try on more colors
