00:00♪ I love it ♪
00:04I'm fat, I didn't say that I wasn't hot.
00:06Oh my God, I look so cute.
00:09Today is the day that I see my dress for the first time.
00:12Oh my goodness.
00:15Rachel's worried about this day her whole life.
00:18No little girl grows up thinking
00:20that they're gonna be bald on their wedding day.
00:23The reality of it is, it's hard.
00:25Sitting on the couch with my glass of wine
00:27watching season 20, and you said,
00:28you have to wear a veil, if you don't,
00:31you're just a pretty girl in a white dress.
00:34No, no, no.
00:37There's just that little voice that tells you
00:40that you're not gonna find a dress.
00:41I hate it.
00:42That tells you you're not good enough.
00:44That's my fear.
00:46You look beautiful.
00:46Oh, buddy.
00:48It's everything that I could ever want,
00:51but I don't think I will know until I come out
00:53and see my mom, sister, and Mikayla's reactions.
01:02Oh.
01:16I assume that I'm gonna be indecisive
01:18because I don't know what I'm looking for.
01:22Okay, I already like, this is a problem.
01:24I like everything.
01:27I know it's an A-line ball gown.
01:29I think, mm-mm, that's dangerous.
01:33Yeah, I like that rough, ruching, ruching?
01:36Ruching?
01:37Striping?
01:37I don't know, not, no sleeves.
01:40But maybe I could try something with sleeves.
01:42I think this is gonna be a problem.
01:48Hi.
01:49I have your next bride.
01:50You do?
01:51Yes.
01:52Her name's Mary.
01:53She's getting married in October.
01:54I think she's out there shopping already
01:55with her entourage.
01:56Love it.
01:57So I'm gonna hold this in the office.
01:58If you need me, I'm gonna be around,
01:59so check in with me and let me know how it goes.
02:01I gotcha.
02:01Thank you so much for yourself.
02:02See you soon.
02:04I started at Kleinfeld and Client Services four years ago,
02:07and I switched to consultant not long ago,
02:10but I am loving every bit of it.
02:12You're good.
02:14My style is a little bit more in the edgy side.
02:16I like to be a little bit more different.
02:18I'm a little bit more adventurous,
02:19and I've always been into fashion,
02:22so my favorite thing about working with my brides
02:24has always been getting their reaction
02:26when they try the dress that fits who they are.
02:28Hello, ladies.
02:30Hi.
02:31Which one of you gorgeous ladies is the bride?
02:33It's me.
02:33Mary?
02:34Yes.
02:35Hi, I'm Catherine.
02:36Lovely to meet you.
02:37So good to meet you.
02:38Who did you bring with you today?
02:39These are my people.
02:40This is my mom, Mary.
02:41Hi.
02:42Lovely to meet you.
02:43Another Mary.
02:44This is my other mom, Anne.
02:45Nice to meet you.
02:46This is my sister-in-law, Joy.
02:47Hi, lovely to meet you.
02:48Welcome to Kleinfeld.
02:50So tell me, I want to know the details.
02:52Tell me about your wedding event.
02:55It's gonna be just really beautiful.
02:57I want to do something,
02:58like I want it to be very beautiful and elegant,
03:01but not too stuffy.
03:02But as for the dress, I want it to be just like romantic
03:05and classy and beautiful.
03:07Okay, I love that.
03:09I don't want to feel too constricted,
03:11but I also, I love my boobs.
03:14Okay.
03:14They're good boobs.
03:15You want some cleavage to show.
03:16But not too much cleavage,
03:18but like church cleavage.
03:20Okay.
03:21You know?
03:22So conservatively sexy.
03:23Church cleavage.
03:23Church cleavage.
03:24What is church cleavage?
03:27You want God, you know what?
03:28You want God to think you're sexy.
03:30I'm just gonna say it.
03:31I want, oh.
03:38Tell me a little bit about your love story.
03:41How did that happen?
03:42How did you guys meet?
03:42Wyatt and I met on a dating app.
03:44And when we met, we were like done with love.
03:46And like within a week, it was like,
03:48we're gonna get married.
03:51Wyatt is my perfect match.
03:52They're non-binary.
03:54Our first date, I just assumed they knew who I was
03:57because I'm a singer, songwriter.
04:00I co-wrote the song Same Love with Macklemore.
04:04I mean, like you're a queer Christian person.
04:06You know who I am.
04:08You know this song.
04:09And you know, I think I said something
04:11about like traveling a lot.
04:13And I was ready for like the celebrity question
04:16or the Macklemore question.
04:17And then Wyatt goes, do you have TSA pre-check?
04:21And I just like died laughing.
04:22I was like, you're perfect.
04:24So Mary, tell me a little bit about what the budget's like.
04:285,000 to 6,000.
04:29Okay.
04:30Let's go for it.
04:31I'm gonna take you to the back with me.
04:32So I'm gonna see you for a couple of minutes
04:34and you ladies can make yourself at home soon, okay?
04:36Okay, I'll see you tomorrow.
04:37I'll be back soon.
04:39I think my biggest challenge today
04:41is probably gonna be just like crying my makeup off
04:43and hoping that I don't get like makeup on the dress.
04:46Tell me a little bit about what you're looking for.
04:47What do you envision yourself for your wedding dress?
04:49I do wanna try a couple different kinds
04:52to see what feels right for me.
04:55I don't know what it's gonna look like,
04:56but I know what it's gonna feel like.
04:58Do we like sparkle?
04:58Do we like beading, flowers?
05:00I like it all.
05:01You do?
05:02I like it all.
05:03It's dangerous.
05:03Ooh.
05:04We're gonna start with three at a time
05:05so it doesn't get too overwhelming in here for us.
05:08And whatever we don't like, you're just saying,
05:09Kat, let's just take you right out.
05:11Okay.
05:11Okay, and then we'll go from there.
05:13Let's go for it.
05:14I'll be right back.
05:14Okay.
05:15Okay.
05:19When brides come in and they're kind of still
05:21narrowing down what kind of styles they like,
05:22it's kind of good to try a little bit
05:24of different varieties of dresses
05:25just to kind of get them going
05:27and trying different things,
05:28see what they like more,
05:29and then we'll go from there.
05:30Okay.
05:31Hello.
05:32Hello.
05:33Hello.
05:34Oh my God, hi.
05:34So I brought three selections just to start.
05:36So I brought this one, very clean,
05:38just to kind of see what you think about this style.
05:41I brought something that's going to be
05:42a little bit more cleaner at the bottom.
05:44That's really pretty.
05:45She's off the shoulder.
05:46Ooh, I like that.
05:47Really pretty and elegant and romantic.
05:49And then I brought a Cinderella.
05:53I think I want to start with the middle one
05:54because I like it so much.
05:55Okay, let's start with the middle one.
05:57The first dress I want to put on fits
05:59closest to the description that I think that I want,
06:04but I know when I put something on my body,
06:06I know what I like, so I'm much more decisive in that way.
06:10How do you feel so far about the classic
06:12and then the embellishment at the top?
06:13Oh God, I really like it.
06:16I'm not crazy about this.
06:17She's off the shoulder.
06:18I feel a little stiff.
06:21I feel like I'm trying, it's hiding me.
06:23Okay.
06:24And I don't want to hide too much.
06:25Let's not, let's not, yeah.
06:27Let's do a little bit more sexy.
06:28Let's take her off.
06:30Should we take her off?
06:30Yeah.
06:31Let's go for it, okay.
06:32I get to be in this body and not hide away from it.
06:35I'm fat.
06:36I didn't say that I wasn't hot.
06:38I do like the, I do like this, is this a sweetheart?
06:42Yep.
06:42I do like this.
06:43I think this is a really good neckline
06:45and I do like the way the boobs are sitting,
06:48but it's just like, I just, I don't want it to be,
06:50I don't want to feel constricted.
06:51Okay.
06:52Like I just feel a little claustrophobic in it, you know,
06:54and I just feel like this is not, this is not it.
06:57I feel just a little bit discouraged.
07:01There's so much pressure to lose weight before your wedding
07:04that you're supposed to look a certain way,
07:06but I am in the best shape I've ever been in.
07:10And for me, feeling good comes so much from within.
07:15All right, should we show them, you think?
07:16No.
07:17No?
07:18Let's take her right off
07:19and let's go to something you feel more better at.
07:20Okay.
07:21What if I'm really not going to find it?
07:23Like I came in here and I was so gung ho
07:25and then all of a sudden, like, oh my God,
07:28I don't want to, I don't want to show my family
07:30any of these dresses.
07:32I'll be right back, my dear.
07:37Every girl gets that moment
07:39where you put the veil on her head
07:41and she suddenly sees herself as a bride,
07:43but I can't necessarily wear a veil.
07:45We'll figure out a way.
07:47We'll figure out a way.
08:07Oh my God.
08:09What girl from Indiana gets to say
08:10that they're coming to Kleinfeld in New York City?
08:14I mean, it means more than just getting a wedding dress.
08:16I think, you know, I get to bring my best friend,
08:19my mom and my sister here too
08:20and it feels like a dream a little bit.
08:22Go look at that.
08:23Oh, we're looking?
08:24Yeah.
08:25I like that.
08:26Oh my gosh.
08:27Oh, you're after the accessories.
08:28Sparkles.
08:29I can't wear any crowns, girls.
08:31There's all these gorgeous dresses
08:34and Mikayla and Lauren beeline it for the headpieces.
08:38I don't think they remember who they came with.
08:43Girls, I know they're really sparkly,
08:44but I can't wear one of those.
08:46Okay.
08:47They're pretty to look at though.
08:49Headbands and whatnot.
08:51Whenever you put it on a bald head,
08:53it makes you look like a newborn baby a little bit.
08:56So I don't envision that for myself.
08:59No, you don't have to, sissy.
09:00Oh, this is so janky.
09:02I don't know.
09:03There's a lot of elements of stuff that I really like.
09:07Oh my God.
09:08Hello, ladies.
09:09Hello.
09:10So beautiful.
09:11Who's the bride?
09:12The one that's bald.
09:13You're the bride.
09:14That is great.
09:15Oh my God, it's so beautiful.
09:18That's a whole slew of emotions that I was not ready for.
09:22Oh, you're so sweet.
09:24And it's Rachel, right?
09:26I just got your sheet.
09:26This is Candace.
09:27She's a consultant.
09:28Hi, Candace.
09:29I know who you are.
09:30It's funny.
09:31I've watched this show a million times,
09:33and I can't wait to see what Randy can put me in.
09:36Rachel's worried about this day her whole life.
09:39Worried?
09:40Since she, yeah.
09:41What she's going to look like as a bride.
09:43Why?
09:44No little girl grows up thinking
09:45that they're going to be bald on their wedding day.
09:48And, yeah.
09:49What's going on?
09:50Like, are you okay?
09:51Yeah, I'm good.
09:52I'm very healthy.
09:54Good, okay, good.
09:56When I was seven years old,
09:57I started to pull, pluck my eyebrows and eyelashes,
10:01and quickly started pulling from my scalp as well.
10:05It's a disorder called trichotillomania.
10:08I started pulling hair from the back of my scalp as well,
10:12creating bald spots and spots that weren't easily hidden.
10:16And eventually, I had no hair at all
10:19by the time I was eight years old.
10:20And it wasn't a phase.
10:23It wasn't just a habit.
10:24It's a natural disorder.
10:27It's just a way for my nervous system
10:28to kind of cope with itself.
10:29And this is how I walk around every day.
10:31I don't wear wigs or anything like that.
10:32Growing up, I always hoped that I would stop pulling enough
10:36to have hair on my wedding day.
10:37I never imagined that I wouldn't be able to.
10:40And the reality of it is, it's hard.
10:43You know, watching the show,
10:45every girl gets that moment
10:47where you put the veil on her head
10:49and she suddenly sees herself as a bride.
10:52And I've just always been scared
10:54that I'm not going to have that.
10:56Because I can't necessarily wear a veil.
10:58And you said, you know, you have to wear a veil.
11:02If you don't, you're just a pretty girl in a white dress.
11:05And that-
11:07I say that to everybody.
11:09And I've heard you say it a million times,
11:12but for whatever reason, that night,
11:13it just, it hit me a little bit.
11:16And now you're going to make me cry,
11:18because I do say that all the time,
11:21but I never thought that it would impact somebody negatively.
11:26And that you would be less of a bride without a veil.
11:28I would never want to offend anyone or upset them in any way.
11:32Oh, I know. Trust me. Ever.
11:33I know.
11:36I mean, that's like the biggest no-no.
11:38You don't want to hurt other human beings.
11:40And unless you've walked in their shoes,
11:43you don't know what they've been through.
11:45I look at other people and all I see is beauty.
11:46I honestly do.
11:48Didn't mean to make Randy Finoli cry.
11:51And I love working with brides so much.
11:54I can't tell you.
11:55That's my favorite thing.
11:56And what are you looking for?
11:58Do you know?
11:59Opposite of this.
12:00Okay.
12:02This is a, I am not a super, super girly girl.
12:05A lot of flowers, a lot of tulle.
12:09But with also that being said, I'm very open.
12:12We said we wanted to try the Belinda on too, I think.
12:14Oh, Belinda.
12:15Oh, Belinda's a good one.
12:15And it has lace on it.
12:16That's cool.
12:17Okay.
12:18So how much are you looking to spend?
12:20Probably around four.
12:21Okay.
12:22Let's go.
12:23Bang, bang, bang.
12:24Guys, go ahead.
12:26Make yourselves at home, okay?
12:27My fiance's name is Alex Iverson.
12:29We have actually known each other since second grade.
12:33He actually shared with me that his first true memory
12:37of me is standing in front of my second grade class
12:39after I came home from a trichotillomania retreat,
12:42educating my classmates about my disorder.
12:45And he remembers thinking, I want to be that girl's friend.
12:48She seems pretty cool.
12:50And after college, things just kind of naturally changed
12:55between us and now I can't live without him.
12:59Okay.
13:00So I think I've got some ideas in mind
13:02and I think we should go pull dresses.
13:04I'm so excited.
13:04Don't you?
13:05Yeah.
13:06I'm ready to get this party started.
13:07Okay.
13:08All right.
13:09Okay, we'll be back.
13:09We'll be back.
13:10Oh my goodness.
13:12She is a magnificent person.
13:15Her strength and the courage to live in that truth
13:19and make awareness for everyone, I'm so astounded by her.
13:23What an incredible bride we have today.
13:26I mean, everything that she's been through
13:29as a little kid to today.
13:32You know, imagine going in middle school
13:34as a girl and being bald.
13:36Yeah.
13:37And that has to have affected her.
13:39Yeah, absolutely.
13:40I know she said that she couldn't wear a veil,
13:44but you know, there's lots of things that we can do.
13:46And I think once we find the dress,
13:49I think that will help dictate what we're going to do
13:52to accessorize her.
13:54I hope you're ready.
13:55Oh, I'm so ready.
13:56Hello, beautiful.
13:57Oh my gosh, that's a lot of dresses.
13:58We have dresses.
13:59Lots of dresses.
14:01Oh my gosh.
14:01Okay, we're gonna start here.
14:03Now this, okay, this one has some beading at the top
14:07and a Mikado skirt, trumpet silhouette.
14:11It's pretty.
14:12Then we have the one you mentioned, the Belinda.
14:14It's pretty.
14:15Okay, then we have Bentley.
14:18See, that's so different than what I thought I'd like.
14:21Where do you want to start?
14:22I want to try that one on first.
14:23This?
14:24Oh wow.
14:25I know, it's very different.
14:27I think I need to start off different.
14:29All right.
14:30Okay, have fun, ladies.
14:32Oh my gosh.
14:34This first dress I really like
14:36because it's not anything I've tried on before.
14:39It's not anything I've even looked at online,
14:42but it's got a kind of magical, whimsical feeling to it.
14:46Oh my gosh.
14:48Wow.
14:50This could be it.
14:52This might be it,
14:55but I'm definitely having a little apprehension to it
14:58because it is so different than anything
15:01that I've looked at or tried on
15:03or been drawn to in the past.
15:06Oh, my mother's gonna die.
15:07Oh.
15:08Oh.
15:09Oh.
15:09Oh.
15:10Oh.
15:11Oh.
15:12Oh.
15:13Oh.
15:14Oh.
15:14Oh.
15:15Oh.
15:16Oh.
15:17Oh my gosh.
15:18Hello gorgeous, you came out in it.
15:19Yes.
15:20It's really pretty.
15:21She's beautiful in this.
15:22She's gorgeous.
15:23This is way-
15:24She's beautiful in all the dresses.
15:25How do you feel?
15:27This has shocked me, like a lot.
15:29It's very, very pretty.
15:31It's a lot bigger than I thought I'd ever,
15:33but like there's just something.
15:35I love the top.
15:37I do too.
15:38Very pretty.
15:39I really love all of it.
15:42Mom isn't liking it.
15:46Oh, I love it.
15:47Oh, you do?
15:48I think it's perfect.
15:49That dress just was her.
15:51It's everything she never wanted,
15:53but it is just gorgeous on her.
15:56Would have never picked this for myself.
15:57It literally just makes sense.
15:58Not in a million years.
15:59Oh, yay.
16:00Did a good job.
16:01I love that.
16:02Yeah.
16:03So, let's try on some more.
16:05Okay.
16:05Let's do it.
16:06We're gonna have fun now.
16:07We're gonna have fun.
16:08That first dress was great.
16:09All right, Marissa.
16:15So we tried three dresses on.
16:16We didn't like go off the shoulder.
16:17We didn't like classic.
16:19Okay.
16:19We didn't want fitted.
16:20Okay.
16:21At Kleinfeld, we have over 2,000 dresses.
16:24So I'm still getting used to learning the stock
16:26and getting Marissa's input is very, very helpful.
16:29Let's try it.
16:30Why don't you try these?
16:31It's hard.
16:32Is she a first time shopper?
16:33Yes.
16:34That's why.
16:34So, yeah, she's still navigating through the styles,
16:37but she's still pretty good.
16:38It's her first time, so.
16:39We got this girl.
16:40If I don't find a dress,
16:41I'm literally just gonna go to the thrift store.
16:44Like, I just feel like if I don't,
16:45I don't deserve a dress if I can't find one here.
16:49Hello.
16:50Hi.
16:51Hi.
16:52I'm Marissa.
16:52Hi, Marissa.
16:53Yes.
16:54Hi, so we found some great options for you.
16:56Oh my God.
16:57Okay.
16:57I'm gonna leave these with Kat.
16:58Oh, those are so pretty.
17:00She's gonna go for it.
17:00Thank you, Marissa.
17:01Righty.
17:02So Marissa and I picked some dresses,
17:05a little bit of variety.
17:05Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
17:06Just to see.
17:07Oh, that middle one.
17:08What we think.
17:10Yes.
17:11And then we'll go from there.
17:12Yes.
17:14Oh, I'm excited.
17:15I am so drawn to the middle one.
17:18Like, that beading is so gorgeous.
17:20Let's try her on.
17:20Should that be the first one we go for?
17:22Yes, yes, yes.
17:23Let's go for it.
17:24It doesn't have all the tulle and stuff
17:26that I thought I was gonna go for,
17:29but the beading is just so beautiful.
17:32Oh, this is so pretty.
17:34It's so gorgeous.
17:36What do you think about this one?
17:37Should we show them this?
17:38I love this dress.
17:39They're probably wondering where we are.
17:40I know.
17:41Let's go for it.
17:42Okay, okay, yay.
17:45Oh my God, oh my God.
17:46I'm having this moment where I'm feeling empowered
17:49about my body in this dress
17:51that historically I wouldn't have worn,
17:53but I really love the way that it feels,
17:56and I feel majestic.
18:03I don't wanna look.
18:04I wanna be totally.
18:06Sorry to keep you ladies waiting so long.
18:08Oh.
18:12Mama.
18:15That's a beautiful.
18:15Oh, isn't that so pretty?
18:18We've got church cleavage.
18:20Why church cleavage?
18:23Well, I just think about the times
18:27that I was just hating my body so much
18:31and just not believing that it would be okay
18:34to be fat in a wedding dress and be okay.
18:38There are so many ways that I didn't feel
18:39like I fit in the world,
18:41and I realized that shame was at the heart of all of that.
18:44I started dieting when I was like eight.
18:47I was throwing away my sandwich
18:49when I was in like fourth grade
18:51because I didn't want people to, sorry.
18:56Because I didn't want people to see me eat,
19:01and that cycle continued until my 20s,
19:04and when I let go of that pursuit,
19:06I started feeling more like myself
19:09and more like I could just have
19:12a peaceful relationship with my body.
19:16You know what?
19:17Okay, this is, talk about body stuff.
19:19So this, this is cute.
19:21I am now just like obsessed
19:23with my cute little back rolls here.
19:25Like this is so.
19:26Love them, love them.
19:27Yeah.
19:28As you should.
19:29And I don't wanna, I am not like,
19:30I looked back and I was like, oh, you can see it.
19:33And I was like, I'm not worried about it.
19:35Like I'm not freaking out
19:36that like something's not looking right, you know?
19:38I can imagine myself as a 19-year-old
19:42or a 20-year-old putting it on
19:43and feeling a lot of shame about the body that I had.
19:46And like, look how, look how beautiful I am in it.
19:49What do you think, Mary, about the clean bottom?
19:53What's a clean bottom?
19:54So it's just basically,
19:56you don't have anything on the skirt.
19:57Oh, like this?
19:58Yes, exactly.
19:59Oh, I don't like that.
20:00I want stuff on the bottom.
20:01Okay.
20:02It's good.
20:03I just know I can, it can be better.
20:05I don't think I'm gonna say it out loud,
20:07but I think if I choose this dress,
20:09I'm gonna be settling.
20:10And I hate that feeling.
20:14Today is the day that I see my dress for the first time.
20:17My dress is here!
20:18Oh my goodness.
20:20Oh my goodness.
20:39Today is the day that I see my dress for the first time
20:42since I tried it on at Kleinfeld.
20:43My dress is here!
20:46I'm so excited.
20:48Oh my gosh.
20:49I cannot wait to see it.
20:54You look beautiful.
20:55I absolutely love it.
20:57So mom, this dress is a little over the budget.
21:02Is that $38.50?
21:05That's almost $2,000 over your budget.
21:08I would be willing to cut a few things out
21:10so I can get this dress.
21:12I think you look gorgeous.
21:14Really?
21:15You look gorgeous.
21:17Emerald, are you saying yes to the dress?
21:19I'm saying yes to the dress!
21:23My wedding is 27 days away
21:25and I'm feeling super nervous yet excited
21:28because I'm just hoping that the dress
21:30is everything I've dreamed of.
21:31You need a pillow?
21:32Yeah.
21:37All right, let's see this dress.
21:39Oh my gosh.
21:42Oh my goodness.
21:43It's so big.
21:45So my mom had a lot to say about us going over the budget
21:48but somehow we did cut the guest list.
21:51We took out a few things and I was able to get the dress.
21:53It's so beautiful.
21:55It's so beautiful.
21:56And this has a train as well.
22:01All this is so pretty.
22:02I know!
22:04The dress is exactly as I pictured it
22:06and remembered when I tried it on for the first time
22:09and I hope I can fit it.
22:16Wow.
22:17Okay, I'm gonna have you stand on the pedestal.
22:19I'm really excited that Rachel loves this dress so much
22:22and I know that she doesn't feel like
22:24she can be a bride without a veil
22:26but I think if we find the right dress,
22:29she will feel like a bride.
22:30And I think I may just be able to get a veil
22:33to work for her.
22:35So let's see how the next dress goes.
22:36I'm very excited.
22:38Let me say something.
22:39How do you feel?
22:40Was that good?
22:41That was successful.
22:42That was successful.
22:43Was that good?
22:44That was successful.
22:45That was successful.
22:46I think so too.
22:47I would be surprised if we could find something
22:49to accessorize her head
22:51that she would be comfortable with.
22:53You know, this one.
22:55Look at that.
22:56I like that.
22:57I like that a lot.
22:58That's beautiful.
23:00And this is the one with the overskirt.
23:02And this has a overskirt.
23:07What'd you think?
23:08I like it.
23:09I'm not like, oh, about it.
23:12I really am.
23:13But it's very, very pretty.
23:14It's gonna, I guess it's gonna be hard to get you
23:16to get that wow like it was in the other dress.
23:19That first one.
23:19That first dress was wow.
23:21It's just shocking because this is like
23:24what I've been drawn to this whole time.
23:26Yeah.
23:27I chose this dress online before I even got here.
23:31But I'm just comparing it to the first dress.
23:42Yeah.
23:46With another lovely dress, lovely long train.
23:50We're loving these long trains, ladies.
23:54So how do you feel?
23:56I like this one.
23:57I do.
23:58With that being said, I picked it.
24:00So it's very expected for me.
24:03So tell me what you like about it.
24:05I like the shape of this.
24:07I like the off the shoulder.
24:09I already know I'm not getting that butterfly moment
24:13that everybody talks about,
24:15but it definitely confirms that I like
24:17the off the shoulder, definitely.
24:20I don't think it's you.
24:21No, I don't either.
24:22I think that I'm looking at the dress more than I am her.
24:24And I think that the first dress,
24:26because it was so clean, it just,
24:28I was, it was really showcasing the money shot,
24:31which is this.
24:33Yeah.
24:34So if she likes the shape,
24:37do we have a simple one in this shape?
24:40We'll find something.
24:40Yes, we will.
24:42I've got the perfect dress in mind.
24:44Off the shoulder, not too much cleavage, great silhouette.
24:48Okay.
24:50So this dress has a simplicity of the first one
24:55and the shape of the second.
24:57This is in the dress?
24:58I don't know.
25:00And these actually are like that.
25:03A little thin.
25:04It's got a little dip, but not as much.
25:07Let's give her a shot.
25:08Okay, all right.
25:09This dress I'm drawn to because it ticks all the boxes,
25:13more so for my mother.
25:15It's simple.
25:16It's got a nice silhouette to it.
25:18The plunging neckline is maybe a bit much.
25:24Oh yeah, snatch.
25:26Oh, always.
25:30Good.
25:31You're quiet.
25:35Uh-oh.
25:37I already start crying because it just feels right.
25:43Look at the back.
25:46Oh, Rachel, do you feel beautiful?
25:48I don't even have to ask.
25:51You look beautiful.
25:52Oh, buddy.
25:53I am nervous walking out.
25:56It's everything that I could ever want,
26:02but I don't think I will know until I come out
26:04and see my mom, sister, and Mikayla's reactions.
26:08Oh, here she comes.
26:10Ooh.
26:14What's going on, Rachel?
26:15I don't have words.
26:18Mom?
26:26What's going on, Rachel?
26:30I love it.
26:31I really do.
26:35I got the butterflies.
26:47Mom, you're always so quiet.
26:49What do you think?
26:51I know.
26:55It's beautiful.
26:58It's Rachel.
27:00This is exactly what I had in mind.
27:03I'm standing in Kleinfeld wearing possibly my dress
27:09with the closest people to me.
27:12Who wouldn't get emotional about that?
27:14So now that you're in a dress,
27:18should we talk accessories or what are you thinking?
27:24I don't know.
27:27Let us play a little bit.
27:31I don't know where this is going.
27:34She may hate it, she may love it,
27:36but I'm going to do everything I can
27:39to really make her a bride
27:40because she really came in and said,
27:42I can't wear a veil, I don't have hair.
27:44So I want to see if it's even possible
27:46for her to wear a veil.
27:48Okay, we're just going to play.
27:52And hold the bouquet like down here
27:54and take the front of the veil.
27:56Let's try something.
28:04Oh, crap.
28:08Having the veil on is the feeling
28:12that I've been looking for.
28:15I don't even know what it looks like,
28:17but the feeling, you can't help but feel like a bride.
28:21Keep those eyes closed.
28:23And we'll see, either, once again,
28:24you're either going to love it or you're going to hate it.
28:26And that's okay, we don't care.
28:28Okay.
28:29We didn't, it's just, we thought,
28:30you know what, let's just try it.
28:32We don't know.
28:33You're either going to love it or hate it.
28:34And it's okay, either way.
28:36Oh, buddy.
28:43Yeah.
28:46I'm not able to even speak
28:48because the emotions are just so overwhelming.
28:51Is there any way we could make that,
28:57take it off, and then for the reception,
28:59make it away so it could attach to her somehow?
29:03I think there is.
29:04We could do like a Watteau train, like this.
29:07Hang on.
29:12And then this would be like this, but longer.
29:14But longer.
29:15And we can make this longer
29:17and then have something like this in here attached.
29:20Love that.
29:25Okay.
29:29There we go, we got two people.
29:33How are you feeling now?
29:35Oh, isn't that pretty?
29:37I kind of like the double layer, the decorative.
29:41Yeah.
29:42I've never even been able to imagine
29:45what I would look like in a veil.
29:47And I didn't think it was possible to have that feeling.
29:52I stand corrected.
29:54I feel like a bride.
29:58You are, and you're a beautiful bride.
30:00You're a bride that hasn't been shorted on anything.
30:07Yep.
30:13They make dreams come true.
30:17They make dreams come true.
30:19So what do you think?
30:20Should we ask you the question?
30:21Oh, yeah, you're about 20 minutes late.
30:26You ready?
30:27I'm ready, you ready?
30:28Rachel, are you saying yes to the dress?
30:33I'm saying yes to the dress and the veil.
30:39Randy always said that if you don't wear a veil,
30:42you're just a pretty girl in a white dress.
30:45Well.
30:48That's still hold true.
30:50I guess he's still right.
30:53He made it happen.
30:54He made it work.
30:56Okay.
30:57Perfect.
30:58Well, that was a good first try.
30:59Yeah, I think it was really,
31:01like, it was, like, I think the best first dress.
31:05I know that this isn't the dress,
31:06but I feel like there's movement.
31:08I feel like there's hope.
31:09I think we should go with her next and see what we think.
31:12Yes, but that one's fuller.
31:13It's got similar, it's not as intricate in the beading,
31:16but I think it will really accomplish that more.
31:18That movement with the fuller skirt.
31:20But there's just that little voice that tells you
31:24that you're not gonna find a dress
31:25that tells you you're not good enough,
31:27that you're, you know, that you don't belong,
31:29that your body is bad,
31:30like, that I kind of have to push back to be like,
31:32no, I deserve, I deserve to find a dress that I like,
31:34and my body is good.
31:37I'm just a little nervous.
31:39How are we feeling?
31:41It's really, really pretty.
31:42Yeah.
31:43It's really gorgeous.
31:46It feels a little cheap up here.
31:48It's cute.
31:49It's a bridal gown, but it's not,
31:51it's not my bridal gown.
31:52No.
31:53No.
31:55No, no.
31:56No.
31:57No, no.
31:59Nah, no.
32:01Looking at these dresses,
32:02I'm worried maybe I didn't communicate clearly,
32:05or like, maybe I don't actually know what I like,
32:08and Kat is just like doing the best she can with me,
32:11and I'm difficult.
32:12Like, that's my fear.
32:14I'm sorry I'm making you,
32:15I feel like I'm making you do so much work, Kat.
32:17I really appreciate it.
32:18This is what we do here.
32:20We need to make the vision come true, right?
32:21And it's important to try different styles,
32:24and keep going back and forth.
32:25It's good to kind of get your input on things.
32:27So it's fine.
32:28You're perfectly fine.
32:29We're good.
32:30You're doing a great job.
32:30I'll be right back, okay?
32:32Okay.
32:33Perfect.
32:34Mary's getting discouraged.
32:35We've been trying so many different dresses on,
32:37but we've been finding out what we like and don't like,
32:40and I think now I know the perfect dress.
32:42I'm back.
32:44It's got off the shoulder, which can be removed.
32:47It's very sparkly.
32:48It has details in the bodice and in the skirt.
32:52All right, so this is the essence of Australia.
32:54Very sparkly, has some details, and she's strapless.
32:57So let's see what we think.
32:59Okay.
33:00At this point, I'm feeling a little fatigued
33:03from all of the dresses,
33:05and wondering what all the possibilities are,
33:07and what happens if this dress is not the right one?
33:19I hope she's finding something that she's interested in.
33:22She's been in there a little while.
33:23I'm hoping, I just, I want to see her in something.
33:28I hope that she comes out soon.
33:30I'm worried that she's not gonna find something she likes.
33:34Yeah, I'm getting worried too, because I've-
33:37It's taking a long time.
33:38A lot longer than I would have guessed.
33:41I really like this one.
33:43I'm gonna start crying.
33:47Oh, this is so pretty.
33:48You look fantastic in it.
33:50Oh my God.
33:52When this dress comes on, I am so shocked.
33:58I feel amazing in this dress.
33:59I love this dress.
34:00Are you not crying already?
34:02I really love it, it's so pretty.
34:05You look fantastic.
34:07You do.
34:0910 years ago, I would not have imagined
34:13that I would be here in Kleinfeld
34:15getting my wedding dress as a fat person.
34:18I always felt like I'm not gonna get married
34:22until I'm thin, or until I weigh a specific amount.
34:25I felt like any relationship I was in,
34:28I was just never gonna be good enough.
34:30Like, I was just never gonna, like, get it right.
34:33And, like, the fact that we get to, like,
34:35celebrate our love with everybody.
34:38Together, yeah.
34:39And I get to look this beautiful,
34:40and, like, have this joy. Yes, you do.
34:42You look badass.
34:43I really love it.
34:45Oh my God, I want to show it right now.
34:46Okay, let's go for it, I'm excited.
34:50I have to show my family this dress.
34:52It fits me like a glove, and I love the sparkle.
34:56And if I'm crying, I know my mom's gonna cry.
35:01I'm gonna block until I, until she's ready for it.
35:04You wanna do a three, two, one?
35:05Yeah, yeah, I wanna.
35:07That thing, I don't wanna see anything.
35:10I don't.
35:11Is she?
35:14That's very sweet.
35:15Oh, baby.
35:16Mary.
35:18Okay.
35:20Oh, Mary.
35:22Okay, I love that other one,
35:24but this whole thing here, I love.
35:26Oh.
35:28Oh, Mary's crying.
35:30Soon as she put it on, she was in tears.
35:33Happy tears.
35:34Oh my God.
35:35So pretty.
35:37Is this, like, in your mind?
35:38This is it, this is so, so beautiful.
35:41I just, I feel so stunning in this dress.
35:45It's an unreal feeling.
35:46You watch your baby grow up
35:49and go through trauma and drama
35:54and joys and sorrows and tears,
35:57and you see her in the dress of her dreams
36:00of getting married to the love of her life.
36:03I just, really so happy.
36:06I don't feel like I'm, like, hiding anything.
36:08I like that when you do that a little bit,
36:10it was a little swishy.
36:11That was nice.
36:12Going on over here.
36:13I'm so emotional.
36:15You look stunning.
36:17Do you see yourself walking down the aisle in this dress?
36:18I could see myself doing that,
36:20but I'm also like, do I have a feeling
36:22because it's the right silhouette
36:23or because it's the right dress?
36:24You know what I mean?
36:25Absolutely.
36:26You know, so turn it off, turn it off,
36:27turn off the crying.
36:28No, no, we're not doing it.
36:29Not yet, not yet.
36:32This is the dress.
36:34I mean, in my mind, I'm, this is the dress.
36:37And I want to put a veil on,
36:38I want to see, like, the whole body.
36:39Yes, add a little bit more of accessories to her.
36:42Okay.
36:43There is this thing that I experience
36:46when something is so good or so perfect or so beautiful,
36:50I think there's a part of me that feels
36:51like I don't deserve it or I shouldn't have it.
36:54So I'm just a little nervous.
36:57Okay, let's see how you feel about this one.
37:00Oh!
37:03When Kat puts the veil on,
37:08it's like, it's like magic.
37:11It's like, all of a sudden, I'm in a, I'm a bride.
37:14I'm a real bride.
37:15Here you go, buddy.
37:16You weren't sure you wanted a veil?
37:17Gorgeous.
37:18I love it!
37:22Oh my God, I look so cute!
37:25I can't take it.
37:27It feels like something that I dreamed.
37:29It makes me feel empowered and sexy and beautiful
37:34and, like, all of the things all at once,
37:37which I feel like is difficult for a dress to achieve.
37:40I'm so happy.
37:42I'm so stupid happy, like.
37:46Okay.
37:47All right.
37:48Dreams come true.
37:49Are you ready for the question?
37:50Yes!
37:51Okay.
37:52So Mary, are you saying yes to the dress?
37:57Yes!
37:58Yes!
38:01I'm so happy!
38:03I found my dress!
38:08I found it, I found it, I found it.
38:09It is perfect.
38:11I'm so happy.
38:12I love you.
38:13I love you.
38:13I love you too, buddy.
38:15You don't have to wait.
38:16You don't have to wait until you reach some size
38:19or weight or anything.
38:21Like, you can just live now and get the dress you want
38:24because I did and it's awesome.
38:27I'm excited.
38:39I feel super excited getting this, my dress.
38:42I'm happy that my alterations turned out great
38:45and it fits me like a glove.
38:47I wanted a fitted look with a mermaid style.
38:50So I'm excited to just walk down the aisle.
38:52I think Quay is gonna be ecstatic
38:57when he sees me in my dress
38:58because he knows that I love stuff that's over the top.
39:00And in my dress there's a lot of bling
39:03and he's gonna know this is my wife.
39:04She's extra, she's over the top.
39:06So I wouldn't expect anything less from her.
39:08Oh!
39:09Oh!
39:10Oh!
39:11Oh!
39:11Oh!
39:12Oh!
39:13Oh!
39:14Oh!
39:15Oh!
39:16When I see her it'll be like when I first saw her
39:18ever in my life.
39:19I think it'll be butterflies in my stomach,
39:21tears coming down my eyes
39:22because she's just a beautiful bride
39:24and I can't wait to see her.
