  • I watch it too i cant believe the size of the dresses. I felt sorry for the girl who got her wedding cancelled you would think that would be illegal.

    Certainly opened my eyes re the traveller community I had no idea they were so strict with their kids... I just don't get why they let their young girls dress as they do it doesn't make sense... interesting nonetheless...

    and those dresses were GINORMOUS......:eek: and soooooooo tacky!!

  • I'd love to know how much those dresses cost :eek: It is so hard to imagine a dress that weighs 27 stone :eek:
  • I think the tacky part has to do with the fact they are so young.
  • Hi it was really funny !!! I now think that our wedding will be totally elegant and tastefull compared to those !!!
    We got married 17th April 2010 !! A wonderful day with my wonderful husband !! :T

    I posted this in another thread as my GF knew a designer that made these type of dresses and some came in at £25k but these where Central London prices and the designer is well known for her wedding dresses.

    No sex before marriage. No living together before marriage. Virtually no divorce.
    That's how things used to be for most people in the UK. I still remember being embarrassed/sniggering when a friend said she was moving in with her bf before they married in the late 70s.... and that was just by a month or so.
  • LOVED the programme. Have read somewhere the dresses are in excess of £15,000!
    Not quite sure if there the dresses I had in mind, but some extreme designs. Can't really work out why some of the venues were so snobby though, I understand sometimes there can be fights but couldnt it happen anywhere?
