Yiiiiiikes!!!! Why in the world would anyone spend $90,000+ on a wedding?!?! Good night! Spend it on a house! How many of them will still be married 3 years from now?:) I hope their husbands grow spines sometime soon, lol.

All I know is after a long crappy night at work, I came home rewinded the tape and watched Bridezilla. The last thing I really wanted to hear were these b!tchy women obsessing and complaining about everything. They should just thank their lucky stars they found these men who want to marry them... and the men obviously have some money to boot. I found myself wanting to scream Shut up, calm down, and smile! ....fast foward tape to joe millionaire.

Maybe I'll just rewind and sleep later :)

Well I won't watch this again if there even is another. It wasn't good at all!

I don't like to attend big weddings let alone watch them on TV or god forbid be a wedding planner. What a nighmare job.

Seamonkey, I saw that wedding marathon, I thought it was really well done..much better than the Wedding Stories on TLC.

CAr, agree there.. less formulaic.. the only thing I like about the wedding stories on TLC is the "reveal" (kidding).. the actual ceremonies because they have such a variety of people and ceremonies, but the rest.. just flip over to see the ceremony and possibly the reception. But Bravo did a good job..

From what I understand this show is actually a shortened version of some longer shows they will be showing at a later date...later they will show the ENTIRE wedding of each lady...I think it is horrible...every bride has a bridezilla moment...I know I had mine...and it is horrible that they edited everything down so you saw the worst snipets of each bride...I am positive in the time they were filming this there were many wonderful touching moments but that wasnt fitting in with the show they wanted so for now they lay on the cutting room floor...*shrug*

Kellee, I was thinking the same thing. It's a one hour show detailing how many months of stress for each of how many couples? That is quite literally YEARS to get a few minutes of tape from to show these women in a bad light. I missed the first 20 minutes but from what I saw, even with the few snippets of 'whining' that they had, the show had to elaborate by repeating the phrase "Our Bridezillas" a gadzillion times and then trying to show the grooms as fed up (failed miserably as far as I could see). The worst thing I can say about these couples is that their brains need to get out of their pocketbooks, what a waste of money!!!

This show was so stupid it was funny. The women were so miserable with their dresses. They didn't even think maybe it was the fact that picked such ugly ones. Those poor dressmakers!

As far as a "wedding planner", are they really that helpful? I can't believe that someone actually gets paid to do stuff like this.

LOL Nicole!!

I think I want a medium wedding.
Cause I have quite a big family that I'd want there...
So...

Who knows.
Since I probably won't be getting married ever..or if I do, I'll be 80.

Crazydog...I think a wedding planner is a wonderful thing to have at your disposal...I know a person who does this for a living..and she is a wonderful woman who takes care of all the details so you dont have to...it is really great if you are planning a wedding at a distance or if you have totally unsupportive wedding party...I say if you can afford the wedding coordinator go for it...Look at how those flowers didnt show up until almost the last minute..withouth the planner you would have the bride stressing out over it..and man there would be a true BRIDEZILLA moment...*LOL*...

Watched it - was nauseous and historical at one and the same time - Would watch it again though - Spending $90m on a wedding is pure lunacy but if someone has it I guess it does generate commerce to spend it back into the economy.

BUT who would have 9 dress fittings - and did anyone remember that one of the fittings the entire neckline was simply scissored off - I just can't imagine that -

Of course I got marreid by the mayor and went to lunch afterwards so I guess I'm not much of a judge.

My sister is currently having bridezilla moments... My mom said "Dont look at her directly in the eyes and stay out of her way!" :)
