Crowd-sourced wedding advice has its place, but if you have access to the wedding expert, you go straight to the top: Bailey, a Say Yes to the Dress bride did just that, asking one Martha Stewart to join in her wedding dress hunt after she was having doubts about her “say yes” dress. (Bailey is an employee of Martha’s publicist.)
“Having had a daughter who wore a gray flannel suit to her wedding, any chance I get to help a bride is fun,” Martha said.
Bailey pointed out a dress she had tried on and said price tag was too steep for her. “Oh, don’t think about budget,” Martha teases.
While we watch Bailey try on the dress she’s questioning, Martha explains to the camera: “You have to tread lightly. You can’t say, ‘Oh, that’s a horrible dress’ and she’s already chosen.” So Martha opens with, “It’s gorgeous.”
But then comes the blow: “I just think it’s a little rigid. It’s a little hard.”
As everyone else chats about the merits of the dress in question, Martha says in voiceover: “That she has had second thoughts ... I think is good.”
To see which dress Bailey says yes to, tune in tonight to the season 14 premiere of Say Yes to the Dress on TLC at 9 P.M. ET.
