DID ANYONE ELSE NOTICE THAT HER BM's WERE WEARING BLACK SHOES WITH THOSE BABY PINK DRESSES?????

Am I the only one who thinks that's bizarre?????????????? (and not too attractive either?)

there was black crinolin (sp?) inder the dress so I guess the thought it was ok.

Oh - I didn't catch that.....I just saw them walking down tha aisle and it looked weird!

I thought the whole thing was over-advertised, over-drawn, and thank God it's just OVER!

I noticed the black too It looked weird on the one girl who had a black ribbon around her waist. Why did they all have different dresses? I could see if they all had different body types, but they were all slim

Re: Let's start a Trista & Ryan's wedding thread...

I must admit, the pink wasn't too bad. I loved the graduated colors of pink chair covers from lightest to dark and they also did same with the rose petals.

I usually don't pull weddings apart, but when they have something so highly publicized and even better - the couple doesn't have to spend a dime - IN FACT they were given a million dollars at the end of the deal, I was expecting more!

I'm so disappointed about Trista's hair and her dress! I can't believe that they would've neglected something so important . Also, I agree that the necklace was too overpowering and it did not match her ensemble. She could've worn a better veil and the way they had it pinned at the back of her head made me sick!

I thought the song that Ryan had done for her was cute, but once again, that second dress she was wearing was not flattering and ugh that hair killed me.

Also I thought they could've done a lot more with her makeup. I've seen so many beautiful brides on LIW, they should've come on here for ideas for Trista! How sad! I bet when she looks at the video later, she's going to regret that she didn't put more effort into making her look better.

ABC certainly got all their advertisements in and I was thoroughly annoyed with all the commercials as well, but that's prime time tv.

Everyone is making bets on how long they are going to last, I just hope that with all they hype they make it work for a few years!

Re: Let's start a Trista & Ryan's wedding thread...

I watched the whole thing too.

I liked the pink, I love Pink of course But I think it was tastefully done. I liked her first dress. I think it was pretty. Liked the shoes. What girl wouldn't? BUT:
I did NOT like her hair - uck - those bangs, ewwww. And no tiara? What's up with that, no tiara or hair pins or nothing I think the dress would have looked better w/a tiara.
I agree w/Tray, liked her hair the last episode of Bachelorette the proposal MUCH better - the bangs really had to go.
And the diamond necklace was TOO MUCH.

The FGs and RB were soooo soooo cute.
I liked the BM dresses. If you noticed, they also had diff't dresses for the reception.
I liked the poem turned into song, that was sweet.

All in all, I DO think they will last. Call me a romantic. But I see something genuine in their relationship. Time will tell

BOB and ESTELLA - totally forced. I thought they looked VERY awkward together. Like the beauty and the ugly duckling
Why were they so in love with Bob again??? I def. think HE was the one in it for publicity for his new album. I heard he's quite the whore

Re: Let's start a Trista & Ryan's wedding thread...

I agree 100% with elle! I would take my budget wedding over that wedding any day!

They said on the radio that Bob and Estella werre totally forced and that she should take some acting lessons..

They did ?

Re: Let's start a Trista & Ryan's wedding thread...

Did anyone see the cover of the NY POst?
They call it a tacky wedding.

The pink in my opinion is the reason. I think it was WAYYYYYY over played and ended up being overkill. It could have been nice if it wasnt EVERYWHERE!

The only thing I did like was her second dress (although not necessarily for a wedding) and the song ryan gave to her!

other than that, it seemed like 2 kids playing dress up instead of the most important day of thier lives.

Re: Let's start a Trista & Ryan's wedding thread...

As others said, I did NOT like her hair and makeup.

I actually liked the dress (the first one)

IMO, it was all TOO MUCH, I know it was supposed to be, but I thought ALOT of it was overkill.

Re: Let's start a Trista & Ryan's wedding thread...

I really liked both dresses (although I was expecting something more from the first one but it is definitely something I wouldve picked out - it was a nice princess cut/Aline dress and the second one looked great on her) and I also liked her flowers and chair covers were pretty since I like pink alot (I had pink roses at my wedding - though not that many). I do think it was a little too much pink. The bm dresses were gorgeous - they were Amsale and I liked how all of their bouquets were slightly different.

I think the reason she didnt wear a tiara was because of that HUGE necklace she wore - it wouldve been too much IMO. Her hair and makeup was very understated and kind of blah. The tuxes were cool. Thank god he didnt wear a pink tie.

Re: Let's start a Trista & Ryan's wedding thread...

I think it was a disgrace that the guys she didn't choose (but certainly made out with and maybe slept with!!) were at her wedding! Made me sick!!! But that's TV for ya! Bob & Estella looked so not uncomfortable together but maybe it was her BOOBS hanging out - I know it amde me uncomfortable.

Thought Trista's bouquet was WAY TOO BIG for such a petite girl.

Totally agree with the above!!!! Especially about the tiara!!!! A tiara would have been even MORE overkill!!

And I though the dresses were great! but that's JMO!

Trista definitely watched Steel Magnolia's one too many times. I hope you all know what I'm talking about.

No Misty, I have never seen that movie?-explain???

Re: Let's start a Trista & Ryan's wedding thread...

Julia Roberts wedding is completely pink. Her colors were blush and bashful, 2 shades of pink and I am telling you it was exactly the same as the colors/flowers bunting/chair covers....everything from last night.

I am trying to find a pic of the scene now. You will wet your pants when you see how similar it is.

Re: Let's start a Trista & Ryan's wedding thread...

okay so who thinks that ABC payed to have those helicopters there to make it 'seem' like the wedding of the year????!!!LOL

LMAO thats what I was thinking. I guess it could be the National Enquirer. Even Scott Peterson is a celebrity to them.

My brother was over and he mustve said to me 5 times - 'I cant believe oure watching this cr*p' - yet he watched it with me.

I love to snark on this stuff, just they way they make it all sound so amazing and it's a load of BS. The wedding of the decade

The ringbearer was way too cute. My child would have never sat still like that. I wonder if they had to do a few takes. My brother was laughing because they had stagehands for the wedding.

I didnt like her hair either, I thought it would have looked more glamourous. I think LIW brides have all chosen nicer styles.

I did love the roses that were behind the announcer-host guy (What's his name?) The white and pink mix was gorgeous. I love that color pink roses.

Lastly, does she know Brad Paisley? Is that what Ryan said when he announced him?

He said he was their good friend, so I guess they do know him.

Re: Let's start a Trista & Ryan's wedding thread...

This show was so boring (but of course I kept watching) and I feel asleep during the ceremony - last I saw they were saying their vows. I woke up and the show had just ended! I was so mad! I did like the dress she wore to the ceremony - I thought it suited her. I didn't get to see her in the 2nd dress but when they showed it earlier - I didn't love it...with the whole pink thing - I was expecting somethign much more princess-y. I didn't love her hair or makeup....I thought I was the only one - glad you guys agreed! Not sure what the whoel sand was about...DH thought it was hysterical - he said you are on that site all the time - have you ever seen that? lol

Re: Let's start a Trista & Ryan's wedding thread...

See, Trista was dumb, she should have insiste on CBS for the wedding and Martha Stewart would have done it.

Re: Let's start a Trista & Ryan's wedding thread...

I watched but never watched one episode of The Bacehlorette. I thought we were going to see her in a beautiful tiara, I thought her necklace was a bit gaudy(sp) and 8k shoes?? Come on! I hope Ryan didn't step on her feet while they were dancing. I also thought the black shoes were a bit odd for the BM's. Oh, and 2 wedding bands???

I know the jewelry was on loan, but does she get to keep everything else?? She should auction the shoes off for charity.

Was it me or did anyone else think she didn't look elated. I actually felt that alot of her displays were fake. If I were marrying my soulmate at an all expense paid ($4 million) wedding I'd be overjoyed!!

Re: Let's start a Trista & Ryan's wedding thread...

What exactly did they spend the 4 mil on besides her shoes and the helicopters?

Seriously, I can name 5 girls on this site that could have spent that money better, and planned a better wedding!
