Ep 5. You Can't Give Every One a Rose

In this episode of Say Yes to the Dress: Atlanta, titled "You Can't Give Everyone a Rose," viewers are taken along on the emotional journey of several brides-to-be as they search for the perfect wedding dress. At Bridals by Lori in Atlanta, Georgia, these brides seek the guidance of some of the most talented and experienced bridal consultants in the business.

The first bride we meet is Paige, who has come to the salon with her mother, grandmother, and sister. Paige is looking for a dress that will make her feel confident and beautiful on her wedding day, but she is also concerned about staying within her budget. Her consultant, Lori, listens to Paige's concerns and helps her find several options that fit her vision and price range. However, when Paige's family sees some dresses that are outside of her budget, tensions rise. Will Paige choose a dress that she loves but can't afford, or will she settle for something that doesn't make her feel as special?

Next up is bride Caroline, who comes to Bridals by Lori with her mother and two bridesmaids. Caroline has a unique sense of style and is looking for a dress that will reflect that. She has brought along several inspiration photos, but as she tries on dresses, she quickly realizes that not all styles work for her body type. Caroline's consultant, Monte, is honest with her about which silhouettes and fabrics will be most flattering, and Caroline appreciates his advice. However, when her mother and bridesmaids don't like the dress Caroline loves, she is torn between pleasing them and staying true to herself.

The third bride we meet is Sabrina, who has come to the salon with her mother and three sisters. Sabrina is looking for a dress that will make a statement and show off her curves. She tries on several dresses that are too traditional or don't fit her well, but when she finally finds a dress that makes her feel like a queen, her family is hesitant to approve. They think the dress shows too much skin and is too sexy for a wedding. Sabrina is torn between wanting to please her family and feeling confident in a dress she loves.

Finally, we meet bride Kaysie, who has come to Bridals by Lori with her mother and four bridesmaids. Kaysie is looking for a dress that will make her feel like a princess, but she is also concerned about the comfort and practicality of the dress. She tries on several dresses that are heavy or difficult to move in, but when she finds a lightweight dress with a detachable train, she knows it's the one. However, when her bridesmaids don't approve of the detachable train, Kaysie is forced to choose between their opinions and her own desires.

Throughout the episode, viewers get a glimpse into the relationships between these brides and their families and friends.
