With double the opinions and double the personalities, wedding consultant Lori Allen has her work cut out for her as she attempts to please both brides and their disagreeing family members.
The first bride, Meagan, has always dreamt of a bohemian-inspired wedding. Her entourage includes her mother, sister, two grandmothers, and two aunts who are all eager to give their input on Meagan's gown. Despite their differing opinions, Meagan stays true to her vision and envisions herself in a flowy, lace dress. However, finding a dress that pleases everyone proves to be more challenging than anticipated.
On the other hand, the second bride, Kristen, has a more traditional style in mind. With both her mother and future mother-in-law in attendance, Kristen hopes to find a classic ballgown-style dress with a bit of sparkle. When Lori brings out a gorgeous gown that fits the bill, the mothers can't help but become emotional and tear up at the thought of their daughters getting married.
As the appointments continue, emotions run high. The brides struggle to remain calm as they attempt to please everyone in their entourage. Meanwhile, Lori does everything in her power to make both brides feel special and heard while also accommodating the demands of their respective families.

Despite the challenges, both brides ultimately find their dream dresses, with Meagan selecting a lace bohemian-style gown and Kristen choosing a more traditional ballgown with a bit of flair. Tears flow as both brides say "yes" to their perfect dresses, and their families come together to celebrate their special day.
