Next, bride-to-be Angela seeks the help of consultant Randy Fenoli in finding a dress that is both elegant and comfortable. Angela is getting married on a yacht and wants a dress that will make her feel comfortable while also making a statement. Randy pulls a few dresses he thinks might fit the bill and Angela tries on a flowy, off-the-shoulder gown that has her questioning whether she wants a more form-fitting dress instead. Randy is sympathetic to Angela’s concerns but also encourages her to step out of her comfort zone and try on a few dresses that she wouldn’t normally consider. Can Randy help Angela find a dress that will make her feel both comfortable and fabulous?
The episode also features bride-to-be Stefanie who is getting married in a rustic barn setting and is looking for a dress that is both beautiful and casual.

Finally, the episode follows bride-to-be Dee, who is getting married for the second time and wants a dress that is different from her first wedding gown.

Dee tries on a few dresses that she likes, including a simple sheath and a more embellished gown, but none of them seem quite right. Consultant Randy suggests a dress with an illusion neckline and sleeves that Dee initially doesn’t love, but eventually falls in love with. However, when it comes time to make the purchase, Dee becomes hesitant to commit. She is worried that her fiancé won’t love the dress and her family tries their best to calm her nerves.
