Has anyone been on the show Say Yes to the Dress?

gbqueen81 asked:


Say Yes to the dress is a show on TLC that documents a bride’s search for he r wedding dress at Kleinfeld’s in Manhattan. I got a call for casting and then was told that I would have to pay for my own airfare, hotel, food, and then I wouldn’t even get a discount on the dress! I just think this is ridiculous. Why would I pay to put myself on TV? I just want to know if anyone else did this.
Actually, their dresses start at about $1500, but most are $2500 and up. The casting advertised for brides from ALL walks of life and did not specify that they had to be from the Tri-State area. They were looking for brides nationwide. I was thinking about doing it since we have friends in NYC anyways, but we just found out my fiance was laid off from his job. I am a business owner and I don’t think I need to pay for bridal fame. I am not going to pay all that money for a 3 hour bridal fitting and consultation. I’m sure there are plenty of great places to find a dress in Orlando. Besides, I’m a military veteran and last year for veteran’s day, David’s Bridal in my home town gave out free dresses to veterans. I’m not about to spend $25,000 on a dress to wear for one day…I’d have to wear that dress for the first 3 weeks of marriage and then wear it again every year for my anniversary! lol
