Yay!
[APPLAUSE]
Before you take your robe off, I want you
to just move here for a minute. - Oh, feel the pedestal?
Yeah, keep going. It's a circle.
- Can I hold your hands? - Yeah.
Thank you.
I have never worked with a blind bride.
This is really going to be interesting to me.
But you know what, she seems to, like, know what she wants,
and she seems to also know how things feel.
Like, she-- she called it.
When she touched it, she knew exactly what the dress was.
Oh my goodness, do you look great.
Aw.
So it must have been hard for you in the beginning, huh?
I thought everything was going to go back to the way
it was before my accident.
I thought everything was going to be the same.
I was going to have all my friends.
I can't even tell you the number of friends
I lost due to that communication barrier.
When I became blind, I--
I had this pessimistic feeling inside of me
that I wasn't ever going to be able to find
someone because, I mean, who wants to be
with someone who can't see?
But then I met Tyler.
We were in our class, and we just started talking.
And at the very end, you know, he did the cliche,
you know, can I have your number for a reason
other than why he actually wanted my number.
[LAUGHS]
Will you marry me?
Hold on.
[SQUEALS]
He cares so much about my happiness.
When I don't feel beautiful, he makes me feel beautiful.
[SQUEALING]
So are you ready to show that--
I want you to feel everything.
OK, so feel the--
I already feel it though.
It's simple, but not simple, you know?
It's simple in the best way possible.
- Right. - Does that make sense?
Yes!
And then the different textures.
OK, let's get logged back on.
Let's go, shall we?
OK, let's go!
Hey, guys.
Don't forget me!
Oh gosh, Randy!
I'm sorry.
Yes.
I almost forgot you!
[LAUGHS]
I'm very excited.
[GASPS] OK.
Oh, my god!
OK, so just follow me a little to the left.
Oh, wow.
Shayla, oh my god.
We're gonna go straight.
We're going to be getting on this pedestal thing,
but it's not in front of you.
I have you're far away from it.
Oh, my god.
And I'm going to turn you around.
Randy, where are you?
Here you are, right?
I'm here.
Introduce yourself to Randy.
Hi, I'm Kelly, and this is mom.
I am so excited.
Hi, Mom!
Hi, Randy!
I'm going to give Kelly the iPad--
Yes.
--to hold.
And--
Oh!
So, [INAUDIBLE], can you see?
Wow!
Oh, my goodness, this literally, it--
it's perfect.
I love this dress so much.
It's stunning.
How do you feel, Shayla?
I feel good.
Girl, you look so good.
I feel good!
You look so good.
Mom's making a face.
Mom?
I have a little bit of reservation.
What?
About this?
We'll deal with your mother.
I was like, well, I have something to say to that.
I have something to say about that.
I know.
Right now it's not a perfect fit, right Randy?
Yeah.
And if necessary, we could get some extra lace applique
and fill in a little bit.
Just a little bit.
Just a little, but we want her to be sexy.
Bodice is sheer over here, and part of that is really
very important, because you see how
it creates an optical illusion, makes the waist look smaller?
Oh, yeah.
I think we started out with a good first.
Yeah.
I think it's a little much.
I don't know if I'm going to be able to get a dress
where my mom is not going to--
she's not going to, you know, like it or approve of it.
We'll see you in a few minutes, OK, guys?
- OK. - Bye.
- Make a right turn. - OK.
So I'm a little bit worried about that.
I like that one.
I just don't know what she's going to come out with next.
All right, so, we're going to put Randy's dress on now.
OK.
Let me get you zipped, this is quite big on you.
Yeah.
Move a little forward.
OK.
OK, so I want to just let it lay out.
I have different emotions about this.
So tell me about the emotions, because that's the key.
I need to know.
You don't seem as excited.
I like it.
I love that I could feel rhinestones, or the sequins--
Yeah the sequins.
The sequins under this.
And it has a different, like, fabric and textures.
Yeah.
Grr.
I'm not really feeling this dress.
Something just feels off, and I'm not sure quite what it is.
We're coming!
Yay!
Ooh, OK.
Oh.
And we are approaching the gang.
Hey!
And we're going to get you on the pedestal.
Drop down the dress and let's turn.
This is an a-line dress, and this is by Randy.
I love this.
I think the skirt is easily my favorite part.
Lisa, can I show you what the front's supposed to look like?
OK, let me see.
Oh!
No, Shayla, No, oh my gosh.
Oh, my gosh.
OK, that changed everything for--
it just changed everything.
Yeah.
It's supposed to hit at the widest point of the shoulders
so it makes your waist look smaller.
Yes.
I think this is beautiful.
You're absolutely right, Randy.
Thank you for telling me that.
I think it's more flattering on her.
This one is very, very romantic.
But where's the sexy?
Because I don't really feel it.
Although I may not feel, you know, that great in it,
I could definitely sense in the inflections of their voice
and how excited they are about this dress,
which means a lot to me, because, of course,
their opinion matters.
It's at the tip of the shoulder, tip.
Even though Shayla can't see herself in this dress,
the number one thing that I tell every single bride
is that you have to feel beautiful in your dress.
I think I want to still try on the other one just because.
Just because.
Just to get that final confirmation.
I want to try on the third dress that we have,
because there's just something inside of me
that feels like I need to.
I don't know if you ever get that feeling
inside of you that's like, "just do it," "just do it,"
"just do it."
Why don't we slip the other one on quickly.
See how you feel.
See how I feel.
If you feel like it's a competitor, we'll show it.
This is beautiful on you, Shayla, I have to say.
It truly is.
Really?
Thank you, Randy.
OK, we'll see you soon.
- All righty. - Bye!
Bye!
OK, come on in.
Well, we threw you a curveball.
You did. OK.
Oh my gosh.
One step and then up.
They-- they seem so sure about this dress.
I'm going to put the last one on now.
Can I feel that dress before I put it on?
Oh, sure, let me bring it to you.
OK.
But yet, when I touched the third dress--
[LAUGHS]
It's just-- it's so detailed, and I love that about it.
I think Shayla's about to come out
right now with her next dress, so we'll see.
OK.
I can hold you up like this.
OK.
- I'm nervous. - Oh.
Ooh.
OK
They're looking, they're taking in, they're smiling.
Wow.
What do you think?
I like it.
That was hesitant.
Do you love it?
It's everything.
Oh!
What are your favorite parts about it?
It has the different fabrics, like, the textures.
And it has the sparkle a little bit, right?
It has a little bit of sparkle.
More up here, and then tapered off, but in here, too.
I just love how it feels in this area.
OK.
It's everything.
I think you like the fitted.
It's everything.
It's interesting, because I've had such a hard time describing
what type of dress I want.
But yet, when I have this dress on me,
I feel that exact feeling that I can't describe.
I-- I think--
I mean, she feels beautiful in this dress.
I can tell.
Yeah.
I really think Tyler would like it, too.
Oh, definitely.
Because in this one she looks glamorous--
Yeah-- --and sexy.
--which is what I want. --but elegant.
Luxurious.
Yes.
I love it.
It's a total fairytale, too.
Yeah I, really like it.
Well, can I put a veil on your head?
Yes!
Are you going to wear a veil?
I am going to wear a veil.
So I'm going to go grab one.
OK.
This dress is amazing.
It gives a little bit of sexy, but same comfort,
and I just think it's the most perfect dress for her.
You can feel it, right?
Shayla, like-- it's nothing up here.
It just feels-- this is just crazy.
It's just crazy.
Well, I know all little girls dream
about having their wedding and getting married.
Uh-huh.
We almost didn't get to complete this dream.
I'm just beyond blessed and happy that we can be here
with her to get this dress.
You're very beautiful, honey, and don't ever let anybody tell
you anything different, OK?
I feel like a bride.
Well, Randy, do you think that you and I
need to do something right now?
Oh, my gosh!
So his thumbs are up, so OK.
Shayla, are you saying yes to the dress?
Yes!
Woo!
Yay!
Ooh, ooh, ooh!
Yes!
Woo!
Aw.
It's beautiful.
I'm just really happy that she chose the dress that made
her feel the most beautiful.
We did it!
Yeah!
I found it.
Great job, Lisa.
Bye, Randy.
Muah.
Bye.
Bye!
