Say Yes to the Dress

Heading to the bridal salon in search of the perfect gown ... it's the ultimate shopping trip that many women have been dreaming about since girlhood. For many, those dreams bring them directly to the New York doorstep of the famed Kleinfeld Bridal. Finding "the" dress is one of the top items on every bride-to-be's to-do list, and TLC's new series SAY YES TO THE DRESS shows that sometimes, saying "yes" to the proposal is the easy part - it's finding a gown that matches your style, image and budget that can prove far more difficult.

The 13-part SAY YES TO THE DRESS premieres on Friday, October 12, with two back-to-back half-hour episodes airing from 10-11 PM ET/PT. Subsequent episodes will premiere Fridays at 10PM ET/PT.

Part bridal story, part fashion transformation and part family therapy, SAY YES TO THE DRESS is wrought with intense drama, as the Kleinfeld team guides each bride-to-be through the process of creating a flawless look for their big day. Each episode introduces three brides who have traveled to Kleinfeld from across the United States and Canada — some arriving with a full entourage of parents, friends, and extended family.

It's up to their dedicated consultant to help find the perfect gown for each bride, but it's not always easy. With competing likes, dislikes and ideas about how much to spend, it's critical that mom, dad, grandma, the best friend and bridesmaids are as overjoyed as the bride herself. Along the way, there are tears of frustration and tears of elation, and SAY YES TO THE DRESS shows how the Kleinfeld team — from Elise, the no-nonsense director of sales who manages the consultants, to spunky, outspoken Keasha and know-it-all newbie Claudia — mixes experience, intuition, hard work and grace under pressure to help every bride feel like a million bucks.

Located on a quiet street in Chelsea, Kleinfeld is a true New York institution. Founded in 1941, Kleinfeld is renowned for carrying the largest selection of exclusive designer wedding gowns anywhere. Ronnie Rothstein, Mara Urshel and Wayne Rogers jointly purchased Kleinfeld in 2000, and moved the store from its roots in Brooklyn to Manhattan two years ago. The new location features a 35,000 square foot salon that runs the length of a New York City block, filled with the world's most gorgeous wedding gowns. Kleinfeld's impressive operation includes 250 bridal consultants, fitters, seamstresses, beading specialists and steam pressers who work to make each bride feel like a million bucks.

Being a bridal consultant is one of the hardest jobs ever. Way too much estrogen in one building. It can get very catty and the mothers are the worst to deal with. Hardly glamorous at all. And all this time, the bridal consultant is trying to keep the peace and sanity. I was one for 8 months. Couldn't be happier leaving. Although it was awesome when you found the perfect dress for the bride and everyone was extremely happy.

I love in one episode Joan says in a really funny nd semi-creepy way "Do you like beading? Does anything grab you?"

Me and my friend can't stop laughing and watching it over and over again!

I tried watching this show but it was way too many people involved in the decision of what dress to buy! Kind of sad really. Made me think what the heck is the marriage going to be like. The salon & workers were all fine.But the families -UGH! One bride talked her mother & bridal party into paying part of the cost for a dress that was about $5,000 over her budget. Love to see the show when that detail starts an argument down the road between all of them! maybe even before the wedding! (lol)
