Quote From: taloolahI am aghast! That poor couple to be put on the spot like that! I am sure the girl wanted a nice wedding with family, especially their children present. How inconsiderate of Dr. Phil and Robin to give them such a sterile ceremony. I am angry for them.
Hi, I'm Amber, the girl from the show. And I just wanted to share a few thoughts. Please don't feel angry at Dr. Phil and Robin, we are the most grateful for every bit of the entire experience. We both certainly were on the spot. But if you only knew us and knew our whole story, you would understand that this, even though an untraditional wedding, was the perfect start for our marriage. Everyone we know is sharing how they've never seen us so happy before. It's been a great start! As for our children, we are incorporating them, because without a doubt, they are our priority in life. We are having a wedding "reception" bringing all of our family and friends together to share this awesome moment, and "our family" is the focus. As far as the comment regarding a sterile ceremony. Yes...it was unexpected and unplanned. But as the wedding started, we honostly felt "in the moment". We genuinlly love each each other. The sad thing is that people expect everyone to be perfect, and our relationship works because we love each other through thick and thin.
Much Love (for Dr. Phil & Robin),
Amber & Rich
