Every bride wants to shine on her special day -- from wearing the perfect gown to hosting the most extravagant reception. But what happens when the dream of the perfect wedding turns into a nightmare? Janae knows about this pain firsthand. Her husband, Michael, got so drunk before the ceremony that he passed out cold after saying “I do” and didn’t wake up until the next day!  Janae attended the reception by herself and spent her wedding night with her bridesmaids at a hotel. Their wedding from hell took place two years ago, but she still tears up at the memory of that fateful day. Can she ever forgive Michael's mishaps, or is he doomed to the doghouse forever? Then, Angela is a self-professed bridezilla who makes no excuses for her demanding ways. She even created a newsletter for her bridesmaids with the rules and regulations they must follow to participate in her wedding! Her sister and maid of honor, Vanessa, worries that Angela's nitpicking will cause her fiancé, Marvin, to run for the hills. What's behind Angela's controlling behavior, and is she headed for heartache on her special day? Share your thoughts here.

Find out what happened on the show.

02/22 Hell Weddings

Quote From: mhcalum

The only thing I kept wondering about Angela was why she felt that her husband to be could not wear a cream tux if that is what he wanted. She kept insisting he was too dark for cream...I don't get it, but if he is too dark for cream, why is it ok for her to wear white or cream? She just doesn't make any sense. If she wants to look so great, in her way of thinking, shouldn't she be wearing a different color for her dress? The entire show just didn't make much sense to me. Why would anyone want to marry her or be in her wedding?

You don't either

  And maybe he didnt want to.

I thought so too!

Quote From: momnique

Michael, got so drunk before the ceremony that he passed out cold after saying I do.

I do believe that in most states, you have to be sober, not have been forced or coerced,  in order to sign a marriage contract, otherwise the contract is invalid.  The way I see it, the contract is invalid and they are not legally married.

I also have to wonder why he felt compelled to drink so much as to become so intoxicated before the wedding ceremony?

I mean like really, if some one has to get bombed before they say I do, then they shouldn't be saying anything at all....

Comments for todays show

Dr Phil,

I agree to a certain point that a Wedding Day is usually for the Bride,but the Bridezilla on your show, had me on my seat.  I always believed that a Wedding Day was for both the bride and groom, and therefore believe that both parties should be involved, especially where finances are concerned.  I  could not imagine for one minute, demanding things to be my way at any expense on OUR day. 

I have a very open honest relationship with my Common-Law, and include him in any decision I make, right down to the smallest things like renting a video.

I am also quite surprised at how many women think that they must have an expensive ring to complete their marriage.  I always believed that marriage was all about love and wanting to share your life with your soul mate, and not about how much you feel you are worth.

My heart truely went out to that poor groom on your show, that had no say in his Wedding Day, and or costs.

All I can say, is that I hope that Bride looks back at this program one day soon, and realizes how unreasonable she truely is, and question herself, whether it is worth loosing a amazing man, and great friends over her controling behavior.  I am apolled.

I am so happy that I dont have a price tag on myself.  For all I care, my guy can get a ring from  lucky egg machine (It's what i sybolizes that meanssomething to me) , and I wouldnt love him less, and I would still want him to have say in our day, Because I truely believe that we both should stand out on our day, not just me.  The marriage is for the Bride and Groom.

Thanks for hearing me out!

02/22 Hell Weddings

Todays show (2-22-08) made me cry.  A young woman sat weeping that her husband ruined their wedding and she couldn't get over it.  You gave her a wedding and reception to make knew memories.  I wanted to jump through the TV, shake her and make her spend one week in my 19yr. daughters shoes.  Then maybe she would feel blessed to have her life and her husband.  My daughter has two chronic diseases; Interstitial Cystitis and Vulva Vestibulitis with Pelvic Floor Dysfunction.  It is extremely rare for her age. She has suffered for 5 long pain filled years.  She is at the point where she is wanting her bladder removed.  And yet there are woman out there who have nothing more to focus on other than what this woman has.  Why couldn't Dr. Phil tell this lady to grow up, not give her another wedding and reception!  My daughter thinks she will never have a man love her or want to marry her because of the complications associated with this disease and here is a woman who has a man that loves her, he just made a stupid mistake.  God help him when they really have trials during their marriage.

SELFISH BRIDES

You women are such a JOKE!!!!! Your marriage is about SO MUCH MORE THAN THE WEDDING!!!
I met and married my husband while we were both in the Navy, and not near any of the families.  We went to a preacher, and got married!!!! We had no ring and 2 witnesses!  Since neither family could come (it wouldn't be fair it to be in my home town and have his family travel, nor would it be fair to have it in his home town and have my family travel). so we did it on our own!! And we have been happy for 16 years!!!!

Sure, who doesn't want a wedding, and the bride who is getting "another wedding from Dr. Phil" is SUCH A HUGE JOKE  because she doesn't have any good pictures... (WE HAVE NONE!!!!) her hubby needs to grow some and take off her panties and stand up to her!!!

Hey Dr. Phil, would you throw me and my active duty Navy spouse a wedding???? I didn't think so!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

02/22 Hell Weddings

I just watch the show about bridezilla. There is know way that she can really love the man that is to be he husband. If she did she would want to make him happy and not just herself. Then there is the money part of it also.When we got married all I wanted was to be able to spend the rest of my life with Ken I would have married him in a regular dress if that is all we could of had affored. I did have a very beautifel wedding day white dress and all. I would never have thought of putting us into debt just for one day out of our life when we would have many more to be together. I knew that GOD had put us together and there was a reason for the two of us to be together. I met my husband when I was only 15 and he had just come home from Koera. We both kknew that we were ment for each other we went together for 3 years because Ken said we would not get married until I could sign for our wedding license by myself. I finished high school and 2 weeks after I turned 18 we married. We were married for 49 years and Ken then past away from termal cancer but be have 52 years of being together and were very happy and loved each other a lot

Hell Weddings----RUN MEN RUN!!!!!

I don't know what happens to women that makes them think they are entitled to run all over people and justify their ridiculous behavior by saying "it's my wedding".  Get over yourselves ladies-it's a shame we're still filling little girl's minds with "your wedding is the most important day in your life...you should look like a princess and be treated like one by everyone involved....money doesn't matter as long as you're happy..it's your day...blah blah blah."  Women need to get over this whole idea of "princess for a day".

angela the BRIDEZILLA

What a B&%&**!

 

This is not HER day this day should be for both.  She is being very unreasonable and the groom seems to be a really nice guy who will end up very unhappy in the long run.

Ruunnnn Marvin !!!!

I am watching the Dr. Phil show angry at the nerve of Angela. First and foremost before expecting perfection from others she should expect perfection from herself and perhaps instead of focusing on spending all of Marvins money on the wedding she should spend some of that time at the gym. That might be a petty remark however she is everything that most men I know do not want, and I think if Marvin allow her to continue he is setting himself up for an unhappy marriage and life.  Marvin seem like a nice guy but sometimes nice guys are ran over.  She does not respect this man or others and as a single, attractive woman it makes me mad to see mediocre women such as Angela be such a controlling witch.  She has deeper issues !!!

 

If Dr. Phil does not advise these two not to get married ...I will consider not watching this show again.
