Between the video of "Say yes to the Dress" and the "Lavish Weddings" paper, one thing stood out in common, White is the way to go. In the video there was one woman that initially wanted to get a black dress, but her mother didn't want that for her daughter because it wasn't pure and white. So the woman ended up getting the white dress because it was more pure and the mother thought she was more beautiful in that dress. Another connection from the video to the reading was the "Bigger the Better" type of ordeal. A certain women wanted her dress to be very big and glamorous versus a simple (not to mention least expensive dress) because her dress was $11000!
