    Dec 18 2025
    Are you feeling pressured to have a "big emotional moment" when you go wedding dress shopping? Guess what? We’re back! After a short break, we’re kicking off our new episodes by tackling one of the biggest misconceptions in bridal.

    On this episode of Every Body is a Bridal Body, hosts Natasha and Kassidy of Versailles Atelier Bridal debunk the "Say Yes to the Dress" myth for brides. We explore why it’s perfectly okay if you don’t cry when you find your wedding gown. Whether you’re preparing for your first appointment at our South Jordan Bridal Shop or browsing other bridal boutiques, we’re here to help you shop with confidence and stay true to yourself.


    ✂️ In This Episode:
    • The "Yes to the Dress" Myth: Why we need to stop letting TikTok and TV dictate what your "moment" should look like.

    • Why You Might Not Cry: From being a logical decision-maker to simply feeling calm and confident, we explore perfectly normal reasons for a tear-free appointment.

    • Real Stories from the Shop: Heartwarming examples of powerful "yes" moments that involved whispers of peace rather than drama.

    • Redefining "The Moment": Why you should chase the truth—how you feel as yourself—instead of chasing tears.

    💍 Episode Summary:

    In this hauntingly elegant episode of Every Body is a Bridal Body, Natasha and Kassidy dive into the shadowy, symbolic, and surprisingly traditional history of black wedding gowns.

    • Why black was the wedding gown of choice for centuries in Europe
    • How Queen Victoria’s grief turned mourning into fashion
