Wedding Reality TV Show "Bridalplasty"

I saw this on Perez Hilton's blog yesterday . . . good grief. But if you are interested. . .

Extreme Plastic Surgery Bridal Competition Show Coming To E!

E! has ordered Bridalplasty, where brides compete in wedding-themed challenges to win extreme plastic surgery. The woman will go head-to-head writing wedding vows and planning honeymoons. The winner of the challenge will receive a plastic surgery procedure from her "wish list." She goes into surgery immediately and the results are seen in the following episode.
The show's description states the brides risk "possibly walking away with nothing and losing [their] chance to be the perfect bride." The last bride standing will get her "dream wedding," where she will reveal her new appearance to her loved ones. "Viewers will witness his emotional and possibly shocked reaction as they stand at the altar and he lifts her veil to see her for the first time following her extreme plastic surgery," said E!. The Swan surgeon Terry Dubrow will perform the surgery while Shanna Moakler hosts and Giuliana Rancic executive produces.

Oh, the wedding television shows....

I met with our bride for October 31 yesterday to go over her schedule for the day of her wedding. She started talking to me about Bridezillas episode she saw over the weekend and how much the show scares her. She said, "I don't want to be like that on my wedding day. Please don't let me be like that!"

Here's what you need to know:
1) The show is entertainment. They are real brides, but it's entertainment. The girls are hamming it up for the cameras.
2) They get a free 3 day honeymoon for exploiting themselves on national TV and $2500.
3) Remember the segments are edited. It may not have happened exactly how you see it on the show.
4) The producers always throw one wrench into the wedding. They call the vendor and tell them not to show up, or create some type of drama. It doesn't just happen.

That being said ... it is a real wedding....I guess that piece of it is real!
