Don't Tell the Bride viewers react as bride is left devastated over £150 dress & snooker hall hen party
We all know how Don't Tell the Bride works by now: the groom gets given a budget and blows most of it on an extravagant stag do for him and his mates, leaving absolutely no money for the hen do, the dress, or even the wedding itself. The bride isn't happy about it, and ponders calling the whole thing off, but eventually goes through with it.
Last night's (February 24) episode was no different, but perhaps was one of the most extreme examples of a groom throwing the money into the wrong things we've seen on the show in a while. No wonder they made it a 90-minute special.
Andrew's bride Anna is from Ukraine, and he has decided that their wedding should be a traditional one in her home country. Unfortunately, she wants a ceremony a posh British manor house.

His traditional ideas extended to the dress, but his budget definitely didn't. Anna opened up her dress to find that it contained gaudy red parts, was practically see through, all the beading was coming off, and it only cost him £150.
"I don't think the person who made that dress, likes that dress," she told the camera, while looking clearly devastated.
Her bridesmaids were similarly dressed like 'elves', as they put it, while the hen do took place in a snooker hall with a measly £100 put behind the bar.
Meanwhile, Andy's stag do took up most of their budget, and involved the lads hanging out with dolphins. No wonder she almost called the whole thing off.
Fans had some pretty strong reactions to the episode:
“I didn’t realise that the dress meant so much...”
HAVE YOU EVER WATCHED THIS SHOW, OR BEEN TO A WEDDING, OR EVEN SPOKEN TO A WOMAN BEFORE?!? #DTTB pic.twitter.com/Kos6j2hhcE— Gary (@upthegary) February 24, 2020
I like Andy. He means well. Lovely guy. He should never be allowed to make any kind of decisions, like ever. But his heart is in the right place. #DontTellTheBride #DTTB

I don't know what the bride is pissed off about. A snooker club is a perfectly good place for a hen do.
As the saying goes: "something old, something new, something borrowed, pot the blue"#dttb#donttellthebride— Füzžy📺Böx™ (@FuzzyTellybox) February 24, 2020

Every time I watch this show it makes me wonder if the couples actually even know one another in the first place 😂 I’m doubtful. #dttb

Well. This is all going wonderfully. The bridesmaids are crying. The mother-in-law is furious. The bride’s dress is like something you’d put on a knitted doll in 1992 and Andy’s spent all the money on walking aimlessly around Kiev. Congratulations! 👰#DontTellTheBride #DTTB pic.twitter.com/mb6lePoXka
