I'm about to sound incredibly innocent & naive now, but how can they live in trailers when they are having these extravagant weddings? I'm sure whatever they are paying for the wedding can be used as a down payment for a house.
I would rather live in a normal house than to have a guady wedding. LOL.
but wow. I can't believe people choose to live in trailers.
there's a nice little trailer park in Malibu

Yes, i definitely think the mini-brides are creepy and the way they tart up such little girls reminds me of the beauty pageants. Those dresses are costing a fortune too. It just reinforces the concept of the over the top wedding to a young child.
I think that Thelma was the driving force behind the entire show. I don't know which came first, the chicken or the egg. Did a producer approach her or did she go to the TV people with the idea. Either way, it has amped up her business.
This is the link to the original series ... might be more info here.
