Jocelyn Fernandez was looking for a dress that would make her stand out on her wedding day. Being vocal about her expectations, Jocelyn made it clear she was looking for a dress that had feathers, was shiny and had the three Cs–cute, colorful and chic. 

Her mother, Leathelia Fernandez was not too pleased with her daughter's choices and wondered how good a dress with feathers would look. However, one thing she had been looking forward to was seeing her daughter in a ball gown. According to Leathelia, Jocelyn would look like a princess in a ball gown and was sure that was the type of dress her daughter should wear at the wedding. 

Jocelyn decided to first try out the dresses that she wanted. She found the one with feathers and thought that was the wedding dress she was going to walk down the aisle with but her mind was changed when she showed the dress to her friends and family. They did not think it was the right fit for her and urged her to try on more dresses. 

The second dress left them disappointed again and Jocelyn finally agreed to try a ball gown. When her mother first laid eyes on how Jocelyn looked in it, she was not too happy about it. She seemed disappointed that the dress had a corset. Just when Jocelyn thought her family was done criticizing her choices, she heard her mother pointing out the back fat Jocelyn had. 

To add to this, Jocelyn's maid of honor, Nikki Walker further added to the comment that Jocelyn would be hitting the gym to work out that fat. Undoubtedly, Jocelyn was not happy to hear and decided to confront them about it. Her mother did not hold back and told her that she looked like a 'busted can of biscuits' in that dress. 

Jocelyn decided to laugh it off and said she is working on it and would look spectacular on her wedding day. While her mother's dream of seeing her in a ball gown was shattered, she managed to please her with the next dress. 

The fourth dress that Jocelyn walked out with left everyone satisfied and she admitted that she was ready to walk down the aisle and marry the love of her life. 

'Say Yes To The Dress' airs on Saturdays at 8 pm ET on TLC.
