Bodybuilder Bride Wants An Elegant Dress To Complement Her Physique | Say Yes To The Dress Atlanta

Hi. Hey. My pride. Hi. My name is Sarah Hurley. I am 38 years old. I'm from Denver, Colorado, and I am a professional bodybuilder.

Bodybuilding? Yeah. I have been competing since 2007. Last year, I placed third in the world. I'm in the gym about three hours a day.

It can be incredibly grueling, but I love it. This is my fit crew. We compete together. And these ladies are some of the truest best friends that I've ever had.

My fiancee, his name is Barry Osafo Otto, and we met at the gym. Of course, he is also a bodybuilder.

He is buff and yummy and all mine.

Being in this industry can be very hard, but he understands the lifestyle. He's a very strong man, and he lets me sort of have the spotlight.

The wedding is in Cabo, Mexico. Our training schedule can be very hard, so we want to just enjoy ourselves.

That's what's most important. What kind of dress are you looking? I love the one shoulder. I wear this type of dress all the time.

I don't want anything poofy. But make sure I look feminine. When you have muscles and curves, it's challenging to find something right.

My biggest fear with putting on a wedding dress is, like, looking too big. Any of you have a different opinion of what she should wear?

We're kind of all in agreement. Yeah. I definitely want to see something that hugs her body. Tell me about the budget.

The budget is about $5,000. All right, let's take those biceps and put them to work.

Brides with really unique body types often think they've tried it all and that they know what looks best.

This is a one shoulder. Yeah, let's try that. You like that? But bridal is a whole new ball game, and fashion boundaries should be pushed.

That's too poofy, because this is the one day when a bride should look different. Too poofy. Too poofy.

It's all too much poof. Sarah seems to know exactly what she wants. And, honey, I do not want to get in the way of them muscles.

Okay? So I'm going to start with her pick. First bride. Sarah's pick is a one shoulder taffeta. Fit and flare with beaded detail.

Oh, I love it. See, I do looks feminine. It does show my shape. Mm. This is exactly what I sort of envisioned

first dress.

So tell us what you think. I like the asymmetrical. I love the way it looks across my shoulders. The one shoulder is your signature

in this dress. Sarah looks like a physique competitor. I feel like if we take the bottom off, you could wear this at a competition.

Do you ever wear dresses? All the time. I host events, and I'm an emcee. What kind of dresses do you usually get?

One shoulder.

What we have here is a classic case of I know what looks good, so I'm going to buy it in every color of the rainbow.

Do you want to look like you always look?

Nope. On my wedding day, I don't want to look like I just stepped off the stage. This dress should be about Sarah, the bride, not the competitor.

So I'm going to flex my bridal muscles

and show her something she would have never picked out before. I think this full skirt. It'll balance out her broad shoulders and give her a really feminine silhouette.

I agree. Lori's pick is a tulle ball gown with floral embellishments across the waist.

I don't mind it. I like it. I don't mind it. I know you like it. This dress shocks me. I never would have picked something like this.

You still see the nice tone, but your shoulder. Everything's romantic and pretty.

So tell us what you think. I love it. Yes. I think this fabric would be so pretty on the beach. The bottom is soft and flowy.

So girly. What? She looks like a bride. Yes. Before, we were posing looking at our rear end, and now we're just looking at her face.

This dress, I'm doing things I've never done before, like twirling around. I've never twirled. Twirl.

Some of you guys are being awfully quiet back there. I know. I was gonna say that I don't really care for.

Is too fluffy. I'm not sure it's you.

I never thought I would see or anything like that on Sarah. Um,

it's clear the judges opinions hold a lot of weight. I just hope they don't muscle her out of the dress she loves.

Tell us what you're thinking. I feel like a bride in this. It's time for the friends to see that this is Sarah.

It's just not the same version that they are used to. Okay, open.

Now I really look like a bride. Yeah. Sarah looks pretty and happy, and I think this dress is gonna be great on the beach.

It's gorgeous.

She's trying to get me to cry.

So, Sarah, what are you gonna say to the dress?

I say yes. Yay.

Oh, my God. I feel sweet and soft. Barry's gonna love it. Sam.
