ATLANTA – For five frenetic years and nine seasons, Lori Allen and Monte Durham presided over TLC’s popular wedding show “Say Yes to the Dress Atlanta.”
Then in 2015, TLC put the brakes on the show after it decided to cut back on wedding shows and dropped its wedding-themed Friday evenings in favor of crime shows. The last new episode of this spin-off of the original “Say Yes to the Dress” aired in February 2016.
To see it
“Say Yes to the Dress Atlanta” airs at 8 p.m. ET Saturdays on TLC.
Now, two years and four months later, “Say Yes to the Dress Atlanta” returns to TLC for 10 one-hour episodes. The network decided to double the length from its original 30-minute format. Each hour will also include at least one wedding, Allen said.
“We really get into the stories more now,” Allen said. “We can learn more about why a sister of the bride is so upset or why a father of the bride doesn’t want to give away the bride.”
