When a bride has suffered hardship and loss, finding the perfect dress marks a time to look to the future. Bride Heather, who lost her mom at 17, brings those closest to her to find the perfect destination dress, while Ashley brings her dad whose opinion means the world to her.

The competition is fierce at Amanda-Lina's, as brides arrive ready to top the dresses they have fallen in love with elsewhere. Pageant queen Aurajoy is determined to find a curve-hugging gown that "wows", while Cheryl is torn between a dress she has been stuck on and a brand new contender.
