Dina's Big Fat Jersey Trash Wedding

VH1 TV Shows Music Videos Celebrity Photos News & Gossip


Oh. My. God. Little did we know Dina Manzo (yes, THAT Dina of The Real Housewives of New Jersey) has been exploiting herself on trash TV for quite some time. Behold a 2007 episode of VH1's My Big Fat Fabulous Wedding which coincidentally aired this afternoon, in the height of Housewives mania. Dina and Tommy's wedding had over 600 guests and was held at The Brownstone, obvi. This video speaks for itself and is absolutely worth the 20 minutes it takes to watch, but some highlights include Dina claiming that she wants a huge ass cake with turtles and balls on it, having a meltdown over the wedding song and not being introduced properly at the reception, and buying an ugly-ass $10,000 wedding dress. Which is actually pretty damn cheap considering that the wedding in total cost over 1.1 million dollars, including $350,000 on flowers alone. To put that in perspective, the national average for wedding costs is $27,000, and I'm pretty sure my hick cousins did theirs for under $3000.

Of course Caroline also makes an appearance because remember, this is Dina's wedding to Caroline's husband's brother. They're not just sisters, they're sisters married to brothers. VH1 should have realized that this was pure genius and signed these hot messes to an exclusive contract before Bravo got their hands on them. Someone is so getting fired when they realize this.
