  • Hi, Lillian, I'm Audrey.

  • My name is Lillian Hardin, I brought with me my mother, Peggy, and Carla and my husband, Kevin.

  • - How did the two of you meet? - Um...

  • We met at Walter Reed Army Medical Center, when I was his non-medical attendant.

  • I was deployed in, uh, Samara, Iraq, and I was a medic.

  • He was there getting ready to actually go home.

  • We got ambushed; anti-tank missile came through the hum V, right through me; I had three pieces of shrapnel in my brain, almost took off my whole left hand and right hand.

  • He had, altogether, 34 surgeries.

  • Even to this day, I'm still going through rehab.

  • I wouldn’t have been able to do any of that without Lillian, you know, and I love her.

  • - As far as price point... - We have a budget of 2,000 dollars.

  • My name is Carla Marrero and I help with an organization called Christmas Can Cure.

  • So, we're going to pay for Lillian's wedding dress and were going to actually put on their perfect wedding.

  • What do you see Lillian wearing?

  • She's always been my little princess, so

  • You’d like to see her in something princessy.

  • Yes, I would.

  • People have asked me before if I regret, uh, anything that's happened to me, like, my injuries or whatnot.

  • Things have a weird way of working out; [inaudible] meet the woman of my dreams.

  • I don’t know what I’d do if I never met her.

  • I'm gonna cry because this poor boy, who was very badly hurt and he is not the least bit angry, and to me, that's what makes you very, very special.

  • Wow.

  • What do you guys think?

  • I think it’s perfect.

  • It is; it's beautiful.

  • Right, when she walked out, I would loved to... have that feeling, like, at the wedding.

  • Yeah.

  • - She definitely needs more sparkle that's Lillian. - I am... I am a very glittery...

  • - She's very, very... - ... person.

  • - Okay. - Didn’t give the wow factor.

  • It's not my daughter.

  • Now that were having a huge ceremony, I actually want to be surprised when the actual ceremony happens.

  • Come on in.

  • After seeing how you looked in the first dress, as beautiful as you were, I really want to be surprised for that day.

  • I think I should wait outside.

  • Okay.

  • - You okay? - Yeah.

  • - Babe. - I'm fine.

  • Give me a kiss.

  • I love you.

  • I love you too.

  • Kevin had the sensitivity to realize he wanted to be surprised on their wedding day.

  • Wow.

  • Ladies.

  • I absolutely love it.

  • That's the one.

  • Yep.

  • Lillian found the perfect dress.

  • It is beautiful.

  • So, is this your dress?

  • I think so.

  • This dress is the dress she needs to be in.

  • It’s gorgeous on her.

  • The only problem is it’s 1,000 dollars over her budget.

  • - 2,000 is the budget. - Okay.

  • How low can you go?

  • 1,599?

  • Ah!

  • Okay.

  • Dorothy brings the dress down from 2,900 to 1,599.

  • Miracles do happen.

Hi, Lillian, I'm Audrey.
