If there's one color that makes David Tutera's skin crawl, it's green.

With only three weeks before the wedding, the colors and too-small venue have to go, even as David remains determined to transform his bride into the African Queen of which she dreams.

While there, the bridesmaids' gowns are swapped out in favor of tribal wraps supplied by Weavers. Then, it's time for a makeover, as Bernadette spends the day before her wedding at Mark Garrison salon receiving a pampering, new hairstyle and a beautiful new African headpiece that helps her become a better bride and a better woman.
