Christine Brown, star of TLC’s Sister Wives, experienced the joy of wedding dress shopping in a recent episode. The 52-year-old, who married David Woolley in October 2023, shared the special moment with her daughters Aspyn, Ysabel, Mykelti, and Gwendlyn (via FaceTime).
In an exclusive clip shared with PEOPLE, Christine tries on a lacy white gown and radiates happiness as her daughters admire her. “It’s beautiful,” Christine shared in a confessional. “I’m already in love with it. Hands down, this is a huge success.” She added that the dress made her feel “beautiful, glamorous, and sexy,” echoing the sentiments of her daughters who confirmed it had every feature she desired.

Aspyn commented on how “really good” the dress looked, while Mykelti declared it “gorgeous.” Ysabel went further, calling it her favorite of all the dresses Christine tried on. The overwhelming support from her daughters clearly meant the world to Christine, who referred to them as her best friends.
The emotional experience of wedding dress shopping with her daughters was a first for Christine. Previously in a polygamous marriage with Kody Brown for 25 years, she had never felt the joy of this traditional bridal experience. “I had no idea how incredible it would feel to look at wedding dresses with my daughters,” she confessed. “It’s so good.”

When asked if she finally felt like a bride, Christine’s affirmative response was followed by a more poignant reflection on her past. “Not like this,” she admitted, acknowledging the unique and fulfilling experience of finding her dream dress with her daughters by her side.
Christine’s desire for a traditional wedding experience was a key factor in planning her nuptials with David Woolley. Woolley shared with PEOPLE that Christine had always dreamt of wearing a white dress and walking down the aisle with her father, a dream she hadn’t been able to fulfill in her first marriage. He emphasized her desire for “all the bells and whistles.”
