I mean, one look at the official quote on the subject confirms it: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\"><blockquote><p>As an experienced and stylish businesswoman, Pam Beesly knows that choosing David&#8217;s Bridal, the nation&#8217;s most trusted bridal authority, will guarantee a beautiful wedding.<\/p><cite>David&#8217;s Bridal representative<\/cite><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>That reads a bit heavy on the pitch, right? Gosh, if a $400 gown could guarantee a beautiful wedding, they&#8217;d be routinely out of stock on those suckers. No one would wear anything else. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, this was also an example of product placement done right. We wouldn&#8217;t expect to see Beesly walking down the aisle in a $4,000 Vera Wang, right? So David&#8217;s Bridal was the right pick, even if the marketing folks had to be super-serious with their official quote on the topic.   <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It was Season 6 of The Office when Jim and Pam Beesly finally got hitched.
