VH1 has released its summer lineup, and it includes the live wedding special of "Love & Hip Hop: New York's" Yandy Smith and Mendeecees Harris.
Viewers have witnessed every part of the couple's relationship through the years, and fans have seen them become parents, deal with Mendeecees' incarceration, their separation, and eventually, his conditional release. Now, fans will have the chance to watch the two wed live as it happens.
Weeks before the wedding special, VH1 premiered a mini Web series titled "Yandy and Mendeecees Getting Married" which offers a behind-the-scenes look at the making of the couple's live "Love & Hip Hop" wedding. In the six-part series, VH1.com's Shirea L. Carroll followed the pair, their families, and their friends to document all the wedding planning aspects. The Web series covers everything about their relationship, from how they first met, right down to Mendeecees' romantic proposal.
VH1.com has just aired the fourth installment of the series, wherein Mendeecees' mother Judy had a bit of a tiff with Yandy as she revealed why she doesn't feel respected by her future daughter-in-law, something which Yandy denied. Eventually, when Judy felt that Yandy wasn't too concerned about her feelings, the two got into a massive fight, and Mendeecees found himself stuck in the middle of it.
Prior to their walk down the aisle, the couple stopped by "Big Morning Buzz Live" to give fans all the details about their wedding, from Yandy's dress to the menu.
When Yandy was asked what her dress was going to be like — whether it's going to be modern or traditional — she said that Mendeecees knows what her dress is going to look like since she has been talking about it since the day they met.
"It's going to be Cinderella," she said of the dress.
When host Nick Lachey asked them about their vows and whether Mendeecees was going to write one or whether he's going to rap, the rapper said, "Oh yeah, I'm gonna go do it freestyle."
Fans can watch Yandy and Mendeecees tie the knot on "Love & Hip Hop LIVE: The Wedding" on Monday, May 25, at 8/7c on VH1.
