Wedding Gown Blue Color
One of my bridesmaids doesn't want to wear the color that I picked out for my wedding what do I do.?
The colors for my wedding are Lavender and Light blue and Silver. But one of my brides maids wants to wear burgundy the dress looks like an evening gown instead of a brides maids dress. She is determine to wear this dress.But I don't know how to tell her that she can't wear that dress and she is my sister-in-law.
Well - You can see from all of the answers you've received so far that it's YOUR day and not hers.
Is she your brother's wife or the sister of your groom? Perhaps you can talk to your brother or your fiance' - and let them know that you really want her in the wedding - but that it is your day and she'll have to do what you're asking.
Tell her too - that she CAN wear the burgundy dress to the wedding - but that she won't be able to be part of the wedding party if that's the case - because you really want everyone to match in the pictures and you're trying to have a certain "look and feel" to the day that you've spent your time and energy putting together. And you've dreamed about it since you were a little girl. Tell her that you understand that she wants to wear the dress. Be nice about it. But tell her too - that you have your dream - and this is one dream that you want as close to perfect as possible. AND - that you hope she'll chose to be a part of it in whatever way she thinks is best. DON'T be nasty. It's not worth it. Be cheerful! Give her a choice. She can be in the wedding in your colors or not in the wedding in the burgundy dress. Do it just like you're asking if she wants strawberry ice cream or rocky road. Really!
I don't know how much communication went into telling the girls what they would pay (if anything) and what they would wear - but it's VERY important to convey your needs. If you didn't do it upfront - do it now.
I 've been in 5 weddings now. Each time - the bride picked my dress. One of them was a "ding dong hoop skirt southern belle plantation dress" (I am not making this up) with a parasol and long gloves. It was the ugliest thing EVER - and I paid LOTS of money for it - and never wore it again (but my sister wore it for Halloween one year). One of the other dresses was hand made and the zipper was put in wrong and stuck out horribly right at my butt. It was yellow. I look HORRIBLE in yellow! Once the bride was trying to be sweet and save all of her bridesmaids money - and we all wore these hand made polyester dresses with a bunch of cheap ribbons hanging off of them. One of the brides a few years ago put us all in black waisted poofy, chiffon dresses - and on our heads we wore these HUGE bows - like you would find on top of a present. AND - she had us all do a dance number at the reception! And once - I was the only one in the wedding - the lone Maid of Honor - and I STILL let the bride pick out my dress. She picked out something beautiful - and it was great. But the point is this.... I NEVER SAID A WORD TO ANY OF THOSE BRIDES. I BOUGHT THE UGLY DRESSES AND PUT THEM ON - ALONG WITH THE UNCOMFORTABLE BUTT-UGLY DYED-TO-MATCH SHOES - AND I SMILED. WHY? BECAUSE IT WAS NOT MY WEDDING!! I've never been a bride and I never will be a bride. For me - I don't believe in marriage. But - I DO believe that a wedding day belongs to the bride and the groom and it is everybody else's job to support and honor them!!
Good luck!
