Do you think I am crazy to ask my mother to stop

smoking in the house (Where I will be getting ready) a week before the wedding? I am nervous that my white silk gown we ordered will turn yellow and I don't want to smell like smoke on my wedding day.

Re: Do you think I am crazy to ask my mother to stop

i think that makes perfect sense!
maybe you can ask her to stop for a bit longer than a week......

That makes perfect sense. She should understand that.

Makes perfect sense to me. However you might want to try to get her to stop for longer than that as plaebride said.

I don't think you are crazy to ask, but just from how I know my parents are about their right to smoke in their own house...blah, blah, blah...if I asked it would probably be wwiii...but good luck!!!

Re: Do you think I am crazy to ask my mother to stop

Palebride it is funny you say that because when I was talking to her about this my 8 year old brother was sitting there and he turns to my mother and says you should stop now. I know she wants to stop smokin but it is hard for her, and I would like if she stopped maybe 2-3 weeks before the wedding but I think I am pushing it and am being fair with asking for a week. Thanks guys

Hi Adrianna,

This is your mom:)

Yes I won't smoke the week before in the house even though I know the dress won't turn yellow...but for my pumpkin I'll do it ok?

I like the new pic of you and Chris by the way!

Love,

Mom

I don't think your wrong at all, in fact I doubt I will be getting ready at my moms house because her boyfriend smokes and I don't want to smell like it!!

Re: Do you think I am crazy to ask my mother to stop

I have been stressing the same thing!!! We thought we were getting married at the hall.. so I was going to get ready there... but now that we are getting married at the church and my mom does live up the block - Im getting ready there... and it smells like smoke all the time!! I really want to ask her but I know she'll be so stressed out she'll do it anyway plus its feb. its a little cold to go outside

My other option is getting ready at our apt. but its a little small and my moms house is nicer for pictures
