Relax..it will pass and when the BM dress is picked you will forget about the silliness. I think next time you go looking at dresses...bring one or two of your girls...they are the ones wearing them

I dont think you are overreacting. This is your wedding and you want it to be perfect. I think things will get better - best friends fight like sisters all the time. My MOH got mad at me cause I told her from the get go that I did not want her to wear sleeveless and she thought I was being unreasonable. So i pretended like her opinion mattered and let her try on some sleeveless even though I had no intention of getting on. Everything worked out in the end and we both ended up loving a dress and that is what we got (it is not sleeveless). Next time have a mediator there to help maybe, like a mom or an aunt that will be able help you guys see each others point of view.

You are not over reacting! You dont like them now bc they are stressing you out. Before you erase your bridal party, why dont you try to tell them how it is making you feel?

I totally agree try talking to them and letting them know how you feel. Especially if these are like you said long time friends and especially sisters. I hope this helps you all see eye to eye.

Why don't you see what they have in mind?

Maybe some feel that whatever you picked won't look right on them (if some are body conscious).

If you don't like what they have in mind tell them that you have a certain design in mind, that they will ALL look good in it and that for one day, can they please do it?

If they still say no, then maybe a compromise.

But it's not the end of the world. Wait to you get to the other stuff, you think this is a crisis?
LOL I'm only kidding. Sometimes better to go with the flow or you'll be and that's no fun. Bad headaches.

Good luck!

You are not overreacting at all. When I went to look at bridesmaids dresses I took a couple of my girls and told them which dress I liked and they tried it on and they both loved it so I had a pretty easy time. We tried on a bunch of other dress too, and some they loved and I hated and I just told them sorry I am not really loving that dress and then we would move on to something else.

Just be patient and listen to what they have to say and maybe you guys can come to a compromise

Why don't you let them pick the dress and call veto power and teh color. See what they come up with.

See what they like first.

I showed my girls what I liked and the color I wanted and they picked a completely different dress and color (from lavender to burgandy) . . but I LOVE the dresses and I'm glad they picked what they liked. .that way they are comfortable that day too and feel 'pretty' .

You never know you might like what they pick out. . if not . . . try to compromise or put your foot down

good luck!
