Comment FMIL Made this weekend - opinions?

Original post by ealvarado0178

Hi Ladies,

This weekend, FMIL made a comment to me that I did not appreciate. She asked me if I was going to get a veil w/ a blusher. I said that I already got my veil when I ordered my dress because it was a perfect match for the detailing on my dress, and that yes it had a blusher. She asked if I intended on wearing the blusher over my face, because she is very old fashioned about that. Basically inferring that I shouldn't! (A little background on this to help you understand my situation- I have been with FH for 61/2 years. We've lived together for 5 of those years, and we have a 3 year old son.) I have never been married, not has he.

While I am far from a virgin (or virginal-he,he), I always dreamed about my dad lifting my veil on my wedding day. Now I don't know if I should. My Dad is a reverend, and will actually be the one officiating our ceremony. He has not asked the blusher question! Now I feel like she has rained on my parade, and I don't know if it's OK for me to wear the blusher.

What do you ladies think? What's the ettiquite on this?

Isn't the point of the blusher to hide your red cheeks because you know you shouldn't be wearing white??

Is there a polite way to tell her to 'sit on it'?

She put this nicely. But I agree!!!!

i dunno anything about what the etiquette is on this, but i think that it's your day and you should do what makes you happy. if you've always dreamed of wearing a blusher, then do it!!!



I couldn't agree more! Ask your Dad about it, but I say do what you want it's your wedding!
