Need advice please...

My future mother-in-law thinks that because she is paying for the flower girls dress that she can pick it out...My dress and my bridesmaids dresses are very plain strapless, satin a-line gowns...I am going for a classy clean look...She wants to put the flower girl in a dress that is beaded from head to toe with a train which is the opposite of what I pictured...I need advice on how to deal with this sitution...I have showed her flower girl dresses that I like and I have told her many times that I love the clean look without any beading...Please help!!!!!

My only advice would be for you to pay for and have it the way you wanted. If you want something very simple they shouldnt be that expensive.

Can you ask your FH to maybe speak to her. Have him explain that while you guys appreciate her apying for the dress you are going for a certain look and would love to see the flower girl in a certain dress.

IMO-You should pick three dresses you like and then give her the option of picking one. IF you give people too much to choose from, they will inevitably pick something UGLY!

It is your wedding so you should have the final say on what you like. I am not paying for my FG dress and I did let my FG pick what she liked but it was also something I wanted. If money is an issue, I would offer to pay myself.
