Okay, this is the situation i put FI good friend from high school in my bridal party. She is pretty much a tomboy. We also put her boyfriend to be an usher. So we have an even number. She is dreading that she has to wear a dress to the wedding and keeps mentioning that she pay us off if she doesn't have to wear a dress. So FI called me and told me that he is pulling her out of my side and making her his 'best man' because she doesn't wan't to wear a dress and he is taking out her boyfriend as an usher. So now I need a new bridesmaid and I don't feel comfortable that she is going to wear a tux and be on the guys side. AM I being selfish for feeling this way?
I was at a wedding recently where there were women on the men's side and they wore the same dress as the bridesmaids, but in black. It look very classy.
OMG! No Tuxs! I am sorry to say this but that day is about YOU! Not her! and a good portion of the attention will be on her!
i don't see the big deal. if she is really his close friend and not yours, and she doesn't to wear a dress, let alone a pink one, then let her wear a tux. who is it going to kill? it won't ruin anything for you, and by saying okay to it, you are showing FH that you can compromise which makes you come out on top anyway.
I'm with Eileen - I don't see what the big deal is. If you feel you really can't completely compromise, then maybe she could wear the dress in black. But honestly, if she's an important person to you both, don't you want her happy/comfortable? Do you really want a puss face in all your pics?!?
