Please let me know if I'm being unreasonable!

Okay, this is definately a little vent but I need to know from other brides if you guys would accept this.....

I'm getting married in 26 days and I asked my 2 only female cousins to be my jr. bms. They are sisters, 9 and 12. The younger one had no problem with anything, very easy going liked any dress I picked out.

The 12 year old has been difficult from day 1, a year and a half ago. Really long story short, I finally gave her an out about 5 months ago bc she would just have a mini tantrum/breakdown bc she didnt like the dress, the colors, anything! So, she decided to drop out. Thats fine, we understood eachother and moved passed it. Shes going to be a 'special attendant' passing out programs and stuff.

A little rewind....my moh is wearing rose petal, and bms and jr bm, fern (in my album). My only sister is my MOH and wanted to stand out so i let her have that color and I'll tie in the bms with lots of pinks in the bo-ks.

Now, less then a month before the wedding and my aunt and cousin decided on a dress and when I went to go see it, the color is 'coral', more like light pink, satin, a-line with rhinestones on top, almost identitcal to the bp. Now after all I have done to accomodate her, letting her help, be involved, still come in the limo, this is the dress they decide on a purchase!!! I thought right away this looks like she tried to match my sister but was slightly off. I just couldn't take it, slept on it for a couple days to think and I finally told my aunt today explaining me and my sister decided she was going to stand out with me and its just too similiar can you please get at least a different color, (even though I want a different dress too). She agreed but seemed pissed.

So sorry it's long but please let me know if I crossed the bridezilla line.

You are not being unreasonable.

When I was asked to be in bridal parties when I was younger, i would have worn whatever the bride wanted and been thrilled to be involved. JMO

I don't think you're being bridezilla.. You've been overly acommodating to start with.. Stick to your guns.

Thank you! I started to second guess myself and maybe apologize to my aunt but she should really know better than to give her daughter so many options. It was hard for me to begin with and knew the whole day I wouldnt be comfortable with it. I was as polite as possible, so I just wanted to make sure, thank you guys so much for your advice!
