Do not give her the power to ruin this experience for you!! In you album pictures you look beautiful-Keep in mind that this is without your dress being properly fitted. I do not know what the FU@k she means about your stomach...

Okay. Future Mulligan just made me feel bad and irrational. I just know so many people like this, that I immediately get all carried away and start freaking out. However, I believe she is the cooler head here, and maybe this girl isn't a total skank. If she has acted skankdified before, then my comments stand. If not, then maybe it was just stupid.
Future Mulligan, I owe you a $20 copay for therapy.
well none of us know the girl - so she may very well be a jealous biatch but to me it seemed like the comment in the email was not so much badmouthing - just giving her opinion - an opinion that also happened to be hurtful to the bride - and im sure this girl truly feels horrible - i think that if she was a malicious jealous meanie she would have really trash talked the bride and she probably would have said a lot worse - not that the dress was nice but she didn't think that it flattered one part of her body - to me that's more of an opinion - still gossip, yea kind of, but we ARE women and we do talk about these kinds of things with eachother (hair, bags, jewelry - it happens!) i know that i've put my foot in my mouth before and i have also been in this bride's situation, where you hear that someone said something about you - so im just trying to look at it from both angles....
but she looks fabulous in that dress and i swear i dont see anything unflattering about it at all

I think your dress is beautiful and looks perfect on you! Don't pay attention to other people.

Re: So Upset!
even when it isn't meant in a hateful way, when you find out what someone said behind your back will hurt you. So I have no clue how she meant it or if she is a jealous hateful person or maybe was just critiquing like many of us do.
Now I looked at your dress and don't think she meant you were fat at all because you honestly are not. I think its actually the opposite what she was trying to say. The only thing she didnt realize is that you will have alterations done to the dress so it will fit you better. The dress you tried on, the sample dress well you can tell it is a little big on you and its a little loose on the stomach area. So of course any of us that try a dress that is big on us and bunches up a bit, it will make us look bigger than we are. I think your friend knows how thin you are and sees the dress bunch up a little and think its making you look bigger than you are when you definitely are not. So I think thats how her comment was made. But like i said, alot of people forget that the sample will not look the same on you the way your dress will when it comes in. Your dress will be fitted perfectly to your body and wont bunch at all and will hug your body perfectly and show off your great shape. So i know it sounded bad in the email but i honestly think she meant it as, well i know her body and she looks great and the dress isn't showing it off. That is a GORGEOUS dress and once its in your size and altered it will show off your body amazingly and she will realize how its perfect for you. So maybe even tell her, well you know that is the sample dress and will be altered to my measurements

Re: So Upset!
Bottom line is that the dress is gorgeous and you are gorgeous in it! YOur 'friend' got caught talking behind your back and she should feel stupid and bad at that! Yes we are women and talk smack sometimes... but I see it coming from a place of jealousy in this instance. YOu have it going on... your a bride, and you are going to be on TV! Hell.. I wish I was you too!! Listen eff her... and her opinion at that... You look stunning!

So one of my 'friends' asked me to send her the pic of my wedding gown because she wanted to see it so I did. Last night I got an email forward from her and it was titled 'Re: Lauren's Wedding Gown' and in it she is describing my gown to another friend and says 'I like it but it doesn't flatter her stomach at all.' Obviously she didn't mean to forward it to me. I called her and she was speechless and had nothing to say - I think she was in shock that she accidentally sent it to me. I'm so upset - she has me second guessing my wedding gown! And I'm really self conscious about my stomach as it is. I called some of my bridesmaids and they swear they would have never let me buy a gown that didn't look good on me. I believe them because they are really good friends and are always honest with me. I'm just so upset - that's my wedding gown she's talking about! Plus she's talking about me behind my back. Now of course I don't want to talk to her and she's beside herself calling everyone crying and asking them what she should do. She has completely ruined the whole experience for me!
You are a beautiful girl...u cant not listen to the remarks of a jealous woman. enough said

Re: So Upset!
did she see photos of you trying on the sample? Of course she's not going to think it's flattering if it's not in the right size! Trust me, the sample of my dress did not look very good on me at all!
Do not worry, The Say Yes to the Dress people wouldn't put you in something that makes you look bad, because it is a reflection on them too remember!
Girls tend to criticize and run their mouths and unfortunately you heard about it. People ALWAYS have an opinion, and I'm sure we all have that person who is criticizing our taste, choices, or dresses, but we just don't know about it...
Don't let it get to you. You called her out on it and she feels awful, if she apologizes thoroughly I'd let it blow over. Everyone puts their foot in their mouth and one time or another.

I won't comment on the girl who made the rude comment (aka on here as the jealous biotch) because enough has been said and Lauren- you already know how I feel about her. As one of your best friends I want to tell you again that the dress is gorgeous and looks great on you! Love you!

Re: So Upset!
You definitely don't look bad in the dress, so I wouldn't worry too much about it. It s*cks that she said that, and I would be mad too if it happened to me. But we don't know the girl either. Is she the type that always puts you down and has a comment? If so, then I can completely agree with the other girls and say that she's a jealous beast. But if this is the first time she said something like this (to your knowledge), maybe, just maybe, she really was just stating that she thought the dress could have looked better with a different silhouette, fittings, etc.

Re: So Upset!
Without a doubt the jealousy monster has certainly bitten your 'friend' in the arse in more ways than one. She can go and cry up a storm cuz of the fact that she accidentally sent you the email as well You look beautiful in your dress so don't go having any doubts about that And just know, this girl is going to feel like such a dope the next time she sees you, so eat it up!
