Tea Length
Is Tea Lenth appropriate for a formal wedding?
I tried to make it as clear as possible that my wedding is formal. With out being rude.
It is a saturday night wedding. I even mentioned it on the wedding website.
My future sister in law just mentioned she is looking into a tea length dress for the wedding.
My immediate thought was- Why would you want a tea length?? I think it would be nice for a day wedding or even a spring or summer wedding.
We are having a Sat night wedding in November.
As a regular guest, I guess I wouldnt care so much but she is going to be in my pictures.
I am the type of person who always says exactly what I am thinking. This wedding has made me bite my tongue on a lot of stuff with his family. His mom and this particular sister are the type of people that will say that they agree and behind your back talk about it.
I dont want to say anything because she will run to her mom and it will become about how picky I am and how this wedding is so big and blah blah. (he has 2 sisters one is very much a tom boy. Her wedding cost $7k and the one I am talking about would have had a big one but got married out of state and didnt really have the money to have a large wedding or honey moon bc they were trying to buy a house. Which she mentions at least 8 times whenever our wedding is brought up.)
We are paying for our own and it is not extravagant. (no horse pulled carriage or $2000 invitations) It is more than his two sisters have spent but in the grande scheme of long island weddings I think I am middle of the road.
We already own a home and are going to St. Lucia for the honeymoon. So, I think there may be a little jealousy. (I asked both sisters to be in the wedding party but the out of state one said she couldnt because she was trying to get pregnant and probably a little bit of a money issue)
Sorry to unload all of this but I guess I needed to vent and feel out the tea length thing.
