There had to be drama..... (long)

OK, so my BMs have been really great and I know I shouldn't complain because some of you girls have had tough times with your BMs. But, I am going to complain anyway.......
I just delivered the BM dresses to all of my girls (ordered in NC and taken up to LI last week). Most of them are too big....they ordered up a size for the girls that were between two sizes, which makes sense.
Now, my cousin e-mails me to say that her dress is too big and can't even be altered. She says she is a size 8 and they ordered a 14 for her. She has big hips and we all know that they go by your biggest measurement....and they run small.
She wants me to exchange the dress! Does she think I bought it at Macy's?!? They can't exchange it and even if they could, it would never get here in time!!!! UGH!!!!!! I know my aunt is probably making her freak out. I just needed to vent......

Tell her to relax....Get it altered and be happy about it...They can alter it...My girls are a little crazy sometimes too....Take control, girlfriend!!!

is she a seamstress???? thats what i thought!!

tell her a qualified steamstress will be able to fix it for her and that she needs to stop stressing you, the bride out!!!! you have enough on ur plate.

sounds like she needs a tall glass of shut the eff up!!!

From my own experiences having BM=Drama

Sorry

I would tell her that they run sometimes 1 to 2 dress sizes bigger and it can be altered-and to stuff a sock in it.

why are BMs so blaaaaaaaaaaah soemtiems??

Thanks ladies....I just needed to hear all of that from someone else. FH was no help when I was stressing about it last night!

Sorry you are having dress stress!!

But I just noticed you are getting married at Lombardi's....I love it there!! Congrats!

I was in a wedding in October where I lost like 20 pounds from being measured to my fitting...I wear an 8 in pants...my dress was a size 16...It took like 4 fittings to get it to fit right, but it's totally possibly!
Tell her a qualified seamstress will be able to do it, and sending it back is not an option!!!!!!
