My stepmother told me the other day, that she is going to wear the dress she wore to her wedding with my father last year to my wedding. It is a cream colored dress. I am a little upset. Everyone is getting new dresses and I just think that her WEDDING dress is a little tooo dressy for my wedding. It doesn't look like a typical wedding dress, as she was 60 when she married my dad, but I still know and so does the rest of the family that will be at my wedding who were at hers. Plus, I don't like the fact that she is going to be in such a light color that is somewhat close to white. She bought new dresses for her own sons weddings, why not mine? And she is not broke, she can definitely afford a new dress. I am wrong for being a little upset?
Hell, yeah, I would be upset. Whether it looks like a 'wedding dress' or not, I wouldn't wear it to another wedding, especially not to one where half the people there were at my wedding and saw me in it!! Plus this goes back to that other thread about the brinde being the only one in white or anything close to it.
Your feelings are never wrong because its how you feel and you have a right to your feelings. I would hope she would have gotten a new dress too.
I think it would be better if she could find another dress. However, I know how time consuming and costly this can be. I guess it's best just to talk it over with her.
