I found my dress and love the way it makes me feel however my mother likes another one that I tried on. I am not paying for it my mother is. It is her only contribution to my wedding costs but a big one at that. We started our budget at $500 - $1000 and my dress hits at $1200 (but its half off from original $2400 cause I found it at a trunk show). My question is how much should her opinion affect my dress buying decision? I understand that obviously the price of it needs to be ok'd by her but when the dress she wants me to get is the same price as the dress I love I cant see myself backing down from saying that "its my wedding and this is the dress I see wearing on that day".
Please help, Thank you!
