I would like to know how everyone deal with negative comments or opinions about your wedding?
Here is my little situation:
I am a pretty simple sort of person. I don't own label clothing and I don't like a lot of fuss.
So, when I started dress shopping (so far alone), I always envisioned a plain a-line skirt. I have also always disliked my body and thought I was big because most of my girlfriends are under 5 foot and under 45kgs.
Anyway, now that I have started dress shopping I have actually noticed that whilst the a-line designs are lovely, they do not actually look as good as the mermaid, fitted style. When the dress is done up properly I actually look nice and thin, and not like a massive overweight cow.
Out of the 14 gowns I have tried on...2 of them have been ruffled...much bigger and fluffier and out there than I would have imagined I would have liked.
They have been the only 2 gowns that have really got me quite emotional.
So I sent the photo of the dress on the internet, to my 2 bridesmaids and 1 moh, and they all replied saying that the ruffles will date and that it isn't flattering.
Whilst, I appropriate their comments and I want them to be honest, I am now battling with whether or not to even consider those gowns.
So after all that my question is HOW TO BLOCK IT OUT? How do you ignore the unwanted comments (even when you ask) and how to stop caring so much about what OTHERS like or want.
