Re: The Wedding Day Shoe

  • Holy crap, no one cares.  Your shoes won't even show under your dress unless it's ballet length or shorter.

    Also, your sig is huge, and makes my computer cry.

    And finally, here's an article you should read: http://www.slate.com/id/2167299/
    This is a neglected planning bio.
    This is a belated married bio, with no reviews yet because I'm lazy.

    Sometimes I feel like people think that brides are delicate little flower princesses who get all dressed up and pretty for one special moment of their dreams, when really they're just normal people who just happen to be getting married. Things shouldn't have to be sugar-coated for grown-ass women. -mstar284
  • Seriously, not a big deal. Its rude for you to tell her not to purchase a shoe that she wants. Unless you are buying the shoes for them they get to pick whatever they want to wear. If the shoes that she "might" wear  are the same shoes that you "might" wear it doesn't matter, 1. no one will see them and 2, she should be able to buy what she feels comfortable wearing all night.

    It is your wedding day yes, but not your place to pick and veto everything your BM's are wearing. Unless you are purchasing the accessories for them they can wear whatever they'd like.

    Sorry the poll makes me laugh "No bride wants anyone in their wedding party wearing the same thing." She isn't wearing the same thing, she's wearing the same shoes.. you will be clearly distinguishable even though you are twins!

    Dont worry about it, tiny detail that wont even cross your mind on your wedding day.

    [QUOTE]Knotties, I need your help. I am getting married in September of this year and I picked out and purchased two pairs of shoes for my wedding day. I have been unable to decide which pair I want, but I have been measured in both. My twin sister (MOH) sends me a photo of the shoe she is in love with. It just so happens that it is one of the pairs of shoes that I purchased! I respectfully and kindly asked her not to purchase that shoe! She says that she shouldnt have to make her decision on which shoe she wants based on the fact that its a "back-up" shoe!! She claims that she already had to purchase a dress in a color she doesnt want, and now she cant pick the shoe she wants. I try to convey to her that when she gets married, if she wants me to wear puke green, then I would have to. Its MY day. Am I being out of line?

    From my answer on the WP board:
    You're overthinking this.  A lot.  Here's a reality check for you:  what shoes was the bride wearing at the last 6 weddings you attended?  What shoes was the MOH, or for that matter, the entire WP, wearing at the last six weddings you attended?  Can't remember?  That's because it completely doesn't matter.

    You're in a wedding dress.  When exactly do you think that people will be comparing your shoes with your MOH's?

    Let this go.  It's so not worth the fight.
    "Trix, it's what they/our parents wanted. Why so judgemental? And why is your wedding date over a year and a half ago? And why do you not have a groom's name? And why have you posted over 12,000 posts? And why do you always say mean things to brides?" palegirl146
  • Yeah, you are being way out of line. There's only a 50% chance you'll wear that shoe and you've forbid your sister from buying it? Get a grip.
