My MOH is going to kill me...

Celles

... if I don't stop waffling on bridesmaid dresses.  She just For The Love of Zeus!'d me in an e-mail.  

*cower*

PetraStonegirl

Haahaa! Yup. Sounds like you better get on that.

Anysunrise

I'm so indecisve, I'm just letting them deal with it entirely. I flip flopped on MY dress 100 times before I finally found one I loved.

Jelenny

i suppose that is better than you killing your moh though...

ricksang

I love waffles with lots of butter. :P

Jelenny

waffling makes me think of ONE thing....

Are you kidding?  I'd let you plan my entire wedding by clicky poll if it meant I didn't have to make another decision!  It'd be like a Choose Your Own Adventure book... except lamer, because it's a wedding and so the chances of falling off a cliff or getting eaten by a giant sea monster are rather slim.

Jelenny, that is straight up awesome!

But if there WERE chances of falling off a cliff or getting eaten by a giant sea monster, it would make for a very exciting wedding!

I disagree I would have totally clicked "Edge of a massive cliff with huge man-eating sea creatures circling at the bottom" for your ceremony location.

I think there should be some sort of obstacle course involved that guests have to pass in order to get dinner.

ETA: By "pass" I mean "live through"

Your wedding would be the shiit if you let us plan it for you, Celles.  Look at all the good ideas we're coming up with.

Yes! And I think there should be a distinct possibility of maiming in the obstacle course.  What's a wedding without a bloody stump or two?

I'm all for ninjas.

I think Celles receiving line should be on an old wood and rope bridge that falls apart and you walk across - and be over a pit of lava.

WIN.

Celles, seriously, show us the dresses.

Celles

I already polled E (last week, I think?) so I feel like a total attention whore for doing it again, but ... I'm still on the fence.   

Right now, it's a choice between (a) insisting on my favorite--



-- and (b) letting each of my three bridesmaids choose the style that suits her in the same fabric and color. 

MOH and BM #1 are on board with (a), and are actually pushing for it.  They're my two oldest friends in the world and they know how very rare it is for me to declare an opinion, so the fact that I even have a favorite (they say!) tells them that I really, really want it.  But FSIL is concerned that my choice won't flatter her, and has chosen a different dress that I feel is a little too casual and won't coordinate as well with my dress:



Side note: my choice isn't very flattering until you pair it with a sash.  It doesn't have a waist of its own, so it needs a sash tied either under the bust (to create an empire waist) or at the natural waist in order to drape prettily.  FSIL tried it on in a size that was too small for her and with no sash, so I think she has a somewhat skewed perspective of it.

Anyway, I told my MOH about 20 minutes ago that I was just going to ask everyone to choose her own style within my parameters (short or cocktail length chiffon with satin accents); that's when she FtLoZ'd me.  She wants me to make the decision that makes ME happy and stop trying to compromise -- which runs contrary to all of the advice we give and get here.   

So, yeah.  /waffle

Oh, LedZepp, you are killing me today.  All of your suggestions are perfection. Get out of my head :)

I also just realized I quoted the wrong post.  I love the idea of a rickety bridge over a boiling lake of lava.  In fact, I will be calling my church and venue immediately to see who can arrange this.

In this case I agree with your MOH.  Tell them to get the one you like the best.

As for the dresses, I agree with this.

pirategal03

My girls are choosing their own dresses, and although I went this route because I thought it would have been less stress for me and them, it's ended up stressing them out.  They're so afraid they'll choose something and be the one looking out of place, that they're all turning into wafflers themselves.  No matter how many dresses they show me, and how many times I "OK" them, they're still stressing.

I say go with your first choice and be done with it.  FSIL will come around when she tries one on in her size or she won't and y'all can laugh about what you made her wear at family gatherings 10 years from now.
