Hello fellow July brides! I have to vent about something that has been bothering me..
A little back story first... My future MIL wanted me to go dress shopping with her. We get along well, so that was fine. She tried on a few dresses..There was one she liked, I liked as well. Her problem with it was that it was navy blue. She didn't think that would be good for the July wedding. Fine. So she goes looking for something similar. She finds one that is pink. It's a nice dress and all..but my bridesmaids are wearing pink. It's not the SAME pink... but it's still pink. And on top of that she plans on getting silver sandals to go with it...Bridesmaids are also wearing silver sandals and she knows this.
When she first showed me the dress I said "yeah, that's nice...but the bridesmaids are wearing pink." She proceeds to tell me that it's not the same pink. Sometimes she even tells me that if I look at it a certain way, it doesn't look pink at all. We were at the mall again this weekend and saw the dress... apparently I was supposed to agree with her that it doesn't look pink..."What does the tag say for a color?" she asked... "PINK"...her reply "does it really?? huh."
My FI has mentioned it to her. She knows how I feel. It's just really bothering me and it's going to continue to bother me. I even forwarded her an e-mail I received from David's Bridal with a similar dress in like 5 colors that are NOT pink. FI said something to his dad today hoping he would talk to her. I just feel like of allllll the colors, she had to go with the one I picked? Previously she said pink made her look washed out. I really don't get it.
