**Brad**

It seems me that Brad was OK with his Fi setting "rules" for their engagement and she is OK with him setting "rules for her dress.  If it works for them but would not work for you - why does it matter? That said if your FI is OK with you picking your dress with no input then it should not matter to anyone else.  Isn't all about being capatible with whom your with?

So as much has I hate to do this, if Brad and his FI are okay with giving "rules" on things that even though to me none of that crap makes any sense, they can, I can't imagine him not thinking she was beautiful in anything she wore, but crap, let them suffer imo. That being said...Brad does that mean me working my butt off working out, losing weight for the wedding means NOTHING because my dress is either going to have full crinoline or a hoop? I must say I think its stupid STUPID to say "i don't work out to hide it" I have a FABU A$$ that will not be shown in my dress.

LOL Neilly...I'm still so confused at this post.Oh and yea, I have no rules from FI for his bach, I trust his judgement, just as he trusts mine.

Half dress... oh that's a skirt! That's great. LOL at that one!I don't think FI and I have rules for one another, but we understand that we can request certain things. I showed FI some pictures of dresses I tried on and didn't buy and he said "Is that your dress" I said "No" he said "Oh thank God." haha because it's true... some dresses just aren't flattering on certain people. At the same time, I think if Brad's FI had her heart set on wearing a cupcake dress, I don't think there would be much he could do about stopping her. You aren't supposed to see the dress until the wedding march starts, right?And Bach. parties - I think some people need rules. Not necessarily their FI's but the people throwing them. I wouldn't trust my FI's best man with a 10 foot pole. He's getting a list of rules.

I wouldn't trust my FI's best man with a 10 foot pole.Actually that doesn't make much sense does it? I wouldn't trust him with my FI!

LOL this conversation is absolute insanity... if DH ever told me what to wear i'd slap him silly.  you must be marrying a real ugly idiot if you need to dress them for their own wedding.  sad.

While Fi borders on genius (for real) and in my eyes is yummy to the core a fashionista he is not by any stretch.  I still love him and let him pick his own Tux (but was glad he let us pick my E-ring together)

if DH ever told me what to wear i'd slap him silly.I left that part out of my comment just because I felt like being nice but it's the truth, plus FI wouldn't never LOL

you are right jaime, it is more of a preference than a rule, but rule sounds better, which I thought I posted this comment earlier, but I know some people dont read all the posts, just the OP
