my daughter is getting married in Sept 2012. She's already purchased her gown, reserved her venue, selected flowers, cake, BM's dresses. She's giving me a rough time about what I'm going to wear. #1, I have a YEAR to figure it out. #2, she's telling me that SHE picks it out, not me (this is according to all the Bride books she's read). I've been married twice. Neither time did I even THINK of telling mom what to wear. She's an adult and was very capable of making that decision on her own. My daughter will be 30 next year. Yes, she's a bit of a diva and has taken total control of all this (which is fine with me!) but I think she's gone a bit too far. I know it's her day, all the more reason that she needn't be concerned with my dress; I would never embarass her. I think it's all a control issue, but I'm not up on current wedding etiquette. Have times changed to where the bride picks the moms' dresses???
oh...she's also trying to tell me where to hold her shower, how it needs to be set up, how much I need to spend (!!). I'm hoping she'll start to chill out in the next few months, since the shower isn't until June '12.
HELP!!!!
