My goal for the bridesmaids dress was to pick a color and fabric that
the bridesmaids can then choose a style they will be comfortable with. I
found one option, (I wasn't even committed to this option!) and one of
the bridemaids flipped out about the about $225 price tag.This is just upsetting to me, because of all of the bridemaids this wouldn't be a financial burden for her, and the others didn't care. She stated that I
shouldn't go to a bridal shop because they will overcharge and that you
could get the exact same dress at JCPenny. This would be a huge
annoyance because all of my bridemaids live in different states. I am perfectly fine looking for other, less expensive, options at other bridal shops. It just hurt that she didn't offer to help find the dress but still attacked me about the price. How
should I explain that in order to find a quality dress where people can
choose different styles it will need to come from a bridal shop?
Thanks!
