Activity for Princess Cynthia

What's your opinion on having a "first look"?

The wedding dress I fell in love with is color champagne which I don't like, I always pictured myself wearing ivory. But davids bridal only has the dress available in white or champagne. I don't know if I should order it or not, like what if I don't...

How do you tell your mom in a nice way that it's your wedding therefore you make the decisions on the wedding not her?
