My wedding is next April and i have yet to shop for a wedding gown but my sister already knows what she is wearing. I have to admit we are competitive towards each other but when it was her wedding i allowed her to choose my bridesmaids dress because it was her day so I figured she would return the respect towards choosing something not bride related, (not that I even wanted to do that) The dress she wants to wear looks very similar to the dress shown here except it has a lace halter and more beading. i almost died when she showed me the picture. I said "you cant wear white" and she claimed it wasnt white in person that it was light peach. In my opinion if its too light in a picture to tell its a light peach, its too light!! I said i approved the dress but not the color but i don't even like the style. ;( its too much... i was considering bridesmaids but wasn't sure. I was willing to allow them to pick the dresses but now if I do that I know what she will pick...

    I would like to let you ladies know she refused to be my bridesmaid because she wasnt maid of honor. (I decided to not have a moh because i couldnt pick between my girls) she said she would attend the wedding as just my sister. Technically im still not on the clear as to what she will wear..i decided to let it go and allow her to wear what she wants. Its my day and i refuse to allow her to ruin it. Besides she will be the dummy everyone will think she is a jerk for trying to outshine the bride.

    Good for you! Easier said than done but try not to let any of her petty behavior get to you. I hope the rest of your planning goes smoothly Smiley smile

    That bridesmaid dress would only work if you had a giant ball gown for your dress. And it's way way too over the top for a garden wedding

    I just read your last comment, and my sister did the same thing at my first wedding, the nerve of some people!

    I don't think I her sister picked that dress as a bridesmaid. She picked it as a guest. The op asked the sister to be a BM so that op could pick the dress for her sister, but it seems that sister refused and may now where whatever the hell she wants. Is that right??

    If so, your sister sucks.
