Yesterday, I was at the mall with my fiancé. I had him sit outside the store while I tried on a few wedding dresses at a store. I found "the" dress- only I wasn't sure if I wanted it in white or ivory. I put them both on hold. My mom, sister, and I were going to go back Thursday (tomorrow) so they cold see the two colors and help me decide.
I also sent the photos of the dresses to my Nana and my Grandma to help me decide. My Nana offered to pay for whichever one I choose. Because of this, I think it is the right thing to invite her. This got me thinking that maybe I should invite my mom, sister, Nana, Grandma, FMIL, and bridesmaid to make a little event out of it- kind of like "Say Yes to the Dress."
My mom is pissed and said that she was really excited but now the whole event sounds "horrendous". She then said that I should have just gone today and purchased it with my Nana if i wanted her there so much. I was so excited for tomorrow before she said that, but now I feel awful.
I feel like my mother is making this about her, but at the same time, I really want her there because she's my mom.
What would you do?
