 Posted: Thu Jul 21, 2011 9:59 am Post subject: Patterned bridesmaid dresses |
 |
|
My wedding is in October at Jonah's at Whale Beach, so an outdoor, beachside ceremony.
I have 3 bridesmaids - my sis lives in London, my godsister is 16 and lives in Brissy and a close friend who is fortunately in Sydney.
I was dreading bridesmaid dress shopping as to put it nicely, all my bridesmaids are quite chubby and my godsister has extremely large breasts.
I went with my friend yesterday and we tried on a lot of dresses and it was quite difficult. I did find one dress that looked lovely and it was nice and bright which is what I want. It is patterned tho and my mum has this thing in her head that having a patterned dress x 3 will be too much and detract from the bride. I disagree (besides my mum is driving me mad sticking her nose in all the time).
What do you think? |

| I think you should outshine them all and get a dress that shoots fireworks |

Never mind the bridesmaids' dresses, lets get right down to unpacking the oppressive patriarchal institution of marriage

OMG it was a joke m'dear. I like love, I like parties, what's not to like about marriage (between any consenting adults)? Not for me, but then neither are jellied eels and i dont have a political objection to those... Forgive me if my 'joking!' signs weren't plain enough. Mainly ribbing myself in my characature as fad fem.

Hmm, meant to type 'rad fem', but I quite like the new 'fad fem'...
And Moe, three cheers for equality in NY - here's hoping it spreads like wildfire!
