Re: inlaws choosing wedding dress

@yanzala

i am really sad about this and i just can’t get over it
everyone’s been telling me that at the end it’s all about living happily with husband, which i am Alhamdulilah blesses with an amazing guy…but my point is that wedding itself is a superficial event. the entire point of wedding function is to get happiness through materialistic things, and i am not getting what i always dreamed of my entire life then i am definitely not going to be happy that day
ever since i was young, i have been obsessed with wedding dresses. i used to save pictures of wedding dresses, i have countless photos of bridal dresses saved up. For my wedding day all i ever wanted was amazing dress, nice photography, and beautiful makeup.
but now when i am getting married, my inlaws told me that in their family they chose the dresses for wedding, and they wouldn’t even ask me the color or style, anything at all.
at first i was a bit relaxed that they might choose a pretty dress but now when i get to know them more i saw that i didn’t like their dress choice at all. it’s completely different from my idea of a pretty dress. And i am % sure i will hate the wedding dresses they give me
i am trying my best to get over it, trying to tell my self it’s ok, but every time i see someone’s wedding pictures, i get really really sad.
I know you guys might be laughing at me for being so materialistic but i can’t help it

even if they don’t ask you- TELL them anyway

just because they haven’t asked doesn’t mean you can’t tell them what you like or find an “in” to influence them (such as your husband’s younger sister or cousin or something that can slyly help MIL choose what you want)
