If your mother is not the controlling sort, and has money she (or they) want to contribute, why not suggest this? (SO's parents provided other things, so it wasn't like one side contributed more than the other). Dresses can be altered so many ways, so if you want to use it after the wedding, maybe ask a semstress about what is easier to alter?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7692306869606275386.post-70226310007278574212012-07-31T07:24:54.441+02:002012-07-31T07:24:54.441+02:00I am romantic enough to want a nice dress (and my ...I am romantic enough to want a nice dress (and my current favorite is a gray-blue color). Besides, we're buying Karel a badly-needed new suit, so it's only fair that I get a nice dress :-) <br /><br />But in all seriousness, I would need something a lot more formal than anything I've got in my closet now. The Dutch aren't very formal, but you can only push traditions so far.Juleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15177864294778546164noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7692306869606275386.post-53063155317285495342012-07-31T06:02:26.808+02:002012-07-31T06:02:26.808+02:00Unless you want to wear a dress, why even bother w...Unless you want to wear a dress, why even bother with one? The guests are likely only to remember that you looked kinda or a lot pregnant, and not that you had on a nice white dress - and some years down the road they likely won't even remember you got married after getting pregnant (I'm speaking from secondhand experience - my mother got married, some years ago, while she was about 9 months pregnant with me. No one really remembers the dress or the fact she was very pregnant with me. The fact my mother remembers the most is who she borrowed the dress from, and the fact it was hard to find someone to marry them)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
