The wedding date is approaching, but my aunt said that my wedding dress is very simple. Now my whole family is looking at me like, “What’s the deal with that?” and I’m feeling down. I don’t want to listen to everyone’s criticism at my wedding, but I don’t know what to do about it.
something similar happened at my wedding. one of my cousins said my wedding dress was too puffy, just nonsense. but I mean, if we listened to them, we shouldn’t have even had the wedding. don’t let it bother you, just forget about it.
What reaction did your family have to your aunt’s remark? Did they stay silent, or did they defend you?
@kahvebitmeden my family honestly didn’t say much, they just shot me an uneasy glance. But my mom seems to be a bit affected too.
but now the family is going to react a little too. if everyone is going to change their attitude just because someone criticized the wedding dress, we have a problem. why haven’t they stood by you?
I think you should just tell halana directly, say that you don’t want her to comment like this at my wedding. At least the boundaries will be clear ![]()
In wedding planning, sometimes this is critical: are you open to criticism from the start or not? Everyone is looking for the perfection in their own head. If the wedding dress makes you feel comfortable, I’d say don’t bother with extra things. Forget about your aunt ![]()
You seem to be quite frustrated even while writing about the problem here, but it seems like you’re also putting some blame on yourself. Just because your aunt said it, does that make it simple now? ![]()
come on, at every wedding there’s always someone who’s going to ruin the mood
@makarnaoncesi is right. The topic owner already seems anxious, why did you blow this out of proportion?
Is the comment about the dress criticizing its price, its style, or both? I don’t understand what the criticism is based on. If it’s just about their taste, then it’s not worth discussing, but if they are implying something else, that’s a different matter.
