So I’m getting married in September next year (yay!), and MIL has already asked THREE times what my dress is going to look like, so she can “go accordingly”. My fiancé replied (all three times) “you can wear whatever you want BUT WHITE/CREAM/CLEAR PASTELS, of course”. What I didn’t like was that she didn’t say something like “oooh, no, no way, I would never wear white”… but she just stayed quiet. She insisted on the need to know what I will look like, her son kept on saying now white… and I, to make it less akward said “I understand you mean you need to know if I will be very elegant and classy or more relaxed, so you don’t wear sequins and feathers if I am more casual, don’t you? You would never wear white, of course”. She said yes. But has repeated it more times and it never came out of her – saying no to wearing white.
Of course, it is my wedding, I want and am going to look fabulous. But I have a feeling that she has a hidden agenda.
My mom says to let her do whatever she wants and that, if she ends up wearing white, everybody will point at her. I thought of, the next time she says something, telling her “as long as you don’t wear whitish colors, wear a night outfit and feel pretty, that will be fine, but I will not be able to tell you exactly what I will look like”. But… it freaks me out a little.
Any thoughts? Thank you all 🤗
