wedding shoppinh delima

murphy88, 18 August, 2013 at 09:42 Posted on Planning 0 6

Firstly I am on my phone so I appoligise for the spelling or if there are any random words in this!

I also appoligise for another wedding dress post but I've got myself into a bot of a delima and u thought you lovely butchers could help!

I've been puttjng dress shopping off as my sister lives in London and is only back around 2 times a year. She was meant to be coming in Sept and this has fallen through now the next time wil

Probably be Christmas or Jan this wil be a year before the wedding.

I was out shopping wth my parents yest and walked past a shop in my parents local town and saw a beautiful dress feel in love with t.

My mum went in to ask about it. She asked if I wanted to try it on I said no explained abot my sister and low u can't stop thinkiny about t. Found the desginer online and still love it!

My mum suggested asking my sis if it will be ok to make an appointment just to view that dress if it doesn't look right then eiat till she's back to properly go.

What do you guys think. I really don't know what to do!

    I think that if you feel like it might be "The One" then your sister should understand that you don't want to miss out on it! Smiley smile

    alternatively, you could just book an appointment and not tell her..x

    Note to self never do this on a phone. That was meant to be hitchers not butchers.

    I would just phone up your sister, tell her the situation and ask her if she's ok with you trying it on without her. If you haven't tried it on yet you may find it's not right anyway and if it is, maybe she can arrange a special trip to see it before you buy it? I really wanted my sister to come dress shopping with me but fell in love with address before she could, she was more than happy for me to buy it and we've since gone to the shop together so she can see it again and she was happy with that as she knew how much I loved it.

    Call your sister and explain that you've seen a dress and fallen in love with it, send her a link to it. Hopefully she will understand your excitement and encourage you to try it on/buy it.

    My best friend who is my bridesmaid lives in Birmingham and we see each other a few times a year. My mum lives up in Yorkshire, not too far away but very rarely has the same days off as me. I decided I was going to do my own thing and got my dress and sent them a photo of me in it. Mum's response was "tell me you bought it!", best friend rang me up and squealed for about 10 minutes and now can't wait to come up and see me in it. Neither of them was disappointed, but then everyone is different and I don't think they expected anything different from me, whereas your sister may expect to be more involved. Talk to her and see how she feels and make sure she knows how you feel too.
