Attack of the Clones

So sorry this is happening to you when you are planning one of the happiest days of your life. Hope it works out and sending you lots of hugs!

I'm going to keep the dress. I think I deserve it. They couldn't go along with my simple wishes in 2009 and this time we are celebrating our marriage so I think it isn't too much to ask. If they want to be the way they usually are them they don't have to be in it honestly.

I have to agree 100 percent with Nicole. And confidence in day to day activities isn't always the same as really being confident. Maybe your sister is comfy in her zone, but if this is a way different look for her, it might freak her out a bit. It's definitely an extreme look, but it's a great dress! I think if it matches your wedding really well, and as long as the BMs are tall enough (because I do think this wouldn't look good on a short person even if they are skinny) then they should suck it up and wear it.

I would have them try it on and see what you think. You might decide they don't look as good on, or maybe you will love them even more.

I've heard you mention your family before, you know I love the dress and they would look great  the dress from the pics in your bio, I don't think it's a confidence problem it's just the same old problem. From one Cinderella to another keep the dress, have them try it on, if you get a negetive response have them do something else in the wedding where they can wear what they want.  Good Luck!

Well, All I can say is that it is your wedding do what you want! However, be prepared that they may back out if they have to buy the dress and they really do not like it. I know that if I had a real objection to a dress and I was paying for it I would probably opt out.
