Dilemma of the day Recap #2.

Modern Wedding Posted: September 9, 2016

D I L E M M A   R E C A P   # 2.

Dilemma Recap IntroImage2

Dilemma of the day:

“I’m getting married and I’ve overheard that my partner’s groomsmen are organising strippers for his bucks party. I feel really uncomfortable about this and my partner knows how I feel but he’s unaware of the surprise celebrations planned for him. I don’t want to make a big deal of it but I’d really prefer it if his mates didn’t organise this. Am I overreacting? What should I do?” #mwdilemma

Dilemma of the day:

“I’m getting married next year and I’ve asked my future MIL and SIL to join my sisters and I for the dress fittings. My sisters and SIL are in the bridal party so we will also be looking for the bridesmaids dresses. We’ve been to about 3 fittings and my MIL has been horrible to her daughter! She keeps making cruel and inappropriate comments about her weight in front of everyone and I can see that it’s really bringing her down and it’s ruining the mood to be honest. My MIL is so nice to me so I don’t want to ruin our relationship but its really upsetting my SIL, so much so that I can see she is uncomfortable in everything despite looking gorgeous! What should I do!?” #mwdilemma

Dilemma of the Day:

“I have a dilemma.. I was going to ask my highschool best friend to be my bridesmaid and I have been trying to catch up with her but she has been pretending she’s sick or busy but I have caught her out so many times its not funny. I don’t even know how to approach her now or if i should – when i am forever chasing her with very little in return. ( i will add that when we are together its like nothing was ever wrong) Anway, I asked my other best friend to be my bridesmaid instead, but i’m not even sure if i should invite my highschool friend to the wedding or not. I’m really confused and extremely upset. You never want to throw away a friendship, but are all friendships worth chasing over and over?#MWDilemma

Dilemma of the day:

“I was sent an e-invite to my friend’s wedding and she lives in Perth. I’m based in Newcastle, NSW but I was expecting to travel interstate and more than happy to. The wedding invite said that the reception was in Denmark, so my friends and I all presumed it was Denmark, WA. I’ve already RSVP’d but I only just found out it’s actually in Denmark the country! She never said anything about a destination wedding so we were all blindsided. I can’t afford to go over to Europe for the wedding, but I’ve already said yes. The wedding is in a month. What do I do?” #mwdilemma

Dilemma of the day:

“I’m the MOH of for my best friend and she is turning into a bridezilla! She’s asking the bridesmaids to meet every week for the next two months for planning (the wedding is in June 2018!) and isn’t being understanding when someone can’t make it. To be completely honest, I think she’s worked herself up and is getting way over stressed for no reason. I feel like if I say something, I might stress her out even more but if it goes on like this for the rest of the engagement I think she’ll ruin friendships! Should I tell her outright that she’s stressing for no reason and is being unreasonable or are we being unreasonable. How do we handle this without making it worse? Thanks for your help!”#mwdilemma

Dilemma of the day:

“My fiancé comes from a large Indian family. From the outset, I’ve said to his family that I’m more than happy to incorporate their traditions into our wedding. Now it’s getting a little out of hand. I’m happy to compromise and take parts of their customs as well as my own ideas of a wedding, but for my fiancé’s mum, it’s her way of the highway. For example, I’d like to wear the traditional sari to either the ceremony or reception and then a white dress to the other. I feel like it’s not my wedding anymore. I don’t want to disrespect their culture. What do I do?”#mwdilemma
