DILEMMA OF THE DAY RECAP #20

Modern Wedding Posted: February 4, 2017

D I L E M M A   R E C A P   # 2 0 .

Dilemma of the day:

“My sister’s wedding is only a few months before mine and I’m thinking about re-using her bridesmaid dresses for my bridesmaids. Our chosen bridesmaids are roughly the same size and shape and the colour would suit anyone. I’m trying to think of ways of saving money and this seems like a good option, but everyone in my family is against the idea. Do you think it would look weird if I used the same dresses as my sister? Any ideas on how I could make them look different? Thanks”

Dilemma of the day:

“My fiance and I are planning an outdoor wedding for next summer but we’re afraid that it’s going to really hot! It’s in the country so there won’t be much of a breeze and when it get’s hot, it’s really hot! The reception should be fine, but I’m just worried about the comfort of our guests for the outdoor ceremony. Is there any thing we can provide that might help? We’re planning on having hand-held fans and it will be shaded… Ideas please!” #mwdilemma

Dilemma of the day:

“My fiance and I picked our flower girls in July last year when we initially got engaged. One of the flower girls is my future sister-in-law’s daughter. She’s recently become extremely shy. She doesn’t like to be anywhere without her parents and gets really upset if she isn’t by them. Her mother says it is fine and she will grow out of it but wouldn’t want to stress my niece out by trying to get her to walk down the aisle in front of all those people. I can’t really say anything more to my future SIL because she’s sure that her daughter will grow out of it. Should I worry or just let it go?” #mwdilemma

Dilemma of the day:

“My fiance and I are getting married next year and we really would love our beloved dog to be our ring bearer! This is something we’ve always wanted but we know that a few guests are scared of dogs and we thought that maybe some people might be allergic to dogs. We want to be considerate but also have our hearts set on this. What can we do?” #mwdilemma

Dilemma of the day:

“I’ve started looking for my wedding dress and have invited my bridesmaids, mother and future MIL to come along. My fiance’s family is quite traditional and my future MIL is being quite vocal about the style of dress I should wear. I really want to wear a gown with a low back but she is against it. I don’t want to start off on the wrong foot with her but I also want to wear the dress that I want…. what should I do?” #mwdilemma

Dilemma of the Day:

“My husband and i have had to change our wedding date due to finances and I’ve now got to send out ‘change the dates’ but i don’t know how to word it! Can any of your lovely followers help me out?
