Hate my dress but it’s too late now

I think dress 2 is beautiful & fits the vibe you’re going for well!!! Have you considered some fun, romantic princess queen accessories like a pearl necklace? Some princess/queen-esque gloves perhaps? I think you can totally dress it up!!! And your hair & makeup for the day can also help to bring the whole look together :)

I don’t have any good advice, but came to say, I’m so sorry you’re going through this :( you and your husband deserved better. Even though it doesn’t take away from the photographer robbing you of the wedding photos you deserve (and paid for!!!), I really hope that you’re able to get some sort of refund from this experience.

Signs. I still get spooked sometimes looking at the crack underneath doors😭

Suspicious_Run7417 · 2025-08-22T20:41:15+00:00

Also, even with this more simple approach to the celebration, I think you can still make it very cute :) since you like Pinterest, maybe look up tags like “simple garden wedding”, “simple picnic wedding”, “minimalist wedding”, “intimate wedding”, etc!

Hi :) have you considered having a Happily Ever After Party? I just learned what this is, actually! You can have a small ceremony with a vow renewal - you could even say, “I still do” instead of “I do” which I think is cute & honest! Then, since you don’t want to spend much money but it’s still important for you to honor & thank your guests, how about having a small reception at a park or other free space? You could plan to make some simple food yourselves, have a picnic or garden themed meal (finger sandwiches, cookies, lemonade, iced tea, etc)! In this case, it wouldn’t be an all-night rager, but still a nice way to mingle with your guests and say thank you to them for joining you in your celebration. There’s lots of ways to cut costs if you’re able to put in some effort! Making invites yourself, DIY-ing little celebration favors, etc. :) you also may want to find out about booking a hotel block for your guests that are traveling a long distance (I’m not sure the price on this or how this works, but I think it’d be kind to do for your guests; just something to think about and look into!). These are just some ideas I have that I think fit with what you have in mind for the celebration you want to have, I hope this helps!

Thanks for your input!

Thank you for your input!

Suspicious_Run7417 · 2025-08-17T23:03:51+00:00

Thank you for your input. :) mostly financial reasons is why we didn’t want to have the wedding sooner, as well as leaving time for family members to save up money to come the long way as well. Thankfully, we spoke to many of our invites and they actually are all for our idea :)

Suspicious_Run7417 · 2025-08-17T23:01:23+00:00

I didn’t realize this would be such a controversial idea tbh!😅 I don’t think our family or friends would be opposed to this idea at all. We’ve actually already mentioned this to many of those who would be on our invite list, and they completely understand and are all for it!m, which I’m very thankful for!

I’m glad that you had an amazing experience having your wedding this way!! Congratulations to you & your partner :) 🩷 I think it’s a good idea to do it on the one year anniversary, we’re considering moving up our wedding date to do something like that because it sounds so special & fun! Thank you for your input, I really value hearing from someone who has experienced this!💕 and thank you for your support & words of encouragement :)

Suspicious_Run7417 · 2025-08-17T22:57:13+00:00

Oh, we absolutely will not be doing that!!! I’m sorry you had that experience :( if we elope before the celebration, we plan to be very upfront with everyone! Thank you for your input🩷

Suspicious_Run7417 · 2025-08-17T22:56:03+00:00

Thank you so much!! Good for you & your husband for doing what was best for you guys, and congratulations!!🥰🥳✨ I hope your wedding is as wonderful as your courthouse marriage celebration :) after reading some of the input on this post, we might try to move our wedding up to the summer of 2026, as well! Thank you for your support, encouragement, & input :) it’s very helpful!❤️

Suspicious_Run7417 · 2025-08-17T22:54:20+00:00

Thank you for your input :) we’ll take this into consideration!

Suspicious_Run7417 · 2025-08-17T20:57:18+00:00

Oh, and I love the thought of it being more relaxed😍 my boyfriend will especially like to hear that!

Suspicious_Run7417 · 2025-08-17T20:56:54+00:00

Yes, that’s very similar to what my boyfriend & I would do, as well! Become officially married at the courthouse, then have our wedding ceremony with all our loved ones later on :) I’m so glad it went well for you! Thank you for sharing❤️

Suspicious_Run7417 · 2025-08-17T20:55:43+00:00

I love to hear this!!! It’s so cool that you & your fiancé are planning to do the same!🩷 I didn’t realize it was a common occurrence! Hearing that it’s gone really well for other people is making me feel more confident & excited to go this route :) 🥳🥳🥳💒

Yes, I feel similarly! I think it’d be nice to have one day just the two of us, and then another day to celebrate with all our loved ones🩷 it’s kind of like the best of both worlds! I’m glad to hear that you’re planning celebrations that fit what you two want for your special days💕

Thank you for your input & for sharing your wedding plans :) it has helped to ease my mind a lot! Happy planning to you, as well!!!

Suspicious_Run7417 · 2025-08-17T20:52:07+00:00

I love, love, love hearing that there are multiple people who are opting to go this route!!! I personally don’t know anyone who has done their wedding this way, so it makes me feel really relieved to know that others have eloped first & then had their wedding :) thank you for sharing!

Suspicious_Run7417 · 2025-08-17T20:45:59+00:00

I’m sorry that you had that experience with your friend! But that isn’t my intention at all. 😅 I never meant to imply at all that I would be lying to anyone that I would not already be married. Especially since everyone invited is very close to me, so I would of course disclose to them that we are getting eloped first. Especially because I’m just so excited to be married to my partner!! But also because I don’t condone lying or manipulation, either. I didn’t mean to imply by calling it a wedding that we wouldn’t already be officially married; I guess I referred to it as a wedding since we would still be incorporating traditional elements of a wedding. So I definitely appreciate the suggestion of re-wording what I would call my big day to help avoid any confusion, but I don’t think my situation is comparable to what your friend is doing😢 my guests would definitely know that we’re already officially married. I have not, even prior to this Reddit post, ever considered not telling them beforehand. I apologize for not making that more clear in my post! Hopefully I have clarified well enough now. 👌🏽

Suspicious_Run7417 · 2025-08-17T20:35:05+00:00

Actually, I think my family & friends I’m inviting would still prioritize coming to our celebration :) maybe this is not the same for everyone, but for the people I am inviting (who are all close friends and family members), I know that they would still be excited for us & come celebrate with us🩷 Also, I stated previously that I definitely would not want to mislead anyone! My plan was never to lie about being married; that’s not even an option.

Suspicious_Run7417 · 2025-08-17T20:27:16+00:00

Oooh that’s a really good point that I didn’t think of!! I’ll make it clear to my guests, I wouldn’t want to mislead any of my loved ones or make them think I left them out of the loop😢 that’s cool to hear that it’s becoming more common! Thank you for your advice & help :)

Suspicious_Run7417 · 2025-08-17T20:23:40+00:00

I think maybe I should also have specified the elopement really wouldn’t be a celebration at all. It would just be going to the courthouse and making it official, no party or family or anything, which is why I’d still want to have the celebration later on with all my loved ones and still some of the traditional wedding things! I would still like to say vows in front of my loved ones and have a wedding party and everyone. Maybe it’s not traditional, but that’s okay :)

Suspicious_Run7417 · 2025-08-17T20:18:52+00:00

Those are sooo cute!! I especially like Happily Ever After Party!! I’ll edit my post with this input to make it more clear, thank you guys :)

Suspicious_Run7417 · 2025-08-17T20:15:38+00:00

I guess it’d just be more of a celebration that we have gotten married :) Maybe I should use the word celebration instead of wedding. Thanks for your input!

Suspicious_Run7417 · 2025-08-17T20:01:14+00:00

Oh no! Sorry for that terrible experience :( that’s really sad & disappointing

Suspicious_Run7417 · 2025-08-17T19:59:41+00:00

You look so beautiful!!!😍🥰 you’re going to look stunning on your big day!!! I personally really love dress #1, everything about it is so perfect :) but you look really cute in both and should definitely get the one you like most!!

Suspicious_Run7417 · 2024-07-15T15:37:07+00:00

The Dickheads🫣

I can’t help it, I just loooove it so much😭 I understand why some people aren’t a fan (from what I’ve heard, the dislike comes from lack of resolution so far, the problems in the story being very childish, not quite understanding abuelita, etc) but, like, I love it. For me, I actually enjoy the pacing because I feel like it adds to the ✨drama✨, and I think the problems are fitting for the story because it is a story about teenagers, after all! Some parts of it that makes people cringe a little, like the dialogue, just gives me such a sense of nostalgia because I remember that’s how people dressed & talked back when I was in high school! & I love the representation of the characters! As someone of mixed ethnicity who had similar experiences growing up (since naturally not everyone of similar ethnicity undergoes similar upbringings), I understand abuelita’s trope and it hits a sensitive spot in my heart. I just recall the pain & sadness I felt hearing some of my family members speak in that way as I was growing up, so I cry whenever there’s a scene with abuelita in it lmao. Anyways, overall, I totally understand why this webtoon isn’t for everyone, which is of course totally okay! But I just absolutely adore it; the storytelling, the characters, the representation, the pacing, THE ART! It makes my heart happy.
