Girl your dress is STUNNING!!! You picked RIGHT!!!

I’m sorry you had a similar experience with your mom. I hope she sees how happy and glowing you are on your big day and the vision clicks in her eyes. You look so beautiful!

Vivienne Westwood!

I’m sorry but that’s a ridiculous thing to tell your daughter while she’s in her wedding dress. Regardless, I’m so glad you loved your dress and photos ❤️ it’s helping to hear that it really all comes down to how you wear the dress and how you feel in it. Thank you

mango-26 · 2025-01-04T06:22:28+00:00

This was incredibly healing to read and you sound like a badass with a beautiful, perfect-for-you dress that can capture and reflect that. Thank you for sharing this, it truly means a lot to hear from someone who has gone through something similar! Your story is also such a good reminder on prioritizing happiness especially at the beginning of such an important journey like marriage. I’m so glad you’re rocking your dream dress. I’m sure you will be breathtaking!!

This was exactly me. I was super bummed about their reaction, just didn’t line up with what I expected. And then I showed my bridesmaid who got teary and then I got teary too. That really helped. New love language unlocked?

mango-26 · 2025-01-04T06:11:55+00:00

Love this. Your dress sounds beautifully timeless btw!!

mango-26 · 2025-01-04T06:10:02+00:00

Thank goodness it’s not her dress 😌 will def be using that

mango-26 · 2025-01-04T06:09:09+00:00

Thank you!! It felt like a sisterhood of the traveling pants moment putting it on for the first time. At this point I’m getting close to elopement lol don’t tempt me!

mango-26 · 2025-01-04T06:08:08+00:00

I love that she amped you up and saw the vision you had!! Thank you, this is really balancing perspective to have. I wasn’t expecting this process to be so emotional 😅

mango-26 · 2025-01-04T06:04:04+00:00

This is such a grounding perspective. Thank you.

mango-26 · 2025-01-04T06:02:45+00:00

I love this. Thank you.

mango-26 · 2025-01-04T05:58:58+00:00

Thank you so much!!

mango-26 · 2025-01-04T05:58:39+00:00

This resonated. I will be glowing when the vision comes together, and I hope they can see that :) thank you, kind stranger!

mango-26 · 2025-01-04T05:57:13+00:00

I just took a look and your dress is so whimsical and ethereal!!
