How do I tell my mum I don't want to wear her dress?

Speak to your mum and say 'my wedding dress is a part of my signature style for my wedding day that will reflect my identity of who I am as a person, and showcase my essence that will reflect the future with my husband. *(And the look I am going for is not 1986'). However, to not cause any tension during this auscpicious occasion you could incorporate pieces of her dress such as the lace or her veil. P.S congrats on fitting into your mothers wedding dress.  

* only use this comment in case of emergency

Wish you all the best xx  

Take mum wedding gowns shopping tray some one mum will see the difference and be happy with you choice

Hi dear bride

This is what I as a designer face it frequently!!!Mums have a vision of their daughter to get married and obviously it is very difficult for bride to disagree with her vision ,however remember it is important for you to feel good on your wedding day ! It's. Your day,,I I would suggest first put mums gown on,make sure to find out what you don't like about ! Take her to the bridal shops and make sure you express yourself what you don't like of a wedding gown! Then book a designer for consultation and tell the designer that your mum insist to wear her gown and you don't feel good with this idea ! Consult with the designer to get you out of trouble ))) normally mums would agree with the designer and they realise you look better to wear a fashionable bridal gown !

There is a obtion of using a part of mumme gown in your gown too! Intruducing like the lace or beaded or making a gather or straps of her gown to combine with yours!!)).

I hope I could help you out!

It is a difficulty situation, but possibly take your Mum out for a coffee and in a relaxed and unconfrontational way just tell her what your dream dress looks like. Maybe compromise by suggesting that you wear her veil and how much that would mean to you or a pair of her earrings or something of sentimental value to you both. Good luck!

This is quite often an issue, sometimes what your Mother really wants is to see you in her gown as she imagined you would look. When that curiosity as been satisfied usually she will realise that it is not really the gown for you , but it is best to let her see that for herself.

Hi there, this is a question we often get asked by brides! Our suggestion is you just be honest with mum and maybe buy or get one designed that is similar in the style or get mum to help design it so she feels part of your big day!
