The Wedding - Part V

The invitations have been sent, the menu has been chosen (my choice was duck, but my SIL says many of her friends will not eat any bird meat because of the impending bird flu pandemia, even though they’re doctors and know they can’t get it from cooked meat, so we’re going with pork), the flowers are also decided. It’s getting close.

Last week my Mom took my SIL to the hairdresser to try the hairdo because with my recent work load she couldn’t keep waiting for me to go with her. They took pictures and she looked lovely, but then complained about how much the hairdo and make-up cost. Whatever.
Next Wednesday we have the first fitting on the wedding dress. They are a bit late but I think there’s enough time and no need to stress about it (the wedding is on June 17th, in case you don’t remember).

The problem now is what my other SILs will wear. And it’s about to become a soap opera.
My SIL who’s a nun (sorta) will wear a dress she borrowed from me. The dress is lovely (if I may say so myself) but it has no back so she’ll wear a blazer over it (also mine) the whole time. I tried to tell her it’s June and she’ll be too hot but she would rather die than show her back.
My SIL who’s a dentist (not that it has anything to do with what she’s wearing, just saying that to identify her) bought an ok-ish dress (which everyone tells her is lovely) but it has a pornographic cleavage. The only person who’s actually seen it on her was me and she says she won’t let the rest of the family see it on otherwise her father will forbid her to wear it (which is ridiculous, since she’s 28, but I can totally see him doing that). I think she’s making a huge mistake.
My youngest SIL (who’s a doctor, btw, just so you know what everyone does) had bought a dress (quite lovely) but then my older SIL ( a lawyer) tried it on and declared she was going to wear it so now we’re one dress short.
As for me, I bought one a while ago and will try it on again soon to see if it fits. My SIL, the dentist, hates it but I seriously doubt her taste so I don’t really care. I’ll take pictures of it and let you decide for yourself.

That’s it for now. To be continued…
