I went shopping for my wedding dress yesterday and i took my Mum and my Grandmother with me. They didn't seem excited at all about it while we were travelling to the shop, but i figured they would perk up when we got there. However all through the trying on of the dresses they both just sat there, and whenever i came out with a dress on the just said 'nice' or 'ugh i don't like that one'. Now i didn't expect tears or anything but it would have been nice for my MOTHER to have at least said 'you look lovely' or something like that. I know that some of the dresses i tried on looked amazing on me, but they acted like i was trying on jeans!!
This has really upset me, if they are like this with my dress which is supposed to be the most important part, what are they going to be like when it comes to the smaller stuff like flowers or whatever. I know they won't be as excited as me about the wedding but they could at least show some interest. I have 2 daughters and i know that when they get married i'll be so excited to help them, and do the normal mother of the bride stuff. My mum is going to 2 other weddings before mine and she seems more interested about these, even though one of them is just 'a friend of a friend'.
I am really upset about this, it feeels like they couldn't care less about their only daughters wedding.
Am i overreacting or should i tell them how much they have hurt me?
Thanks.
