I don't want to be mean or cause any offense, but if I was having this kind of trouble with someone--MtOH or otherwise--they would get the ultimatum of show up or be stuck with what is chosen for you. If she keeps this up, I would politely toss her from the wedding party.
I'm sorry if I sound mean, but I would not put up with her crap. It's *your* wedding. She can suck it up and wear the color that makes you happy and fits your vision.
HA! i completely agree! im too lazy at the moment to scroll back thru your PJ, but isn't she the one that there were some maybe legitimate issues regarding her size and her age as compared to your other BMs? speaking as a soon to be 44 year old bride, i can sympathize a bit, but, honestly, if there were any any any way to give her an out without you having to have a "red queen"/bridezilla moment, i'd kick her to the curb!!!!!
haha!!! thats what they get when they go maid-zilla on ME!!!!

But I agree with previous posters that you shouldn't give up your wedding dreams because she is being difficult. You have been more than accommodating, you have tried to think of alternatives to suit her, and you have been really understanding - despite the fact that she keeps giving you a hard time about everything. I would sit down with her and just say that you understand that she might be a little self conscious right now, but you are not willing to compromise your vision. So if she really cannot wear the dress, tell her that you will not be offended if she steps down. This way it will be more her decision than you 'kicking her out'. I hope that it all gets worked out for you!


I am glad that you got your tuxes and dresses picked out in the colour that you truly wanted! Hopefully you can post some invite pictures at a later time, I would love to see them
