Hi All
Maybe someone out there can give a bit of advice! A good friend of mine is getting married in 6 weeks. Generally all the plans have being going very well and she is more or less really looking forward to the big day. The only problem is fake tan! Sounds strange I know, but the story goes like this:
My friend rarely wears fake tan, she's not very keen on it and wasn't going to wear any on her wedding day. Then she found out that her three bridesmaids (her sisters) are planning to be all tanned up and now she feels that she has to do likewise as she does't want to look like a ghost beside her sisters. Unfortunately, at the last two weddings she was at where the bride wore fake tan it ended up getting onto the dresses and looked very unsightly - near the arms and chest area of the dresses. She doesn't want to look like a melting tangerine on the day so we have been trying lots of different tans and wearing white. But to no avail...they all seem to stain at one point or another! She is getting really anxious and panicky at this stage. I told her that she could always decide to not wear any tan and ask her sisters to do likewise, but she reckons that the sisters would be up in arms if she so much as suggested this. Her soon-to-be husband isn't helping matters. So far this week he has: 1. brought home a tin of wood varnish and told her to get busy with a painbrush! and 2. suggested that she start taking baths in water filled with teabags!
I know it seems quite a minor thing, but it is really getting my friend down. Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks
Noor
