Already Annoyed
A year out I thought I had the perfect dress
to wear to my daughter’s Hudson Valley wedding
although now she claims
my choice might not compare
with the vibe of the groom’s
mother or sister, or equal
the formality of her vision

Yes, nothing like a wedding to create tensions in the family: a gold mine for poems.
The mother of the bride will be a bit bohemian 😉 Sounds like a great wedding to me.
Weddings and funerals—also bring out best and worst in friends and families! My former mother-in-law wore what I thought was a ridiculous dress and scarf to our wedding. She showed it to me first and I did not have the heart to say anything. She wore it and was comfortable in it and that was about 40 years ago! You look marvelous! True poem

Hard to please daughters Gaby!
Title really works. I let my daughter help pick out my dress–we were both happy. But I get it.
The title is great, and I also love the word “vibe” here.
