I can’t believe I’m posting about this but I really need some insight.

I (23f) am getting married to my fiancé (25m) in November. We’re really excited and the day is fast approaching.

I have 5 women being my bridesmaids, one of them is my sister, Millie (21f). Millie has always been more of a tomboy growing up but doesn’t have an issue with wearing dresses for formal events.

I want my bridesmaids to wear matching dresses, which everyone knew when they accepted. I bought and paid for the dresses. They’re a relatively simple style and in a pastel pink color.

Millie is now angry and saying she won’t wear the dress because it’s pink and “too girly”. She’s even threatening to not attend the wedding anymore unless I return her dress and pick out another color.

I’m distraut that she’d make such a problem out of a dress color when she knew I wanted the bridesmaids to match. I think Millie is being dramatic and could deal with wearing the dress for one day but tbh my feelings are really hurt that she’d threaten to drop out of the wedding over this.

My fiancé thinks I should kick her out of the wedding party before she causes bigger problems closer to or on the day. My parents got themselves involved in this and told me to just exchange the dress for the same one in a different color and that we’re both acting like children.

WIBTA if I told Millie to suck it up and wear the dress if she wants to be a bridesmaid, and not budge on the issue?
