DEAR ABBY: My daughter was a bridesmaid recently. The bride chose a designer dress that my daughter had to put a nonrefundable deposit on. A month later, the bride changed her mind about the color and canceled the order, so all six bridesmaids had to purchase another dress.
Am I wrong in thinking the bride should reimburse her bridesmaids for the first dress that she insisted they buy ASAP -- the one she canceled without talking to any of them? -- BRIDESMAID'S MOM IN ELKHORN, WIS.
DEAR BRIDESMAID'S MOM: Not in my book you aren't. And shame on the bride for not volunteering to do so.
