I think the dress is lovely and I also totally understand why she picked it -- she's also an athlete (Jamaican sprinter) and she wanted to have a moment where, yes, she felt like a very feminine princess.

But that's also likely why he responded the way he did. My sense is that she has never presented herself this way at all. She wears revealing track clothes while competing and when she's done formal and red carpet appearances, her style is pretty sexy and revealing. He probably had a moment of "wtf". Now, he needed to process that and show up for his wife, and he didn't, and that sucks. But I also get why he was surprised given what I know about her personal style.

[b]Weddings can be really weird for people. It is often a really contrived situation that has little resemblance to your real life, and it can feel surreal and out of body as a result. [/b]I think that's where his reaction is coming from.[/quote]

This is a really good assessment of the situation. It’s weird at weddings how everyone is staring at you trying to figure if it’s a good match, do you really love each other, will you stand the test of time, is your dress prettier than your sister’s, is the bride skinny enough, are they hiding a baby in the way, etc. Some people don’t have a good poker face. Some people don’t do surprises welll. That doesn’t make them a bad life partner - just a lame bride/groom. [/quote]
