Yeah I was mad when my cousins got to dress up in pretty dresses when I was little. And I didn't. I converted this last year, but no white dress for me.
I'll have to ask if my bf's parents had a dollar dance. It's apparently really popular in Polish families (according to TheKnot.com)... and my bf's dad is 100% Polish.
