I'm getting to crunch time, I need to order my dress in the next 10 days or I won't have time to alter it to fit properly. Mom keeps reminding me of this. I found A dress that I love and it looks great on me. It's very vintage and the store only has it in in a pink/dusty rose color but it also comes in white. I took mom to see it today and while she agrees that it looks lovely on me, she believes that it isn't very brideish (although she thinks it's timeless and old) and not what I would pick for a "once in a lifetime dress" Is it OK to tell her to buzz off since it's my wedding dress and I love the dress or should I continue to look for ten more days to humor her? She is paying.

I don't think it would be nice to say, "buzz off" to your mom, especially if she's been generous enough to foot the bill.
Speak to her openly and honestly about your feelings. If you can spare a few more days of shopping, it might make you and your mom both feel like you've looked enough and you won't have second thoughts. Make it a pleasant experience since these are the times of which memories are made. May sound corny to you now but later you'll understand.
