Guest wears white wedding dress

I would escort them out.

Thank goodness I'm not the only one here to say that lol

I don't think I would do anything, but I would always see them as the person who wore white to my wedding. I would definitely care, not because I think it would take attention away from me or my dress, but because there is no way in this day and age that there is a person left on this Earth who doesn't know you don't wear white to another persons wedding. It's an attention grabbing move and completely rude.

Yeah...not okay.

View Quoted Comment That’s absurd.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe in the early days of bridesmaids, the idea was that they dressed similar to confuse "evil spirits" who might be after the bride, or "bad luck" or something like that. Just food for thought.

When my FMIL asked me what colors I'd like her in, I told her the colors that we chose and what I was thinking for the BM but told her it was completely up to her. She made a joke, something along the lines of, "as long as I don't show up in white, right?" and I said that I honestly wouldn't care if she did. Maybe that speaks more to the relationship that I have with her, where I know that she welcomes me into the family, and has been nothing but kind. But everyone there knows who the bride and groom are, and no one is going to upstage my dress.

The people I've invited would not consciously try to "insult" me or my FH and even if they did, I'd be too busy having a good time to care. Why would I want to ruin a beautiful day, by being petty?

Wow! This thread is just as lively as cash bar/dry wedding or "Let's elope and lie to people and have another ceremony!" - this is juicy. Never would I have thought there would be so many differing opinions. WW, you never fail me.

Having said that I would not escort someone out.

I’d be upset. After months pouring over details about what might go wrong and some person wearing a white dress ends up being the issue? This would definitely be annoying. However I wouldn’t say anything.

It makes that person look weird, but everyone knows who the bride is.If that happened to me, I probably would be highly irritated, but i wouldnt say anything

I would be a little upset but honestly they would look foolish.

I'm wearing pink, and my girls are weary gray white is totally up.for grabs. My aunt actually asked if she could rewear the dress she got for my cousin's wedding it's angel dust kind of off white. I told her it was fine. I've also seen on one of these forums that a bride requested her guests wear white because it would match her theme... I don't think it's a big deal anymore.

I probably wouldn’t notice unless someone else brought it to my attention but even still i wouldn’t care.

I’d probably complain to my bridesmaids and they would probably give her the stank eye...hopefully when no photographers were around. But I’d ask that they say nothing and it just be a joke between us.

I would thank them for coming to my wedding

View Quoted Comment Every word of this.

I probably wouldn’t even notice as another guest or a bride. I’m too self centered 😉

I actually told my guest they can wear white being that my dress is Black. But even if my dress was white I wouldn’t care it’s not worth getting upset over

Omggg it totally looks like a wedding dress!

I hate that. But it happens. The bride is the star no matter what others wear. It doesn't make sense to address it and put attention on this person. Don't worry, I am sure people are gossiping about how inappropriate she is!

Some people do things on purpose to cause drama. My sister wore a black lacy dress with a huge slit up the leg (think Angelina Jolie Oscars dress a few years back) to my brother's wedding. I was with her as she was getting dressed and I told her several times not to wear black. She insisted and eventually I gave up. The bride was NOT pleased and said something to my sister a few weeks later. My sister was completely unfazed... because she had done it on purpose, to be rude.

My point is, some people are just jerks and nothing you say to them will change their behavior.
