Is the bride the only one that wears white?

Erica, on June 2, 2018 at 8:21 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 6
While talking to FH grandma, I asked so what did you decide to wear. She says a white lace top and pants! I'm speechless, say nothing and then when we are done talking, I say to FH, your grandma is wearing white and he says isn't the only one wearing white is supposed to be you. He then calls her and says the same thing and she says yeah, and!! That's what I have already to wear. He then says please go buy something else then. So I have no idea if that is going to happen or Not! I just dont know how im supposed to feel about the whole thing. Did she not even take my feeling into consideration?? I'm a week out!!!

    I don't think a guest wearing a white top is that big of a deal. It's the wearing an entirely white dress to a wedding is a big faux pas.

    A woman old enough to be a grandma in a white lace top and white pants will never be mistaken for the bride. Let it go.

    In the grand scheme of things it's not that big of a deal. Not gonna lie I got annoyed at my FMIL about her white lace dress she showed me. My response was 'what color are you going to dye it.' Its rude. But sometimes theres just nothing you can do about rude people and you have to let it go. My friends wedding a few months ago her mom wore a white floral dress. It did not take away from the bride.

    I can see your frustration. My FMIL almost bought a VERY similar dress to my wedding dress in color and I had to tell her nicely that it wasn’t happening. I think if she’s only wearing a white top it won’t be as big of deal as if she wore an entirely white outfit, but it’s your call!

    At this point everything is going to be what it is going to be. My feelings have been hurt thru this whole planning process. I now have to just focus on marrying my best friend and let the rest be, I just can't do it to myself anymore. In one week I will be a wife to my love!
