The woman in the photo below IS NOT THE BRIDE. She just wore this FLOOR LENGTH WHITE GOWN TO A FRIEND'S WEDDING. Does anyone else find this in ridiculously poor taste ?
As OGJaci said...I know many people say they wouldn't care, but it would bother me. I assume the girl in the floor length white gown is the bride. If someone wore that to my wedding, I'd side-eye it (and plaster it on WW later for private shaming!).
I agree! If it weren't a FLOOR LENGTH formal dress, it wouldn't be as offensive, but this is a straight up BITCH ASS MOVE.
(also- if you knew the person, you'd probably assume, as I do, that it was intentional)

Would definitely bother me. I do get the one day, let me have it!!! My FMIL is wanting to wear an all white lace top and a black skirt for the wedding. I am not happy.

Wear white? Ok. Wear *that* dress in white? Oh hell no!!
Sounds like you have other issues with this girl rather than her choice of dress.
I really, really wouldn't have given a fuck. My cousin just got married and her bridesmaids were all in white, obviously at her request. No one was confused. Assuming I love the person, they could've shown up in a chicken costume and I'd be happy they were there.
I would be pissed because I think people do that intentionally to piss off the bride or show they don't care about rules. No one wears a white dress to a wedding "unknowingly". Floor length for that matter. No.

From my understanding, it's a sign of respect. Now some people are just dumb-dumbs and may throw on a white top, or white pants or something... but a super nice long, white dress? That's disrespectful in my circle. It'd literally be like wearing a sign saying "hey bride, I hate you but let me eat your cake".
