So this past weekend I went to a wedding in Chicago. My sister and I counted 5- yes FIVE- guests wearing white dresses!!!!! 3 of them were like just white!!!! One was white with black trim and the other was all ivory. I couldn't believe it! I was so mad! Who does that!? And I didn't even catch it at first- FH did. Isn't it universally known that you do not wear white to a wedding if you are not the brde?

Unfortunately, FHs aunt has already informed me that she is wearing a white strapless gown to our wedding and that she looks hot in it![]()
I'm trying ot get FMIL to clue her in
Perhaps the best man will 'accidently' dump a glass, or three, of red wine on her dress?![]()

this brings me to another question, is it inappropriate to wear the same color dress as the BMs?
Thats not so bad cus 90% of the time people go to a wedding not knowing what color the BMs are wearing.
thats not as bad as the MOB wearing white which is what happened at my cousins wedding lol all the pictures with the bride next to her mom you cant tell which is the bride lol

I guess I broke the cardinal rule... I wore and ivory dress (short) with gold trim to a friends wedding (the one in my avatar)... it didn't look anything like a wedding dress, so I didn't think twice about it...
Shame on me, i guess?

I was a wedding and 3 guests (including an aunt) wore white/ivory it completely caught me off guard. I have a beautiful dress that is almost like a champange color, but it is really light, and I would not wear it to a wedding... i just feel bad... now a days people dont always wear a 'white out white' dress, and if my dress is lighter than the brides I would feel like a tool!
if that happens to me they are getting kicked out lmao

I know I am in the minority here but I don't think wearing white to a wedding is a BIG DEAL unless it is a big ball gown. In the end, you know who the bride is. IMO!
