We walk in and I see this really tall pretty girl with a strapless ivory tea length dress and immediately think to myself 'Wow thats a pretty BM dress'... only later to find out the BMs are in a sage green dresses and this girl is the brides cousins GF!!! Umm hi are you kidding me????? I told FH that if someone shows up at my wedding in a dress like that they will be escorted outside

Please dont take this as me being diffifcult or trying to prove you wrong....I would hate for something like that to ruin a brides day...since there is much worse that can happen

But do you think a person is thinking..'I want to insult the bride, so I am going to wear an ivory dress'?

ETA: would I ever wear an ivory or white dress to a wedding....NO
But I also wouldnt get upset if I saw a guest wearing a dress that color. Not worth it..IMO

i agree and honestly, there couldve been someone in white at my wedding and i wouldnt have even realized it- i cant tell you what 1 person was wearing. now, if they were naked, that may have stood out a little to me, but short of that, i really didnt care

You could always 'accidentally' spill a bottle of red wine on her... that solves the problem of an ivory dress It's not ivory anymore.

Now I love my wine and don't like to waste it but desperate times call for desperate measures.
