"When we were talking about the times it&amp;amp;#8217;s okay for wedding guests to wear white, some of you mentioned brides who asked all of their guests to wear white. Hmm ...&amp;amp;#8220;I said I want EVERYONE in white, damn it!&amp;amp;#8221; Maybe I&amp;amp;#8217;m in an uncooperative mood, but I think I&amp;amp;#8217;d be a little annoyed if the bride told me what to wear as a guest! Sure, her pictures would look cool ... but sometimes it&amp;amp;#8217;s hard enough to pull together an outfit for a dress-up event. Never mind an outfit in a pre-determined color palette that was dictated by a bride! I mean, outside of my wedding dress, I don&amp;amp;#8217;t own any white dresses. So I&amp;amp;#8217;m supposed to buy a dressy white dress (that of course I can&amp;amp;#8217;t wear to someone else&amp;amp;#8217;s wedding!) just for your big day? That doesn&amp;amp;#8217;t seem fair. And if my mother-in-law&amp;amp;#8212;whose wardrobe is strictly black-black-black&amp;amp;#8212;got an invite that told her she had to wear white, she&amp;amp;#8217;d probably laugh. And then wear black. What do you guys think? Am I being too stubborn? If a bride wants her guests to wear a specific color, should they suck it up and dress according to her command? Or is it rude for a bride to tell her guests what to wear? Brides, would you tell your guests what to wear?
