A bride to be struggling with her mother after she revealed that she planned to carry white to her wedding.
On Reddits R/AMIOVERREACTING FORUMThe 27-year-old woman explains that she is ready for her “little garden wedding” in November, which has a “semi-formal” dress code.
While she was on her last dress fittings, her mother “temporarily” mentioned that she had already selected her outfit for the big day.
“I asked what color it was and she said,” It’s white, but it’s more of a winter white. Don’t worry, I won’t increase you, “the user writes.
The woman immediately pointed out to carry white to someone else’s wedding is a faux pas and not something she should do.

“I blinked at her and asked, ‘Wait, you carry white for my wedding?'” Reddit user continues. “She said yes, and that she” looks best in white “and it’s” not like anyone would confuse her for the bride. “
The poster appealed to her mother to choose some other color, even though she met with resistance. Her mother claimed that she “controlled and” did everything about me. “
“I said that her wedding is usually about the couple and it is generally considered rude to carry white unless it is approved,” she continues. “She cheated and said I clearly have some uncertainty problems if a dress threatens me.” ”
The Reddit user then told her mother that if she was a hill that she is willing to die on, she might as well skip the wedding completely.

“I told her she was welcome not to come about the color of her outfit meant more than my comfort on the greatest day of my life,” she writes. “Now my dad calls me dramatic and my mom threatens not to come. My aunt (her sister) agrees with me, but says I just should release it” for peace. “
Although the bride wonders if she overreacts, others suggested in the comments that she would stand on the ground and pointed out that this is not a typical answer from a mother.
“Wearing white when you have made it very clear that she does not want her to do it is just rude. This is an underlying need to compete with you or to get rid of you in some way at your wedding,” wrote a commentator.
“Your mom is welcome to skip the event if she doesn’t find any other color that suits her, and Dad can stay home with her,” added another. “And I hate people who say you should go against your wishes to keep peace, which why can’t the abusive person do what is asked for peace?”
