wearing same colors as the bride... thoughts?

lol i think u watch too many dramas :cb:

When my mamu got married i recieved a message from his bride 2be telling me and my sister and my mum and khalas not to wear hot pink because her 3 bridesmaids were wearing hot pink, she didnt want us to wear white/ivory or red either and i knew she was wearing red. i didn’t really mind that she told us not to wear those colours because we already had outfits in different colours but on the wedding day i found it quite funny that half the female guests had turned up in hot pink since that colour was very much in fashion.

in my opinion i feel its petty behaviour from the bride if she demands certain ppl dont wear certain colours on her wedding day. fair enough its her wedding day but that doesnt mean she’s free to dictate what guests can and cant wear. the bride is the bride no matter what and nobody can exactly outshine someone with a huge heavy wedding dress, loads of jewellery/makeup and duppata pinned on her head.

**The color combo doesn't really matter but to have the same dress as the bride's is really weird !
I've seen that and it looked OTT. The sister had the SAME dress but her jewellery was different.

I think color coordination in wedding style photography looks divine! :) I know being a female photographer, aesthetics are very crucial! :)

Wearing your own bridal outfit to someone else's wedding is definitely not ok! Especially if the style's are similar. You don't want to out-do the bride because she is THE BRIDE. Other than that, if the color is the same, it shouldn't be too much of an issue. If you are strictly against it, just say no!

i got an invite to a mehndi and shadi, and a note was attached for us NOT TO WEAR so and so colour on the mehndi and so and so colour on the shadi because the bride is wearing it.

On my wedding, my bhabhi and my nand wore the same colours as me..i didnt mind. I thought it was cute.

No one will top the bride - it's her day.

Agreed!!
Close family should not, because they turn out in most of the pics and it doesnt turn out as nice!

I wore my wedding dress to antoher family wedding and to this day I regret doing that because I felt so uncomfortable. I can't even imagine how I looked in the video. I didn't wear the duputta on my head

It wasn't intentionally done to "look better than her" but the people around me encouraged me to re-wear my wedding dress again and I didn't think anything of it. I really wish I had had the sense to save myself from the embarrassment that I still feel.
