This bride has made repeated concessions to her soon-to-be in-laws, giving in to their demands of having a traditional wedding according to their religious standards. The problem is that the bride is Japanese and would like to honor her culture by, at the very least, wearing her culture's traditional attire, the Shiromuku, and Iro-uchikake. She has already given in to having a traditional western-style ceremony and would like to preserve this one thing.
Her in-laws, including her fiancé, insist that she make further "compromises" and wear a traditional western-style wedding dress. They refuse to acknowledge that their idea of a "compromise" involves having everything how they want it to be… When it's her wedding in the first place.
The bride posted this topic to Reddit's AITA subreddit (Am I the A--Hole); she posted the topic with the title "AITA for not wanting to wear a Western Wedding Dress at my wedding?" Wanting to appeal to readers and see if she was in the wrong for refusing to wear the dress that her in-laws wanted her to.
Comments are overwhelmingly taking her side and encouraging her to reconsider joining this family that is trying to white-wash her culture.
