This niece fell victim to one of the classic blunders… The most famous is: Never get involved in a land war in Asia. But only slightly less well-known is this: Never wear white to a wedding! (…or go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line.)
It's always surprising to see stories about people wearing white to a wedding; you would think that people would know (and obey) such a universal rule. Your job at a wedding is to blend into the crowd. There's nothing else that you need to do other than eat the food and drink the drinks that the bride and groom have paid for. At no point should you attempt to make yourself the center of attention; the day isn't about you—the one exception here is if you're the best man and giving an embarrassing speech.
Still, people continue to wear white to weddings, flagrantly wearing white and lacy dresses that could easily be mistaken for a wedding dress—or otherwise will keep the bride's dress from standing out in pictures.
This bride chose not to confront the issue on the day, instead ensuring her niece's "wedding" dress didn't stand out in photos by photoshopping her and earning her the rage of her sister-in-law, the niece's mother. She then turned to Reddit's r/AmItheA**hole community to see if she was in the wrong for doing so.
Read on for excerpts of the thread that the bride's post spawned. Next, check out this bride who demanded her sister remove the Disney memorabilia from the sister's own home for her wedding.
