Stock photos often depict bridesmaids looking elegant in their gowns. But in this case, the color choice has become a source of contention. The bride, based in Belgium, had chosen to organize the wedding herself, wanting to surprise everyone with the details. However, this decision has led to misunderstandings and conflicts.
The groom's mother initially offered to help with wedding arrangements as she is from New Zealand where the wedding will take place. But the bride's independent approach has created a situation where details were not shared in a timely manner.
The groom seemed to understand and said it was fine, but the bride was not satisfied. She called the groom's cousin in a fit of rage, believing that the groom's sister and mother were deliberately trying to sabotage her wedding. The poster continued to explain that they only took the decision to ask them to be bridesmaids last week and one of them had already bought a dress. As a result, it was easier for the other two to wear the same color and ask the mother to change hers instead of asking the friend to wear a different color.
This situation has sparked a heated debate among Reddit users. Most commented that the bride was being overly dramatic and that the groom's sister and mother should be allowed to wear the dresses they had already purchased. One person said, "So exhausting. She's trying to make OP and mom jump through hoops to fix her own lack of organization. And blaming it all on them." Another added, "She needs to grow up. What does the bridesmaids' color matter?"
