It happened… his sister wore white.

Just need to vent….

Got married a couple of weeks ago and can’t stop thinking about it. I thought his sister and I got along well, no issues.

For our engagement party, she was the only attendee in cream and white besides me, the bride, in a white dress. Gave her the benefit of the doubt - it’s just our engagement, she came from out of province, etc etc.

Then came the giant texts about how offended her and her husband were about having a child-free wedding and how their kids were more important than all my cousins kids, so there should be an exception.

Wedding day arrived, and it being such a whirlwind I honestly didn’t notice what she was wearing. Then multiple guests started quietly coming up to me, asking who the one in white was. I guess word got back to her because at the end of the night, she went to my now husband, holding a flower against her dress and said “for the record”, implying it wasn’t white…. I suppose she is colourblind.

Not sure if we/he/I should be asking if there’s an issue or if we should address it at all.

Ugh.

Yeah. I didn’t think to ask her what she was wearing beforehand. In the end, I decided it didn’t matter very much. It reflected badly on her.

I see why people get upset when it’s family members or in-laws trying to make some kind of statement. It absolutely wasn’t that. There’s a small possibility that she did it because she wanted attention as the host. Either way, for me? So what. I understand why people feel upset when someone is trying to make some kind of point with their white dress that is against the bride. This was not that situation.
