A bride-to-be is clashing with her future mother-in-law over a strict all-black dress code for her upcoming wedding. The bride is insistent on the dress code for her small, speakeasy-themed ceremony, while the mother-in-law is refusing to comply, sending colourful dress suggestions instead.
We all have different ideas of what makes a wedding special, whether you love huge ceremonies or low-key ones. Your wedding day is also the one day when you get to be a bit selfish and expect your guests to agree to your rules.
In a post on Reddit, the bride-to-be vented: "I'm getting married later this year, and our guest count is less than 30. I am asking everyone to wear all black. It's easy, and all outfits will match for photos. My mother-in-law has been sending my fiancé dress options for herself, all coloured. She said she doesn't want to wear black to her son's wedding.
Seeking advice, the distressed bride told online commenters she wasn't sure how to tackle the situation if her mother-in-law defies the black attire rule, particularly as she isn't contributing financially to the wedding.
