A bride's attempt to quietly fix a family photo mishap involving her niece's all-white wedding guest dress sparked a new controversy. Etiquette expert Jo Hayes analyzes the situation, emphasizing the importance of wedding attire etiquette and offering advice on how to handle such dilemmas gracefully.
Instead of making a scene, the bride decided to quietly photoshop the dress to a different color in the family photos. What seemed like a simple solution, however, sparked a whole new family drama .
“This is something of a challenging situation to call, etiquette-wise, but I will make a call, erring towards the side of the bride,” she said. However, in this case, the niece’s choice of an all-white dress was clearly a misstep. “Surely she knew about the ‘don’t wear white to a wedding’ rule,” Hayes remarked. “In cultures where it’s a ‘rule,’ it’s widely known—even among teenagers.”
Hayes suggested the bride could have approached the situation differently by having a conversation with her niece about what happened. “She could sit down with her niece—and possibly the niece’s mother—and explain kindly, calmly, but clearly, why the choice of a white dress was upsetting,” she said.rule that guests shouldn’t wear white, and that she didn’t want the photos to reflect this,” Hayes added.
