Many plans go to weddings by the bride and groom. Their Day – exactly how they want it, even tee.
However, according to some guests, these requests went too far, with one couple being asked for the “passive aggressive” line on their wedding invitations.
“This is a wedding reception, not a girl’s night.”
The couple fired after one of the wedding guests went to Facebook and ranted about small details about the invitation.
Note that under the dress code, the lines are called for “passive aggressive” undertones rather than simple things like “black tie options” or color schemes.
“Be dressed casual, appropriate and well-dressed,” the invitation says.
“This is a wedding reception, not a girl’s night.”
Eeks!
Posters are called “gross” as a completely unnecessary meaning.
“It’s strange to want to announce your anxiety to everyone, but you do you,” they wrote.
“I disagree with implying that clothes are what makes women “gorgeous.” If you want something modest, just say that. But this means awful. It’s very easy.
“It feels bad to me to make passive, aggressive comments solely to girls who say this is ‘not a girl’s night.’ It implies that a woman doesn’t know that she is suitable for a wedding.
“I want to show up in my best clubwear.”
The commenter for the post thought the wording was ridiculous and called the couple out for “mean” behavior.
“That’s a nasty connotation and frankly, I want to show up in the best club outfits,” snapped one commenter.
“It’s strange for her to comment on women because we’ve seen men dressed more inappropriately at weddings wearing jeans, tennis shoes, boots and hats than we’ve seen women cross the line,” another noted.
Some people thought they were targeting one person in particular.
“There was only one person doing it, like when my boss sent out a group text about wearing a sports bra as a shirt. He ignored the notes and continued doing it.”
Is that really a problem?
However, some thought it would be perfectly justified to ensure that the bride has the look she wanted on her wedding day. Something’s fine for a good photo, right?
“There’s nothing wrong with hoping people will dress properly,” one person said.
“I have a family I have to say to cover up at Easter, Christmas, Thanksgiving, not because I’m unstable, but because she’s really dressed. [inappropriately] And that’s actually embarrassing,” another added.
