[quote=Anonymous]OP the only reason I responded to this thread is last week, I was walking on a bluff overlooking the ocean, and there was a gathering of people dressed in white.  It was a (Jewish) wedding and they broke the glass just as we were walking by.

I had never seen anything like it, all in white, even the photographer.  It was actually visually striking.

And yes, a huge imposition.  Unlike the bride, I'm sure the guests haven't been working out and eating right for months, and getting their makeup done so they can look fabulous in their dress which took months to pick out.

However; it does lend a sort of cameraderie; it's a uniform, if you think about it, and tends to do what uniforms do in terms of the mental inclusiveness state of mind.

I am glad you are putting on a game face and going.  I think that this situation calls for either doing it or not showing up.  If someone showed up in, say, red, it not only wrecks the visual, but makes the person in red pop out, not the bride.  Yikes.  This makes me think that that kind of request really leaves the bride vulnerable on her day to be the center of attention.

Again, I am sympathetic and do not think this is a great idea but glad you are trying to comply.[/quote]
