Few rules in life are as stead-fast as "Never wear white to a wedding." You shouldn't wear any colors that might be mistaken for white either; creme, off-white, or eggshell, especially on a dress, will get you on the wrong side of the couple's family for eternity. Even if you manage to smooth things over with the couple themselves and maintain contact, you'll still be forever known as "that one friend who wore white."

Now, if you shouldn't wear white to a wedding, you certainly shouldn't wear a wedding dress to the wedding… unless you're a member of the couple being wed. Of course, if you do this, you might expect a furious mob to chase you off the premises like you're Frankenstein's monster.

This guest managed to miss this memo somehow, but… are they really in the wrong? This one comes with an exciting twist that I dare not spoil.

Redditor and wedding guest, u/DanWantsDeath, shared their story to Reddit's r/AmItheAsshole subreddit. Sharing how they managed to get themselves on the wrong side of the bride and groom when they showed up to the couple's wedding in a wedding dress. They appealed to Reddit's popular community to see if they were in the wrong for their actions and the resulting fallout.

Since their original post and judgment, they returned to post an update on the situation to their account.

What's your take? Are they in the wrong here?
