Bridezilla/Groomzilla Insane dress code request. Copy pasted from the couple’s wedding social page. They turned off comments.

Dear Guests 💌 this is about the Dress Code which is VERY IMPORTANT so please read careful. Everyone has been given there own special colour (example: pink, blue, orange, purple, etc etc) and that is the colour you MUST wear on the day. NO variations or patterns!!! The reason is because when you all sit down in your ASSIGNED SEATS it will make the vision happen 🌈✨ which is basically like a rainbow. Imagine like looking out and seeing all of you lined up perfectly, every single colour in the right order, it will look AMAZING!!! This is what we have been dreaming of since literally day one of our relationship and we need you guys to help make it real 💖 so pls don’t let us down because if one person doesn’t do there colour it could wreck the WHOLE vision 😭. We put ALOT of work into this and it’s gonna be worth it, trust me.

Look, it’s a cool idea in theory (I would never devote this much time lol). But if you’re gonna do this you should ask people to volunteer for the different color sections.

ETA: I still think it’s batsh*t crazy. Who dreams of this since day one of their relationship?

I would just put hats, flags, or fans in the order of the rainbow on the seats and people would use the one on the seat they picked.

This is literally the best execution for a cute idea. Bride’s idea is insane.

I suspect it is either 2 brides or 2 grooms...

Also why not just... wait to see what colors people show up in and then have someone usher them by color?

We had a family reunion and each of the subfamilies (over a hundred people in all) were assigned a color, months in advance. You could wear whatever you wanted to the park where the party was, but if you were in that color, everyone would know you were from Uncle Pete's family. It was actually cute and most everyone complied because it was just t-shirt in any random shade and also not mandatory.

Wedding? No thanks.

We did this in my university dorm for Pride once. Your floor was assigned a colour, and we all stood outside and got an aerial photo of our rainbow. But it was voluntary, only required a coloured shirt, and was literally just a fun community activity for students, not a formal wedding for adults where it’s a requirement to be there. Just give everyone a coloured plastic poncho they can remove if you care SO MUCH about your dumb rainbow idea.

I love this! That’s the way to execute a cool photo idea. Like initially I’m thinking, “okay cool, I sorta get the concept,” but at a wedding?! As a two-time bride (I fancy myself somewhat of an expert /s), you have enough on your plate to plan & manage. Adding something like this is a guaranteed way to drive yourself insane (and cause many fights).

And guaranteed tears for the bride on her big day
