I thought this was a wedding dress

Let me guess, the argument is that since it’s blush/cream/ivory/some version of off white that’s still a fairly popular wedding dress color it’s “not a wedding dress”. Who the hell is wearing this that your mother is defending because that’s a red flag on its own.

Do what I’m having. My BFF is having a squirt gun filled with red dye for this exact reason

my cousin, the problem is she’s super weird and the dress she suggested before this was a dark colored gothic gown that looked like a costume or cosplay. like it’s formal, not a convention but all her dresses are fucking weird and my mom is like “well this is better than that one” ok mom well maybe she needs to just buy a new dress? idgaf go thrift one

and now my mom is like “well I don’t want you to judge her, you know she’s very insecure” which fair bc she has a very visible birth defect and her face looks kind of melted but that doesn’t mean you have to dress crazy or wear white to my wedding. you can look beautiful in so many other dresses!! the problem is my mom told her she looks pretty in this dress AND SUGGESTED SHE WEAR IT TO MY WEDDING (again, in contrast to the super weird gothic one to be fair)

It sounds like she’s not trying to do it on purpose (honestly it sounds like she might of developed a bolder “weird” style to feel as though her birth defect was not the first thing people saw) and a simple conversation about wedding etiquette and dress code may be helpful in this situation. Your mom might have her heart in the right place but she needs to stop making excuses for family members and blaming you for having a reasonable reaction to a guest picking a white dress.

Wait I just read the last comment again and YOUR MOM PICKED THE WHITE DRESS??? Nah your mom is trying to sabotage your cousin and get her shamed at your wedding! Talk to the cousin directly saying that the dress color is not appropriate, your mom was mistaken, and maybe suggest dyeing it a darker color. Mom definitely needs some consequence for that, maybe explain what she did to your cousin’s mom?
