This Bride Wants To Wear A White Suit To Her Wedding Instead Of A Dress And Her Groom Is Not Happy About This At All

A 28-year-old bisexual woman is going to be marrying her 30-year-old straight male fiancé soon, and they’re already encountering a major issue for their special day.

As they were talking about their wedding day plans, her groom asked her if she had begun looking at wedding dresses.

She replied to him that she really just wants to wear a white suit.

“He told tried to tell me because we are a heterosexual couple I can’t do that, I pushed back saying it’s our wedding and we can wear what we please,” she explained.

“Eventually we got to the root of it being that he just felt weird about me wearing a suit. I wanted to keep pushing but I know him well enough to know he won’t budge on this.”

She’s shocked that her fiancé feels so strongly about her wearing a wedding dress because she does not wear clothes on a daily basis that are feminine at all.

On top of that, she doesn’t even like dresses in the least and she can’t picture herself in one walking down the aisle.

Her fiancé has never had a problem with how she dresses and the fact that it’s not girly, so she can’t see why it matters on their wedding day for her to be feminine.

Her dream ever since she was younger has always been to wear a suit, regardless of whether she got married to a man or a woman.

“I have dreamed of this since I was a little girl and it feels kind of demeaning to have something I care about just be brushed aside,” she said.

“Imagine trying to talk about a detail for your wedding you were(/are/will be) excited about and then just being told no like you are a child who has no say in the matter.”

“This is only made worse by the fact that this detail is my own clothing, I’m an adult, not some Barbie to be dressed up.”

She’s upset her future husband is wildly uncomfortable with her choice of clothing for their wedding day, and she isn’t sure how she can change his mind.

“I don’t think it’s fair that he gets to dress me like a doll, especially when this day is about our love for each other not our love for each other’s clothes,” she concluded.
