She Refused To Let Her Niece Wear Pajamas To Her Wedding, Even Though The Little Girl Threw A Fit And Didn’t Want To Put On The Flower Girl Dress
This woman just got married last weekend. And everything was going wonderfully the morning of her wedding until her sister, who was a bridesmaid, showed up with her 3-year-old niece.
Her niece was supposed to be the flower girl at her wedding, but the little girl was just wearing pajamas. Still, she didn’t read too much into it at first since it was the morning, and she just assumed both her sister and niece would change before the ceremony.
Well, her sister did wind up changing. However, when it came time to put the flower girl’s dress on her niece, the little girl just threw a massive tantrum.
“This was a dress my niece had worn before. The tags were cut off,” she clarified.
“It wasn’t a fancy dress by any means.”
Regardless, her niece refused to put on the outfit. And eventually, her sister stated that the dress simply was not worth the struggle before claiming that her niece did not need to wear it.
At that point, she turned to her sister and asked what the backup plan was. But to her surprise, there really wasn’t one. Instead, her sister actually said that her niece would just wear the pajamas.
For context, the pajamas were a pink, two-piece set with cartoon eggs, toast, milk, and juice boxes on them. According to her, her niece’s pajamas were not even clean, either. Rather, they actually had the little girl’s breakfast smeared all over them!
“My niece was the flower girl. And I said from the start I don’t care what my she wears, so long as it matched the color scheme– which this didn’t,” she explained.

“My niece could either wear a dress or a polo and khakis. Anything semi-formal. I get dressing kids in fancy clothes is a chore, so I tried to make it easy.”
But her sister wanting to send her niece down the aisle in soiled pajamas took the lax dress code one step too far, in her opinion. So, since they were close to a few stores, she wound up asking her sister to just go and buy a different outfit.
Still, her sister claimed it was not a big deal. And at that point, she was forced to admit that her niece’s outfit mattered to her.
She and her sister then wound up going back and forth for a while until she made herself crystal clear– stating that her niece was not allowed to go to her wedding, flower girl or not, in some pajamas.
That was when her sister finally got her niece dressed properly for the ceremony. All the while, her niece was screaming, kicking, and continuing to throw a large tantrum. However, her niece thankfully did calm down before walking down the aisle. While her niece might have forgotten about the incident, though, it was clear her sister hadn’t and was visibly upset. So, later on, she was confronted by her sister.
“My sister made it clear she thought I was a bridezilla, and I should’ve just let it go,” she vented.
And now, with her sister still upset, she’s been wondering whether refusing to let her niece wear pajamas to her wedding was really a jerky move or not.
Is she allowed to have dress code expectations for her own wedding– even if it’s just a specific color palette? Was it her fault that her niece threw a tantrum and her sister didn’t have a backup outfit? Would you have done the same thing had you been in her shoes?
