So check out this story... A BRIDE asked a woman to cover up her tattoos because they "clashed" with the "theme of the wedding."
Oh, the BRIDE also asked this woman to change her hair to a "natural" color... or else she'd risk not being allowed into a wedding.
Wow.
I mean, I guess I get that it's YOUR SPECIAL DAY... and you have a right to the things you want, I guess, but this sort of thing is kinda discriminatory, no?
More and more, tattoos and whatnot are a part of our culture. People have a right to self-expression. A right to do what they wish with their bodies. If you want them at a wedding, don't you want 'em at a wedding because of who they are? Tattoos and all?
This story to me makes little to no sense. Because people are people... with or without tattoos. With or without scars. Probably not cool but that's just my opinion...
Here's the story:
We’ve heard countless stories of brides having crazy demands for their bridesmaids in order to make their wedding look absolutely perfect, but one bride went a step too far, and tried to actually manage the look of their guests as well.
A woman recently shared on the Facebook group “‘that’s it, I’m wedding shaming (non ban-happy edition)” that a bride actually contacted her to ask that she cover up her tattoos for her wedding because her look "clashes" with the theme of their wedding. The woman, who has tats down both of her arms, shared the outrageous exchange from the bride who suggests she wear long sleeves to the hot summer wedding to cover up the tats, and also asks that she “fix your hair up so it’s a natural color.”
Not only is the request outrageous, as the text exchange went on the bride got nastier and nastier, suggesting that if the guest doesn’t comply it shows she doesn’t really care about the bride at all, adding, “if you turn up on the day without anything covered you won’t be let in to the venue.”
- As you can imagine, many folks were shocked by the bride’s request. “Whatever happened to weddings being a celebration with those you love,” one person noted. “What’s the influx of brides who think it’s a fashion show.” And one person even suggested a great way to get back at the bride, noting, “wear a jacket to be accepted and then take it off for every picture,” adding, “wear a wig to get in too and take it off at the venue.”
