At a Western wedding, an Indian woman carefully selected a saree, seeking approval from both the groom and bride beforehand. Despite receiving compliments, she faced hostility from bridesmaids at the reception, who seemed resentful of her attire. Even though the bride initially praised the saree, her behavior at the reception suggested otherwise. The woman, raised with a deep respect for guests, was shocked by the treatment she received. However, cultural norms discouraged her from confronting the issue during the event. Despite attempts to spoil her dress, the saree remained undamaged, thanks to a friend’s intervention. Commenters on Reddit expressed sympathy, labeling the bridesmaids as “mean girls” and asserting the woman’s innocence. The woman, torn between her upbringing and the bride’s approval, felt unsettled by the experience. Yet, she refrained from causing a scene, adhering to cultural expectations. Although some were initially concerned about the saree’s color, they acknowledged the bride’s approval as the deciding factor. Ultimately, the woman’s attire sparked attention and debate, highlighting the intersection of cultural diversity and wedding etiquettes.
