However, there is one rule that almost every bride chooses to agree on.
Nobody else should be allowed to wear white.
Taking to Reddit, one user fumed about a mother that had chosen to ignore this unspoken rule.
The Reddit user attached an image of a stunning bride, wearing a lacy white gown and a long veil.

Her hair was pinned back in a slicked-back bun, and fixed in place with an elegant sparkly clasp.
Standing next to the bride, was a woman in a very similar dress with the same off the shoulder neckline, and even a similar hairstyle.
"The woman of the left is the bride's mother", the Reddit poster raged.
"This is clearly a wedding dress."

Wedding Guest Outfit Etiquette
If you're struggling to decided on a dress to see you through wedding season, here's a few rules on what not to wear so you don't get in trouble.
- Folklore says that wearing red at a wedding means you slept with the groom.
- Casual attire like jeans and flip flops should always be avoided.
- Any colour that could be picked up as white or cream - even if it's not.
- Most would agree that your cleavage needs to be covered.
- Wearing white is a massive no-no if you're not the bride.
A fourth person said: "Someone get the wine! Quick!"
However, others pointed out that the bride may have approved of the mother's dress.
One person said: "Chances are the daughter already approved of the dress."
