Bride’s sister sparks outrage with OTT wedding outfit and others are just as bad
A bride’s sister has been criticised after she showed off her over-the-top outfit while her friends looked little different.
Over the past few months, thousands of weddings have taken place around the world and among those celebrating love was Lety Wehbe.
The young Lebanese beauty recently attended her sister’s wedding and proudly showed off her extravagant outfit for the big day via TikTok.
But soon the breathtaking outfits she and her fellow guests wore took the stage by storm – but for all the wrong reasons.
The now viral videowhich has been viewed no less than 14.2 million times in just one day, says Lety (@letyofficial) film just some of the looks spotted during the glamorous outdoor ceremony.
One of the sisters, Karen, arrived in a beautiful long dress adorned with pink gemstones and a flattering bardot-style corset top that was perfect for a real princess.
Lety herself had meanwhile opted for a breathtaking maxi dress made of tulle in a summery lilac shade.
The beautiful dress, complete with a bedazzled corset top that accentuated her waist, also featured tulle around her bust.
The dark-haired fashionista paired the outfit with a sleek clutch, a chic hairstyle, glamorous makeup and a mini tiara on her head.
Among the guests was a young woman named Lynn, who decided to show off her enviable curves in a tight maxi dress with a thigh-high slit and sky-high platform heels.
The bright white dress also featured ruffles around the neckline, which paired well with the lightweight clutch she kept all of her essentials in.
The men who attended the lavish wedding also had their best suits picked out. They were dressed to the nines and radiated in a beautiful tuxedo.
While the guests were beaming with joy and love, the reaction on TikTok was a bit different, with viewers raving about the OTT looks.
Not only did many think they were outdoing the bride with their flashy looks, but people also made fun of Lynn for her white dress.
One social media user was completely stunned, writing: “LYNN IS NOT WEARING WHITE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.”
Another was equally stunned, adding: “Lynn must be the bride.”
“Lynn, what are you doing, sis?” someone else shouted, while a fourth said they would take drastic measures to ruin Lynn’s dress.
“I’ll bring the red wine.”
How to choose the perfect wedding dress?
Wedding season is in full swing, but when it comes to picking out the perfect dress, most brides-to-be are probably clueless.
Josie Griffiths, deputy editor of Fabulous Digital and bride-to-be, is getting married in August 2024 and has shared her top tips…
- Give yourself time – unless you are a sample size, dresses can take months to arrive. Don’t stress yourself out by looking too late, in my opinion, dress shopping should be second on your list, right after you find a venue.
- Visit multiple stores. You are not supposed to buy anything on your first visit.
- But not too many – just like an asshole who can’t stop swiping on Tinder, too much choice won’t help you find The One.
- Bring people with you – women who are honest but also supportive, unlike the mean family members in Say Yes To The Dress, and ideally people from different parts of your life who don’t automatically say the same thing. I went shopping with my mother and two best friends, who didn’t know each other and had different styles.
- Think again – I went back to the store before I made my final decision on the dress I chose and tried it on again with my second favorite just to make sure I was sure. It’s an expensive purchase and you can’t return it like you can with your next Asos order, so take some time to think about it.
Luckily for the glamorous group, there was also a lot of support, as people realised that weddings look different all over the world.
“It hurts me that people don’t understand that weddings are celebrated differently in different cultures,” one person wrote.
Someone else agreed, adding: “Guys, remember that every country has its own rules for weddings and who knows, maybe the sister will let other people wear white.”
Traditionally, Lebanese weddings are extravagant and formal attire is common. This means smart tuxedos for men and lavish dresses for women.
