'That is not OK': Wedding planner confronts four guests for wearing white
A wedding planner has shared the one thing that is absolutely 'not OK' as a guest at a wedding.
In a TikTok, Cari Izaguirre vented her frustration at not one, not two, but four separate guests showing up to a wedding she had planned wearing white.
Watch the video above.
"You do not wear white to a wedding, or like a light ivory, you just don't. You just don't do it," she said.

A US wedding planner has confronted four separate guests after they all showed up wearing white. TikTok
"So, we have a wedding going on right now, and four people, four people are wearing it. And there's one that's wearing a full-on wedding dress."
She continues to take viewers around the wedding, subtly pointing out each guest wearing white, including one who is indeed wearing what looks an awful lot like a wedding dress.
A recent exclusive Nine.com.au reader poll showed the majority of Australians are aware of the unspoken rule that you don't wear white to a wedding.
50 per cent of respondents said that it's not OK, while 11 per cent declared it depends on the situation.

"I don't think wedding guests should wear white, but it's OK for the bride," one Nine.com.au reader wrote.
Others disagreed with that sentiment, saying it just depends on what the bride wants.
However the comments on Izaguirre's video seemed to agree with her, with one user sharing, "I *accidentally* spilled strawberry margarita on the white dress of a guest at my moms wedding 20 years ago. 🤭"
Even if they thought that some of the dresses pointed out were OK to wear, almost all commenters seemed to agree the one resembling a wedding dress was crossing a line.
"That one that looks like an actual wedding dress floored me 😂🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️" commented one user.
"I GASPED at the second one," agreed another.
Viewers were also begging Izaguirre to share what she did about the issue.
One user commented, "What did you say and what was their reaction?? The suspense!!!!"
Another posed a great question: "I totally agree but what happens when you say something to them? It isn't like they will leave and change. I'd love to know how the convo goes."

Thankfully, Izaguirre responded to the comments in an update video the following day.
"Let me just explain to you guys, the bride is the one that spotted these guests first, not me," she said.
She explained that as per the bride's request, she went up to each of the four guests to speak with them about their outfit choice.
Each had varying responses (excuses), including one explaining they had known the bride while she was little so 'it would be fine' and another saying that in her culture the dress she had worn was appropriate.

Izaguirre said the bride requested she speak to the guests to make sure they stay out of professional photos and videos. TikTok
"I did have to let them know they couldn't sit on the aisle," she explained, "because both the photographer and the videographer said if they sit on the aisle then it's going to appear very white.
"The bride and her mum said 'as long as they're just out of the way.
"People need to know that it's not okay, you do not wear this type of stuff at a wedding. You just don't," she added.
"They [the four guests] were not apologetic whatsoever, and it just blows my mind. It blows my mind."
