poll: extreme wedding requests...
i was talking to my MIL this weekend about her friend whose son is getting married. the bride is requiring that everyone who will be in pictures (so more than just wedding party) only wear colors from a palette of colors she has chosen. she wants everyone matching for the pictures. apparently the groom's sisters are furious. way to ingratiate yourself with the inlaws!
what are some out of line requests from brides you have heard?

Re: poll: extreme wedding requests...
I honestly haven't been that involved with any other weddings so I can't think of anything.
If a bride requested I wear a certain color and I wasn't part of the wedding party I would probably find it a little odd. I'd do it of course, but I'd find it a little controlling.
I guess I just didn't care about so much of the wedding type stuff that I'm surprised at what some other people come up with.
I don't think that's unreasonable. Find a trendy/attractive outfit in that palette, expand your creativity. My inlaws and extended family purposefully tried to dress according to the wedding colors, and I didn't even ask them to.
But for the sake of the game...
Most weird request: man...I'm a wedding photographer and I know I've seen some doozies but nothing's coming to mind lol. I suck at this.

I went to a black&white wedding once. It didn't bother me - because I already have a few black dresses to choose from. I'd find it stranger if it was like, come in olive green, or come in lavender. A color that isn't already in most closets.
I know a couple that said "come in any shade of purple." I thought that was a little strange. I've heard of some much more awful wedding requests, of course, but still thought it was strange.
