All green?
Or with some green?
My mother's wedding dress had green in it.
Even if it was all-green, I'd think the kallah was a funky girl who doesn't conform. To me, it wouldn't reflect on the parents or rest of the family.
I have a green dress that is a 1960s/or 70s?? prom dress or bridesmaid dress that I've worn for Purim a couple of times if she is interested in it. I don't think I can fit into now--it's a small size.

I wouldn't be surprised if this kallah (and maybe the mother too) are unhappy souls and suffer from inferior complex if they need to be different than the norm and outdo others.

Unless she does it because her father (a Rebbe) would not allow her to wear white believing it's a non jewish custom.

I thought the thread title was referring to being environmentally friendly, lol.
I was imagining a post on how to get a wedding gown made of recycled materials or s/t like that
as for a green wedding dress? never understood the need for ppl to make others talk about them and how unique they r. but I guess, to each their own.
just tell her to make sure she doesnt blend in too well with the flowers...
wouldnt want to mistake the bride for some foliage.

So that's the answer. Now it makes sense. Women's Lib = "feifen auf de velt" - to go against anything traditional and any accepted norm.
And btw smart people can also have inferior complex.

Anyway, I dont know but dont think she has an inferiority complex. She actually thinks she is very smart. They live in a chassidish community but they are more modern... probably Litvish but they do some things that even litvish wouldnt do. But they sure dress Litvish (at least the girls and most of the boys), learn in top places etc.
The green dress is totally not having to do with not being like the non jews. The kallah is somewhat into women's lib. She also doesnt like conforming. As I said they are litvish, and she goes to university, learns gemara, etc. (I dont necessarily have a problem with a lot of it, but it's sure not standard there). |
OP, maybe you should make up your mind if she is chassidish, modern or Litvish? To me it sounds downright trollish.
