Mother Breaks The Internet When She Lets Her 2-Year-Old Son Wear A Dress To Her Wedding

When his sisters and dad saw him, we all just laughed and thought it was cute. He is has no idea he is a boy yet and doesn’t bear the weight of society’s expectations. My biggest concern wasn’t anything to do with society, it was just that he would trip over something because the dress was quite long.

It has become a regular occurrence for him to want to wear Minnie Mouse. He has shirts, dresses, and socks. He loves a cat dress that belonged to his sister, too.

When I married my husband in May this year, I had bought my son a kilt from Scotland (my homeland) to wear.

I imagined him looking so smart standing waiting for me with his dad. He refused to wear it. At first, I was a little disappointed when he didn’t want to wear it because I thought he would have looked really good in it. But I realized quite quickly I would have to adjust my expectations.

We then bought a little suit to look just like his dad’s so they could be matching on the day. We brought it out for him to try on but he cried and got so upset. That was the reaction every time he saw it and he refused to even try it on.

From the look of sheer delight when he saw his sisters’ dresses for the day, I knew then we would most likely have to get him a dress to wear.

We borrowed a beautiful blue dress from a friend last minute and brought it with us in case he still had the same reaction to seeing the suit that matched his dad’s. My husband and I discussed it and said we would try the suit first, but if that failed, we would show him the dress. We knew that deep down. We both laughed about it because to us, it’s not that big a deal, so it wasn’t a hard decision. Ultimately, we knew the dress was what he was going to wear.
