Brody Jenner and Tia Blanco got married in Malibu last weekend. It was a small ceremony that took place in Brody’s mother, Linda Thompson’s, backyard. There were some notable absences, like Brody’s half-sisters, Kendall Jenner and Kylie Jenner, but the rest of the extended Jenner family was there, including Caitlyn Jenner. Last week, we got glimpses of Tia’s dress and the festivities, courtesy of pictures that had been posted to Instagram, but nothing official. Well, People got the exclusive pictures, which gave us a more detailed look at the fashion. The bride wore a beautiful floral corset gown by WONÁ, the groom wore black Dolce & Gabbana, the mother of the groom wore green, and the father of the groom wore a white dress with a white cardigan.
While Brody Jenner said ‘I do’ to his partner Tia Blanco, fans couldn’t help but notice one fashion faux pas at their dreamy wedding. Caitlyn Jenner, who attended the private ceremony, was photographed standing alongside the happy couple wearing a white dress — a traditional color reserved for the bride.
In photos obtained by People, Caitlyn, 75, wore a button-up, midi-length white dress cinched at the waist with a brown belt. She completed the look with a white open cardigan and strappy sandals that matched her belt.
Fans quickly took notice of her outfit’s color after the outlet posted the wedding photos. One user commented, “Caitlyn did not get the memo about not wearing white to someone’s wedding?” while another asked, “Why is Caitlyn wearing white?”
This sentiment echoed across the comments and spilled over onto other platforms like TikTok, where a video compilation highlighted Caitlyn’s controversial fashion choice.
Since white is traditionally reserved for the bride, many argued that Caitlyn broke a major wedding guest rule. Others suggested it was likely an innocent wardrobe accident with no ill intent. As of now, Caitlyn has not responded to the controversy.
Aside from Caitlyn’s unconventional outfit, fans are also buzzing about the couple’s stunning celebration, which took place at their private six-acre Malibu estate over the weekend.
As for the bridal attire, Blanco wore a WONÁ wedding dress adorned with floral accents. Her tulle gown featured a detailed corset, heart-shaped neckline and embroidered sleeves. Brody chose a classic black suit designed and fitted by Dolce & Gabbana.
“Surrounded by our closest friends and family, we celebrated a day that felt like pure magic,” Brody told People. “What made it even more special was having our beautiful daughter, Honey, right there with us.”
The couple welcomed their first child in July 2023, following their engagement during their baby shower.
“Watching her smile light up the day reminded us exactly why this moment meant so much. She wasn’t just a part of the ceremony, she was the heart of it. It was raw, real, and full of meaning — just the way we wanted it.”
Caitlyn’s white dress (last photo in slideshow here) feels like it belongs in a “Wedding Fails” subreddit! Everyone knows that wearing a white dress to a wedding is a no-no. Heck, it’s questionable to wear any color that’s at risk of photographing poorly, like pale pink or light yellow. Do we think that she asked Tia to approve of the dress ahead of time? Or did she just cluelessly show up? Oh, to be a fly on the walls behind those scenes, ha.
We also get better shots of Tia’s wedding dress, and it is even more gorgeous than it looked in the unauthorized pictures. I think this may be my favorite celebrity wedding dress in recent history. I love it. The strapless, corset top fits her perfectly. That gown is whimsical. Those sleeves perfectly melt into gloves. The entire ensemble is flawless, but my favorite part is how sweet their daughter, Honey, looked. She’s so adorable! That is the perfect ‘Mommy and Me’ look.
She’s so selfish and disrespectful of course Caitlyn wore white to her son’s wedding.
Did his sister’s month show up…?
A very ill-fitting white dress, at that. Self-centered idiot.
On the other hand, the wedding couple & their daughter all looked quite lovely. That is a beautiful wedding gown & I love her daughter’s little matching gown + her pink New Balance!! So cute!
A couple of people wore white to my wedding and I could not have cared less. I was happy they were there. No one eclipses the bride so I have never understood the outrage over it. Who cares what other people wear, it isn’t a costume ball or competition, it’s a celebration that can’t be spoiled by someone else’s outfit.
It’s funny the emphasis placed on the bride wearing white. It started with Queen Victoria wearing a white gown to her wedding and became a fashion trend. It’s funny to me how rabidly this tradition is defended and adhered to by countries who otherwise have differentiated themselves and their traditions from the British royals.
Totally agree! Unless it’s a kind of bridal dress, I couldn’t care less.
Here, Caitlin Jenner’s dress is quite informal, nothing for the bride to feel threatened about IMO.
It’s not so bad if anything she’s too informally dressed wearing a shirt dress and a cardigan to a wedding. It’s a shame she couldn’t pick something that wasn’t white though but she doesn’t upstage the bride at all.
White can also symbolize a colour of morning. While I´m hesitant to defend anything CJ related, she did lose her close friend very recently so maybe, just maybe, that might be the reason for this colour.
Tia’s gown is so beautiful, I can’t imagine anyone upstaging that. I’ve seen Caitlyn wear much sleeker outfits than this – it’s like she’s wearing a laundry bag.
All I can think is that this is so CJ. You want to like her, and one’s heart aches for her, losing her life partner. And then she does or says something so messed up all the goodwill evaporates. I can’t imagine how hard it must be to be her child.
It’s dumb, but the fact is, wearing white to a wedding says, “I know, and I don’t care.” We’ve had our quibbles here about buttery yellow of Kate’s dress–but Caitlyn’s dress is on-the-nose wedding cream white, and it could serve as a bridal look itself.
It would have been so simple for her to choose another color.It is a way of showing support. But nooooooo.
She just really sucks. I’m sorry she evaporated the spot of goodwill I held for her during this time of loss.
Adding to this, she chose her name Caitlyn when Brody was dating a Kaitlynn.
SERIOUSLY?!!! I did not know that. That is twisted.
I want to give her the benefit of the doubt. That this was approved in advance by the bride. But Caitlyn seems to do whatever she wants. So, I would say it’s a no.
But she did just suffer a personal loss and maybe wanted to not wear black in mourning. And maybe this is stretching it. But Blanco is the masculine form of white. Maybe it was in her way a nod to her new daughter in law maiden last name.
Don’t care about any MAGGOTT suffering a personal loss.
Caitlin Jenner only thinks of Caitlin Jenner. Wearing white was no homage to her new daughter-in-law, that’s some crazy rota rat thinking right there.
Let’s be real, that is an ugly dress, she looks dumpy and disheveled, and no one is gonna mistake her for the bride. Still rude nonetheless but what else can we expect from MAGA?
The dress is bad and the color inappropriate. But the shoes? Those shoes are a crime!
To those saying she’s in mourning: she could’ve worn gray if black was too bleak. Hell, in my culture, purple is a mourning color too. There’s just workarounds to wearing literally the same shade of white as the bride. Full stop. Second, she looks disheveled and the dress isn’t even appropriate for more than a lunch date; certainly not your son’s wedding. Sophia’s loss was recent enough that by all means, Caitlin should’ve had a proper dress picked out already so the loss is no excuse (mind you, looking exhausted and not having impeccable hair and makeup is something that I will give her wiggle room on, because we would all look horrendous having lost a loved one just prior). Like someone commented before me, the crappy white dress is giving “I just don’t care enough.” Finally, ARE WE NOT GOING TO TALK ABOUT HOW HER PINKY TOE IS TRYING TO ESCAPE HER SANDALS LIKE IT’S BEING CHASED BY THE COPS LMAO?!
And sorry, but love of her life? What is this? The 4th or 5th one?
Reading the wedding subreddits is one of my quiet amusements. I’ve come to the conclusion that all of these wedding “rules” aren’t about respect or disrespect, but just a chance for rubberneckers to shit stir and cause drama. It’s moved beyond rolling your eyes and seeing someone as gauche. Now it’s a deadly insult to the bride and “ruining her day.” Honestly, giving other people that much power over your happiness is something to grow beyond.
I hope the reaction of the lovely bride and her handsome husband was to laugh and think “F#cking Caitlyn, at it again.”
I think Caitlyn looked fine. Her outfit in no way can be confused as bridal.
I don’t get how it’s become such a taboo to wear white to a wedding. As long as the dress doesn’t resemble a wedding dress it shouldn’t be a problem. It seems like this is a recent trend, I don’t remember it being a rule when I got married in the 80’s.
Same. Way, way back when I married and went to friends weddings, I was not aware there was a dress code that only the bride wore white. Don’t think it existed then.
Same here!
I don’t find wearing white inappropriate, especially for a summer wedding
I’m just glad that my first impression – that the dress had a cut out at the waist, exposing her mid-section – was just an optical illusion created by the belt being the same color, tone as Caitlyn’s face and beck.
Do you give a wedding present if it’s their second marriage….cause I wouldn’t.
Brody Jenner was never legally married to Kaitlyn Carter, my memory bank said. So I looked it up and they had a ceremony but did not obtain a marriage license first, so not valid. This now would be his first “legal” marriage .Anyone else recall this or am I just remembering old gossip?
You are correct, Libra. They were never legally married. I also looked this up last week when covering their wedding the first time.
But they celebrated like if was a “legal” marriage. They had a party hence my question. Brody’s an ass so I hope nobody bothered.
If you’re invited to the wedding, you should.
Even if the Bride gives permission, wearing white to someone else’s wedding sends a certain message, and its not a good one.
Which message?
100 % honest question because I wouldn’t care if anyone wore a white dress to my wedding as long as it’s not bridal
I’m glad there are enough emotionally
mature people out there to take it in stride when someone makes the white faux pas at a wedding. I’m not as gracious, and I really hate this behavior. It’s such a psychological flag. “Everybody look at me, I’m more important, I can’t be on the back burner. I can’t play second fiddle. I’m desperate for attention and relevance and I’m jealous of the bride, I feel like my time has passed and I’m gonna claw it back willfully by wearing white/cream/pale pink or what the eff ever.”
Urgh. My sister showed up to my brothers wedding in a poofy white dress, that she had never worn before or since, because she’s a narcissist and she doesn’t care about anything but herself (and has proven this on many other occasions). I wouldnt be surprised if Caitlynn has a bit of the ol’ narc’s sauce, considering her actions and the family she’s associated with. It’s very “look at me”, especially if you’re close family and part of the wedding party/ photos. Like if you’re the second cousin in the back, maybe no one cares lol. But here it’s the mother/ father-ish
OMG Jenner looks awful. dumpy and frumpy, with a dress that looks like it doesn’t fit, nipple showing AND those shoes look like a pair of tire sandals.
Well she’s been married 3 times and never got to wear a white dress….
Jenner looks so Unkept, as if she woke up late and just came to the wedding without fixing up!
