mother of the groom

Is it ever acceptable to upstage the bride at a wedding?
From over the top mother-of-the groom dresses, to badly behaved bridesmaids - weddings are always a topic that get people talking. And while brides-to-be often slim down in order to get in the best shape possible for their big day, one woman teamed up with her friend ahead of her wedding as the pair took on a challenge to lose weight. Unfortunately, while they both started off weighing 16 stone, the friend managed to sh mother of the groom ... ift the weight losing a whopping 6 stone, the bride didn't actually manage to stick to the diet and is still the same size ahead of her impending wedding. Having lost so much weight the friend now wants to wear a skintight dress to show off her new figure at her pal's wedding but is being slammed online for potentially stealing attention from the bride on her wedding day.
So should guests be mindful not to upstage the bride when choosing what to wear?
Or should brides not have a say?
