Oh no, she didn’t.
When you marry someone — unfortunately, you also marry their family.
Dealing with a monster of a mother-in-law after you say your “I do’s” is one thing, but having to put up with their shenanigans on the day of your wedding is another kind of evil.
That’s exactly what happened to one bride whose mother-in-law wore an almost identical dress to her wedding gown.
The livid bride took to the r/weddingshaming subreddit on Reddit to share her frustrating story.
Underneath a blurred picture of the bride, groom and his mother in her matching dress, the original poster wrote: “She cried LOUDLY the night before our destination wedding about how disappointed she was that her son chose me ‘out of all his options.’ Then proceeded to not sign the guest book or gift us anything, even a card.”
Sadly, this is not the first — and definitely won’t be the last mother of the groom to be toxic and miserable for a bride to deal with.
And based on the many responses in the post’s thread, this bride is not alone.
“This happened to my BFF. It was a small wedding, too. They were not tears of joy. I remember her, in full traditional Korean hanbok, bright pink and blue, looking like the world was ending. All through dinner she was wiping her tears with her napkin. Her entire family ignored it.”
“My grandma was apparently wandering around my parents wedding telling everyone that ‘today is worse than the day the barn burned down.’”
“‘Didn’t sign the guest book or send a gift’ but she still showed up to make sure her triflin a– was in all the pictures in white no less.”
As the saying goes, misery loves company. One woman posted a TikTok video asking others to share their unhinged mother-in-law stories — and the responses were wild.
“Judges me for being a SAHM [stay at home mom] and ‘using her son for money,’” one commenter shared.
“My MIL sits in my apartment parking lot and watches us through the windows,” another person revealed.
“She called me a murderer 3 hours after I gave birth to my stillborn daughter,” a shocking comment read.
