My Mom Ruined My Wedding - She Had Only One Job to Do

Weddings are a symphony of meticulously planned details, with each element reflecting the personal taste and vision of the bride and groom. However, this bride got into a big disagreement with her mother about a bridesmaid's dress.

Every detail of a bride's wedding matters, from the flowers to the wedding dress to the bridesmaids' attire. It can be stressful for the bride to handle everything alone, which is why family is important as they can help alleviate some of the stress.

However, things can go south if they are not done the way the bride planned. A TikTok video posted on @itsgoneviral shows a heated argument between a mother and daughter. From the context of the argument, the daughter, who is about to get married, asked her mother to shop for a specific kind of bridesmaid dress.

The mother showed up with a long dress that looked fitted and flared at the bottom. It was a mixture of white and blue, with the blue peeking out on the sides and the white in the middle. However, the daughter completely hated the dress and was even shocked when her mother told her she had gone ahead and purchased five of the dresses.

Firstly, the daughter was angry that her mother had not followed any of the instructions she had given her. She had asked for the dresses to not have any white in them and reminded her mother of the detailed conversation they had beforehand.

Her father was in the room trying to mitigate the situation. The daughter turned to her father, telling him that she had specifically said not to get anything tight-fitting or long. But the mother was offended at her daughter’s disapproval of the dress. “There’s just no pleasing you,” she said.

The daughter emphasized, “No Mum, this was like the one job that you wanted to do,” and continued to reiterate how much she hated the dress. "I'm so mad." she added. The mother was in complete shock. “You are so ungrateful,” she expressed.

She stressed that she had been out all morning trying to find the dresses, but the daughter still could not get over how much the dresses just did not represent anything she wanted or asked for.

Her father tried to intervene again, saying, “It's alright. I love it. What's wrong with that?” The daughter continuously asked her mother, “What were the things I said?” but her mother insisted she look at how nice the material looked and how beautiful the dress was.

Still, there was no convincing the bride-to-be. “No,” she kept saying as she also tried to explain to her father exactly what she envisioned for her bridesmaid dresses. “No Dad, I said go to the shop and get one that you can take back with a receipt so we can have a look at it.”

Trying as hard as he could to keep the peace, the father maintained, “Your mother worked really hard to get that. There’s nothing wrong with it. That is fine.” The bride found herself overpowered by her parents and could not find a way out.

However, people in the comment section completely understood her frustrations. In fact, the entire conversation was a traumatic trigger for some viewers. “She’s really gaslighting her. My mom is exactly the same,” remarked a commenter.

“Classic case of the mom projecting her ideas instead of listening to the bride,” added another viewer. One person thought it was unfair for the mother to say there was no pleasing her when her daughter gave her specific details about what she wanted.

Another bride in the comment section reiterated that she was on the bride's side. “Her wedding is her rules,” she emphasized. One netizen said for her wedding, she chose to give her mother a task she did not care much about because she knew she would ruin her wedding.

Regardless of how the viewers tried to look at the situation, many found the mother in the wrong. “The mother shouldn't have done whatever she wanted. This isn't her wedding,” reiterated another commenter.

The bride in the video seemed completely blindsided and hurt by what her mother had done, and many commenters thought this story was a reminder of the delicate balance required when family members contribute to wedding preparations. While the intention to help is often appreciated, adhering to the bride's specific wishes is crucial to ensure her vision for the special day is realized.

Here is a story about a mother-in-law who tried to ruin her son's wedding.

In what can only be described as a series of wedding day nightmares, a bride named Stasia took to TikTok to share her unbelievable experience with her mother-in-law. The incidents, which unfolded over the course of her wedding, have left people in shock and have gone viral, highlighting the lengths to which some will go to make their presence felt, even on another's big day.

Stasia's troubles began during what should have been one of the most magical moments of her wedding. "Did your mother-in-law interrupt your first dance or ruin your wedding? Because mine did," Stasia recounted on her TikTok account @stasiasvcks, still visibly upset by the memories.

As Stasia and her new husband embarked on their first dance, the atmosphere was enchanting — an intimate moment on an empty dance floor. However, the bliss was short-lived. Stasia recalled, "Two minutes into dancing, my husband and I are twirling around, enjoying ourselves. There's nobody else on the dance floor." Just as they leaned in for a kiss, a tap on Stasia's shoulder shattered the romantic ambiance.

Her mother-in-law, with an unsettling grin, interrupted the dance, beckoning for her son's return. Stasia and her husband attempted to gracefully evade the intrusion, twirling away and leaving the mother-in-law to a self-inflicted "walk of shame" back to her table. It was later revealed that Stasia's father had warned the groom's mother against such disruptions, a caution she blatantly ignored.

This disruption, however, was not an isolated incident. Stasia recounted how, before the wedding, her mother-in-law protested vehemently when the couple decided to stay in a hotel instead of her house. The drama continued post-wedding when the newlyweds opted for privacy instead of immediately visiting the mother-in-law's home.

This series of events led Stasia and her husband to sever ties with his mother.

Stasia explained, "We wanted to stay in bed and do adult things that married couples do." But the trials didn't end there. Stasia, who eloped and was five weeks pregnant during her wedding, endured nearly a year of meddling until her husband took a stand.

Even the wedding ceremony was not spared from the MIL's intrusive actions. Stasia shared video evidence from her big day, revealing the shocking moment when her mother-in-law abruptly stood up and handed the groom a tissue, disrupting his heartfelt expression of love.

Stasia, clearly displeased, commented, "This may not look like much; however, karma, he was mid-sentence professing his love for me. He is a grown man and did not need mummy to hand him a tissue."

The unexpected interruption caused a ripple of laughter among the witnesses, turning a solemn moment into an unintentional comedic interlude. Stasia's narration emphasized the situation's awkwardness, dubbing the mother-in-law's actions as "super cringe."

Yet, the most egregious of the mother-in-law's actions was her announcement of Stasia's pregnancy during the wedding. Without consent, she stormed into the bridal suite, declaring to all present that Stasia was carrying her grandchild.

Her refusal to leave the suite until confronted by Stasia's father was a stark violation of privacy. Taking it a step further, she grabbed the microphone to publicly announce the pregnancy and shared unfounded plans about the couple's future, including moving from Los Angeles to Chicago and living on her street.

This series of events led Stasia and her husband to sever ties with his mother. The culmination of her actions not only caused distress on their wedding day but also strained their relationship to the breaking point. Per Stasia, her MIL was no longer allowed at their house.

In another video, Stasia shed light on a disturbing episode that unfolded just four days after she welcomed her daughter. The video showcased screenshots of messages sent by her mother-in-law to her husband, exploiting the joyous occasion of her granddaughter's birth to launch a scathing critique of Stasia.

In the video, Stasia expressed her exasperation, disclosing, "This lady made my entire pregnancy about her. This all stems from referring to me basically as an incubator and calling my daughter 'her baby' that I was carrying. This lady thinks that she's my daughter's mom — it's crazy."

The messages, as shared by Stasia, portrayed a level of intrusion that went beyond the bounds of normalcy. Stasia recounted how her mother-in-law would impose herself on her household, despite the logistical challenge of flying to their location. This behavior, which Stasia labeled as extremely selfish, echoed the disruptive pattern witnessed during her wedding.

Stasia's frustration and disbelief were palpable as she continued, "I can give more context, more stories, but these are some beautiful messages she sent her son because we just can't have anything nice, right? Like everything has to be ruined."

In an additional revelation, Stasia disclosed that her mother-in-law chose not to communicate with her during the last ten weeks of her pregnancy. Despite this apparent silence, Stasia clarified that she had never been disrespectful to her mother-in-law face-to-face or over the phone, except for her candid expressions on TikTok.

Stasia's ordeal gained significant traction online, with many users resonating with her story and feeling compelled to share their own "monster-in-law" experiences in the comments.

"My MIL tried to kiss my husband on the lips when he was drunk 😐," said one user. "Mine faced the audience after she was escorted up the aisle and told everyone it was the worst day of her life 💀," chimed in another. "My MIL got mad at us because we didn't throw her a birthday party at our wedding reception. We got married 12/5 and her birthday is 12/16," echoed a third commenter.

"Mine told my husband 'I'll always be your mom, she may not always be your wife - prioritize me.' No joke," expressed another user. "My MIL told me on my wedding day that it was a beautiful wedding for my [husband's] first marriage but don't expect it to be his last 😳," noted another shocked netizen.

More people rallied in support of Stasia, with one person stating, "Huge red flag. Husbands need to set boundaries." A second person quipped, "I'm with you sis. She was dead wrong." Meanwhile, another stunned user wrote, "I cannot believe she did that the absolute audacity [sic]."
