Sadly, it is not that unusual for brides-to-be and their future mothers-in-law to start off on a rocky relationship, however, most try for the sake of the groom to make it work. But when you find your fiancé’s mother doing something so shocking it makes you think of taking legal action… There may be no way back to family bliss…
A Tense Relationship

A Tense Relationship
Tracey felt that she just had to share her confrontation with her fiancé’s mother with Reddit, with just a few months left before attending her own wedding in Colombia. Granted, Tracey and the older woman had disagreed on more than one occasion before the unforgiveable act…
Caught in the Act
Tracey made a point of being mature and agreeable during their disagreements, on an unconditional level. However, finding her future mother-in-law messing around with her wedding gown was simply unmanageable. She had crossed many lines before, but this was one that Tracey could not forgive, or even believe. She had tried her best to be civil for a long time, but this was beyond politeness. Perhaps you would like to know just what happened?

Caught In The Act
Meant to Be
Much of a happy marriage’s functioning is based on one’s relationship with their significant other’s family. All that Tracy wanted to be a healthy friendship with her fiancé’s mother when she agreed to her beloved Rick’s proposal. But as the stereotypical story goes, there was one matriarchal figure that would ensure that Tracey struggled to bite her tongue at almost every turn. When you marry someone, you also marry their family, for better or for worse.

Meant To Be
People You can Depend on
Weddings are infamously stressful events to organize, meaning that the responsibility on the couple mounts. For this reason, couples often turn to their friends and family to ease the strain of this crazy time. You like to think that those closest to you will do their best to help you and take a load off your schedule, but these loved ones often just make everything that much harder to bear.

People You Can Depend On
Things Fall Apart
Browsing through Rick and Tracey’s social media accounts, the illusion of a perfect pairing strikes the viewer. They loved posing together in romantic and joyful settings, looking like the happiest pair in the world. But the fantasy of social media often hides a darker truth, one that people do their best to keep from the public at large. Indeed, the pair were committed to building a life together, prior to disaster wrecking their hopes…

Things Fall Apart
The High-Fashion Gown
It might be hard to believe that something as innocent as a wedding gown would be the nail in the coffin of this wild tale. This is meant to be one of the most fabulous items of clothing that a person ever wears, making them feel like a dazzling queen, even if for just one day. Of course, Tracey wanted nothing but the most splendid gown for her wedding day.

The High Fashion Gown
Extravagant Heights
Tracey set her sights on an opulent couture atelier design from Galia Lahav. This was the spot where top celebrities like Beyoncé purchased their personal wedding gowns. She had decided that she could only accept a garment good enough for the stars, and was not going to skimp on this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to stun her friends and family. Not surprisingly, therefore, Tracey’s particular design went for $11,000! Certainly an extravagant choice.

Extravagant Heights
A Dreamlike Occasion
Despite the extravagant costs, so many women justify the price due to the significance of their wedding day. There are plenty of individuals who have committed to extreme loans just to make their special day as perfect as possible. While we do not suggest that you bankrupt yourself before you even begin your life with your partner, a wedding dress should be exquisite. Make this a day to remember, ladies!

A Dreamlike Occasion
The Ideal Venue
Many engaged couples strive to secure a wedding venue that is local. Tracey and Rick, on the other hand, had Colombia in mind as the perfect spot. “We’re planning to be married in December in Colombia and of course, I’m beyond pumped,” Tracey went on to describe in her Facebook status. You might be wondering why they chose such a distant venue. Clearly, there was something there that they could not miss out on.

The Ideal Venue
Disagreeable
Tracey had her dream wedding all planned out, having convinced Rick into agreeing to the fantasy getaway. She said, “It was going to be a destination wedding for us, and I was very happy that I was able to talk him into having one.” It seemed like Rick was the type of man that would do anything to make his partner happy. There was a significant family member, however, who thought less of the plan…

Disagreeable
Mommy Matters
Rick’s mother, Gina, did not hesitate to voice her criticisms of such a distant wedding venue. Tracey described how Gina could not empathize with the couple’s wishes to tie the knot in a location where people did not speak English! This rather prejudiced concern was not going to stop Tracey from fulfilling her matrimonial destiny, however. Tracey passed Gina’s worries off as a closed-minded pettiness. This was only the beginning of the problem…

Mommy Matters
Worthy Objections
Beyond the language issues, Gina voiced her concerns regarding potential safety issues in the South American country, not to mention the attached expenses. There is a widespread fear of SOuth American countries among Americans, who believe that they are filled with murderers and kidnappers. If only they knew… Despite expressing some respectable issues with their plan, Tracey couldn’t help feeling that Gina did not have their best interests in mind.

Worthy Objections
Not Seeing Eye to Eye
Tracey was under the impression that Gina would criticize any wedding plan that the couple entertained. She was a stubborn and negative woman that could not see any good in anything that Tracey put forwards. Eventually, it was apparent that the two women did not see eye to eye. While it was regrettable that the two women were in constant disagreement, Tracey described how Gina was never particularly fond of her.

Not Seeing Eye To Eye
A Shaky Relationship
“She’s polite and very ‘fake’ friendly,” Tracey wrote regarding Gina’s courteous yet insincerely warm regard for her future daughter-in-law. Tracey would have much preferred if Gina was openly hostile to her, rather than the sickeningly sweet prentenses. Such friction seemed to be more serious than just incompatibility. There was a deep-seated and seemingly unresolvable resentment brewing between them. But there was something more that would drive the two even further apart…

A Shaky Relationship
A Possessive Parent
As with so many relationships, the friction between Gina and Tracey appeared to stem from their sharing of Rick. The two women held pivotal places in Rick’s heart and life. When a man has an overbearing mother, almost any woman that he brings home will not be good enough. There are plenty of relationships that were driven apart thanks to the interference of a mother that wants her son all to herself…

A Possessive Parent
Strained Affections
Tracey went on to recount some rather oddly intimate moments shared between her fiancé and his mother. “She’ll do things like sit on my fiancé’s lap, or tuck his hair behind his ear, and cut his food for him,” Tracey recounted. “On one occasion I actually saw her actually feed him….in public.” While we all know our fair share of “mommy’s boys,” this is a particularly freaky and bizarre “relationship.”

Strained Affections
Establishing Limits
As one can imagine, Tracey was eager to clear the air prior to the big day. She knew that if she did not take the mature decision of reconciling with Gina, that she would have to suffer through a lifetime of petty comments and fake sweetness. This was a situation that no bride-to-be and future daughter in law could stand. Thankfully, Gina began acting more appropriately following Tracey’s voicing of her concerns to her fiancé.

Establishing Limits
The Cold Shoulder
As she felt that Gina didn’t really care for the two getting married at all, she didn’t feel like including Gina in most of the big day’s organization. When Gina found out that she had been left on the bench, she began performing like a bratty little girl. As expected, Gina began moaning to her son about being sidelined. These tensions came to a boiling point on a particularly significant occasion.

The Cold Shoulder
The New Deal
Rick suddenly found himself trying to quell a civil war. He had both women screaming in his ears, and he once more had to play the role of a UN diplomat. Following Tracey’s uncomfortable revelations, Rick knew that the time had come to confront his mother. Torn between his overbearing mother and unhappy fiancé, Rick found himself stretched. Throughout this entire troubled relationship, Rick had suffered incredibly, and he was getting tired.

The New Deal
Hopeful Aspirations
Eventually, Rick saw that he was responsible for ensuring that his growing family would be happy together. Without his father at his side, he knew that he would have to be the leading man in the growing family and take charge. Simply put, he put his mother in her place, and finally established healthy boundaries between them. Tracey positively commented on his initiative and how it stopped these odd occurrences from continuing.

Hopeful Aspirations
The Buildup
The morning when the couple’s lives would be turned upside down started just like any other. The sun was shining in full force, the sky was clear, and Tracey felt confident that this was going to be a good day. They looked out the window of their dining room and saw an approaching car. The infamous mother-in-law had arrived to view their new property. They were ecstatic at giving her a tour of their new home and new lives together.

The Buildup
Let Down
The couple warmly welcomed Gina into their lovely abode. But she did not have anything to say to them, merely gazing about their home in horror. They could not understand why she was so horror-struck when they were so proud of their place. Sadly, Gina didn’t have anything good to say. In fact, she became hostile, particularly towards Tracey. If said Reddit post is to be believed, Gina picked on Tracey in a completely unwarranted fashion.

Let Down
Sullying the Sparkle
So, just what had Tracey done to aggravate Gina? To begin with, Tracey’s engagement ring gifted to her by Rick! According to the enraged mother-in-law, this piece was just too extravagant. While we know that Tracey had a taste for the finer things in life, Gina had no place saying anything negative. Even mothers need to learn when to bite their tongue, and Gina was the kind without a filter.

Sullying The Sparkle
Scrounging for Issues
Tracey then calmly informed Gina that the ring was actually moissanite, meaning that it was much cheaper than a diamond. Tracey’s post quoted Gina’s tirade, saying how irresponsible it was to fork out so much money when there were African children going without food as well as the murderous nature of “blood diamonds.” Tracey wanted to call Gina a hypocrite, knowing full well that the snappy old woman possessed plenty of extravagant diamond jewelry herself!

Scrounging For Issues
Domestic Drama
Gina’s gripes didn’t end there, however, going from the ring to the house the couple had just purchased. She was throwing an absolute hissy fit, flapping her arms as she yelled at the couple for being so irresponsible with their savings. She accused them of not having the sense and financial modesty to raise children together successfully or smartly. Gina simply could not accept the costs of acquiring this lofty property.

Domestic Drama
Unstoppable
Gina condemned how showy they were being and that such behavior was unbecoming of her family. Tracey justified their choices once more, claiming that this “townhouse” had been acquired at a reduced price. Gina was not even listening, however, not believing or even considering that her son and his partner had managed to acquire wonderful things through crafty deals. Things didn’t cool down then, however, as Gina had only just started.

Unstoppable
Body Shaming
Things were about to get seriously ugly, reaching a level that would enrage even the calmest of people. Incredibly, Tracey managed to stay levelheaded. It seemed like Gina had reached a new level of nasty as she decided to change the conversation topic to one that should never be mentioned. Gina decided that shaming Tracey on having put on some pounds was a good idea, instructing her to lose weight prior to the big day.

Body Shaming
A Shameless Display
Tracey didn’t mince words in her Reddit post, “I’m getting fat. I need to watch the calories so I can ‘fit into my dress. Future [MIL], meanwhile, is bragging about her diet and how chic and slenderizing her mother of the bride dress is.” Gina, on the other hand, was boasting on her slimming efforts and just how amazing she looked in her own dress. She seemed to think that she was the one getting married, with how obsessed she was with turning the spotlight onto herself.

A Shameless Display
Business as Usual
Tracey was shocked at being spoken to so cruelly, despite this not having been the first time that Gina had made some unflattering comments. Despite her sporadic attempts to reach out to Tracey, Gina was mostly critical and demeaning towards her future daughter-in-law. All that Tracey wished for was for the two to reach a peaceful and agreeable understanding. If Gina would never grow to love Tracey, at the very least she could pretend to.

Business As Usual
Impossible to Please
It all came down to a very apparent disapproval of Tracey and Rick’s devotion to each other from Gina. If Rick was not going to heed his mother’s advice, then she would do her best to mould Tracey into an appropriate wife for her precious son. Nothing was ever good enough. Another obvious objective of Gina’s was her wish to hammer Tracey into the kind of partner considered appropriate for Rick.

Impossible To Please
Hands Off
Rick thankfully had the sensitivity to acknowledge just how volatile the situation between the two women had gotten. It was then that he decided to request help from Tracey to move a bed into the empty guest room. If you can’t beat them, then stay as far away as possible from them! While you might have preferred that the troublesome three had sat down to sort their differences out, this was a temporary solution.

Hands Off
Jaw-Dropping Occasions
Tracey was obviously happy to put some space between her and the vindictive Gina, moving into a room far away from the grouchy woman. Gina was the type of monster that you could not run from, however, unless you moved countries. She was as vindictive and persectuional as a tiger. Tracey’s problems were only beginning, however, as a visit to the master bedroom around thirty minutes after leaving would reveal.

Jaw Dropping Occasions
Crossing the Line
When Tracey entered the bedroom in order to use the toilet, her jaw dropped when she discovered what was waiting for her. Gina was attempting to wear her wedding dress! “What do I find but Future MIL struggling to yank my dress over her head BUT WAS FREAKING STUCK,” Tracey exclaimed. What on Earth had pushed Gina to this atrocity? Tracey felt like she had been punched in the stomach.

Crossing The Line
Feeling Light-Headed
“I blurted out ‘what the heck?!’ and Gina instantly began stuttering ‘Oh my God! OH MY GOD! OH GOD!’” The old lady had been caught in the act, and was flapping about like a mad, squawking bird trapped in the dress. No one could have expected this situation, even from Gina. If this encounter wasn’t crazy enough for any drama junkie, just hold on, the following events will blow your mind.

Feeling Light Headed
A Cautionary Tale
Tracey only had moments to make sense of the scene. She quickly approached Gina, instructing her to take her hands off her luxury haute couture dress immediately! This was something easier said than done, however, as the older lady was completely stuck! Tracey was forced to aid the wild woman in taking it off. It was a terrible mixture of panicked care and desperation, as Tracey was terrified that the fragile dress would break.

A Cautionary Tale
Forced to Cooperate
Tracey was obviously very worried about her dress’ safety, fretting that its sheer back would begin to rip while attempting to aid Gina out of her gown. Gina was not being very cooperative either, having launched into a panic when she was caught trying on Gina’s dress, made all the worse when she became trapped in it. The best of intentions and plans often go awry, as we will soon discover…

Forced To Cooperate
Ripped and Ruined
The usually simple act of removing a dress turned into a maddened fight against the materials. Then there a sickening ripening sound. Tracey was heartbroken upon witnessing the damage done, as Gina had torn a hole through the sheet material while trying to escape. “It was all for not as she managed to scratch her way through the back of the dress and completely destroy the sheer material,” Tracey sadly added.

Ripped And Ruined
An Expensive Waste
“She burst the side zipper of the dress and got a dirty footprint on the train.” One truly cannot fault Tracey for the incredulity and irritation she experienced following this encounter. Understandably, she expected some answers from Gina! But was the badly mannered woman about to take responsibility for her crazy actions? Frankly, Tracey was beyond caring for an apology at this stage, holding the wrecked remains of her fabulously expensive dress.

An Expensive Waste
Utterly Speechless
Tracey failed to find the words to express her distress at seeing her prized garment ripped to pieces. She had to hold her head in order to muffle the screech she so desperately needed to let out. She was shaking with grief, as if someone that she loved dearly had been murdered before her eyes. She had taken a lot of irritation and hurt from Gina, but this was something that she could never let go.

Utterly Speechless
Unforgivable
Gina was the source of much of Tracey’s misery, to begin with, but this new level of destruction was unmanageable. It was beyond Tracey’s imagination how anyone could be so cruel. Tracey understandably immediately held Gina accountable. She had gone out of her way to greatly wrong her future daughter in law in a shameless and ridiculous act of jealousy and possessiveness. So, how did Gina respond to Tracey’s demands?

Unforgivable
A Fitting Response
Tracey simply wanted to find out what possessed Gina to try her dress on in the first place. “She responded that she was just trying to make sure the dress would fit me; because if the dress fit her, then it absolutely fit me too,” Tracey explained. Not only had Gina ruined Tracey’s dress, but she went on to body shame her again! To add insult to injury, Tracey was once again being mocked by Gina.

A Fitting Response
An Inappropriate Response
“If it didn’t fit her, then I obviously had some work to do.” Clearly, Tracey was well aware that it fitted her, having previously fitted into it perfectly. It was like the dress had been made for her. Gina had crossed the line for the last time, and Tracey was very close to dishoning her. We’ve heard from the two ladies, but how did the man in this story respond to the drama?

An Inappropriate Response
Dazed and Confused
Tracey did not stand alone in her shock and upset at Gina’s mindless antics. Rick also responded in turn to his mother’s stunt, completely perplexed. He knew his mother’s seizing of the dress was not a harmless idea. She had always gone to terrible lengths to break up his previous relationships, but he could not let her do it this time. This was the love of his life, after all.

Dazed And Confused
Living in a Dream World
Further to Gina’s strange and disturbing behavior, she had also brought in a bunch of flowers to the room. Apparently, the older woman was playing at being the bride! This is all rather sinister, isn’t it? It was clear that Gina had some kind of disturbing attachment to her son, and would marry him if it meant that he would never leave her. Unfortunately, Gina didn’t stop there with her shocking behavior!

Living In A Dream World
Fixing Things
In Tracey’s mind, the least that Gina could do was pay for the fixing of the dress. Sadly, even this humble request was too optimistic considering Gina’s reluctance to do right by the couple. It was an incredibly expensive dress, and maybe Gina was uninterested in paying for its repairs, especially given how critical she had been of its cost in the first place. What Gina decided to do next is beyond imagination.

Fixing Things
Hidden Agenda
Tracey explained Gina’s reluctance to help, “She hasn’t offered to pay for any of the repairs to the dress. A section of the train is ripped.” Tracey was unable to guess just how much the repairs would cost without the attention of a relevantly skilled seamstress. Gina not only refused to cough up, but she also had a hidden agenda in store for the couple, all on the same day!

Hidden Agenda
Unabashed
Gina could have just apologized for what she did – not so. She would add fuel to the flames by reproaching Tracey for having spent so much money on the dress in the first place! If you guessed that this would be Gina’s reaction, based on her previous scolding, then give yourself a pat on the back! When someone wrongs you, no matter how badly, you expect that they will do their best to make things right again.

Unabashed
Stepping Up
“In the meantime, in lieu of an apology, she’s lecturing me on spending so much money on a wedding dress,” she recalled, “Clearly the trouble she had getting into the dress was a sign to get something less dramatic and ostentatious.” There are far more civil ways to get a point across. You never need to destroy something precious that does not even belong to you. The younger woman then decided that a plan was necessary.

Stepping Up
Consulting the Masses
Unable to contain her anger, Tracey returned to Reddit for further advice. She began considering bringing the law down on Gina’s head for the damages at hand but decided that consulting the messaging board was necessary. The last thing that Rick wanted was for his fiance and mother to enter into a legal battle, especially not weeks before their wedding day! What did the online public have to say about the whole fiasco?

Consulting The Masses
Requesting Her Just Deserts
Tracey was rightfully convinced that she deserved compensation from Gina for wrecking her dress. “I know it’s just a dress, but this goes beyond the dress,” the bride-to-be recounted. The bride to be felt that this was a wrongdoing which extended beyond just money. She needed Gina to swallow her pride and apologize for everything that she had done. As for the Redditors who read her post, they supported her qualms.

Requesting Her Just Deserts
Online Users
Supporters aside, there were plenty of Redditors who were critical of Gina’s ridiculous performance. Posts like these generally attract a lot of attention and it wasn’t long before Tracy’s story spread across the web. If Gina felt like she had not done anything wrong, there were thousands of people who felt otherwise, and were showing their disdain on social media. Would Gina ever learn of the online storm? There were plenty of Redditors then discussing this issue.

Online Users
Mass Media
One particularly incensed Redditor commented on Tracey’s post saying that Gina could choose between reimbursing her or staying at home during the wedding. If you were in Tracey’s shoes, would you put this ultimatum to your future mother in law? While this may seem harsh, this was an extreme circumstance. Aside from the Redditors thirsty for vengeance, there were plenty who just wanted to express their revulsion for the situation.

Mass Media
Return to Reddit
One user even wrote of nearly vomiting when they read about Gina’s shenanigans! This was just one of the horrified reactions to Tracey’s tale of woe. Protests aside, how did Tracey’s quest for retribution pan out? The women were no longer talking to each other, and a tense stalemate had been reached. Following a period of uncertainty lasting some months, Tracey logged back into Reddit once more to update those following her story.

Return To Reddit
Broken Promises
Tracey and Rick had both agreed (under Tracey’s command, of course) that his mother’s invitation had been withdrawn. Rick had then claimed to follow her instruction, but Tracey soon came to realize that her man had failed to deliver on his promise. Rick had now reached a point in the two women’s conflict where he had to pick a side, without any ambiguity or diplomacy. It really seemed like their relationship was now on the rocks!

Broken Promises
Wedding Crashed
Rick had also failed Tracey for the last time when he failed to follow her instructions, bringing their relationship to dangerous grounds. Tracey and Rick’s wedding booking was sadly canceled. The pair is still in a relationship though, committed to fostering their commitments to each other. “I want to be able to go the distance with him, but while she is in the picture I just don’t think I can,” the fiancé described.

Wedding Crashed
Staying Abreast
Months passed and Tracey finally felt that it was time to let Reddit know what else had happened. She wrote a detailed update for her followers regarding Gina’s activity. The one good thing to arise from this situation was Rick’s commitment to shunning his mother. She had managed to indoctrinate him into her wishes, threatening to leave him if he did not comply. Gina was still on the warpath, clearly.

Staying Abreast
Watchdog
Tracey knew quite well whether her partner was actually being true to her or not as she was obsessively going through his messages! It seemed like Rick was still a suspect. While most women resort to such behavior to see whether their man is cheating or not, in this case, it was to make sure that Rick was not contacting his mother! As if this wasn’t unbelievable enough, things were about to get even weirder.

Watchdog
Everything or Nothing
Tracey was now ready to conclude her update regarding her position with Gina. Her future mother-in-law was trying her best to reach out! After nearly a year of no contact and bitter resentment, what good could this new development bring? It would have been amazing if the two women could begin negotiating again and hopefully put the past behind them for good. What could the older woman possibly have to say to Tracey?

Everything Or Nothing
Creeping after Them
Gina obviously didn’t have anything nice to say. In fact, she was behaving rather psychotically! She would ring the couple at the crack of dawn, slip demeaning notes beneath their front door and text the pair all manner of nastiness. “Fiancé and I typically go shopping on Wednesday nights,” added Tracey. Gina would even stalk them during their scheduled evening shopping sessions each Wednesday! This was all getting disturbingly psychotic.

Creeping After Them
More Reddit Bridal Drama
Most people would not take kindly to being instructed on how to dress based on their body shape. Our next tale commences with a bride posting a message to her wedding guests on Facebook. A message this ridiculous often gets shared on Reddit! The woman typed out a lengthy list structuring her approaching wedding plans, which would take place in Hawaii. She had a fussy and obsessively detailed set of instructions.

More Reddit Bridal Drama
An Insulting Theme
Most brides will insist that their guests follow their selected theme and general procedure. Most brides will not, however, insist that their guests should spend a crazy amount of money just to satisfy their desired dress code! A bride will usually have her bridesmaids’ outfits and their colors sorted out. While these special guests may disagree with their bride’s fashion sense, they generally undertake possibly dazzling choices to please their friend on her special day.

An Insulting Theme
Aesthetically Pleasing
The bride-to-be’s post started off completely harmlessly. It all began with a courteous greeting, which quickly flowed into a shocking revelation: “Who’s ready for Hawaii 2019?” Following this announcement, she proceeded by mentioning that although the event still had eighteen months to go, she insisted on delivering some essential instructions to her guests. Not surprisingly, this issue was related to the dress code. This finicky woman justified her over-top-requirements and their early delivery to ensure that her attendees could, “find and pick out something nice.” The Bridezilla also clarified that the particular clothing planning was arranged because she needed her guests to produce an “incredible visual effect” throughout the “synchronized dance” section of her reception.

Aesthetically Pleasing
Questionable Variety
As stories like these generally go, a demandingly expensive wardrobe is just the tip of this particular iceberg. Our next bridal epic is just starting to unfold! The expected backlash to her demands, however, came from the way she executed them. Her lengthy Facebook post detailed her desired dress code into five separate categories. The guests were divided as follows: females whose weight ranged from 100 to 160 pounds; men whose weight ranged from 100 to 200 pounds; women whose weight exceeded 160 pounds; men whose weight exceeded 200 pounds and finally, children. As if such strict clothing rules weren’t invasive enough, she was also discriminating against her guests regarding their body sizes! No one could have expected such tyranny when they confirmed their attendance!

Questionable Variety
Velvet, if you Please
This kind of fanatical dress code begs for further investigation. Females whose weight ranged between 100 to 160 pounds were expected to don orange suede pants or velvet green sweaters. Further, Louboutin heels were mandatory, which cost a steep $700 a pair! This lady made a point of emphasizing the importance of red heels, due to their incredible foot shaping effect. Let’s leave her footwear obsession there for now…You might not believe it, but the detailed list didn’t stop there. To finish things off, the attendees were expected to wrap scarves around their necks! Obviously, no run of the mill scarf would satisfy her. It had to be strictly Burberry-branded cashmere. It goes without saying that these accessories would greatly inflate the already lofty wardrobe costs!

Velvet If You Please
Purple or Die
As for the men, those whose weight ranged between 100 and 200 pounds were required to put a completely different outfit together. Despite their costumes being more affordable, they were just as weird! Get a load of this outfit: furry purple jackets, those helmets with beer can holders attached and plain white sneakers! Just to complete this bizarre appearance, the bride further requested that the men in this section bring glowsticks! This was all entering a whole new level of weird.

Purple Or Die
Paint it Black
Moving on, let’s describe what women who weighed over 160 pounds had gotten themselves into. Strangely, the women in this category just had to dress up in black. Yes, black at a wedding! They had to don black sweaters and pants, in a material that didn’t have to be fuzzy but could be of any design. Just to complete this grim look, the women were expected to arrive with black heels. You will have to decide what is more insulting, the fact that these women were being arranged according to their heavier weight, or that they had to be clad head to toe in black!

Paint It Black
Blending In
The craziness doesn’t stop there, as the men whose weight exceeded 200 pounds would have the most ridiculous dress code section in the store for them. The bride would have the kind of clothing instructions better suited to hunting than a wedding, outlining an almost entirely camouflage getup for the heavier males! Everything would have this completely inappropriate pattern, save for their black sneakers. How could she expect them to follow these orders?

Blending In
Rouge Rogue
The bride’s word was the law and there was nothing that her guests could do about it! Children would also be attending the wedding and they, of course, had their own dress code too. For the kids, a completely red outfit was necessary. The children weren’t just expected to wear red; they would also have to synchronize into the shape of a heart with a peculiar dance. It was made clear that their outfits had to pure red and no other shade.

Rouge Rogue
Dressed to the Nines
If you were under the impression that this bizarre costume assortment would be all that the unfortunate guests would be forced to wear, well, we’ve got news for you! The bride to be maintained that beyond the silly dress code, a properly formal one was needed too. Following their bizarre performances, the guests would change into more wedding appropriate clothing. Was this a wedding, or some kind of military operation?

Dressed To The Nines
The formal section of the dress code was free of the stringent requirements, but the bride still reinforced just how upscale this venue was. The guests would need to dress to impress for the more normal part of the wedding.
One Grand
It is only too easy to decide that this entire dress code ordeal was simply a joke, however, by reading the rest of her comment, you might be convinced otherwise. This woman deadly serious.

One Grand
This bride didn’t mince words when she outlined just how important it was that each individual conforms to her guidelines unless they wanted everyone to look like rubbish. She also did her homework when it came to the expected costs, which came to a minimum of one thousand dollars! Her 24k theme needed tribute.
Zero Tolerance
With such mindless expectations of her guests, we were quite surprised to learn that she had an inkling that her post might have come across as rather over the top. There aren’t many people who would be willing to spend so much on a one-night occasion. As if this made things any easier, she believed that an eighteen-month preparation period was consolation! Surely everyone could appease her wishes at this time. Somehow, we don’t think many people ended up attending her very special day.

Zero Tolerance
Widespread Weirdness
It definitely took some courage to break this bride’s privacy by sharing it with the Reddit community. This was the kind of post that was meant for her guests’ eyes only. Disregarding her wishes, the wild post went viral quickly as it was shared throughout the web.

Widespread Weirdness
This post would quickly get shared well over ten-thousand times! Beyond its massive spread was a large amount of commenting it received from Redditors. It was clear to them that her dress code was completely body shaming in nature, revealing the bride to be very narcissistic. The more astute Redditors, however, scrutinized the color codes she had specified.
Intimate Revelations
Her friends were entitled to express their opinions on the ghastly clothing arrangement the bride had dropped on them. One individual even decided to go through the effort of illustrating just how weird they would all look if her dream came true! What you’re about to see is quite unflattering. Let’s be honest here, this look is worth shaming. The color coding is just completely arbitrary and even infuriating considering the hefty price tags attached. Further, the venue was in Hawaii! Considering the island country’s hot weather, corduroy pants and velvet sweaters were a recipe for much sweating.

Intimate Revelations
The Bride Responds
Our Bridezilla quickly discovered that her private dress code post had gone viral. She then decided that reprimanding her friends was the best response. Of course, her fiery tirade was shared with Reddit too! She was completely livid, expressing her feelings of betrayal in detail. She could not believe that a trusted friend would break her trust to ridicule her in front of thousands of people! She promised that the snitch would be paid back in kind!

The Bride Responds
The Expensive Truth
The bride was prepared to go to extreme lengths to expose the snitch, going so far as to host a “polygraph party” in her home. She had apparently purchased an authentic polygraph test from Amazon at a pricey $99. She was assured that she would rat out the snitch with this scheme! She emphasized that any person who failed to attend would automatically be deemed as guilty! You did not want to get on this woman’s bad side.

The Necessary Equipment
So, what exactly did the bridal detective purchase? If you also need someone to tell you the truth, you might be interested in following up on her order! A cheaper and possibly ineffective polygraph test wouldn’t do, so she decided to buy the most advanced lie-detecting technology available. She needed answers, at any cost.

Ironically, polygraph tests are not considered infallible. Despite this, you cannot deny that a polygraph party is a great idea for some harmless entertainment. Whatever truths are revealed are guaranteed to make the evening unforgettable!
No Holding Back
If they did have concerns, she would have preferred it if they approached her. She had plenty of other activities in store for those who were unwilling to join in on the synchronized dance! These included joining the staff in clearing up tables following dinner or donating money to their honeymoon. Ultimately, any service would help.

No Holding Back
In her final post, the bride admitted that she didn’t really care if anyone didn’t share her enthusiasm for her wacky outfits.
Enough is Enough
Following this newly patronizing post, a few attendees had reached their limit. One individual went out of their way to write out a long criticism regarding their opinions on the matter. Not surprisingly, they turned down their wedding invitation when confronted with the ridiculous dress code.

Enough Is Enough
We’re not going to disagree with this person’s opinion, quite frankly. If you had been in the same position, you might have commented on something similar. The costly dress code and further charges attached were just too much. How a person could expect their supposedly treasured guests to become staff is unfathomable. You simply do not turn your guests into servants like this!
The Web Heats up
Understandably, plenty of individuals had many criticisms in the store. There were obviously very few praising comments attached. The initial post attracted an incredible level of discussion! A large percentage of the comments were made purely to emphasize just how crazy this tale was.

The Web Heats Up
Various individuals began pondering on whether such a wild tale was real, due to its unbelievable nature. We promise that this all really did happen. Skeptics aside, plenty of critics were enraged at the bride for her body-shaming antics and her attempts to bully the snitch into confessing.
Physical Descriptions
Redditors are infamous for having plenty of spare time to make the most out of sensational posts. One Redditor went so far as to demonstrate how the dress code would look like. This incredible illustration was provided just to prove their point. There really isn’t much more we can say about this, other than the fact that certain significant details are worth mentioning. A lot of people found the “Pepsi hat” hilarious. You can’t help laughing at the fact that she tried to segregate her guests based on their weight.

The bride was truly on the warpath, with so much more to express. She also set her targets on those who had ridiculed her. She became infuriated upon discovering that her post was making the rounds online, sparking an emotional tirade. For some reason, the bride maintained that she was justified in her decisions due to her position as a “certified spiritual healer”, along with her husband. Incredibly, she had so many people convinced, we included. If she was indeed a spiritual healer, you would have thought that she would practice a bit more kindness and understanding when dealing with this ordeal.

Fallen Angel
She went on to rationalize her color scheme choices throughout her lengthy tirade. You would have thought that she had a truly meaningful rationale attached to this bizarre wardrobe. Not so, as she revealed that the all-black and camouflaged choices were intended to symbolize Satan, who would then be kicked out! While some of the more religious folk might have sympathized with her reasoning, associating the heavier guests with the devil was completely dehumanizing. So, how did the public react to this demonic association?

Criticisms Abound
The bride seemed to just be fueling the fires into an eventual blazing inferno while trying to put them out. She simply couldn’t be satisfied, especially considering her segregation of her guests according to their weight. Unsurprisingly, she could justify this dividing up of guests. If you were worried that the next event wouldn’t be crazy, don’t be, as there were plenty of international witnesses begging to learn more. Considering the flood of online shaming revolving around the bride and her outlandish wedding plans, it was more than likely that it would all be called off, right? Well, let’s take a closer look.

Criticisms Abound
Inflammatory Comments
Many Redditors were already hysterical when they read the bride’s post about weight-based discrimination. Such divisions were very alienating, to begin with. When they learned about the whole devil exorcism metaphor which heavier guests were expected to participate in, however, these online users reached new levels of astonishment. While it was unclear as to whether this degrading procedure was intentionally hurtful, many took it to be so. This ditzy bride just couldn’t get anything right. Things didn’t end there, however, as new details would make many reconsider their opinion of her.

Paranormal Encounters
The bride in question believed that she could gain some support by describing how she had met her future husband at a “psychic desensitization chamber”. How does this detail enlighten anyone? For starters, we then knew that she wasn’t “the girl next door”. Further, she revealed that such an experience prompted her to include her culture on her special day. While we’d never want to deny anyone their traditions, perhaps they could have been expressed a bit better? Returning to the financial qualms, there is more than meets the eye here…

Covering the Costs
Beyond covering their already costly dress code requirements, the bride also expected her potential guests to fork out a minimum of a thousand dollars for their ordinary dresses and suits. Of course, our Bridezilla had the perfectly thought out justification at hand. Strangely enough, the opulent outfits were supposed to symbolize the prosperity which the crazy couple wished to come into in time. While bringing heartfelt meaning into a wedding’s design is common practice, these kinds of outlandish metaphors are far too demanding.

Oblivious
In truth, this entire ordeal reveals a severe lack of awareness. Such a shocking dedication to perfecting every little detail makes for worthy reading. While everyone is entitled to joy and love, they cannot do it at the expense of others. Money isn’t some magically infinite resource. Demanding that other people cough up unreasonable amounts of cash for someone’s wedding is just selfish. Beyond the limit of one-thousand dollars that she demanded from her friends, there were also the travel charges attached to visiting Hawaii.

Hesitation
With this sensational story has reached its conclusion, one may be wondering just how the wedding turned out, if at all. We as the invested readers can only wait and find out. Of course, we would never want their relationship to fall on hard times, but we also would like this odd couple to take the feelings and finances of their friends and families into consideration. Ultimately, this bride needs to take a good, hard look at herself and reconsider her actions. No one should ever be bullied into going out of their way, even for a wedding. If she keeps up this childish behavior, she can expect to get married in front of very few people. Maybe she will one day get her ideal wedding day!
