‘I cannot be in a long sleeve floor-length gown in the heat for 8 hours’: Mother-to-be stands up to an entitled bridezilla, refusing to abide by absurd dress code demands in order to protect her pregnancy

Some people have dreamed about their wedding day since they were a little kid. Childhood dreams of Cinderella dresses, clinking champagne flutes, and a black-tie affair can sail through a kid's mind without a second thought, but in the deep south, an outdoor, summertime, black-tie event is a little more complicated to plan than an enchanting Disney-style ball. Guests could lose more than a glass slipper in those hot n' sweaty conditions.

With 100 degree weather and 100% humidity, most guests would rather take shelter in the AC than traipse around a hot corn field in a floor-length gown with long sleeves alongside their tuxedo-ed date…That goes double a woman who's 8 months pregnant. 

Most people don't have the gaul to stand up to a bridezilla, but in this story, u/throwawaythechanges, the sister-in-law of the bride-to-be was about to be a new mother. With her belly swollen and contractions on the horizon, this pregnant mom stood up for herself (and her health) in the midst of a red-faced, furious bride. 

After this, read on about another protective parent that goes into mom-mode when there's drama at the family cookout.
