Mom Throws Extravagant Birthday Party One Week Before Son’s Wedding, Guests Compare the Two Events and Render Son ‘Cheap’

Birthdays and weddings are supposed to be joyful occasions to celebrate. An appreciation of life and all that it has to offer, a celebration of our past successes and our goals for the future. However, how would you respond if your loved ones decided to compare the two events, painting one as extravagant and the other as inexpensive? Would you take what was said at face value and run with it, or would you end the conversation before it even got started?

The story below is an account of a confused mother. The original poster (OP) had just celebrated her fiftieth birthday. OP had been anticipating turning 50 since she was a young child, and she had made a vow to her closest friends and family that she would throw a spectacular celebration for them on that momentous occasion. Therefore, when the big day finally arrived, no money was spared. But when her son tied the knot just one week later, many had a lot to say because they felt it wasn't up to her extravagant celebration's level.

So, if you're curious about what was said about OP's son's wedding and how she handled the hurtful remarks made about her son, check out the story below! After you're done reading, don't forget to check out the story of the man who turns down his biological siblings' attempt at reconciliation after three decades of no communication!
