  • 03
    Attended a wedding yesterday. There were a few reasons to shame this wedding, but the most egregious behavior was the Groom's Mother.
  • 04
    The wedding was "western themed", and extremely casual. The groom's mother and another guest wore the same green dress. The guest was
  • 05
    the bride's brother's date. She was not involved in the wedding apart from as a date. Apparently, that green dress is available at Boot Barn right now.
  • 06
    Groom's Mother (GM) was mad and cornered the guest about it: GM: You're wearing the same dress as me. You need to change.
  • 07
    Guest: I don't have anything to change into. We just flew in. GM: Well, then you need to leave. Now.
  • 08
    Guest: Are you serious? GM: Yes, I'm serious. I'm more important than you. I'm the mother of the groom.
  • 09
    Other brother of the bride: Well, we're the bride's family, and without the bride, you won't have a wedding at all. So she's staying.

    Luckily, nothing else came of it (because there was other BS going on), but the brother's date was hurt that the mother was such a about it.

    "instructed" me: "The bond between a mother and son is far, far more important than between a husband and wife." I laughed in her face and just walked away. I was free.
