Mother of the bride tries to switch out $100+ cake for a cheap sheet cake because she wasn't allowed to help plan, gets caught redhanded: 'Honestly, the bride's poise at the whole thing was impressive'

Weddings can be an epic time of celebrating love with all of your close friends and family. It doesn't even matter how high your planning budget is—it can be completely DIY or nepo-baby status, as long as the vibes are good and everyone knows that the day is about the happy couple and not themselves, then it's a guaranteed good time. Unfortunately, some people forget that second part, the one about the wedding being about the bride and groom and not the guest… Often times that stubborn entitled guest is a family member, sometimes even one of the in-laws. In fact, monster-in-laws have been an issue since the idea of marriage and has been immortalized in countless Hollywood production for decades.

In this case, you can tell the bride is used to the selfish shenanigans of her mother. The Redditor was a random guest, a very distant cousin, who only got invited because her aunt that she was living with was close with the groom. So she watched the event from a mostly unbiased position, and boy did she get a show! Turns out the bride's mom had never been stood up to before, so when the couple told her they did not want her to be part of the wedding planning, she came to the even ready to start fires…

After throwing a fit in private and then in public (perhaps even memorialized in photographs forever), the mother disappeared. A groomsman minding his own business who popped out for a quick smoke break noticed the MOB looking extra shady. Why did she look shady? Because she had the expensive two-tiered wedding cake on a cart and was trying to rush it outside to her car.

Luckily the groomsman stopped her and got the bride and groom. Apparently she was enraged that she couldn't help with the wedding planning so she was trying to secretly switch out the expensive cake for a cheap sheet cake… And she thought nobody would notice?? She spent the rest of the wedding sulking in her car. Perhaps defeat-eating her own sheet cake too? One can only hope.
