This newlywed isn't convinced that their mom actually had a good excuse for missing their wedding. Up next, read about the most cringe-worthy college admissions essays sent in by hopeful teens, like one person who “ wrote his [essay] about Paul Blart Mall Cop .”

This woman is wondering how much say her family should get as she's picking out the wedding dress of her dreams. Turns out that her mom really dislikes her choice of dress! For many brides, going dress shopping with the female relatives in their life can be a cherished memory. Often, brides will gather their friends, their mom , and maybe bring along Grandma or a few aunts too, as the bride goes to find her dream dress. Every bride has a different vision for what she wants to wear, with some pi…

This bride caused a butterfly effect in her parent's lives after they missed their only daughter's wedding day. Next, read about some other dramatic wedding moments, like one person who admitted that “ The tornado at the outdoor reception was kinda bad .”

It's great to have things that you enjoy and allow you to look forward to the days to come. The problem is that a lot of us (all of us?) are wired to think that “A little bit is good, more must be better.” So when something makes us happy, we seek out more and more of that thing until our entire house is chock full of Star Wars memorabilia.

"She comes from generational wealth and bragged about her 10K+ wedding dress..."

This bride took to social media to address something that happened at her wedding, but she then quickly deleted the post . That's because she never addressed her family members about the issue in person! Awkward… What did she think was going to happen? Did she think they'd read the post, scoff at it, and then go on their way? Hardly, as you can read about in u/throwrathefinances's story below. As this woman shares, she and her daughter were a big part of her cousin Dana's wedding ceremony. Her…

Fighting fire with fire.

It's your special day, and you're hoping that everything will go as smoothly as possible. You and your soon-to-be spouse are thrilled as your guests enter the venue and watch you take your marital vows to each other. Then it's time for dinner and dancing late into the night as you celebrate your lifetime of marriage . Well, that's how every couple hopes their wedding day will go, but of course, there are bound to be a few mishaps here and there. Some people hire photographers who don't really k…

This dude really decided to make an action thriller out of his life. Not only did he lean into the jealous husband trope, but he even went so far as to hire a private investigator to spy on his wife after he began to suspect that she had been seeing her high school ex-boyfriend on the side. These suspicions began when his kids had revealed that their mother had frequently dropped the kids off at her parents for a few hours at a time on days when she wasn't working. Now, for the sake of transpar…

If he tries to dump your dog, you better dump him back! As Liz Lemon would say, “That's a dealbreaker, ladies!” This wife was out of town with her 7-year-old daughter while her husband stayed at home to take care of their 13-year-old dog, Ellie. Ellie was old and slow; in other words, she wasn't the kind of dog to just run away. This is why the wife became immediately suspicious when her husband called them to report that Ellie had run off. When she and her daughter returned home, the wife beca…

This was not exactly the wedding of anyone's dreams. Let's start with the bride and groom of this event, who had to switch wedding planners about ten days prior to the ceremony. Just when it seemed like all the stress and chaos was under control, the food and beverage caterer completely bailed on the day of the wedding, taking the money and running without any ability to contact her. To make matters more upsetting, this was a Wish Upon a Wedding event (keep scrolling below for further details).…

This newly-married couple is going to be in a world of debt after throwing a lavish wedding that didn't exactly pay off. Weddings these days are a bit different than they were 50 years ago. Besides the obvious changes in decorum and decoration, there's a whole new tradition around gift-giving . Many couples choose to live together before marriage these days, which can be quite beneficial. You can learn if you are compatible with someone before legally declaring it forever. However, if you live…

More often than not, wedding planning results in more conflict than joyous anticipation. What should be exciting and celebratory ends up quickly falling to madness as family members impose unnecessary demands and usurp the event as if it is their own. Sure, perhaps your parents are contributing financially to some of the wedding festivities, but that does not give anyone the right to make decisions behind your back. Here, we have a bride whose mother fully went against her wishes and ordered a…

Future in-laws seeking advice!

Here is yet another tale of an entitled parent making their kid's wedding festivities entirely about them. However, for once, the bride and groom managed to win out in the end. Let's start with a little backstory. The Redditor had a tumultuous relationship with her brother and his wife that resulted in a mutual understanding that they would not be attending the Redditor's upcoming nuptials… that is, until their entitled Karen Mommy decided to intervene. On top of inviting the brother and his wi…

It might've been anxiety-inducing, but hey—$500 is $500!
