A groom was left horrified after his family members decided to play a cruel prank on his wife on their wedding day. He kicked out many of his female family members after they arrived in white dresses because they just wanted to test the woman he wanted to tie the knot with. “I have a large family. Mostly aunts and female cousins aside from mum, stepmum, stepsister, and grandmother,” he wrote on Reddit.
“I don’t know how to say this but all those women I mentioned above are into teasing and joking.” “They’ve formed a unit (which I admit is kind of toxic) and they’d tease and roast every new woman that enters the family by marriage by setting up ‘tests’ to see if they deserve to be part of the family. Or roast their looks and styles to the point of breaking confidence and self-esteem down,” he continued.
“Then after a few months of teasing, they’d announce that they’ve finally welcomed them into the family. The newest member would join in on the teasing too which is crazy as my dad says.” However, the same thing happened to his wife.“When I first introduced my then-girlfriend now wife, I made it clear that I didn’t want any of the women in the unit to come at her or harass her not even with a single word,” he said.
“They went behind my back and roasted her looks and job and I discovered they’ve been doing it on Facebook. I had them apologise one by one after they gave the ‘we’re just testing the water to see if she’s capable to be part of the family’ excuse. “They didn’t want to apologise but once I said I wouldn’t invite any of the unit unless they apologise, including my mum, everyone immediately apologised and brought gifts for my wife.
First of them was my stepmum and my sister-in-law.” He then learned that “there was a talk about the women in the family wanting to pull a prank on my wife by wearing white and called it the ‘ultimate test’ to see how my wife react.”“My brother warned me so I announced that if any one of them showed up in white I’d have them kicked out including mum. They said this wasn’t true and they’d never do such a thing.
“However, they arrived at my wedding one by one wearing white dresses, and each and every one of them was told to leave after they tried to make excuses by making a scene or involving the men.” The unit’s senior women, mum and aunts, also showed up in white but refused to leave. I threatened to take harsher action, and Mum was yelling at me to step aside, but I wouldn’t let her in.”
“I had her leave while the men in the family were stunned; dad was on my side and was very supportive.” “I felt terrible because my wedding was being disrupted by them making a scene,” he continued. “My wife was devastated, but the women in the family were enraged.” My cousin later blasted me on social media for excluding all the women from the wedding because my wife was so insecure she couldn’t handle the presence of another woman at her wedding.
“I had an argument with them, and mum chastised me, saying it was a prank, but I said they were going too far.” Mum said I went too far by kicking them out because they were trying to see if my wife was one of those ‘bridezillas’ and were going to change as soon as the prank was over, but I ruined my own and the entire wedding by reacting so aggressively.
“I stopped talking when she told me I needed to bring my wife and apologize.” I haven’t seen them in two weeks, and they’ve kept me out of everything.” What are your thoughts on the matter? Tell us in the comments, and SHARE this story with your friends and family!
