A woman has shared how she got the ultimate revenge on her in-laws after they showed up to her wedding in white gowns.
The bride took to Reddit and explained that her mother-in-law and three sisters-in-law think of her as the ‘devil incarnate’ as she doesn’t share their religion.
“I moved in with her son and had a baby without getting married and she truly believed I was the devil incarnate sent to draw her baby boy into the depths of hell,” she wrote.
The woman admitted that she didn’t care about getting married as she thought it was just a waste of money.
“But it was important to my husband, so I agreed, on the condition that it wasn’t a church wedding,” she continued.
She also said that she didn’t like the idea of a wedding dress but she had promised her mother and brother that they would do this together.
“So, my mum, mother-in-law, sisters-in-law, brother and his wife all traipsed along with me to marvel at the sight of me in a dress. The in-laws behaved and I found a dress that I didn’t hate as much as the others. I paid for it and we left.”
But the next day, she received a call from the bridal shop informing her that her in-laws ordered themselves the exact same dress as hers.
When she told her husband-to-be about what his family did, he didn’t believe they would do such a thing.
So she just returned to the shop and ordered a different dress. And to make sure that her in-laws won’t be able to steal the spotlight, she thought of a brilliant plan.
“This one was dark purple with black trim. Then I had the idea – I don’t have a lot of female friends but all my male friends have wives who had wedding dresses,” she went on.
“Sometimes they say they feel sad that they spent all that money on a dress that they’ll never wear again.
“I talked to my husband and he agreed, so the invitations went out and every person who had ever worn a wedding dress was invited to wear it to our wedding.”
Her in-laws received different invitations that asked them not to wear white.
And when the big day arrived, her in-laws entered in their matching white dresses but they were left disappointed as they were ‘completely absorbed by the rest of the crowd.’
“All four of them turned up in their beautiful white dresses with their beautiful make up and hair – they didn’t stand out,” she continued.
“They looked exactly like everyone else, except for my mum and brother’s wife, who wore purple like me.
“They weren’t going to ruin my day by upstaging me. My husband, who up to that point really didn’t think they would do something so vile, turned to stone that day.”
After the ceremony, her mother-in-law pulled her husband aside for a quick chat but he immediately shut her down.
“I came face-to-face with my mother-in-law at the door. She was incandescent with rage,” she added.
“She went to speak, but my husband stepped forward. and he shushed her right in front of everyone! It was glorious.”
