MY MIL KICKED MY PARENTS OUT OF MY WEDDING BECAUSE THEY “DIDN’T PAY FOR IT”
My wedding day. The day I had dreamed of forever. I was standing next to Edward, holding his hand, feeling nothing but happiness.
And then my MIL stood up.
She clinked her glass, flashing this fake, sweet smile. The room went quiet.
“I just want to say something,” she said, dragging it out like she was about to make some touching speech. Then she turned to my parents.
“It’s a shame when people think they can just show up to a wedding they didn’t pay a dime for.”
I swear, you could hear a pin drop. My dad’s hand tightened on the table. My mom’s face went pale.
Edward gripped my hand. “Mom, stop.”
But nope, she kept going. “Since our side paid for this wedding and they didn’t, I think it’s only fair that they leave.”
She was actually kicking out my parents. At my wedding.
I felt frozen. My heart was pounding.
And then my dad did something I never expected.
He smiled.
“Alright,” he said, standing up and adjusting his suit. “We’ll go. But before we do, just one last thing.”
MIL leaned back in her chair like a queen granting a final mercy. “Oh, by all means.”
She had no idea what was coming.
My dad lifted his glass, looked Edward and me right in the eye, slowly reached into his pocket and pulled something out. 😳⬇️Story continues in the comments
