You know the saying, Aweddingis the best excuse to go all-out to embarrass your relatives?
Okay, maybe thats not a saying, but it should be!
Weddings can magically transform perfectly normal families intoreality TVstars.
Everyone has an opinion, nobody holds back, and someone always ends up crying in the corner.
But when tradition clashes with modern love stories, things can get heated really fast.
Just ask our Redditorshe learned this the hard way.
Sounds dreamy, right?
Not if you ask her very religious and conservative parents.
When the OP shared the happy news with her folks, her mom dropped a double dose of judgment.
Sure, because a wedding is all about theparents, right, mom?
Actually, her exact words were used goods.
Yup, this mom called her own daughter used goods.
Apparently, this lady is immune to decency.
Because, you know, solidarity… or something.
The color of your wedding dress has nothing to do with your past decisions.
Its a personal choice, and the idea that it symbolizes purity is pretty old-fashioned.
Before that, brides wore whatever color they fancied, often something practical they could re-wear.
Thats a later addition, and honestly, its way past its expiration date.
Besides, in many cultures,brideswear red instead of white.
For example, in India and China, red symbolizes prosperity, luck, and happiness.
But sometimes even that is not enough.
But when they start projecting those ideals onto their kids, it can create a lot of unnecessary conflict.
Sure, family is important, but unconditional love and support are what make those ties meaningful.
Toxic guilt trips and judgment?
So, rock that white gown with pride, girl!
