In a bizarre turn of events, a groom recently found himself questioning whether he was in the wrong after his female relatives decided to wear white dresses to his wedding to “test” his new wife. The couple had been excitedly preparing for their big day, but the groom’s family had a different agenda in mind.
The groom, a 33-year-old man, took to Reddit to share the strange customs of his family, where women are known to “test” new partners before fully accepting them into the fold. According to him, this group would often ridicule and belittle new additions for months before finally granting them acceptance. When rumors surfaced about the women planning to wear white as a prank to gauge his wife’s reaction, the groom immediately put his foot down, warning them they would be removed from the wedding if they followed through.
However, when the wedding day arrived, the women showed up in white dresses as planned. True to his word, the groom asked them to leave, leading to a dramatic scene that left his bride heartbroken and the women infuriated. One cousin even took to social media to accuse the groom of excluding the women because his bride was “insecure.”
While some might argue there’s a fine line between playful teasing and outright bullying, this situation crossed that line. The groom’s mother claimed it was all meant to see if his bride was a “bridezilla,” supposedly as a means of protecting him. The family justified their actions by saying they were merely trying to ensure that the women who marry into the family are worthy.
The overwhelming consensus on Reddit? The groom’s family is toxic. It raises an important question: does his new wife even want to be part of this family dynamic?
