In what can only be described as a series of wedding day nightmares, a bride named Stasia took to TikTok to share her unbelievable experience with her mother-in-law. The incidents, which unfolded over the course of her wedding, have left people in shock and have gone viral, highlighting the lengths to which some will go to make their presence felt, even on another’s big day.
Stasia’s troubles began during what should have been one of the most magical moments of her wedding. “Did your mother-in-law interrupt your first dance or ruin your wedding? Because mine did,” Stasia recounted on her TikTok account @stasiasvcks, still visibly upset by the memories.
As Stasia and her new husband embarked on their first dance, the atmosphere was enchanting — an intimate moment on an empty dance floor. However, the bliss was short-lived. Stasia recalled, “Two minutes into dancing, my husband and I are twirling around, enjoying ourselves. There’s nobody else on the dance floor.” Just as they leaned in for a kiss, a tap on Stasia’s shoulder shattered the romantic ambiance.
Her mother-in-law, with an unsettling grin, interrupted the dance, beckoning for her son’s return. Stasia and her husband attempted to gracefully evade the intrusion, twirling away and leaving the mother-in-law to a self-inflicted “walk of shame” back to her table. It was later revealed that Stasia’s father had warned the groom’s mother against such disruptions, a caution she blatantly ignored.

This disruption, however, was not an isolated incident. Stasia recounted how, before the wedding, her mother-in-law protested vehemently when the couple decided to stay in a hotel instead of her house. The drama continued post-wedding when the newlyweds opted for privacy instead of immediately visiting the mother-in-law’s home.
This series of events led Stasia and her husband to sever ties with his mother.
Stasia explained, “We wanted to stay in bed and do adult things that married couples do.” But the trials didn’t end there. Stasia, who eloped and was five weeks pregnant during her wedding, endured nearly a year of meddling until her husband took a stand.
Even the wedding ceremony was not spared from the MIL’s intrusive actions. Stasia shared video evidence from her big day, revealing the shocking moment when her mother-in-law abruptly stood up and handed the groom a tissue, disrupting his heartfelt expression of love.
Stasia, clearly displeased, commented, “This may not look like much; however, karma, he was mid-sentence professing his love for me. He is a grown man and did not need mummy to hand him a tissue.”
The unexpected interruption caused a ripple of laughter among the witnesses, turning a solemn moment into an unintentional comedic interlude. Stasia’s narration emphasized the situation’s awkwardness, dubbing the mother-in-law’s actions as “super cringe.”
Yet, the most egregious of the mother-in-law’s actions was her announcement of Stasia’s pregnancy during the wedding. Without consent, she stormed into the bridal suite, declaring to all present that Stasia was carrying her grandchild.
Her refusal to leave the suite until confronted by Stasia’s father was a stark violation of privacy. Taking it a step further, she grabbed the microphone to publicly announce the pregnancy and shared unfounded plans about the couple’s future, including moving from Los Angeles to Chicago and living on her street.
This series of events led Stasia and her husband to sever ties with his mother. The culmination of her actions not only caused distress on their wedding day but also strained their relationship to the breaking point. Per Stasia, her MIL was no longer allowed at their house.
In another video, Stasia shed light on a disturbing episode that unfolded just four days after she welcomed her daughter. The video showcased screenshots of messages sent by her mother-in-law to her husband, exploiting the joyous occasion of her granddaughter’s birth to launch a scathing critique of Stasia.
In the video, Stasia expressed her exasperation, disclosing, “This lady made my entire pregnancy about her. This all stems from referring to me basically as an incubator and calling my daughter ‘her baby’ that I was carrying. This lady thinks that she’s my daughter’s mom — it’s crazy.”
The messages, as shared by Stasia, portrayed a level of intrusion that went beyond the bounds of normalcy. Stasia recounted how her mother-in-law would impose herself on her household, despite the logistical challenge of flying to their location. This behavior, which Stasia labeled as extremely selfish, echoed the disruptive pattern witnessed during her wedding.
Stasia’s frustration and disbelief were palpable as she continued, “I can give more context, more stories, but these are some beautiful messages she sent her son because we just can’t have anything nice, right? Like everything has to be ruined.”
In an additional revelation, Stasia disclosed that her mother-in-law chose not to communicate with her during the last ten weeks of her pregnancy. Despite this apparent silence, Stasia clarified that she had never been disrespectful to her mother-in-law face-to-face or over the phone, except for her candid expressions on TikTok.
Stasia’s ordeal gained significant traction online, with many users resonating with her story and feeling compelled to share their own “monster-in-law” experiences in the comments.
“My MIL tried to kiss my husband on the lips when he was drunk 😐,” said one user. “Mine faced the audience after she was escorted up the aisle and told everyone it was the worst day of her life 💀,” chimed in another. “My MIL got mad at us because we didn’t throw her a birthday party at our wedding reception. We got married 12/5 and her birthday is 12/16,” echoed a third commenter.
“Mine told my husband ‘I’ll always be your mom, she may not always be your wife – prioritize me.’ No joke,” expressed another user. “My MIL told me on my wedding day that it was a beautiful wedding for my [husband’s] first marriage but don’t expect it to be his last 😳,” noted another shocked netizen.
More people rallied in support of Stasia, with one person stating, “Huge red flag. Husbands need to set boundaries.” A second person quipped, “I’m with you sis. She was dead wrong.” Meanwhile, another stunned user wrote, “I cannot believe she did that the absolute audacity [sic].”
