I can understand that not every kid has a perfect relationship with their mother. Whether it be the child’s fault or the parents, things aren’t always smooth in any kind of relationship. However, parents are supposed to be there for their child not try to upstage them. Especially if it is their wedding day. This may seem like a no brainer but so many parents actually do this.
I have no idea what their reasoning is. Perhaps they want to live through their child or that they are really selfish and only care about themselves. That at least is true for this woman. You see this woman wore white on her daughter’s wedding day. I mean why would anyone do that? And top it off it is your own daughter!
Thankfully the maid of honor stepped in before things got too out of hand.

Woah. NTA.
MIL is a grown woman who cried because she was asked to change out of a white dress at her daughter’s wedding, and then went home early just to be petty.
SIL was right to have you take care of her, good job! –thescooobygang
You are the best SIL ever. You saved the bride from having a miserable wedding and reception with wedding photos of her mother competing with her in a white dress.

Nicely put
NTA- some people just have to be the center of attention no matter what the occasion is but your own daughters wedding, now that just takes the cake. Surprised her husband let her leave the house dressed in white to his own daughters wedding. OP you did the right thing its just to bad you weren’t a little petty and picked out some really ugly dresses for her to choose from. SIL lucky you had her back
Definitely NTA. –20MLSE20
