• #1 - The Mother-In-Law

Mother-in-laws are the most valuable foreshadows you may ever get. They are the wombs from which your women sprang forth and, therefore, the mother of all forecasts. Troublesome mother-in-laws are wedding magnets. There is nothing more neurotically flammable to a mother-in-law than her daughter’s magical day - a day she’s been dreaming of since before her daughter sprang forth. For this reason, (if she is crazy or boundary-less whatsoever) she will attack your lawful union with silver-lettered invitations and labeled m&m’s.

Of course, many mothers are insane and for this we forgive our respective partner. However, if your mother-in-law becomes an overwhelmingly dominant presence in your household (entering unannounced, preening the bouquets, berating the bridesmaids) and your fiance does nothing to halt this hellish woman from trampling the head of your table (emphasis on your), there’s a pretty big problem.

Consider this before striding up that aisle- while you’re striding up there, your mother-in-law may run up and primp your bride’s hair, tell you to smile for the camera, scoff at the wrinkle in your suit and scream for the priest to speak louder. For a start.
