Mother of the groom gave a speech that did not once mention the wedding the bride or their future together. It was just an ode to her son.
She used the opportunity to hold a show & tell of all the favourite crafts he had made since he was a little kid. She brought them with her to the venue in a huge bag and held them up for everyone to see
Then at the end of the speech she pulled out his high school football jacket and insisted he take off his suit jacket and try it on.
Same woman also threw a fit when some people from my family were seated at a table slightly closer than her to the head table. We’re very close with the brides side of the family but she insisted that because we’re not blood relatives we needed to sit in the far corner of the room.
Her whole attitude at her sons wedding was tacky and really put off a lot of people.
