My mother-in-law refused to leave my wedding after I asked her to change her perfume – it was ruining my day

A MAN has revealed that he asked his mother-in-law to leave his wedding because he couldn't stand her perfume.

We all want our big day to be perfect - but he revealed her perfume completely ruined the day.

Taking to Reddit, he asked: "AITA for asking my mother-in-law to leave our wedding because her perfume was bothering me?"

He revealed he was marrying the love of his life and that he and his mother-in-law had no prior problems leading up to the big day.

He said: " I've usually gotten on pretty well with my new in-laws.

"Usually, my mother-in-law doesn't wear perfume or at least not any that I've been able to notice. My wife had her mother be her matron of honour so she was standing with us upfront.

"It was a small area and with her right next to my wife, I was able to smell her perfume.

"Shortly after the ceremony started I started to get watery eyes and sniffles. Our ceremony was supposed to only last 20 minutes max so I thought I would just push through unless it got worse."

He revealed the symptoms only got worse after the ceremony after his new mother-in-law hugged him and suffered with an itchy throat and a headache as well.

While he took medication, he said it did nothing to ease the symptoms and he was left feeling 'out of it'.

The groom was gutted as he couldn't take family photos with his mother-in-law as the scent was causing so many problems.

His wife asked her mum to wash off the perfume but she revealed she had sprayed it all over her clothes.

He then suggested she leave and buy some new clothes that he would pay for but she refused.

"I asked my mother-in-law to either please to do that or to leave and we'd visit later with cake because it was getting to the point that I would have to leave," he continued.
