My entitled in-laws are furious with me, complaining that they don't want to dress up for my Renaissance-themed wedding,

0:06.3

claiming that I'm making everybody look like idiots all because I'm enforcing a dress code.

0:10.9

And at this point, I'm not sure if I'm the jerk for asking people to dress a certain way at my wedding because based on their reaction I'm starting to seriously doubt myself.

0:20.0

Here's what happened.

0:21.0

I'm a 29 year old female and I'm getting married to my 30 year old partner and we've planned a fantasy and renaissance theme wedding.

0:28.0

We are massive fandom nerds. We read books, we play video games, we love movies and comics, and we actually met at a

0:34.6

saying that they've heard other people, including some of mine

1:09.0

and my partner's family members, calling me a bridezilla,

1:12.2

saying that we are being unreasonable, that this is

1:14.9

ridiculous and that they don't want to go if I'm going to get all up in arms over

1:19.1

clothing. My soon-to-be mother-in-law and sister-in-law are especially angry.

1:23.7

I reached out to them after their names were mentioned and they said I am ruining what is
