Bride humiliates MIL at SIL’s party over wedding dress tradition

A bride-to-be from an upper-class family was criticized by her future mother-in-law for not adhering to the tradition of wearing a white wedding dress. Despite the bride and her fiancé agreeing on a non-traditional wedding, the MIL was relentless in her pursuit of tradition. The situation came to a head at the SIL’s birthday party when the MIL started publicly criticizing the bride’s decision. The bride, who had received a generous gift of 3K from her future in-laws, had enough and publicly gave the money back to her MIL, stating that she no longer needed to listen to her opinions since she was not contributing to the wedding. The move caused a scene and led to a family fight. While the bride’s fiancé understood her frustration, he thought she could have handled the situation better. What do you think?
