“NTA She is not ‘reaching out to you’. She *summoned* you to *demand* you tell your attendants to match *her* outfit because SHE *decided* a month before the event that she will have an honored place in **your wedding**. She didn’t ASK. She didn’t VOLUNTEER anywhere along the way to help with anything. The MOH has several specific duties along the way and she expects to jump in NOW? She is, and has been, a bully, and an ableist. When her stunt failed, she badmouthed your actual MOH. She feels like she *deserves* it ‘beCauSe I’m fAmiLy!’ The MOH role is for the *Best Friend* of the Bride. Someone who ‘wants to have a bigger role in your life’ doesn’t get there by barging in like the SWAT Team and demanding it. They start by **NOT BEING A DICK**. They do not inform you what will take place at your wedding. Lacey wants a ‘LOOK AT MEEEEEE!’ moment. Something is happening without her, that is *not about her*, and She Needs In! Your Mama and Pete are enabling her behavior. Do they really think she should jump in, white dress everyone, and fire Aurora? Because she WANTS to? You were caught off guard by her over-the-top tantrum. She roasted your best friend, and screamed at you. You told her off and left to avoid further escalation. You were not making a blanket statement that ‘stepfamilies can’t be real families’. You were saying that her consistent bullshit behavior towards you (and others) doesn’t feel how family should treat each other. That it’s hard to feel like family when someone acts like you are obligated to include them no matter how nasty they act. I don’t like her, and I haven’t even met her. “
