Her Mom Has A Mild Strawberry Allergy And Is Upset She’s Putting Them On Her Wedding Cake
Next year, this young woman will be getting married, and she knows exactly what she wants for her wedding cake.
She absolutely loves strawberries, and so she wants to have them on her wedding cake.
She’s actually planning on having a wedding cake with four tiers, and the bottom two tiers will be completely different flavors, while the top two tiers will be lemon and strawberry.
Now, her mom has a mild strawberry allergy. What this means is that if her mom happens to eat a piece of the fruit, she ends up with a mild rash and a headache.
Her mom is able to eat food that has come into contact with strawberries without having any kind of reaction.
When her mom found out about her plan to have strawberries on her wedding cake, she completely lost it.
Since then, her mom has been making plenty of passive-aggressive remarks about how she should put on her wedding RSVPs a section for guests to write down what allergies they have.
Her mom has also said to her that she would never dream of serving something to a guest that they would not be able to eat.
“I explained to her that she is more than free to eat the other two cakes, they will be entirely strawberry-free, aren’t even touching the top cake, and more importantly, my mother has diabetes and won’t be eating more than a small slice, to begin with,” she said.

“My fiancé agrees she’s being selfish…I was telling my dad about this issue, and she walked in and added, “This is my only daughter’s one and only wedding, I want to be able to eat every part of the cake.”
“Haven’t been able to close my mouth since from the pure shock. I mean. It’s MY only wedding. And she sees nothing wrong with saying something so insanely out of pocket?”
Her dad is siding with her mom, which has left her wondering if she is taking the strawberry problem too seriously.
She can skip out on them for one day of her life, but she does not want to do this. On the other hand, the strawberries have created so much drama in her family that she just wants it to go away.
She says her mom always gets anything she wants, and her dad goes along with her mom, but she thought her wedding could be the exception to this family rule.
Do you think she should ditch the strawberries?
