Momzilla

A momzilla is the wedding's second storm system: a mother — usually of the groom, tradition insists — who treats the ceremony as her production: guest lists rewritten, dresses in bridal white, surprise speeches, keys copied. Family-dynamics writers call it a boundary problem with catering. The filed accounts here are in-law war chronicles, and the juries read them with forensic pleasure, because unlike ghosts, a momzilla leaves witnesses at every table and usually a videographer.
