Weddings are stressful enough before even factoring in the feelings of everyone else involved.

The months of planning and getting everything absolutely perfect down to the last detail is overwhelming in and of itself (don't get us wrong, totally worth the trouble).

But every wedding also has its drama, though usually it can be bandaided with a quick chat or a couple of rounds of bubbly.

There are, however, conflicts that just won't blow over...like if someone you love dearly doesn't approved of the union in the first place.

TikTokers Cyn and Tessa (@cynandtessa) experienced exactly this when Tessa's father refused to attend their same-sex wedding.

In a now-viral video posted by the couple, the TikTok explains in its text overlay:

"My father-in-law is very religious, and he did not attend our wedding."

The video shows wedding day footage of the brides walking hand in hand.

It continued:

"My wife was devastated, but she tried not to show it."

But when it came time for the traditional father-daughter dance, Tessa can be seen dancing with a man, obviously not her father.

The TikTokers then revealed:

"In lieu of the father-daughter dance, her brothers stepped in for sibling dance."
"This is her older brother Guillermo."

As the video shows another man dancing with the bride, the text read:

"Here comes little bro and my wife's best friend, Diego...it was beautiful and meant a lot to us."

The last clip shows a photo of the bride with her two brothers.

"When my father-in-law decided not to attend our wedding, our siblings stepped up."

It's such a shame that Tessa's father couldn't be there to support her on the happiest day of her life, but we're so happy she has a beautiful support system in her brothers and new wife.

Congrats to the happy couple!

Megyn Kelly Tells 'Homicidal Maniac' Lindsey Graham To 'STFU' About Iran War In Brutal Rant

Conservative pundit Megyn Kelly criticized South Carolina Republican Senator Lindsey Graham on Tuesday, calling him a "homicidal maniac" and demanding he "shut the f**k up" following his calls for intervention in Cuba and for President Donald Trump to join Israel in attacking the Iran-backed militant group Hezbollah in Lebanon.

In particular, Graham urged Middle Eastern partners to do more to support the U.S. war effort, telling countries such as Saudi Arabia to “up your game.” He also criticized Spain after its leadership strongly opposed the attacks on Iran. Graham said Spain had “lost your way,” and called on the U.S. to cut ties with the country and withdraw its military air base from Spanish territory.

Lindsey Graham Dragged After His Latest Claim About Iran Directly Contradicts Trump's From Last Summer—And Oops

South Carolina Republican Senator Lindsey Graham was called out after he predicted on Fox News that the U.S. is "gonna obliterate" Iran's nuclear program by the time the recently-initiated war with the country is over, prompting critics to point out that he directly contradicted President Donald Trump's own claim from last summer.

Graham, discussing the war that began after the U.S., with the joint coordination of Israel, launched strikes against Iran on February 28, claimed Trump is “the right guy at the right time” because of Tehran’s supposed nuclear program.
