What was meant to be an innocent gender reveal party turned into a messy event at the expense of us, the guests. Luckily, my future mother-in-law was a sensible woman who anticipated the drama. I was shocked and quite angry when I realized the truth about why there was a last-minute dress code.

Hi everyone, my name is Tammy, 30, and I am engaged to Dean, 32. My tale is about a huge betrayal from my fiancé’s family’s side that led me to turn to revenge.

My future brother-in-law, Sam, decided to throw a gender reveal party for his first child. Dean and I were invited. The invite said every guest must bring gifts for the parents, which was strange, but we brushed it off. A week before the event, we were told to wear all white. I was annoyed but bought a white jumpsuit.

At the party, Sam revealed the baby’s gender by spraying everyone with pink and blue paint. It was a prank to ruin our outfits for his and Berta’s amusement. My future mother-in-law knew about the plan and got gift cards for the guests to compensate for the ruined clothes, teaching Sam and Berta a lesson.
