Mom asked if she could wear custom-made tux to daughter’s wedding—one detail on the outfit left the bride emotional
Family members might try to do special things for a couple when they get married. However, when a bride agreed to let her mom wear a pant suit for the wedding, she hadn't thought it was anything more than a simple outfit request. The mom ended up nailing the pantsuit. But there was a special detail in the woman's coat lining that she revealed to her daughter later on. It made the daughter, Samantha Marks Tasman, really emotional. So Samantha, who goes by @samn8r on TikTok, shared the moment with the platform through a post. The post received over 422,500 views.
"My mom asked me if she could wear a custom tux for my wedding and I said, 'Sure, why not?' Best decision ever," Samantha wrote as a caption to one of the photos with her family. The mom had planned a surprise for the daughter and had lined her tux with photos of Samantha and of the mom and daughter together. The bride looked at the lining, carrying all the photos with a big smile on her face. In another picture in the photo series on TikTok, two people were carrying the mom as she showed off the photos on her tux to the wedding party. At the same time, the woman's dad was carrying a matching pocket square to go with the coat. "Mom's pant suit was a hit," Samantha revealed.
"Never seen someone rock a paint suit like Sabrina," the caption to the post read. Samantha told Newsweek that her mom had worn pant suits to all the other events before her wedding as well. When she agreed to let her mom wear a pant suit to her wedding, both her parents wore matching clothes as they walked her down the aisle. "She is tall and has long legs, so I have always thought that pantsuits look great on her." However, Samantha had no idea that there was more to the story. The surprise was revealed after the mom had zipped the bride into her wedding dress.
"I had no idea she had the lining customized with photos of me and us. When she zipped me into my dress, she surprised me with that aspect of her tux and it was amazing. I cried. It was so beautiful seeing how much she cared for me and my biggest day," the daughter went on. "She had a pocket square of the same fabric made for my dad to have in his tux pocket." She added, "My mom always stands out in the best way, and this was another example of that. She is an inspiration to me in so many ways—fashion included." People appreciated the mom's style and special gesture in the comments section of the post.

She is awesome." @batman2695 commented, "The fourth video I have seen where a woman looks better in a tux than me." @chickielina remarked about the family picture, "The first picture needs to be blown up and put in every room of your house. Because OMG! You guys are breathtaking." In another video, the bride shared a fun moment with one of her bridesmaids as the bridesmaid helped her crack her back during a photoshoot. "When your girls have your back in more ways than one," the woman joked through the text overlay of the video.
