The mother of Married At First Sight bride Connie Crayden threatened to derail her wedding to Jonethen Musulin on Sunday night by raging against production.
Disapproving Rina, who initially called the show 'ridiculous and catty', slammed the 'manipulative' editing while speaking to producers at the Melbourne ceremony.
'This interview for example, you're going to take bits out and not play everything that I've said, that's for sure,' Rina said, when asked about her issues with the show.

Discussing the big day, Rina also barked: 'Clearly as a mother, when your child tells you, "Hey mum, I'm going on a show that you don't like", that's made it worse.
'I can't stand your show - it's an experiment that went wrong [last year] ... I think the show can be quite manipulating.'
Rina later warned guests 'not to say anything mean' as they're wearing microphones.

Despite her distaste, Rina went on to tell Connie's 'husband' Jonethen at their wedding reception that he had pleasantly surprised her with his vows.
When asked by a producer if this had given her hope about the controversial social experiment, Rina remained unsure.
'Looking at Connie and Jonethen, I'd love to think that they are the golden couple. I hope it works,' she mused, starting to warm to the idea.
