From the context, Mary was clearly requesting his help.

'Do whatever he tells you' is not ASKING anything.

Huh?

Mary did ASK JESUS.

Your quote is what she TOLD the SERVANTS at the wedding. Nobody ever said that she asked the servants anything.

Mary did ASK JESUS.

Golly; I must have failed to include the QUESTION mark when listing what she SAID.


 

 All the Words of Mary...
...as recorded in the Bible.


 
 
 ...To the angel
And Mary said to the angel: How shall this be done, because I know not man?
And Mary said: Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it done to me according to thy word.  (St Luke 1:34, 38   D-RC 1752)
 
 
 
...To Elizabeth
And Mary said: “My soul glorifies the Lord and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior, for he has been mindful of the humble state of his servant. From now on all generations will call me blessed, for the Mighty One has done great things for me—holy is his name. His mercy extends to those who fear him, from generation to generation. He has performed mighty deeds with his arm; he has scattered those who are proud in their inmost thoughts. He has brought down rulers from their thrones but has lifted up the humble. He has filled the hungry with good things but has sent the rich away empty. He has helped his servant Israel, remembering to be merciful to Abraham and his descendants forever, even as he said to our fathers.” (Luke 1:46-55)
 
 
 ...To Jesus
His mother said to him, “Son, why have you treated us like this? Your father and I have been anxiously searching for you.”  (Luke 2:48-50)
 
 
... at Cana
And when the wine gave out, the mother of Jesus said to Him, “They have no wine.”
His mother said to the servants, “Whatever He says to you, do it” (John 2:3-5).
