Bridesmaid backing out 7days out

View Quoted Comment Because in the grand scheme of life, there are a lot more important things than a wedding- especially one that isn’t yours.

Hugs to you. Frustrating surely, I too would have wished that she had spoken to you directly and just be honest. Congratulations on your wedding and I hope the rest of the week goes smoothly!

View Quoted Comment Thank you 😊

View Quoted Comment I don’t get it either lol but you know how this forum works ppl have soo much to say when it’s not them but if the shoe was on the other foot I wonder if they’d keep that same energy... hmmm 🤔 good luck on your nuptials ❤️

View Quoted Comment I beg to differ it’s definitely my place to say how I feel about last minute changes to MY WEDDING especially when the person knew going into the wedding that it was a destination wedding and they had months to prepare... it’s not YOUR place to tell me or anyone else how to feel about our situation... but as I stated I’m turning lemons into lemonade the show has to go on and there’s no love lost.

View Quoted Comment Exactly, and thank you!

I never said it was. What I did say is, It's not your place to discuss or know her finances. If she's too embarrassed to say something, that's on her. My friends don't need to know my finances, it's none of their business. Things happen, finances change. Even with months of preparation something can change. I've had that happen, and I felt awful that I had to cancel what I had been planning, but life happens. I had to cancel my RSVP to a friend's vow renewal the day before. I felt awful for having to do so, but unfortunately, something happened and I couldn't attend.

I agree she should have reached out to you directly, I wasn't saying she shouldn't have, and I can see there's a typo in my comment you quoted, I apologize for that.

I also stated it sucks to have her back out like she did, and on such a short notice... I also stated try reaching out to her making sure she's alright, and focus on the good.

I'm sorry you're frustrated, I hope she's alright and looking forward to your bam.

I love That you are not allowing this to get the best of you! You deserve nothing but peace leading up to your awesome day! One day she will know what it feels like to bail out on someone at the last minute unfortunately but that’s not for you to prey on...stay focused and make all of your checks and balances that concern you and FH!!!! Keep us posted with pics...where’s the destination??? I’m 90days away and i cant wait! We are getting married in our home town of NYC!

View Quoted Comment Thank you, not angry at all just a little disappointed as I would have loved for all my friends to be there. Her knowing me I would have definitely helped her out to ensure she made it, still haven’t heard anything from her but I love her no less it’s just s little disheartening but it’ll pass. Thanks for the sound advice but it’s just a little odd to me days before the wedding to just discover you don’t have the funds when you knew what was what months in advance and to not express it to me but I’ll leave it alone.. my day will still be amazing and she’ll still be there in spirit.

View Quoted Comment Thanks a million 😊❤️ I will def post the pics when the day comes... our wedding is in my FH’s home country Nassau Bahamas 🇧🇸... good luck on your day as well NYC is amazing!

WOW! precluding an emergency its really disheartening about the timing... Props to you for keeping a positive outlook!
