Anyone out there having bridesmaid regret?? I had asked my bridesmaids over a year and a half ago to be my bridesmaids (10) and with covid we are postponing the wedding to be summer 2022! I had let them know that it was being cancelled at first and now we’ve finally decided on a new month and year. Half of them I’m really close to and have kept up with and regularly (at least once a month get together, group chat, etc) and a few of the others are distant sorority sisters (they’re all sorority sisters) but these girls I haven’t spoken with much after college but about a year after my BFF got engaged and married 2 years later and we were all her bridesmaids. We had so much fun getting together again and I felt like they would also be my bridesmaids too but I’m feeling now like I asked out of obligation over being super close to them. I haven’t reached out about the updated wedding plans yet because of the holidays but I’m having second thoughts on including them for our new destination wedding. I’m already dropping a few to make it smaller (basically from 10 to 7) and I’ve already made up my mind with them since it was a bad coworker that turned rotten and a few friends that fell out and don’t support my marriage anymore (so they were no brainers to cut). But now we are doing a destination wedding and I’m feeling like I should only have those closest to me instead of obligation. But I still like them as friends but we’re aren’t as close anymore and they don’t really reach out or talk much to me. Which isn’t bad it’s just being distant friends I guess.
Is it wrong to switch up my bridal party and just invite them as guests now? When I think of doing bridal party things, it’s with my main group of friends, and then I have to remember I have a few more to include. It’s hard when people don’t live near you and don’t keep in contact! And advice?
