Bridesmaids Have Bailed!!!!

WOW!!! whats up with these peoples answers!!! I don't think you're being demanding, just asked for some assistance and really when you accept to be bridesmaid, those are some things that are fun to do with the bride!!!! My brothers wedding was this April and I helped my SIL with everything! And now my wedding is next year and she's doing the same for me, not because she HAS TO, but because it comes from the heart and we like to do these types of things together.... you might just not have the right type of girls (not really good friends if you ask me) I hope everything works out for you, and don't listen to these IGNORANT people's comments!

I agree with what Rebekah. Find out what is going on with them. I don't think you need to spend the last 6 weeks running after people. You just don't need the stress.

I agree with future mrs.adams. Talk with them so you all of you can get a better understanding of what's going on. Don't make decisions when you're upset, breath a little. I empathize with you. Sometimes we have to reevaluate situations in our lives and even our friends. If possible let them be in the wedding, see if things change and afterwards make your decision as to whether you will remain friends, associates or terminate the friendships. Its your day and you deserve to be happy. Things will work out. What has helped me during this whole planning process is prayer and realizing people change and that's okay too.

Well well well; I say if your fh is willing to cut some of his groomsmen; then fine; if not only have your moh and he has his guys over on the side; its your wedding you can do whatever you like; Shannon has a really cool picture that looks awesome; and I agree with others doesn't sound like very good friends; I have some people that I have been friends with for years also but as time goes by it kinda fades; but when I announced I was getting married everyone was so excited; but because of the distance in friendship over the years I didn't dare ask any of them to be in wedding only my sister is my moh and my two grown boys will escort me down the aisle; stress free good luck to you honey I know how old friends can be I experienced that first hand myself take a deep breath and let God have it honey no time for worries now you gotta get married soon/ mine is this weekend

A lot of times we pick the wrong people. I honestly picked 4 girls and I am not asking them to do a single thing. I will be doing invitations, favors, planning, everything on my own because bridesmaids are not responsible for your wedding their only job is to get a dress and show up that day. Everyone has their own lives and business and you can't expect them to prioritize your wedding over their personal issues. I would not be chasing anyone at this point, I would call them when its time to get the dress, and call them the week before the wedding. If they do not want to be a part of it then remove them and have only 1 MOH and 1 bestman trust me its not worth all the stress. The wedding is about you and your happiness and the only person you need there is you FH so screw everyone else. People who are invited to weddings or asked to be in a wedding party should feel honored but that is all, you should not expect anything else.

Shannon!!!!! Your photo is absolutely GORG!!!! So Elegant! I love the way that looks. Definitely an idea!
