I just had my wedding last Friday. It went great and everything but now that it’s over, I feel pretty let down by my bridesmaids. I never asked for a lot and was flexible with them. One of them was late to wedding and her husband didn’t even show up until mid-meal service. My other bridesmaid’s boyfriend did the same as well. The first bridesmaid I mentioned canceled on me last minute for makeup, which I still paid for. Her reason was that she made an appointment that day that she literally could’ve taken care of any other day as she’s not working right now. She was late because she didn’t expect the appointment to go on so long and her lyft was delayed. She got a lyft because she told me beforehand that she was going to get drunk. So she prioritized getting wasted over being on time. The other bridesmaids were pretty much just bodies and did not offer any emotional support or anything during that day when I already feeling very overwhelmed. I’m just disappointed and I regret trusting them with one of the biggest days of my life. I didn’t expect them to be super excited but to at least check on me to see if I needed anything during the event. I didn’t even get wedding gifts from them either, which isn’t that important but I got them all gifts. I felt like that was kind of inappropriate given how much money my husband and I paid for the event.
Even today, only one has asked how I’m doing. I’m just not sure if I’m overreacting or if I need to re-evaluate my friendships because I really trusted them. For now I’ve just put distance between us.
