We don’t expect much from our wedding party just a few tasks and appearances like pay for your dress/tux and show up to the bridal shower & wedding rehearsal and to the actual wedding.
I dont know what it is. Are people lazy? Do they not have the money? Do they not care about being responsible? We are having a hard time to get people to be on top of their ish!!
My bridesmaid just called me stressing out because she just told me she didn’t order her dress back in October when we all went dress shopping but instead she purchased late December (which I think means after Christmas) Back in October the expected delivery date was the middle of February for my April 4th wedding.
Well she said in December she called after placing the order and was told that her dress would arrive beginning of March (the other girls dresses took 3-4months) so there was no reason to rush the dress. But she’s telling me she found out her dress wont be in until JULY.
I have a feeling she didn’t purchase the dress until this week because according to Davids Bridal website it says estimated delivery will be July 7 if purchased today. I have a feeling she probably thought the dress could be rushed but because its a custom color thats not in stock it will take a while to ship.
I knew in October she was going through some personal things and I never expect my wedding to be more important than anyone’s personal life. But come on! Im disappointed she didn’t come to me and tell me she couldn’t afford the dress or for whatever reason she couldn’t purchase. I would have bought it for her and asked her to pay me back later.
At first I didn’t mind for my BMS to wear different dresses but all dresses be the same color. But everyone picked the same dress. I don’t really want to have 3 girls in the same dress & color and another girl in either the same dress&different color or different dress&different color.
None of the davids bridals in all of Northern to Southern California have the dress in stock. I also dont think im willing to hunt down a dress that matches the same color from store to store whether we go to Macys or nordstroms or wherever. Also my BM lives in LA which is 5hours away. So it is what it is but im disappointed.
NOW TO THE GROOMSMEN
My FH groomsmen are taking so long to get their tuxes. The one groomsmen that hasnt been fitted yet is getting cut because now we have only 3 BMs so since he doesn’t have a tux we wont have uneven numbers. His best man Barely paid for his tux last week after getting fitted back in January. Another groomsmen that got fitted at the same time just SIMPLYY needs to pay for his tux rental online (we are using the Black Tux) FH feels frustrated because hes tired of asking. I reached out to the last groomsmen’s girlfriend so she can push her man to pay. I gave her a deadline that it has to be paid by next week.
WE HAVE LESS THAN 30days!! COME ON PPL GET IT TOGETHER PLEASE
