Part 2: Unreliable Bridesmaids

Shanna, on December 11, 2020 at 12:13 AM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 13
So great news, one of my remaining bridesmaids’ dress came in the mail today (8 days early)!! My MOH dress is delayed till Jan 18. & one bridesmaid is ordering hers tomorrow. So many y’all read the other post. Maybe not. But there is one bridesmaid who didn’t order her dress by the deadline I gave them. She seen the bridesmaid dress that came early & told her “should I even order this dress cause I don’t like the color” OHHHH y’all know that set me on fire. & I’m a direct person for the most part & she especially knows how I am. But can you believe that???? Not to mention THEY ALL TRIED ON THIS COLOR DRESS ALMOST A YEAR AGO!!!

    Is she trying to drive you crazy??? I have a total of 3 & they all got their dresses in one trip. My MOH is wearing burgundy & the other 2 are red. They chose their own style & they will look beautiful!

    I’m not sure what she’s trying to do. But I’m hurt and I just texted her a long message on how I feel. I’m glad yours went more smoothly. I feel like everyone I picked besides the three that’s still in my wedding party weren’t Financially able and just didn’t care enough to save

    I'm sorry that this is causing more added stress onto you, which isn't needed right now! Even though you feel like three weren't financially ready to be in the bridal party, they should've discussed that concern with you in the beginning. But also, they've had almost a year to save up for this dress...

    I’m so sorry you’re having so much trouble with your bridal party! If it were me I would just cut her out, but I know that could cause unevenness between the bride/groom party. I hope she gets her act together and doesn’t cause any issues on your big day! Good luck!

    Sometimes weddings bring out the worst in people. If she didn't like the color she should have said something ahead of time. I only have 2 and as long as the dress was the color I chose they had freedom to choose whatever they wanted. They ended up getting the exact same dress.

    I would be beyond angry. It is your wedding so she whether she likes the color is completely irrelevant. She should keep her mouth shut and just order the dress. My sister-in-law considered yellow (before deciding on blue) for her bridesmaids dresses and even though I don't like yellow I would've worn it if that's what she wanted. I didn't even ask my girls opinion on the color for bridesmaids dresses because I knew what my husband and I wanted for our wedding.

    Sounds like she's being deliberately difficult, since she approved of the color last year when she tried it on!!

    Girl, I feel for you. I'm sorry I don't have any sage advice for you. I hope you can get through the next couple of months without too much more stress. You're almost there!!

    That’s exactly what it sounds like. & she never responded to my message. I’m still aggravated but I’m trying to not be. I’m honestly ready for February 13 to get here so I won’t focus on anyone but my FH & our son. Thank y’all for listening!
