Rant - my bridesmaids are driving me crazy!

PaleoPrincess, on June 6, 2016 at 7:16 PM Posted in Planning 0 6

I have a maid of honor and two bridesmaids... my sister is MOH, and a close family friend and my FH's sister are bridesmaids. FH's sister is fine, but my sister and friend are driving me insane! When I asked, they asked what their jobs were. No jobs, I said, just show up sober in the right dress. Three months ago, they informed me they would be throwing me a bridal shower/Bachelorette party a few days before the wedding, and I was appropriately grateful. Now, it's a month before the wedding and they are driving me CRAZY. They are constantly in a weird power struggle over various elements of the party, and call me to complain about the other, and read me their text conversations. At this point I want to tell them to call it off, since it's ruining their friendship! Idk what to do... vent over.

    Stay out of the drama and have a nice glass of wine... or two.

    It might take 3... earlier one told me not to talk to the other one about it without consulting her first.

    As adults, they need to work this out. You don't need the added stress.

    Last wedding I was in I pretty much planned the entire bachelorette party since I'm more of an organizer. I had to let it go when BP members were late to things we had reservations for. It was frustrating but it worked out. No one really disagreed with the plans. The MOH was OOT so I did the planning, but ran all ideas by everyone for approval. No one stepped up to help but in some ways it was easier to do it myself. When it came to money, everyone paid me quickly for what we agreed on splitting so that part was stress free.

    Tell them both that they are responsible for figuring it out and to leave you out of it. They are causing you stress and need to know that isn't cool. If they can't tell them you won't be attending.

    One of my good friends had this same issue last summer. She just got really drunk and everything worked out in the end.
