When Bridesmaids Go Bad!

So then I call my friend and she tells me this story... Apparently she called DB to see if this girl even ordered her dress. Come to find out, she never even ordered her dress! It was not listed under her name or my friend's. All that was listed under my friend's name was mine and her cousin's dress. But a lovely little thing she did buy was her own wedding gown, but no bridesmaid dress. So my friend totally threw her out of the wedding today. She texted and called and left a message telling her that she is no longer in the wedding. She was able to get a refund on the girl's make-up, but spent about $200 on her gifts and such. She is going to give them to her Mom since their names start with the same letter.

All I can say, how sorry do you have to be to treat someone like that?! To commit to being in a wedding and then totally bailing 4 days before you're supposed to be there?

My piece of advice would be this lades:

Do NOT put someone in your bridal party that you have not seen in 8 YEARS. We have not seen this girl since high school. My friend was anxious about having uneven numbers, but about a month ago a groomsmen backed out due to his Dad is dying. Totally acceptable reason. This girl, however, no reason has been given period. Make sure that your bridal party includes people you love and KNOW will support you on your big day. I hate my friend had to go through this, but at least now she knows how that girl is.

Good luck with your wedding plans!

All I can say is WTH.

Wow. That's awful, but good for your friend for booting her! Just cut the ties and enjoy her day! I had a friend that had a similar falling-out w/ a bridesmaid at the last minute. I don't know the whole story, but she made sure that girl didn't ruin her wedding. And she has no regrets!

To be honest Ashley, I have never really cared for this girl, so it really worked out for the best for ALL of us! lol And now she has even numbers so there will be 2 BMs and 2 GMs.

Even better! I'm so glad everything is working out! Your friend is going to have a great day!

Oh no! How stressful...

Wow. I don't even know what else to say, other than, Wow. I'm glad everything worked out for the best though

Thanks Singing Diva!! She deserves it! This has been a long time coming!

Wow, that's really rude, inconsiderate, and awful. I am glad she booted her and everything worked out! What a terrible thing to have to go through the week before your wedding.

Wow I feel so bad for your friend. Terrible unneeded stres the week of her wedding. She is lucky to have a great friend like you!

Thanks Corinne! I have tried to make things go as smoothly as possible since all this mess started. I just keep telling her that now her day will perfect and DRAMA FREE!

Wow Ashley that is a terrible situation, as the other ladies have stated it's good that she severed ties now before the wedding so that she can have the best wedding without worrying and stressing on the day!

Well at least it looks like it will end smoothly.
