When we were in our 20s, my MOH & I agreed to be the MOH in each others weddings. When I got engaged, I knew I was going to ask her, but had some reservations. Though I love her & have known her for ages (she just turned 41, I'm closing in on 40), I know that despite her best intentions, she can be pretty self-centered and a bit of a drama queen. I hoped she'd pull it together for my big day, but...
Well for the Bachelorette Party, she was organizing a group to meet me in Vegas. The first night out, we all agreed that it would not be the BIG night since everyone had just arrived and we wanted to ease into it. We ended up staying out till 5am anyway... but that's Vegas, right?
She had secured some passes into some clubs for the following night. During that day, however, she & another friend went out & got wasted. My other friend & I shopped. Their being wasted was less of an issue because when we met up around 5pm, we started catching up. Unfortunately, the other 2 stopped drinking. Needless to say, the night was a disaster. The club was too crowded, they afternoon drinkers were not that interested in being out. I wanted to party but wanted everyone to want to party (which wasn't happening). Long story short - there were tears & people storming out. It was awful. After cooling off, we talked it through... apologies were shared. We moved on.
Now, 10 days away from the wedding, she calls to say she only just got her dress & it doesn't fit. She wants to know what she should do. I don't even know where to begin. All I've asked is that she & my other bridesmaid get navy dresses. The style was not at all important to me... so what am I supposed to say that doesn't sound bitchy?
