Hey everyone!
I have a serious issue on my hands. I got engaged last June and immediately asked my girls to be maids. Everyone seemed excited, and we've had a party or two to celebrate the wedding. A few months ago, I gathered everyone to go get their dresses. One of my maids couldn't come, saying she and her hubby had an obligation. Ok, no biggie... I didn't mind too much. That was in January. I've been asking her repeatedly when she's going to get her dress (we're getting down to the wire and I really need to make sure she has it.)
Well.
This morning I got an email (a freaking
email!!) saying that she just has too much going on in her life right now to be a bridesmaid for my wedding. Seriously?! I'm stunned, hurt and confused... I thought she was a good friend and I can't believe she didn't even having the hutspa to call me. Now I don't know what to do.
On one hand, I don't even want to invite her to the wedding (or the bridal showers, bachelorette party, etc) I feel like she led me on with her false acceptance of being in the wedding. On the other hand, I guess she does have a lot going on right now, and I'm unsure of how to handle the whole situation.
So what to do?
Also, now I'm short one girl in the bridal party. Should I just ask another of my friends to 'fill in' for her? Or have my FI delegate one of the groomsmen as an usher? OMG! So confused
TIA ladies, and thanks for reading this.
