Back in Feb. I asked a friend, Girl A, to be my MOH and she happily accepted. In March we went dress shopping for me and her. I found my dress and a week later we found hers. She didn't have the money to order the dress yet, which was total cool. By May she still hadn't ordered the dress after repeatedly telling me, "i'm ordering it this week." Her and I met up one night in May to talk. She and her hubby were apparently having money trouble and I totally understood and wasn't even upset/mad when she had to back out of being MOH. Things between us were left on a great note. She offered to help in whatever way she could as "long as I get to see you get married" were here exact words. She does hair and makeup as a living and offered to do that for the bridal party. Her Hubby had been asked to be a groomsmen as well. When I was told about their money trouble I asked if he'd need to back out too and she said NO since his cothing wouldn't be nearly as expensive. So the FI and I went w/ what she said.
This past Saturday night the FI and I are out celebrating his 30th birthday, woohoo, and Girl A's hubby txts my FI saying he cant come to the wedding at all now. When we asked if his wife wasn't either he said we'd have to ask her b/c he didn't know.
Yesterday I asked Girl A if she was or wasn't coming to the wedding b/c her Hubby wasn't now, for whatever reason. She then informs me that she wont be attending the wedding at all etiher!
WTF! I mean first she had to back out of being my MOH which I was very understanding of considering their money issues, then she agrees to do hair/makeup, her hubby backs out 100%, and then so does she! I'm really pissed off that yet again the FI and I are left scrambling to fix things. Am I crazy for being like WTF?!?!? They've backed out completely from everything now. I dont know whats going on, we were all friends.
FYI - our wedding is about an hr away, easily a quick drive so its not like they'd have to pay for a hotel and use money they can't spare. I work with Girl A's hubby and they're going out of town all the time so to me it seems like money is ok and an hr drive to my wedding wouldn't be bad at all! Could it be that b/c they just went to JOP that they're jealous of FI and I having an actual wedding?
I'm sorry this is like a book, but I'm just really hurt, upset, and confused that it went to all in to nothing!
