When I first got engaged & was completely WP oblivious & dumb. You girls gave me a crash course in their right way to view the WP. Anyways, let me back up.I chose my WP early on, which I in no way regret. However, I didn't choose a friend b/c she lived far away & thought asking her would be rude & I would be obligating her to come to my wedding and to spend x amount of money. Well this weekend I saw her for the first time since we got engaged & all I kept thinking was "I AM RETARDED" why did I NOT ask her to be apart of my WP?? Anyways, she is most likely moving within driving distance so my dumb "well its $$ to fly excuse" went right out the window. Again, I admit this reasoning was beyond dumb. So in the end, I apologized to her & asked her if she would be in my WP & I would be honored for her just to stand with me, no pressure, and she didn't need to do anything other than stand up next to me on my wedding day...and she said yes! We were both crying & so happy we have more excuses to hangout now. My point is THANK YOU GIRLS! You are the best & other posters --- please take their advice to heart & realize your WP are your irreplaceable friends that you couldn't imagine not spending your day without -- nothing more, nothing less.
