Good morning, just looking for advice.
I found out about a month ago that there was some sort of debacle at the store when one of my bridesmaids ordered her dress- that there was a rush fee needed and that the BM was very upset about having to pay it and according to the bridal shop people she made a huge scene and told them that when her dress comes in she will be taking it somewhere else for alterations, and she was going to tell everyone she knew not to use this place. This does not sound like her, so as soon as I found out about it (I found out when I stopped in at the shop for a swatch), I called her and left her a vm about it, and what could I do to help, and that I would pay any fees if needed. She did not call me back, and I tried a few more times, and she still has not called me back.
I had my bridal shower sunday and she was there, and she was very not like herself and aloof. It was crazy so I did not get to talk to her at all one-on-one, so I did not want to bring it up in front of other people. Later, my mom had said that she seemed not like herself (she's known her for years, too). I also found out later that she did not help with any of the prep and has not been returing the other girls' calls. All the other girls were talking about possibly doing batchelorette and what kind of shoes to wear etc but she did not join in. She and her husb and one other friend just sat over to the side and did not talk to anyone else in the bridal party.
This is not at all a "I want to kick her out", which I am sure you are thinking it is! It is more a "how do I reach her- what do I do?" She will not return my calls. I would hate for her to be doing all this and just hating ever minute of it, for whatever reason. When I asked her to be in the party, she was excited about it. I don't know if this is all about the $15 rush fee, which I would totally cover. I guess if she will not talk to me, she will just be there at my wedding acting strange- I guess I can't really do anything about it. I plan to have a dinner for the girls and of couse there is the rehersal dinner, so I will see her then- I just wish there was something I could do to reach out to her and find out what is wrong.
Any advice? I appreciate it!
