maid of honor does/does not?

kaydwoo

I am getting married duh
 my sisiter and i have had a shaky relationship since i was engaged i still want her to be my maid of honor but. And i have two amazing bridesmaids
 here is my problem  she very generously offiered to take me and my brother(groomsmen0 on a trip to vienna all exspense paid. As a final thing keep in mind not including other bridesmaids. I understand forgoing the cheesy cheap bachelorette party it just seems weird to me . She knows the bridesmaid real well. But also has not gotten to know my best firend who is a bridemaid.
 Also i am still trying to afford my honeymoon, and when i talk about my dress she avoids the subject. even though the dress is the big thing in a wedding next to the bride.   I guess there is no right way to think about this but send myour thoughts please oh and she can tlak about invites but not the dress

Ummm actually it is the groom. At least, my groom is more important than some dress that is going to be worn once; I guess yours isn't. Priorities girl!

I am so confused.

Aerin you obviously didn't understand the gravity of the dress.  Too bad you missed out.  I recommend a "vow renewal" next year to make up for it.

Eh, my dress was nice and all but it wasn't all that and a bag of chips.  It was just a dress.

I actually don't really understand the post.  I just wanted to talk about my dress for a minute.

I'm sorry, are you suggesting your sister take your brother, you and your bridesmaids to Vienna? Beyond the fact that that's kind of expecting a lot of money out of your sister who is already offering a generous trip, I think it's really sweet she'd want to do something with just the siblings bfeore you get married.

Don't get me wrong, I love weddings, I love seeing my siblings find the right people, but when my older brother got married the sibling dynamic changed forever. We would never again be this close little group of four, for one thing we certainly won't see eachother every holiday.

So while I adore my SIL, a wedding is a little bittersweet I really appreciate the chance that I had to take a vacation in Europe with just my brother before he got married.

Ok so I read this three times. And I still don't get it.

#1: Proofread.
#2: Proofread.
#3: Thank your sister for a trip to Vienna. Good grief.
#4: Your dress is NOT by any stretch of the imagination as important as your GROOM, your FAMILY, and your FRIENDS.
#5: The bach. party has nothing to do with it.
#6: Proofread.

K, thanks.
