Hello,
My wedding is coming up really soon. So I am seriously on crunch time. Recently I asked one of my bridesmaids if it were possible if she could assist our photographer for a bit to point out all of our guest so he can get familiar with who's who.. Instead of just responding "NO"... She stated that "isn't it enough that I'm standing in 4 inch heels?".. I tried my best to remain calm and overreact and just told her that if she just wanted to say NO .. thats all she had to do. Her response was then "Well, not that many people will be in the wedding anyway so I don't understand why he needs any help". Followed by, "did you ask anyone else to do this?....How long would I have to stand? If I do, I'm wearing flats so can I have someone help?"...
At this point, I'm sure any bride would be frustrated. Mind you, I have not asked ANY of my bridesmaids to assist with anything with the wedding planning ..all I asked was for them to get their dresses and THATS IT!.
Am I wrong for wanting to kick her out of my wedding?? And this is not the first time she's been a u know what.... Am I overreacting?
All comments and thoughts are appreciated.
Thanks

Thank you all for your responses. After reading my post again and reading your answers, I do realize I was overreacting. Please understand that I was very upset and frustrated as I am sure many brides can understand my pain. I will be sure to talk to my bridesmaid about this topic so theres no hard feelings and apologize to her so we can have a happy wedding and friendship. I will be sure to ask someone else to assist the photographer so everyone is happy!
For the record... the girls LOVE the shoes! .. and she was exaggerating when she said they were four inches..(I think its a tad under that ) lol
To all who felt I was "yelling" "being bratty" etc. Bite me..lol seriously.. Understand that I was having a moment for the situation was still fresh in my mind.Thanks for your response but be nice to the brides on here. When we are going thru it we don't need your negativity. Be truthful at the same time but be respectful Don't make matters worse!
