I'm a month away from the big day!
So here's the issue: I have one bridesmaid who has really slacked off in purchasing her dress. I have offered time and time again to help her by paying for the dress since it wasn't that expensive ($90 after taxes) or (if she was uncomfortable with that arrangement) paying for it now and having her pay me back later. Since January, when we picked the dress, she has declined my offer. Now when I check in with her, she says she hasn't had the money and will try to get the dress soon. I told her I would just get it. But now, David's Bridal doesn't have the dress any more.
WHAT DO I DO???
She is not the maid of honor, so I don't feel comfortable putting her in a different dress. And I'm NOT going to make the other girls buy a new dress. I don't want to punish her for not having the money, but I also don't want her in a different dress. I have been really easy about the accesories, letting each girl wear different shoes, etc. But I really wanted all the girls to have at least the same dress.
Only helpful advice on this situation please.
