Another Sister/BM Rant!

What is wrong with some people?  My sister is a BM (I only have a MOH and her).  She gave me the blues about the BM dress, did't like this one, did't like that one.  The only one she really liked was butt ugly and looked like club ho-wear. So, I made an executive decision and chose the dress.  When she saw i wasn't playing, she backed down.  Then she wanted to wait until June to order because she thought she wouls lose weight.  My wedding is in September..... no, you can't wait until June.  Besides, she is munching on brownies and eating buffalo wings and fried every Thursday night with her hubby.

Anyway, about a month ago, I told both ladies that I wanted to get the dresses ordered.  I got a discount at David's because I got my dress there.... plus, I have a hook up in Delaware so I've been getting everything tax free.  I gave her one last chance to take herself out before I ordered the dress.  I told both of them that I would need their dress money by the end of the March to pay off my credit card (what sense does it make to save on tax then pay interest charges???).  Bothe agreed and said no problem.  I received a check from my MOH 2 days ago.  I haven't heard a peep out of dear sister.  So I call..... no answer.  Then, I sent a text reminder yesterday that I needed the money by next week.  I don't hear back from her until today (passive-aggressive delayed response).  My text didn't say "do you have the money?"  It said "will you be mailing me a check or do you want to send it via PayPal? (two can play that game).

So, today she texts back "paypal"   No greeting.  No nothing.  What was Ithinking????  I'm stuck with her now.  I sent the PayPal request, so I hope I get my money soon.  Is it September 18th yet????

    GIRL, I understand. I still don't know if my sister has ordered her dress. I was NOT about to add things to my to-do list like ordering their dresses! At this point, I don't care. There WILL be a vow renewal with or without her!

    Right I feel you all on all of this. It's alot of drama dealing with folks and their bs. Sisters included. I am with Ty on this one. I've spoken my piece and if you don't have a dress then your bad you can sit in the audience with the regular guests.

    Plain and simple.

    Oh wow. I don't think I would order her dress cause if she pulled some stunt & says she doesn't have the money, there would be a problem that would go further than the wedding. But since you already ordered the dresses, she just better come with her money. Now why does it seem like its the sisters that are acting up??!!
