I just wanted to extend my thanks to all of you. Before I came here, there was a lot that I
know I would have done wrong. The biggest one is one that happened recently.
Before coming here, I had no idea about timeline as far as when to ask the bridal party to be a part of your big day. In my head, it made perfect sense to ask them as soon as you knew you wanted them! (And my wedding is still almost 18 months away...)
Well, I have recently had a fight with one of my friends I want as a bridesmaid (like, huge fight as in she blames me for damage done to her brand-new 3-day-old car...)
I know that we will move on from it and be friends again in the end, but I also know that right now would be an extremely awkward time between us if I had already asked her to be in my wedding. I would probably be second-guessing the decision, and I'd be posting here asking for advice on how to now remove her from my wedding
.
So, just want to say thanks! I love that everyone here is so brutally honest. It helps.
