  • Nope. If pressed again, just say that you just couldn't invite everyone you would have liked to (and perhaps add that you look forward to getting together after the wedding).
  • Oh, and I just wanted to add that 80 people is not a small wedding, by any means. My wedding had 30 people.
  • Honestly you can't avoid hurt feelings. If you still want to attempt to maintain a friendship with the previous bride I'd simply tell her what previous posters have suggested and then bean dip if she persists. I'd ignore the other two. Have you talked to them since the wedding? I think what they did was rude and presumptuous.

  • You definitely don't need to ask the other bridesmaids to come to your wedding. It's your wedding, your guest list. (I had someone ask to be invited to my wedding, too. I just said that we wanted to keep the wedding small and that with my big family, I wasn't sure how that would look. She never followed up, and I never sent an invite.)

    Regarding your drunken promise, no, I don't think you owe it to her. It sounds like you've already found the perfect bridesmaids, and this friend isn't a part of it. Things change. Time has passed. Invite her to your wedding if you want, but don't feel obligated to do more.

    (Congratulations!)

    Drunken promises and invitations to be in wedding parties before you are even engaged are null and void in my opinion. 


    What did you think would happen if you walked up to a group of internet strangers and told them to get shoehorned by their lady doc?~StageManager14

  • Are you planning on inviting that friend (not her bridesmaids) to your wedding? I think it would be weird if I was good enough friends with someone to be in their wedding party, but didn't want to invite them to my wedding. It's your call of course and I know that time has passed, but that's just my thought.

    As for the other two, explain to them that you're really sorry, you had a great time at your friend's wedding with them, but you're keeping your guest list really small and can't include them.

    What's up with the dd?
    Seriously! All the OP was asking was if she should ask bridesmaids that she was bridesmaids with from another wedding to be bridesmaids in hers. I think girls BS a lot and say a lot of crap they don't mean especially "oh if I ever get married I will have you as a bridesmaid" OP shouldn't invite them. They shouldn't have invited themselves to the wedding either.
  • You want to know what's frustrating? When people change the thread name and original post so it looks like they smashed their head into the keyboard.

    Ironically, that's what I want to do when I find threads like this.
