Maid worries

Hello all!
Just looking for some advice on how to handle this situation. One of my maids has not bought her dress, and I am worried that we are running out of time. I have talked to her about it a few times and always get a "ill get it soon" or "ill get it in 2 weeks" (her responses to me for about the last 2 months). The wedding a month and a half away, and I just don't know what to do about this. I don't want to annoy her, but I am really worried.
I would NEVER ask her to step down, or dream of replacing her (i see a lot of people on here do that), so don't worry about that. My main concern is annoying her, and I really don't want to do that.

Re: Maid worries

  • If she knows it has to be done, just let it go. You have other stuff to worry about 6 weeks out from your wedding. Of course you hope she steps up and takes care of it, but if she doesn't then there's not much else you can do. Nagging is rarely productive and just annoying.

  • I'd let it go. If she doesn't get the dress, she takes herself out of the wedding. That's on her then, not on you.

    You've told her enough that she needs her dress.  Now just let it go.  If she does not have the dress by the time of your wedding, then she has removed herself from the BP. 

    Since your other BM have gotten the dress already, I know you cannot change it.  But did you ask each girl's budget privately?  Perhaps the dress is too expensive for her?

  • As @Oliveoilsmom said, there's not much you can do about it. Let it go. Guess she really didn't want to be a BM, 'cuz the only thing they have to do is buy the dress. I'm sorry.
  • Thanks everyone.

    And yes, I asked everyone their budget individually, and was able to find one under the budget I was given.

    Ill just let it go and hope for the best!
