    I asked my fiance's sister to step out of the wedding party. She is due basically on the wedding day.

    It's my wedding and I don't want the drama. Besides, she needs to focus on herself and the baby, not our ordeal.

    My MOH is pregnant, and even though its a trek from TX to GA, I've asked her that when it comes time for the wedding, should she feel she or the baby are not capable of traveling this far, to not come. I've told her that the health of her child and her are more important than my wedding. I also said that I truly want her there, but would understand if she's not able to make it. As far as flying, its up to her, her husband, and her doctor. The flight is only 4 hours, but being so close to due date, it may not be a great idea. As far as me asking her to step down, never. In the event she is unable to make it (and hopefully can give me a few days advance), I wouldn't 'replace' her as MOH, but I would certaintly ask the next bridesmaid in line to stand next to me. In a sense, that bridesmaid will seem like a back-up MOH, but won't get the title - she will be introduced as a bridesmaid.

    If the wedding were to take place in a different country, I would highly recommend the MOH not attend for fear of something happening. However, if they are comfortable and confident in travel arrangements and you know where the nearest hospitals are in the event of an emergency or early birth, then you should be g-t-g.

    [QUOTE]My sister will be six months pregnant at my wedding (which is over 1000 miles away) and she is MOH. Should any complications arise and she couldn't attend, I would be heartbroken.  The idea of "replacing" her is not remotely a possibility.  <strong>I'd send her the bouquet and webcast the ceremony. Replacing her would be such a slap in the face.

    No, don't repleace the MOH she's already been asked. If she feels she can do it then it's up to her. As for the dress I sugget choosing one which can be altered and is "prego friendly" --shaffon or something flowly like that. :)

    WOW!!!  Just an update:  My daughter and her MOH are just fine.  The MOH knows my daughter has her best interest at heart, and feels comfortable if she can't make the wedding....it is a far trip for her.  It's called honest communication.   Seriously, some of you people have ISSUES.(esp the ones with thousand+ posts that are downright rude!!! ) Thanks to the few people  who were kind and actually understood the question I had!
