VENT** Kinda long

So today has been filled with DRAMA!! I was at the mall getting FI phone fixed and my I got a text it was FI best mans girlfriend who doesn't like me and i dont like her we have a REALLY bad past but I was looking past it for FI and his best mans sake. Anyways she asked how much the tuxes were going to be when they pick them up. I told her the price that was told to them when he went and got fitted for it and she says well we cant afford it so cody(best man) wont be getting his and I dont want him in YOUR wedding so hes not going to be in it but we will still come. By the way my wedding is THIS saturday!!! So I called FI Freaking out asking him to please fix it. So he calls BM and they get into a huge argument. and FI calls me back and says that BM will be replaced see if we can get josh in to get a tux!! so I text BM girlfriend back and tell her that she BETTER not show up at my wedding because if they are going to SCREW me over 5 days before my wedding then they better hope I dont see them cause i may go a little insane. So in better news we got a replacement BM got him fitted for his tux and we are getting back on track!!! GOD GIVE ME STRENGTH TO GET THROUGH THIS NEXT 5 days!!!! AAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!
Pregnant with our first!

    Your situation sucks, but did you really find a replacement BM instead of just moving one of the groomsmen up?

    you have got to be kidding me!!!!!!!!!! I am so sorry that happened to you! I would freak out on them. We did our tuxedos through mens warehouse and they have to pay for them when they get fitted I think. I had a money issue come up with one of my BMs but thankfully she told me soon after I asked her but it was still a headache!

    THAT IS RIDICULOUS.  Seriously, what a hag!!!!  And, you know what, BM isn't a very good friend if he can bail on his best friend days before his wedding too!  He should have immediately apologized for his girlsfriends reprehensible behavior and said of course he would pay for the tux!!  I'm sorry you had to deal with that!!

    omg thank god you got a replacement because holy cow that is incredibly rude and I can't believe people behave like that. your FI friend is so destroyed by that woman that is not a happy future for them.  When you agree to be in a wedding you agree to the cost and tux rentals are usually around 150 come one think of all the money us girls have to spend as BM. To stand up and be a supportive friend and wear a tux is the least that guy can do.  If this was my situation I would be just as furious and i would have that girl dragged out of my wedding.  I think she is half jealous she isn't getting married.

    Whoa, you've GOT to be kidding! What a ... well... you can insert your own choice word. At least their true colors came out now & not on the wedding day, or after when you're stuck with them in pictures forever. EW. People suck.

    irisheyez makes a good point.  Your FI's old best man should be in a relationship with someone who compliments him as a person, not someone who drags him down.  Toxic relationships can be so sad.  =(  I assume you used to be close since you said your issues with his girlfriend stem from you being protective of him.

     While they really should have planned for the cost when he agreed to be in the wedding, sometimes people really can't afford it. It just stinks that it had to be so close to your wedding date, but 'm glad you were able to find soemone.  :(

    I agree that sometimes financial things happen and these kinds of things are unavoidable.  What I think is absolutely ridiculous is that his girlfriend was hateful and that instead of profusely apologizing for having to drop out he got in a huge fight with your FI!  That's not right.
