Wedding Woes

troublesome sister-bridesmaid

so since the day i got engaged my sister has been excited for me but not willing to follow through with anything i've asked her to do. the rest of my bridesmaids have been very supportive, have already purchased their dress and shoes and even airplane tickets if necessary. everyone in our families has been supportive as well.....except my sister. she lives 2000 miles away and still hasn't bought her dress, shoes or plane tickets after multiple attempts. i've given her websites for dresses and the shoes to buy, offered financial help with the items, and even gave her a deadline after everyone else to ensure she'd get them. AND SHE STILL HASN'T. i'm very sad, disappointed and feel like my sister is someone i can't rely on anymore. should i ask her to not be a bridesmaid anymore?? or am i being a b-i-t-c-h? :(

  • She will take herself out if she can't get the dress in time, but no you shouldn't ask her to not be a bridesmaid.  You have done everything you can, leave the ball in her court so you don't look like the bad guy in this situation.
  • Hunny, i relate to your issues on so many levels. TO answer your question, leave it be. Do not offer anymore help. You have done your part, now its up to her to do hers. And I understand how its going to hurt your feelings but at the end of the day, the only people that matter is YOU and YOUR HUSBAND. I say this because I have been battling with my sister also and I have come to a point where I am not going to let her ruin this for me. She has argued about everything from the dress to the hair to the shoes, she hasn't even said congrats, or showed any sort of excitement! And if it comes down where she doesn't show up, I'll be sad, and so will you, but that just lets us know where we stand. Life is too short to worry about other people. You have yourself and your new husband and new life to worry about. This is one day, be happy.

  • Thanks...yes it's difficult because its my sister of ALL people but more and more people have said the same thing you have. I ended up telling her I love her very much but I just can't count on her to be a bridesmaid anymore but I hope she will still be there. I've still gotten no response back.... :
