BM in or out?

I asked a 25 year old family member to be part of my wedding party months ago.  She seems really excited and talked about it, until lately.  Our dresses should have been ordered by December 15th. On that day, she emailed my MOH and said she needed an extension would order the dress that coming Friday. I've extended the offer to help financially and she declined.  Three weeks later, and still nothing.  She is now unresponsive to emails from my MOH.  I left her a voicemail almost a week ago, politely stating that we needed to order dresses in the next week.  I texted her two days ago saying that I understood if she couldn't make it happen, but I just needed to know what was going on - and still nothing.  Do I just assume that she is out?  Or, do I give her one more deadline of this Friday to at least contact me?  This stinks.

Re: BM in or out?

  • I'd consider her out at this point. You and your MOH have done all you can do. If she was in, she would've either ordered her dress or let you know if something else was going on. I'd continue with your plans without her.

  • Man, that stinks.  Have you tried asking any other family members if they know why she has suddenly become unresponsive?  I agree though, if she is this far past the ordering deadline, there is really not much you can do.

  • I am having a similar issue with a BM, although not a family member. She is a friend who is a little flaky, so I sort of knew she might not come through. She has not yet ordered the dress or let me know if I need to make arrangements for her hair. The way I figure it, I asked, she said yes, she has the details, and if she doesn't get the dress, she unfortunately will not be standing with me. No hard feelings, and I will still be happy to have her as a guest.

    It stinks, I know, but it's not the end of the world if she does back out. For me, it's the just not knowing that makes it worse.
