MOH and BM problems

Do any of you have a flaky MOH or BM? Our BM is late to everything and both MOH and BM seem to do things that are only convenient to them. How do I avoid this problem for the rehersal dinner and wedding? I need to talk to them obviously but how would i word it so they dont get offended?

    What are they late to and what things are they doing that's "only convient to them"?  Honestly the only thing that you can do without sounding like a brat is tell them the time they need to be at the wedding and rehearsal and let them be adults.  If they're late to the rehearsal it's not a big deal (two of my BM didn't show up until it was almost over and they still understood how to walk down the aisle).  <div>
    </div><div>Are all of your BM getting ready together?  If they're getting their hair done with you let them know what time their appointment is and trust they'll be there. </div>

    My FMIL is chronically late (often by hours.)  Her other son lives out of state, and rather than staying at a hotel, he will be staying with her before the wedding, and will make sure she's reasonably organized.  Then we're bringing her to the venue early, to get dressed with the wedding party.

    They're in your wedding party, so presumably you like hanging out with them, yes?  Can you or another wedding party friend or a family member hang out with them before hand?  Get your nails done together before the rehersal, have breakfast together the morning of the wedding?  It's NBD if their late to those things, but they'll be on time when you roll out to the next event.

    Hopefully. *crosses fingers*
