My friend is getting married July 10th and everything has been such an issue
1) she wanted us to spend over $300 on a BM dress, and called us vain when we said we would rather just not be in the wedding (It was a mermaid style with buttons all the way down the back, and I am a size 24, I wouldn't have even fitted into the largest dress)~ We settled that by getting same material and same colors and long, fine...
2) She planned her own shower which ended up being a big cluster you know what. She did it at a resturant owned by her FI and we only had 2 hours and then we had to set up 2 rooms for dinner service, we didn't know this until we got there...
3) She has basically been ignoring all of the BMs except her sister (the MOH) and another BM who is older and is friends with her and her sister, leaving me and the other 2 BM in the dark. She will only discuss things with us on facebook and won't answer our calls and texts and plees to get together. Her b-party will be a surprise is SAturday night, hopefully we can all get along.
4) Here is where I need some advice. She just told me today (through facebook) that she is having the actual wedding ceremony on July 3rd in upper state NY (a 6 hour roundtrip) (This is the wedding with the preiest, the wedding on the 10th, is a "for show wedding" as they will have already been married a week) and she said the rehersal is on the 26th of this month, so much for any advanced warning. I probably could go on the 3rd, but she doesn't seem to care either way and it is a long drive on a holiday weekend, should I go or not? She says we have to let her know by tomorrow afternoon.
This whole wedding just seems to be backwards and me and 2 of the other BMs are beyond annoyed and can't wait for the wedding to be done and hpefully get our friend back....
