I would like to consider myself a pretty relaxed bride. I am almost completely indifferent about most things "wedding". Only a few things, like my centerpieces and my dress, I am really picky about. So it's not like I am a bridezilla expecting my bridal party to tie every ribbon and make sure it's straight. But it seems like my whole party for the last few months has been completely MIA. I have 7 BM, 3 of which are out-of-staters. I do not expect anything from the out-of-staters, obviously. They are doing ME a big enough favor just by coming. 2 of the other girls have new houses with children and I understand they are busy. The other 2 BM, however, are single with part time jobs and nothing but time on their hands. Yet, not ONE of them has offered to help with anything! In fact, neither of the two single girls have even gotten their dresses altered and the wedding is 11 days away! I just feel like they don't care AT ALL and they are supposed to be some of my best friends. I am really at a loss as to what do do after the wedding is over. Do I pretend my feelings weren't hurt? What happens when their Special Day comes around and they expect me to help with every tiny detail? I am just kind of shocked as to how they are so uncaring of one of the biggest days of my life. I understand they have lives and I don't expect them to help me with everything, but an offer would have at least been nice.
Live long, laugh often, love much.
