I have one maid of honor and 3 bridesmaids, I sent each of them a special card and wrote a personal message asking them if they would like to be my bridesmaid..(except the MOH of course) I've gotten replies back from all of them but one. One of my bridesmaid is a former classmate of mine (we both recently graduated from Ultrasound school) she is having a tough time out there finding a job, she said she would love to be apart of my special day but financially she is not sure she can afford it and she would give me her decision when she decided. I've talked to her since and there is a lot of "IF I can be your bridesmaid"..etc etc. My question is, how long should I wait for an answer? I don't want to wait too long to pick out dresses and such..I just don't want her to feel like I am rushing her.
