how often do you speak to people in your bridal party??

question how often do you all speak to your BM/ MOH? Its it bad that I talk to everyone but the MOH on a regular basis (just general convo not just wedding stuff)??

Like convo just seems to flow with everyone else.. and its kind of a chore to talk to her

Re: how often do you speak to people in your bridal party??

  • When I had 4 girls..the 2 that dropped out/got kicked out...I would only talk to them maybe once a week if that..sometimes once every 2 weeks. My MOH was my little sister so I talked to her quit often. Then my BM/BFF I talked to her quit often. I might of went just a couple of days without talking to them but nothing drastic. I will say some times talking to BM would be draining because she always had drama going and sometimes I would be like "ugh..I don't want to hear this b.s. right now" and just wouldn't answer. Lol especially if like me and DH was talking and laughing about some thing..I wouldn't answer..I'm like damn..she just ruin my high of laughing it up wit my babe lol
  • I talk to my bridal party almost every day.I have two MOH my little sister and my cousin who is like my sister If we don't talk on the phone we group message every day and we always have 3 way calls which gets on my FI nerves because he thinks we don't have that much to talk about.My sister is 10 years younger than me so she keeps me young and I have to talk to her on a daily because these undergrads I teach and their slang and all have me all out the loop so she's my "go to" girl. I guess since I'm so far away we miss each other alot and talk all the time. One of my maids is one of my cohort members in my PhD program, seriously we are sisters from other mother. We have so much in common even though she's from India, we have really been each other's support system through out this whole PhD experience so we speak daily.My matron of honor is my college BFF we talk maybe once a week and my other maid we talk maybe every other week. But I'm very close with all of them and we talk all the time about any and everything.

    I talked to 4 girls in my BP regularly about my wedding I had been in two of their weddings and did everything for them so it didnt feel like i was badgering them or they were jealous , etc. I ended up switching one MOH with another BM who always asked to help and talked to me every day. 

    I had 7 girls and 2 MOH so I didnt expect everyone to be thrilled about every last wedding detail. They had lives too and I respected that as much as possible

    I have three "honored attendants," but all three live in different places. My best woman is like a sister (much closer relationship with her than with any family member). She's global though - now she's in Nigeria and looking for a job either in Houston, Texas or East Africa. We talk off and on, maybe once a week. My other two attendants live in the States - one in Baltimore and works across the street from me and another who lives in Columbia, MD, which isn't too far from where I live. With my friend in Baltimore, we talk almost everyday because we work at the same agency, though just one street apart (thank god for instant messenger). My Columbia friend and I are members in the same gym, so he and I talk about once a week.

    I talked to them most days. It has always been that way. I'm sorry to hear that it's a chore to talk to your maid of honor. Why is that?

    minsu5, you live right around me, lol.
  • I have three BMs.   Two of my girls are married with children/grandkids and the last girl is single and keeps herself busy.  I've worked with all 3 of my BMs (one currently) at some time or another and developed a friendship outside of work.  Obviously the one I work with I speak to all the time.  The other two I talk to or email with a few times per month.  We are all close despite our intermittent communication.  As far as the wedding goes they get it. I don't have to tell them much.  They know exactly what I am hoping for and just want to make sure it happens for me.  :)

    It can make you weak and strong simultaneously.
