I need some guidance. I have two sisters who are close in age to myself. Sister #1 I speak to frequently, has been a big supporter of me and we are close. Sister #2 and I don't talk even half as much, are historically not as close and she recently won a beauty title that will require a year's worth of time and travel including the entire time leading up to and during my wedding. So after I got engaged I asked sister #1, but not sister #2 to be a bridesmaid.
Because of our relationship, her upcoming schedule and almost complete lack of communication, I didn't realize sister #2 would care let alone be horribly upset, which she now is. Have I royally blown the first wedding decision I made? Is there any way to remedy this so grudges aren't held?
I know the natural answer would be to ask her now to be in it, but that would hardly come off as genuine. Also the wedding will have approximately 35 guests so having an equally small bridal party seems important to me.
Any advice about this would be appreciated.
