   3 months after securing our venue/date, my bridesmaid got engaged and chose a date for 2 weeks after our wedding. She asked that I be a bridesmaid prior to them choosing a date and I accepted.

It sucks that…

   Allrighty, step by step here :) 1. You should not have cut your HM short, and if you can, change it back. On the flipside, don't judge the length of her HM because of a random comment, Maybe she does think it's long, but someone is helping them pay for it, whatever, who knows, or her FI booked it and didn't really care she…

   Neither did likefrankiesaid. Then she got banned. It's just part of the rules, whether you solicit or not. Vendors are not allowed on the message boards.

    I know, I've been thinking about it. I need to get a quote on how much it's going to cost to get my hair, make up, and nails done, and then we'll see.
