I'm having an issue- and would like all of your opinions.  I originally didn't want bridesmaid but because my FI has a million friends and wanted groomsmen I ended up choosing 3 bridesmaids.  1 - MOH is a friend of mine, 2 - my cousin's wife who has been there for me throughout out many trials and tribulations, 3 - my niece (she is my 1/2 sisters daughter and I'm not that close to them- besides the occasional call).  I thought this combo would be great and everyone gladly accepted.  Earlier this year my cousin lost his job so they are not sure if they will be in attendance for the wedding - I completely understand this situation and I'm fine with it.  My sister is complaining about the price of everything (but she is the one that was inviting her boyfriend, his 3 kids her other 1/2 sister and the sisters family)  - and I haven't spoken to them again so I guess I'm counting my niece out also. 

 

Now the MOH - she went with me to originally try on my wedding dress - and also tried on the dress I liked.  This didn't initially bother me...but a few weeks later she send me a picture of a watch that looks exactly like the one FI gave me last Christmas.  So I said where did you get a pic of my watch she responds that her husband just bought it for her.  Now I'm a bit furious and decide to take some time off from her.  I got my dress with another family member I have still been getting things done. She sent me messages that her and her husband are trying to figure out what to do about booking because he doesn't know if he is coming...OK.  A few weeks ago I spoke to her about her dress- and decided to tell her we can look for her dress once she books her hotel - doesn't make sense to waste time and money if she doesn't book.  Now.....she just told me that she is prego...and want to change the dress because what I choose may not work.....

 

What do y'all think?  Some family member are telling me to get someone else to walk with me.

I ended up with a dress from Pronovias and they had some kind of sale going on so the price was really good too.

@ Tenny.... hmmmm I think I understood your story

Did you MOH purchase a dress yet or not?

I totally agree that you should wait until she books so you know for sure if she is coming or not before you purchase a dress. But then you also said shes pregnant now and wants a different dress, when is she due?

Judging the situation Im gonna say she's probably not going to go, and you should probably listen to your family and find another back up MOH

Hi Tennyt1,

 

Kind of a tough one!  I think it really comes down to how good of a friend she is?  The fact that she's pregnant and still wants to go to/stand in your wedding says to me that she's still committed.  I'm sure anyone not committed would use it as a way out....  If she's a good friend and you want her there, the bridesmaid dress shouldn't be a determining factor - everyone's gonna be looking at you all day anyway!!! 

 

I think it comes down to this - is it worth affecting your friendship to ask her to step down?  That can be a hard one for some friendships to survive...  But if this doesn't bother than you then maybe it is time to ask someone else.... 

 

Good luck with your decision!

      Cabo Azul Wedding Cost / Review

      By Emmma · Posted

      Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!

      Wedding venues and wedding planner in Costa Rica

      By KristinaH · Posted

      Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
