a friend asked me to be part of her bp but....

So, a whle ago a coworker asked me to be part of her bp....thsi totally caught me, fh, and our friends by surprise! I said yes at the moment, bc I was totally put in the spot.
Now, to give u some background info on this future bride...
- wedding was almost called off at least twice
- infidelity
- begged me not to attend the eparty
- we dont' talk/hang out outside of work...we recentrly exchanged cell phone #'s.

I really dont think she wants to get married and above all I feel very uncomfortable being part of this bp, investing my time and $.

I have made up my mind and I want to tell her that I cannot participate...how can I break these news?

Use finances as an excuse. Explain that it will be hard since you and your FH are planning your own wedding right now.

Same here, that's the best excuse you can use.

I have to do this soon...the wedding is 10 months away. I hope she's able to replace me....I feel bad.. shes not even asking her sisters to participate!

I wouldn't be in that wedding party either! It sounds like an uncomfortable spot for you to be in and also a waste of time and money.

Don't worry, there's still plenty of time. A girlfriend asked me to be in her BP less than 2 months before her wedding and I was able to get the dress without a problem. (small fee for expediting the delivery, but no big deal in the end)

It sounds like a situation no one would want to be in.... and if she didn't even ask her sisters...
