As we approach closer to the wedding

are your BP more involved? Mine Hell no, it seems as though they are just so into themselves but oh well.

Re: As we approach closer to the wedding

I feel like I am doing a lot of the planning myself, but I have noticed that my BP is a lot more open to listening to me blabber about it...

Same with me.... only my cousin and 'honary' BMs Enift(Eliana) & Caligril06(Daphny) who are NOT in my BP shows me support.

I have not heard from BM since Oct.

Not really, they are and they arent. They are as involved as they were before it got so close

My Bridal party is very hands off except my little sister, matron of honor, and friend Kelly...

Thank heaven for Mommy... she's been the most help

I must say my MOH has been stepping up to the plate. Everyone else not so much. Every time I bring up all the wedding stuff I have to do people just blow it off and say how busy they are . . .

Re: As we approach closer to the wedding

MY BP has been great, they have asked me if they can help and have been checking to see if FH & I need anything. I am lucky

Re: As we approach closer to the wedding

Well, My FSIIL (BM) is Prego and do any day now, she has been the Only one Involved!!!!
My MOH, I am sure she has not done much. My other two BMs, One lives in Florida and the other Upstate NY. M FSIl and cousin. I Hope they are trying to help out my other FSIL.

Re: As we approach closer to the wedding

Mine are very helpful. But, I also understand that they all have children and jobs and their own lives. I don't ask them to do anything except when they were measured for their dresses. I'm not the kind of girl that needs them to hold my hand while I choose napkins. I don't need them standing over me while I call vendors. There really isn't much for them to do except provide moral support!

Re: As we approach closer to the wedding

Mine ask here and there if I need help, but I really don't need help right now. But they are there to listen to my ideas and concerns which is nice

Re: As we approach closer to the wedding

My best friend (BM) has been awesome...offering support in as many ways as she possibly can. My sister (MOH) could care less

Re: As we approach closer to the wedding

my older sister is useless and prego, but she was useless before she got prego. Then my one of bm's got engaged a few weeks ago and is getting married 20 days after me so shes into her own wedding now and could are less about mine, another bm (my friend i've known for the past 10 years) is wonderful always asking whats going on, can i help, my moh (FSIL) is there when i need something, along with my other 3 bm's. so overall i can't complain.

Re: As we approach closer to the wedding

My BMs have been amazing -- planning both the shower and Bachelorette party from other states! They havent been around to help me plan or do things, but they are all students and work -- so I wouldnt expect that. They do, however, call me pretty often to ask how things are going, ask questions about the wedding, etc. They're all very involved in their own way and of course, with planning the shower and stuff, they're really doing a lot. I'm so lucky to have such awesome friends.

This is the way I feel. Plus I guess it's a little different for me b/c I only have my MOH (my sister) who lives 10 hours away and one BM (FSIL) who lives in Huntington and has been there whenever I've asked! She actually found the BM dresses and was with me when I found my dress. Love her!
