That is amazing. What kind of crap is that. Did you call her and see what the real issue is.

That's awful, I'm sorry! How long has she sat on this? When did you ask her?

That's just terrible and extremely rude.

You asked her b/c you wanted her to be a part of your special day without any limitations and b/c you feel close to her.

Want me to kick her arse for ya???

I'm sorry to hear that. What's w/ these MOH's lately w/ this not being woman enough to just explain their real feelings.

Look at it like this. If she didn't have enough class to talk to you over the phone at least, (and thats not even enough for me as far as an explanation unless your out of town), then she doesn't have enough class to be in, or at your wedding.Especially not being your MOH!

Good Luck Sweety

That's crazy. I can (almost) understand someone not being able to financially swing it, but to tell you in an IM!!
That's not a friend. IMO
Things will work out.

I think I would be more upset at her method of informing you than the fact that she actually can't do it.

If she doesn't have the money then she doesn't have it. But she should at least have given you the option to offer any financial assistance she may have needed.

At the same time, women need to realize that being in a bridal party is a position of honor as well as expense. The women in my bridal party (with the exception of my teen-aged nieces) are all women in their 30s, homeowners and financially independent. For some of the younger brides, your bridal attendants may not be as well established and therefore may not have the money to fulfill this obligation.

I am willing to bet she accepted because she was truly honored and caught in a moment - but then realized she was not able to do it. We have all done and responded to things on impulse - I know I have.

Ewww.. OMG.. How friggen RUDE!!!

Listen.. I have heard stories of a BM dropping out.. but a MOH.. and over an IM?

Sorry Jeanine. That stinks. It puts you in a weird situation right now. I understand her reasoning-believe me. Do you know of anyone else you would want to ask

OMG.. I cant believe that.

Re: My MOH backed out....

I'm so sorry you are going thru this. I can understand not being financially able but there are numerous things wrong with how she did this:

1.You don’t do it via IM

2.You don’t say “I don’t think we are as close” (rude & unnecessary)

3.You say no when first asked you do not wait



Listen now you know she is not a good friend, and now you can have someone who is a tru fiend will stand up for your on your wedding day.

I can't believe she couldn't call you. That's the least she could have done. Don't worry about it, I'm sure someone else will be honor to be your MOH.
