Need Advice--BM Issue

Re: Need Advice--BM Issue

drag her to macy's by her hair and make her do it.

call and explain to her that no one's dress is being ordered b/c she hasn't and tell her that it's incredibly important that she do so...does she have her dress for her wedding ordered?? if so, just order the dress with her size.....it should be the same...i wore the same size in my dress and the BM dress ( i tried it on b/c FSIL refused to send her measurements to me....she incidentally called her mom and gave them...who of course lost them...just hours after I sent out the email that dresses had been ordered anyway....it fit her fine).

catch her off gaurad and stop at her house when you know shes there...and tell her she needs to go now! or give u the $ (if shes been fitted) and maybe u can drop the $$ off?! i know its prob outta your way but just to get the order placed! If calling ot texting isnt helping i dont see why trying that again will help. BM sometimes can we worse than a bridezilla!! i dont get them!

The thing is she just moved out of state. Macys said she can fax them her measurements and her deposit by credit card. I think she just doesnt want to be in it anymore and doesnt want to tell me.

The very same exact situation just happened in the bridal party I'm in this fall. The BM lives out of state and everything too and was not responding to any phone calls at all either. Weird! Anyway, this is how my friend handled it: She called her up, left her a message and the jist was I know your busy and I know you have a lot going on, I don't want my wedding to be an additional stressor to you, so don't worry about being in my wedding. Blah, blah blah. But she didn't say it nasty or anything. So then the BM called her and they spoke about it and everything is fine now, dress is ordered and she's still in it. And there's no hard feelings or anything. So maybe try that approach. HTH and good luck!

But you're in HERS? That's not fair...

If you think that's the case I would confront her about it, just point blank say, Is there a reason why your not going to get your dress and you don't want to tell me? I would also call her EVERY day and email her every day about it...lol

if she's not responding to your calls or msgs--sounds to me that she is trying to get booted out of the party. maybe she thinks it's easier to have you throw her out than her to just bow out gracefully.

leave her one last msg and tell her that if she doesn't get the order in---you will regrettably not be able to have her in your party. and give her a specific day to respond by. if she doesn't by then---c'est la vie!

I agree, times a ticking, you need to confront her on it. It's not fair that you've followed through for her and she hasn't for you.

I had the same problem with my SIL, she wanted to wait b/c she was eight months pregnant and we thought she didn't want to be in the wedding anymore. When we asked, we were surprised that she did (she was really acting like she didn't want to be)

She faxed her measurements and cc.

Ha, then her husband was the last to order the tux too, some people just can't get their acts together
