How would you ladies feel if your MOH decided to get married the same year as you??? Or get married a year before you but during the same season??

Re: Question???
Fine. It might be difficult for her w/things to do if she's getting the married the same year, but I wouldn't be upset. And getting married the year before you shouldn't be an issue at all, she'll be all clear to help you, regardless of the season.

Re: Question???
I guess it would really depend on when she got engaged, how close to my wedding it was, if I felt she was honestly trying to cause problems, etc.
If everything was on the up and up, I would be psyched for her and happy that I could have a planning buddy!

Re: Question???
I'd be happy for her One of my BMs got engaged this year & hers is less than 3 months after ours & I'm fine with it...really excited about it actually! Another friend & her FH (who we are GOOD friends with) booked their wedding for 2 weeks after ours. To be 100% honest, THAT bugged me a bit, but after a while I just got over it. The thing is, these gals are just as happy as us about their own weddings & they deserve the same excitement from us as we hope to get from them. In the end, we don't own the year that we choose, so there's really no reason to be upset. If it bugs you there's no helping that, but try to let it go, consider it a done deal & move on - otherwise your friendship may unnecessarily suffer.

Re: Question???
She got engaged 6 months after me... I just got a little upset because I am planning a fall wedding (already booked the RH before she even got engaged) and I just felt weird about her also doing a fall wedding. I know it will be different...but I wasn't sure if this was like stealing my thunder type of thing.

Don’t feel bad though! I think we all have our moments where we worry about that sort of thing…the important thing is you didn’t go Bridezilla and threaten to kick her out of the wedding party if she didn’t change it!
You didn’t, right?

Re: Question???
I thought maybe my situation might make you feel a little bit better.... my Fh and I have been engaged for three years and finally set a date in december for our July 08 wedding. FH's brother and fiance recently got engaged and decided to book for a MONTH after! Oh, and my maid of honor also recently became engaged and is booked for 3 months after me. I don't mind that so much as I do the very next month with the same family involved. I understand why you feel how you feel, but try to not let it ruin the happiest time of your life. And, I will try to take my own advice

Re: Question???
FH's cousin got engaged about 3 1/2 weeks after us and is getting married 3 weeks after us. Is it annoying for his family and a financial strain? Yes, but they will be 2 completely different weddings. Her and her FH are in our wedding and we're in theres. We know we'll have a great time.

Re: Question???
I think I would be ok with it. You cant control the whole year in which you get married. If she got engaged after me and married before me I might be a little disappointed but I would get over it.

Re: Question???

A year before and during the same season wouldn't bother me at all. The same year would also be fine with me as long as I could be there for all her events and she could be there for mine.

My FBIL and his fiance decided to plan their wedding (after ours was booked for 9 monoths) for 2 weeks before ours....now THAT bothered me...
still didn't say anything though- you can't dictate anyone else's life, unfortunately. Although, people should have enough tact not to do things like this.

I wouldn't care. I'm getting married 3 months after my MOH. At the end of the day it doesn't matter.

Unless it was my sister, it wouldn't bother me, people cannot put their lives on hold for everyone....it isn't like it is two weeks before or after yours!

Re: Question???
One of my best friends and I got engaged on the same night (not planned) and she will be getting married 6 months after me...I really didnt think much about it...but there is always that thought that I may do something that she wanted to do but felt that she couldnt because we would be having a lot of the same people...but you just have to go with it and not worry

Re: Question???
totally fine. one of my BM got engaged the month after me and got married 8 months before me. I was so happy to share in the planning with her, it was so wonderful to be planning our weddings together.
