I know we posted this question about a month ago but i figured after the we might want to discuss it again.
All i am asking of my bridesmaids is to purchase and alter their dresses, attend the shower and bach party, come to the RH, and come the day of on time. If you buy the dress and the next time i see you is at my wedding, and you have special circumstances, fine. What's imporant is that person physically being there on that one day.
If for whatever reason they cannot do one of the above for valid reasons ($, work, fam obligations, school, etc) then that's fine and i REALLY don't see the big deal of it. Everyone else's lives don't stop because of our weddings and we can't expect them to. It's a wedding day, not a freakin wedding year (or year + for me). If they don't do one of the above it doesn't mean they are a bad friend. You can't expect people to do for you exactly what you have done for them. Everyone's situation and lives are different and if people are going to be measured up to your standards then you'll always be dissapointed by everyone.
guess this also turned into a vent lol.

Re: What do u expect from ur bm?
i expect them to buy dress/ alterations for dress, attend all wedding related events (unless they can't for one reason or another obvi excluding the actual wedding), get hair done how I want it (i am paying so I can decide), and if I ask for help with something and they are available to come with me. (Dress shopping, fittings,)

I am pretty sure they're going to help me put together my invites.
This is a personal preference, and while I am not working my BP to the bone, if I need them to come dress shopping with me, help me bring things to the RH the week before, etc it'll be NO problem...
are you kidding? that's just wayyyyyyyyyy too much to ask of them. who do you think you are?
