What should I do about my Bridesmaids

Two of my BM's didnt show up to order their dresses and I have given them a way in advance notice of when I will be doing tputting the order in .Well These 2 are my cousins and they are sisters. Everyone went to ordered their dresses on Saturday and they were the only 2 that didnt show up. I really didnt expect one of them to come because she just had a baby. But she could of at least try to get her measurements in and find a way to have someone bring the money to me. But the other sister I expected her to be there. She is planning to go on vaction today and I felt that she should have placed her order before she left. I also forgot to mention that she is a bride to be herself in August. Everyone have financial difficulties and obligations, and I feel that if u accepted to be a BM that is one of ur obligations. If I dont get a pone call from them this weekend I am going to assume they are not interested in being a BM and just deal with the 5 I have left.
What should I do?

i would talk them first and let them know that if they want to be Bm's they need to order their dresses by X-date.

I would call them up and simply say, listen, the deadline for the dresses to be ordered are (date) and if your dress isn't ordered by then, then i am going to assume that you don't want to be in the wedding party so i'll just have my other girls.

Yikes, that stinks. I would let them know that you want them to be a part of your day, but that you're concerned that they didn't come to the fitting. Let them know that you understand if they're not able to participate, but that you need to order the dresses by a certain date, and if you haven't received their measurements and down payment by then, you'll assume they're not able to be BM. Good luck!!

Thanks...... I did speak with them and both responses are dont worry it will get there in time. But its not about that, I feel that this is one of ur BM duties and u should try to help me make the process stress free and smooth as much as possible. Just like u would want it , when its your time to for her Bm's to get fitted for her wedding thats coming up soon. She really gets on my nerves

I really appreciate your help Thanks.

Thanks for your response.

I did tell them that the date was Feb 10th. They both fell that they have plenty of time to order them and it will be on time.
