    I posted on here a while ago as I had asked my friend to be bridesmaid and she didn't seem to be to kind about it. Well she seemed to be coming round to the idea and even came to a dress shop with me. I liked the second dress but not the first. I went dress shopping with my mum the other day and found the one. I text my bridesmaid and told her what dress it is, daria by sophia tolli. She immediately told me she didn't like it and that her and her mum like the first one i tried on when i was with her. What it has to do with her mum i dont know. She also told me when i first asked her that she would not wear the colour i liked, cobalt. So i came round to the idea of light blue and have now started planning this and tonight shes told me she likes the darker blue. In to which ive told her no im now having light blue. She keeps sending me links to very glamorous dresses in which she wants to wear. I sent her a picture of one I would like to have as i think it will complement my dress and told her i want her to try it on and shes said she does not like it and that its shapeless etc. I am fuming, i only had one bridesmaid as i didn't want the stress and thought she would be ok as we have been friends for so long. I now am wondering how to tell her i don't want her any more without of course falling out for good. I feel so stressed. Sorry for the rant. Any help would be great!! x x

    Hen I had a similar dilemma, my bridesmaid proceeded to tell me that she thinks our chapel is an ugly building and that she would hate to marry in 'that building'. So I told her i was very upset by this comment as our chapel means alot to me and my H2B.

    I was straight to the point with Claire as I thought her attitude to what I wanted for my wedding was disgusting and I don't want some one who isn't there for me all the way...

    Good luck Amy and I hope you will feel strong enough to make the right decision about who you want as your bridesmaidsxx

    Hun I am having an issue with my bestie (MOH) around her hair! I had the hair stylist over all day yesterday and janine said she liked her hair and then once the hair stylist had gone she said she wasn't sure! FFS I'm getting married in 2 weeks! I'm not having her dictate at this late stage! She had 5 hours to tell elly she wasn't sure and bl**dy well left it till I dropped her home!

    Slightly cheesed off!!!

    Stay strong Amy and have what YOU want!! xxx

    tell her straight, she is your bridesmaid and she will wear and do what you want simple as! if she don't like it then tell her to shove off, you'll only need to tell her once and she will do what you tell her.

    My BM's have been very well behaved and have done everything i've asked including what to wear so i've found it easy to deal with them, i just bought there dresses in there size and told em they were wearing them hahahaha didn't even let them pick i just bought them as they were the colour i wanted
