Looking for some advice my H2B and I are having two bridesmaids as part of our wedding and although one (My Step-sister) is being Fab and is really excited my other bridesmaid isn't being as nice about it and seems to hardly be talking to me since I asked her and when she does talk about it it only seems to be to discuss what were doing for the hen do! I don't want to sound like a Bridezilla and like everything should be about me but it would be nice if she even asked about the wedding once in a while. Any advice on how to maybe hint to her that getting involved with anything would make me feel a lot better. Thanks in advance.

I think you need a one to one chat with her and ask if she has an issue with being one. Have they both got equal roles or does the other have a greater role? Then maybe the three of you get together at times to discuss things and give them their own roles to do.

no they both have the same roles. Maybe a day out for the three of us would be a good idea. Thanks

Just ask her if she will do a job, she might think you don't want any help.
When I was a bridesmaid for my two brothers' weddings I sometimes felt that I didn't know what was happening or what was required of me. I would ask about things but didn't know what to talk about. Maybe she needs something specific that she can be getting on with so that she feels involved.
30th August 2014 was the best birthday ever.
It was the day that I became Mrs. Dixon.

I've changed the category of the thread to one which reflects what it's about.

Could just be as simple as jealousy. Maybe she thinks that's all you ever talk about and she's finding it difficult. Weirdly people see weddings as 'losing' the ones they love when we all knw it's far from the truth. Talk o her, are n effort to not discuss the big day and have a Girls night. I only have my daughter as Bridesmaid and she's 8 and she's the giddiest thing on the planet.

I agree, give them specific jobs to do. Even if it's just researching for suppliers or something small x
