You may recall recently I have had a right bridezilla moment and flipped at a friend due her changing dress that was selected. Well another reason I flipped was that hen night wasn't being sorted. After the blow out my friends finally started planning stuff and now due to notice given literally no one can make it :( I work Sunday's and the weekend I choose is the only one I can get off before the wedding.
I only gave a few names think about 8 and I knew 2 might not make it but now it seems 1 is other is at a wedding 1 has been told by her be to keep free as he planning surprise for her birthday, another is going to someone else's birthday so it seems as far as I know it's me my 2 friends who are organising it, my step mum and mil and 2x sil.
I am trying to stay positive but feel like I will look like Billy no mates and basically it will be rubbish :(
Sorry just needed to rant to people who might understand.
Has anyone gone through this?

The ones who make an effort to be there matter, if it means changing plans for them they will

I'm personally not having a hen do just because i wouldn't have anyone to go really, iv moved around from country to country since i was little so never stayed in one place to make proper friends, iv got a few friends where i live now but not close enough i would invite them to my hen do so it would mean if i did have one it would be just me and my 2 bridesmaids and then 1 other friend and that to me just didn't seem worth it...but saying that it does all depend on who you go out with, if you know that the few you have going will show you a brill time then go for it! and the girls who aren't going cant be real friends if they are all bailing on you! xxx

Unfortunately people will make plans, and leaving it so late to organise, you can't expect people to change their plans to suit you. It's just a shame your bridesmaid didn't get herself organised and sort it out earlier!
I'm not having a 'traditional' hen do - I'm having a night away with my 3 closest friends. No idea what they have planned, but not bothered about having loads of people there, we'll have a good time regardless. I'm sure you'll have a good time with those that can make it and won't even notice those that couldn't make it.

I don't think it matters if you only have a couple of people there. It's not about having loads of people. I doubt I'll have loads of people at mine as I don't have a big circle of friends. I think it's nice when it's more intimate x

Don't worry :) I've only got 4 plus me for the whole weekend of my hen do, and others doing certain bits and not others. My original list was 12 girls so was a bit of a shock as people started with their excuses and dropped out.

Well my hen night will have some of the most important people missing. My fmil is at a wedding, bridesmaid is at a wedding and my mum is 200 miles away. However I know that the friends that do attend who may be as low as 3 will make it an amazing night for me.

Thanks all :)
I think what isn't helping is the book of face as recently old school mates have had hens overseas and of course online they look amazing. Think also due to h2b having such an amazing stag away kind of made me jealous too!
When I think of it I don't want to invite people just for the sake of it but I don't want my last night of freedom to be rubbish lol
I think the wedding stress is getting to me and this seems to be the focus point x
