    Hello All
    Ok Where to start. I've known my MOH for about 12 maybe 13 yrs, were we inseparable when our daughters were born as they are only 5 weeks apart in age. so holidays and going to each other house regularly, i started work and she started uni and things got less often.
    anyways i asked her to be my MOH as soon as H2b proposed she offered to buy the cake and then i heard nothing more even though i asked on more than one occasion, so i ordered it and when i told her she said 'oh great' i havent seen her since 23rd december even though i have invited her to my new house and to family parties.i have text etc... and coz i couldnt get her to come up i just ordered a bog standard dress size i've had the dress for over a month and she hasnt tried it on yet!!!
    i'm getting really annoyed now and my h2b is getting more and more peed off too
    help i feel like i need to ask her to stand down xx

    She doesn't seem interested at all to me..think you need to choose a MOH that wants to be involved x

    Try getting a meeting, if you can ask her if she still wants to be a BM. If you can't get hold of her then just send her a text saying really sorry but I think there must be something major going on in your life so I'll leave you be and get someone else to be MOH

    I'm now a married woman
    I have a gorgeous husband
    Whats to do now
    Theres no more wedding planning to do

    I would speak to her and tell her that it is making you feel bad when she doesn't get in touch etc and that you need her to try on the dress etc. Get it out of your system and let her know what is going on or it will just get worse. She can't fix something if she doesn't know there is something that needs fixing.

    Definitely see if you can either meet up with her or call her. I would ask her whether she actually wants to be your MOH, ask her to be honest. Failing that I would just tell her that you need her to be more committed.

    Don't give her the satisfaction. Can you ask someone else, someone supportive and actually interested in you and your big day?

    If you can find someone you can then phone her and thank her for the disappointment. I think i need coffee :)

    I would call her and maybe go and see her, have a chat but not about the wedding at first... make suer she is ok first and check that she isnt having any problems!

    Then if she seems fine, then bring up the topic of the wedding and see how she reacts.. if its not how you think it is,, then tell her straight and honestly how you feel! xxxxx

    you need to have a convosation with her and give her a way out it might give her a kick up the bum to get involved if you ask her if she would like to step down.

    She's avoiding you because of the wedding cake situation. She may of offered to buy it but her money situation may of changed and now she's embarrassed and doesn't want to face you. Just let her know you'd rather pay for the cake or someone else has offered to pay, that your really grateful for her offer but you wouldn't want to put her out and I garuntee it'll sort things out!

    aww :( i hate when MOH's dont give you any support... its not fair on you because shes ment to be your first port of call for help and support...
    text her and tell her how hurt you are and say that she is making you feel like suddenly your friendship is not important to her, if you were her MOH youd have been there for her... wait for a reply and if she doesnt reply think who has been there for you throughout the plans and been actively interested and involved and ask them.
    Then the origional MOH will have had an opportunity to look at her behaviour and put it right... and if she doesnt bother then you know where she stands and you deserve a better MOH than that! hope it gets sorted hunixxxxx

    i think you def need to speak to her. ask her if everything is ok with her as she has been distant recently and are concerned something is up and then ask about the wedding! if she doesnt seem to be bothered then, then maybe you need to say to her that her being moh wont work x

    I agree with MrsMelody, maybe there is an issue with money and she now can't honour her offer of buying the cake.
    Pop round to her house when you know she will be in for a chat about non-weddingy things and just check that she's happy/not going through a rough patch.
    She has been your friend for 13 years and she will be your friend after the wedding so try really hard to sort it out.

    I think you def need to have a word with her and liked stressed to the max said, give her a deadline if she's still not willing to commit.
    I'm starting to worry that I might have to do this with one of my BM's (not having a MOH) cos since she got with her boyf i've hardly seen her!
    Hope it all works out for the best for you hun x

    well girls i've delved a little deeper and she is fine... going out partying every weekend by the looks and sounds of it so i think its time for me just just say she can be there as a guest but maybe the MOh status should be for someone who has time to help me!? i'm not a bridezilla by no means but i rarely hear from her she text me yesterday asking if i knew anyone who does ann summers parties (she sounds very well to me!!) xx

    My best friend is getting married next April and she has a similar problem. I'm her MoH but another bridesmaid can't be bothered my friend asked her to try dresses on an her answer was oh I don't want to try it I am break it! What's all that about??!! She doesn't know what to do the rest of us have told her to not bother with her she has now bought all the dresses but she hasn't been bothered to get in touch. My friend has now said she is not chasing her but we all think it's terrible
