Im having a rant as my bridesmaids are utterly useless! They were all meant to come up on Sat and not one turned up! My wedding dress is sat there waiting for me to try it on and i need one of them to put it on me as the corset is done properly! Theyve not even bothered to start planning my hen night so ive decided that i shall have it on june 19th and they can like it or lump it. im sick of waiting for them to do nothing! honest to god ive never been more annoyed for no particular reason in all my life. Not one has offered to help with invites, favours, they all agreed to pay for alterations on there dress's as i bought them but not one has collected there dress yet to be altered! calls have been ignored when ive tried to phone them and then its days later i hear from them. at this rate theyre all getting sacked and ill have none. huff.

thats awful, try telling them how your feeling. Its getting close now and maybe they dont realise exactly how soon the wedding is and that they need to hurry up.
my facebook status is ranting at them and they all just got a text saying if you dont come up to my house on sat of before and collect your dresses your binned and if someone doesnt put me in my dress in the next day im going to kill you all.

You need to talk to them . You can appreciate that they all are busy, but they're cutting it a bit fine, Maybe you can delgate jobs to them individually .

i had the exact same prob hun.. i planned my own hen night,, and i got rid of my bridesmades and im just having flower girls.. it just wasnt worth the hassle to be honest.. maybe you should talk to them and ask whats going on and say if they arent going to conrtribute and help you like they said maybe they shouldnt be your bridesmades (a bit harsh but its what i had to do) xx and 1 was my sister and the other my sister in law.. but i felt much better now i got rid of them.. hope everything works out hun x

CommentAuthorlulu83x
jay im going through exact same thing! im planning my own hen weekend as we speak!! and 4 out of 7 of my bridesmaids are not getting off their bums and sorting there dresses out..and the other 3 are under 7 years old so im letting them off lol :) my txts r ignored too etc so Im seriously considering just sticking to my 3 little ones, its just extra stress u dont need! hope it work out, kick ass timei reckon! xx
CommentAuthorkatrinatudor
hehe i agree with cupcake.. if they dont step up sack them..xx
CommentAuthorkatrinatudor
why do we all have crappy bridesmades??? and its horrible planning your own hen night.. i was not pleased and then to top it off most of the people bailed on me. =[ hope your hen night works out fine lulu and that your bridemades realise they are there to help you!!!! xx
CommentAuthorJay
this weekend may be sacking time. ive had enough and im fuming. really truly fuming! ive got so much to do and im doing it all my bloody self! WHY! I have so many people who really wanted to be my bridesmaids and really would have been greaat but i thought these guys would be the best. I bought them alfred bloody angelo dresses, which are gorgeous! ITS NOT MY FAULT THEY DONT FIT! im not asking for much for them to pay for alterations. I need help and i cant believe with 6 weeks to go im planning my own hen night, this should have been last week or something.
CommentAuthorkatrinatudor
aww hun take a deep breath.. ask someone else to plan your hen night? it will all come together in the end =] x
CommentAuthorlulu83x
try not to stress hun, it really is unfair of them to jus leave u hanging like this, u need to speak to them x and thanks katrina, i really wanted the best hen weekend with suprises etc, but im planning it from A to B so no suprises lol! xx
CommentAuthorkatrinatudor
ahh yea same here.. i was a bit bummed out but then i was just too excited about the wedding (even though i did cry on my hen night-how lame) lol
CommentAuthorlillylou
I feel so sorry for you, hope they pull their act together soon. Just sit them down and say how much it means to you, pull out the guilt card if you have to and give them a shove in the right direction with a few ideas. x
CommentAuthorlulu83x
cant believe u only have 11 days katrina!! how u coping?! everything sorted?x
CommentAuthorkatrinatudor
neither can i haha i think im coping ok.. gettiing a bit stresssed.. and everything is basically done.. except my dress.. but im not too worried about that cause i would trust the woman who is doing it with my life.. so everything is going really well!!! how you doing with yours? 4months left.. not long now, it will fly by!!! xx
CommentAuthorJay
i could do with having 4 months to go!x
CommentAuthorlulu83x
u seem really relaxed which is good! u should have lovely weather :) my planning's ok apart from rubbish bridesmaids lol, and the vicar is really dragging out sorting out the church fees! ive asked him like 1000 times to let me know the fees and he keeps disappearing lol...u never know he might forget to charge haha yeah right ;) xx
CommentAuthorlulu83x
arr jay everything will be fine..i cant imagine what ill be like with 6 weeks to go!! :) xx
CommentAuthorkatrinatudor
ooo if he does lulu thats just a bonus!!! lol and Jay it will all come together. yesterday i had no flowers still had to sort out favours, balloons what was going in the favours.. book my last fitting sort out my transport... i all go it done today.. i was rushing round like a mad woman.. lol im sure your day will be perfect.. and will be even better if you do it all without your bridesmades! it would really put their noses out of joint i think... xx
CommentAuthorSuzi
Have you had any response from them yet hun???
Do not disturb... Already disturbed enough!
CommentAuthorJay
one text to say ok ill come get my dress, one went im busy on sat so i phoned her and blew up and said youve done eff all for me, youve been no help all im asking you to do is collect a dress and get it ALTERED! THATS IT! so she was like well ill have to find someone with a car coz youll kill me if i dropped it in a puddle accidently eh. and the other one hasnt even bothered replying. RAGE
CommentAuthorvintage lass
Well, you've done your best and basically given them an ultimatum...be there or else!!! Personally if they didnt show hun I would tell them were to go (will be difficult but at the end of the day...its your WEDDING for pity sake!!!!!!!!!)!!!!!!!!! Being asked to be bridesmaid is an honor, something they should feel proud about....yes you will always get the odd one that is slightly more laid back etc but surely they realized whenever you asked them to be bm's that there were certain expectations that come with the role....first and foremost...SUPPORT YOUR BRIDE!!!!
Truly feel sorry for you hun being placed in this situation....keep us updated and we'll keep u right!!!!:) xxx
CommentAuthorSuzi
I agree, if they don't show on Saturday then don't bother with them!!! Pass the job on to someone who will take pride in being offered the job! x x
Do not disturb... Already disturbed enough!
CommentAuthorkatrinatudor
well you have had 1 reply and say they will get the dress thats a start,, the second one well.. i think if she spoke to me like that i'd tell her where to go.. and the one that hasnt answered wait and see if she replys tomorrow if not leave a voicemail and if she doesnt reply i think you know what you might have to do. you cant have people letting you down before and possibly on your big day! its should be fun and an amazing adventure planning your wedding.. dont let people bring you down sweet!! xx
CommentAuthornickymcc
i'd give the one who's gonna get her dress a final chance but id defo bin the other two ur worth more than that hun xx
