Whatever happened or will happen in the future, don't let this spoil your big day. Your wedding day is, like Julia said, about you and your future husband. That's it. The rest is window dressing.
And don't worry about your sides being off. Our sides were off balanced too (one of my bridesmaids had a death in the family the week of the wedding and couldn't make it), and you know what? We still ended up married at the end of the day.
If you want to deal with her later, fine. If not, that's fine too. But right now is one of the few times in your life when it really, truly is ALL ABOUT YOU! Concentrate on YOU and YOUR FIANCE and YOUR BIG DAY! Don't let someone else's selfish actions take anything away from the happiest day in your life!
I agree its your special day coming up!! I would worry about her after you have enjoyed your wedding day!! Suprises (both good and bad) do come up this close to weddings- its just not worth the stress to worry about them too much.
Have a lovely wedding!!!
CONGRATULATIONS!!!
well, as other have said, there may have been stuff going on at the old job that she did not share.. or maybe she has new boss that is causuing her problems.
the final thing is this, when i got married in thailand not one memeber of my family or friends came to it.. some did not have have the money or just to old to travel or just did not want to take time to come(and there where a couple that would not come cause she is muslim) However being a guy, i did not care if anyone came or not, ony person i cared if they showed up or not was her
. So ,jsut maybe even if she can afford the money , maybe it is the time she cant take.
I think everyone here about has it said! We had an odd number of bridesmaids for my wedding simply because DH didn't have anyone to add and I didn't have anyone to cut. I think you've found a wonderful solution in having his brothers both escort your sister.
My best friend and I were discussing a sort of similar situation recently. One of her sister's long time friends (I'm talking childhood) skipped out last minute on their other friend's wedding to go on a cruise her boyfriend booked. Needless to say the little respect I had for her in the first place went out the window.
Thank you so much for your advice/sympathy/support I let my self have one day to be sad about this and now I have snapped out of it, too much to worry about anyway!
