Bridal Party Weird Drama help !

Destine, on June 5, 2022 at 12:32 AM Posted in Community Conversations 0 3



This is a tricky question.. I have 6 bridesmaids and my fiancé 6 groomsmen. I like things even idk that’s just me so I have my best friend as my maid of honor my 1st cousin who I speak with everyday as my matron of honor and then my two childhood friends and two of my sisters. So to the question I have another cousin I grew up close with and love dearly but as we got older our interests and places in life are pretty different. We grew different directions which is fine I still see her from time to time and we have great conversations and she’s an amazing cousin but she keeps asking like “oh who’s your bridesmaids” and even asked my older sister and it’s making it really awkward that she is not one and I know she’s like expecting to be one. Is there a nice way to be like hey you’re not in the wedding. On the other hand I find it very weird to keep being asked and I would NEVER put anyone in that position nor would I expect to be in a wedding no matter the relation of the person.
Sorry for the long post I appreciate ANY input❤️

    I don’t think you have to go out of your way to address. The more she keeps asking, just tell her the same thing. She will figure it out. If she asks why she’s not in it, just be honest.

    I don't think there's a nice way to tell her she's not a bridesmaid if she's expecting it , because she will be upset no matter what.
    I would only be honest and tell her why if she keeps asking.
    Just remember you're not in the wrong: no one gets an automatic bridesmaid/groomsman/MOH ticket .

    I agree you don't have to go out of your way to address it but is there another special role she can play like do a reading or poems at the ceremony. Good luck!
