Bridesmaid Advice..

It is still a full five months. Traditional BM things all happen in the past last 5-6 months before the wedding. I would say have a private talk. Express your regret at not choosing to ask her when you asked others. See what she says. Some people take it as a slight not to be asked when others are, whether they were asked at 2 years or 6 months. All they can see is, after others, I am insulted. But most people I know, if asked after others, but not at the last minute, will decide based on how much they care about the bride, and whether they have the time and money. The same as if they were asked early on. They don't get insulted by something not intended. Anyone ever involved in a wedding knows many brides have 6-8 family or friends close enough, but only can choose 2-4. So when someone drops out, and they are asked, they are nice about it . Ask.
