Bridesmaid Backed Out

Chelsea, on February 8, 2021 at 2:52 PM Posted in Family and Relationships 0 4

My own cousin backed out of my wedding. I asked her May 2020 and my wedding is July 2021 and yesterday she sent a text that its to much for her.

She blamed me and told me I don't involve her. I have a group text and keep everyone in the loop. I made a fb page and also share DYI or wedding decor that I need help with.

Due to covid haven't had any get togethers well I finally did one as we are 5 months out from the wedding and I have alot of DYI projects and wanted to see what day or when people can help me do decor or who wants to help do what for the shower to help my matron of honor. I sent a 2 week invite. Nothing. Sent a day before reminder. Nothing. Like I just atleast respect me to give me a 2 second text that you cant make it. Her two sisters came like i bet one of them even asked her so she played dumb saying she doesnt read the group text!

She blamed me and told me I dont include her in things! WHAT lol like I cant pull your teeth on when you want to be involved! Sorry my friend might no more because she hangs out with me and ask! Sorry my out of town bridesmaid might know more because SHE CALLS!

Anytime my matron of honor brought up something wedding related my cousin would run to me complaining about her.

    Sounds like your cousin may be little jealous?

    I get why you are upset but you have too many things to focus on right now to be having her throw a wrench in the plan. You will have all the time in the world after the wedding to tell her really how you felt about everything. I also woudl very much show her that she was included and its on her that she felt differently.

    As much as this stinks, it sounds like it was for the better! While bridesmaids don't have any responsibility but to wear the dress you choose and to show up, she could at least read the group texts and not complain about you not communicating. Seems like she wanted the MOH position and may be acting out because she's jealous? At least this happened 5 months out and not closer to your wedding!

    Oh no. I'm sorry love. I agree with others. This is probably a blessing in disguise
