Groomsman Didn’t Order Outfit

Hi Everyone! I just found out this weekend that one of the groomsmen never ordered his wedding attire. Mind you reminder #1 and #2 went out forever ago as our original date was supposed to be in August. He told my Fi that it was all set awhile ago. The pants are no longer available in the specific color. I’ve tried looking everywhere, but I’m also feeling like this is not my problem. All other attire and accessories have already been purchased to coordinate with this outfit most of which is past the return date. I’m to the point where I want to just tell him sorry (but not sorry!!!) and if he can’t somehow find the correct pant he isn’t going to be a part of the bridal party. I know this sounds harsh, but why should everyone else incur the cost to change everything not to mention my time wasted to replan something that I thought was taken care of months ago. Am I being ridiculous?

Ugh! Sounds like you are doing the best you can and good on you for putting it back on FH and the groomsmen. I'd be super frustrated too!

You are not being ridiculous. I would tell your FH to talk to him about it. If he can't fix it, then he can simply be a guest.

You're dealing with an adult that lied. Enough time has been given along with reminders. At this point your fiance knows that this obviously isn't as important to his "friend" as it should be. I would honestly cut my losses and move on. Its too stressful doing extra work for someone not vested completely, especially when it comes to planning your dream day.
