My Bridesmaids don't care

You're over a year out from your wedding, so I wouldn't expect anyone except you and your FS to be all that excited yet. You'll learn very quickly that no one cares about your wedding as much as you do. Since you've already asked them to be party of your bridal party, it would be extremely rude to kick them out just because you don't think they care enough.

They honeslty don't need to be interested. I'm sure it sucks and seems like they don't care but thats because...well...they probably don't. It's your day, not theirs so they likely don't have many opinions about it right now. Your wedding is still pretty far away. I'd stop wedding talk with them until its time to make the dress decisions next year.

My friends weren't super interested either until it was time to order dresses, etc. I thought my friends all sucked and that they were all too busy to care about my wedding but truth of the matter is they don't need to. My relationships with them got way better after I realized that. We only talked wedding if they asked. As the wedding got closer they were more excited and involved.

Yes, this has been my experience also. I don't have many friends, female or otherwise. My three ladies are my sister, my daughter and my cousin. Even though they are family, they still aren't all that interested at this point. It hurt me at first, especially considering I was very excited for my sister when she was engaged, and did a lot to help her plan. But that was back before any of us had kids, and before our lives got so busy. So, I've had to take a step back and realize that their lack of excitement at this time doesn't mean they don't care, or don't love me. They just have other priorities. They have all expressed excitement when it really mattered, like when we all went shopping for my dress. But the rest of the time, they are living their lives, as they should. Once I realized all of that, I felt like a jerk for my little pity party. Now, I just try to talk to them as their sister, mom or cousin. I don't bring up the wedding. The funny thing is that now that I've taken that mental step back, when I do talk to or see them, they always ask me how my planning is going. So, they are interested. They just don't have to be right in the middle of the action everyday until the wedding. I feel much better now, and I know they are there for me, even if they don't want to talk wedding day and night!

Just be who you are to these women, their close friend of more than a decade. I'm sure they will get more excited as it gets closer.

Did they seem interested in being bridesmaids when you asked them initially?
