Unasking a bridesmaid

Andrea, on April 25, 2016 at 12:32 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 35

So I had wanted my sisters to be my bridesmaids in my wedding. I have 4 of them. The one is only 9 so she is helping my daughter who is 1 be a flower girl. So I have the 3 sisters and my future sister in law to be my bridesmaids. My moh is mad at me because I had asked my one sister who I haven't seen in about 3 -5 years to be my bridesmaid. The one I haven't seen in a long time and one of my other sister lives in a different province so I don't see them often anyways. But out of both of them i see the one more than the other. My moh who is also my sister is more mad about the fact that the sister I haven't seen in awhile is into the drugs and smoking. When we were younger I used to go visit my dad and 2 sisters every summer. And the one I haven't seen in a couple years, her and I were close when I did visit them. Any advice on how I should approach this and what should I do. I don't want to upset her or anything. But I know it more then likely will.

    I wouldn't un-ask her. That would likely end your relationship with her.

    You don't unask anyone in your bridal party after you've already asked them. If they accepted, you move forward as planned with her as a bridesmaid. It's not your MOH's decision and it shouldn't matter what she thinks.

    If you want any relationship with your sister at all after this you don't kick her out. Your cant unask her because you can't turn back time, at this point you'd be kicking her out and you really shouldn't do that to anyone let alone your sister.

    I wouldn't un-ask anyone. Why is your MOH mad? It's your choice who you want in your bridal party, so I would find out what your MOH's frustration is and see if you can work around it with her and your sister.

    Your MOH should get over herself.

    Hold up, you want to unask your sister as a BM just because your MOH says so? No. Just no on so many levels.

    You don't unask anyone in your bridal party after you've already ask them to be in it. Your moh doesn't get to make these decisions anyway who cares what she thinks.

    I would be more concerned with why your MOH is upset at you wanting a relationship with you sister.....

    OMG, threads like this make me want to bang my head against the wall.

    Question:

    Do you want your sister to be in the wedding? Yes or no.

    If yes, then great. Tell MOH to shut her damn pie hole.

    If no, then too bad. You have already invited her, and you can't reneg on that unless you want to seriously damage the relationship.

    Whether yes or no, still tell your MOH to mind her own business, because she is being rude.

    Also, this feels a bit trollish.

    Unless there is a very serious extenuating circumstance (she's making moves on your FH, she has a drug problem, you found out she spread rumors about you having a sex tape...anyone get the reference?), you do NOT unask a BM. Especially just to please your MOH.

    No way. No un-asking. Take note brides this is why it's so strongly suggested to not ask your bridal party too far in advance!

    How would you feel in this situation if you were the sister being unasked to be in a the bridal party? This is bullshit. You don't unask someone to be in your bridal party because someone else is upset they are apart of it. It doesn't sound like your MOH is really that great of a friend/sister to you.

    If I unasked anyone it would be the MOH who obviously is acting like bitch. How dare she think you would kick your sister out after you've already asked her. It's none of her business who is in your bridal party.

    It's not cause my moh who is also my sister wants her out. It's more of the fact that I haven't seen her in so long and that's my moh frustration as well. Also my fiancée also only has 3 groomsmen. Like I said my moh and other bridesmaids r my sisters. The one sister I haven't spoken to in awhile was mainly because she got kicked out of the house because of drug use and smoking

    But do you want a relationship with her, at all? Because if you un-ask her, you're ending any chance of that, probably forever.

    This question has been coming up quite frequently lately. The answer is pretty much the same regardless of circumstances. NO, you can't un-ask unless you want to be rude and lose the relationship. It's YOUR wedding not your MOH so you get to make decisions, not her.

    Either be a good sister, or be a bitch.

    Your call.
