Hi. This is a semi selfish complaint but I still need some advice. I got engaged in January 2007 and asked my two best friends to be my bridesmaids. I set the date for May 2008 straight away.
In september one of my bridesmaids got engaged. At first she was great then she decided to bring her wedding forward to the month before mine. At first I was surprised but still happy for her. Now she has used most of the ideas I had for my wedding in hers - things from what she is using in her favours, to what she is doing for her hen night and buying the same things for her centre pieces. I tried to mention it and all she said was some things were going to be similar. Her attitude is that her wedding is first so I should change my plans. Now she has told me that she won't be available for the three/four weeks before my wedding and can't help my other bridesmaid. I've gone dress shopping and I'm always helping her with her wedding. This latest statement from her as really made me regret asking her to be a bridesmaid. I am now wishing I had asked my third choice of bridesmaid instead. I hate being like this, I keep thinking that I'm being really selfish and should accept her wedding is before mine but my H2B is not happy I'm having to alter things now and wants me to uninvite her. We have been friends for many years so a large group of our mutual friends will be coming to both weddings. Any ideas on how I can handle the situation.
