Is there anyone not having a hen do? Like nothing at all?
I have been having so many problems with my sister and lack of her interest in anything to do with the wedding. She is MOH but as per previous posts of mine, she let me down on the day of me trying on and buying my wedding dress by not coming. She then let me down on the first seamstress appointment so she could see me in the dress by not coming (this all having an impact on my mom who relies on her driving her as we are 100 miles apart and my mom can't drive.) I have since found out she lied about her reasons for not being able to come to the seamstress appointment (turns out she just wants to spend all of her free time with her new partner) I saw her at the weekend and tried to engage her in dress talk or anything weddingy and she just changes the subject or busies herself doing something else in another room.
My mom was there and asked about who is going in which cars and timings of the morning and I said to my sister would she stay over the night before the wedding at my house (I will also have my 2 stepdaughters aged 11 & 14 who are bridesmaids and thought we could have a takeaway, do nails, put on a film etc) I need her there at 7.30am to have her hair and makeup done (which I am paying for) and to help with the two girls getting ready so thought it makes sense for her to stay the night before. She flat out just said no she wouldn't stay and said she would rather stay at home? I honestly couldn't be bothered to even push the matter as quite frankly I'm at the end of my tether with her and almost past the point of caring. I stayed at her house with her bridesmaids the night before her wedding. She can't even use her son as an excuse or reason as my mom already said he would stay with my mom and dad that night as they will be bringing him to my house on the wedding morning once the hair and make up is all done and there is more room in the house.
For all of the reasons above AND the fact I literally don't have any female friends I am thinking I do not want the hassle of a hen party. If I did it would just be my mom, sister, stepdaughters, partners mum, sister and neice and my one female friend (who has a newborn) and prob just a meal or afternoon tea. I just think it will be a massive ball ache trying to get my sister to either arrange it (yeah right!) or even turn up if I arrange it and being difficult with dates. I guess I'm just fed up of being let down so thinking I won't even put myself in the position to be let down.
Phew sorry for such a long post!
