Good morning!!
i get married in 5 days!! It still doesn't feel real ha.
anyway I offered to buy my BMs shoes when they first got their dresses. In fact it wasn't an offer it was more of "found these shoes *pic* what size are you?" Majority were thrilled,shoe sizes given and off I went to buy them, however, one said she had shoes already that were practically the same so can she wear them? Seen as though they were practically the same and it saved me £35 I thought why not?
10 days before the wedding she texts me to tell me they don't fit anymore. At this point we've spent the budget and are struggling ourselves as we had forgotten a couple of bits so we had to pay them out of our wage. So I didn't offer to buy the shoes or give her the money, she should've tried on her shoes when I offered to buy her some!
anyway she text me yesterday to say she had bought some shoes.... FLIPFLOPS.
now I know they're wearing floor length dresses but I still bought lovely shoes for the rest of my BMs because when they walk you can see them etc.
another BM questioned what we bought her as a gift as, in her words, "you have to buy your bridesmaid a gift" yep, we only paid for her hair, makeup, dress, trials, shoes, flowers, hair pieces and jewellry plus a £30 necklace that was their gift but I'd give it them in the morning. OH told her she was getting a necklace (she knew about it) and she said "yeah but you've got to get me a gift for the speeches" well I was dumbfounded. In the next breath she said "but I'm not buying you a gift or giving you any money for your wedding" now you might think this is a 5 year old saying this, but no, try 27 years old.
Am I just taking little things to heart??
