Hi All,
In deciding my bridemaids and MOH it was not much of a problem as only 2 wanted to be MOH. I knew who I MOH to be as we av been friend since I moved to the UK at 11, went to the same Secondary school, College and always together tru uni.
However another of my friend whom i met in college wantd 2 b MOH but I was not so sure.All my friends have known eachother for at least 3yrs as I introduced us and we went together so we r all pretty close.
Issue is My MOH moved back to Ghana met a guy, got married last month and is now pregnant..so she may not come back to the UK.
As a result I got my other friend who wanted to be MOH initially 2 do it now. However this new MOH is causing so much issues that i want to blow up.
She is indecisive about what she wants to wear, emphasising that she has to look different from the bridesmaids.
As soon as she heard I was getting married she stated that she wants to do my hair and makeup (She doesnt have preofessional qualifications but is very good). I assumed she was doing it as a favour but HOW WRONG WAS I..she wanted £250 just for me. I got it down to £200
I asked her for a breakdown of the price and she included transport!!! WTF she would already be with me from the day before..to make things worse she wants me to get all the makeup and after using them she KEEPS them...the make up will be over £100 +.Everyone even our other friends and my family think she is being selfish and is just exploiting me as she does not charge others that price, and that I have helped her out many many times (she lived with me for almost 2 yrs, i payed for her food etc).
I dont want to upset her by telling her that I cant use her. I suggested she does the make up for me as a wedding gift and she went mad and did not speak to me for days so I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO.
I think I will look for another makeup artist but she will be very upset and may no longer want to be part of the wedding.
HELP PLZ..
