Bridesmaid help

Danniella, 11 March, 2025 at 21:30 Posted on Planning 0 2




I have 5 bridesmaids (3 friends, my sister and my partners sister). My partners sister is young so wouldn’t expect her to be involved at all, but I’ve had barely any help from the other 4. I thought planning would be a bit more communal and they’d help with decision making, we’d have fun bridesmaid days leading up to the wedding but there’s been nothing! They’ve hardly asked how planning is going or offered any help. I know everyone has their own lives and things going on, but as I am now only 9 weeks away from the wedding the situation is starting to get to me. I’m trying to arrange a day to get them all together to try on dresses, discuss ceremony logistics etc but I’m struggling to even get a response, never mind them all in the same room. I just wondered if anyone had a similar situation or if I’m maybe expecting too much from them?

    It’s completely understandable to feel disappointed when your bridesmaids aren’t as involved as you expected, especially with just nine weeks until the wedding. While everyone has their own commitments, it's reasonable to hope for some enthusiasm and support. You might consider having an honest but casual conversation with them, expressing how much their involvement would mean to you. Setting clear expectations, like specific tasks or a fun bridesmaids' get-together, could help encourage participation. Just like checking DQ menu prices before ordering your favorite treat ensures a smooth experience, communicating openly with your bridesmaids can help set the right balance between expectations and reality!
