I'm really happy with two of my BMs who have taken on so much responsibility and I have had no problem but some of the others are a PITA. One of my cousins who's a BM paid for my dress when I was in her wedding so I paid for hers... no biggie. Then she calls me and tells me that her alterations are gonna cost about $150 (she's a big girl and needs a lot done to it). I told her I really could not afford it because this wedding is costing sooooo much and it was a really intense conversation. She said she could have paid it but a torando ripped through her back yard, her son needs braces, and she had two crowns done. Ok so we settled on me paying half and she would pay me back when she got her next paycheck. Well the week I'm suppose to receive it I don't so I text her "Have you sent the check?" and she got pretty mad at me for not asking her how she was doing and stuff. I can see how I could have seemed calase but in the end she said she sent it. Then later that day she texts me and says that her husband forgot and was sending it now. Ok whatever, I'm still waiting to receive it... ugh.
My MOH told me she could pay for her BM dress and then the morning when we were suppose to get it she says she can't pay until like 6 weeks before the wedding. So i kind of get forced into paying for her dress cuz i had to order it that day. She still hasn't mentioned it or payed me back. Whatever.
Last, my other cousin is in the wedding and told me she would make payments to me on the dress. That has not happened and when i mentioned it to her she says she is going to start at the end of May. So I have to confront her about that soon. Blah!
I know you're all probably thinking that I should've asked if they had the money to be a BM but i did! They said they did and the dress is only $150! I'm so sick of this! If i had to do it again i'd only have like 2 or 3 BMs not 7!
