Melt down

I just lost 2 bridesmaids and my flower girl after spending 900$ in custom stuff with names on it and wedding is only 54 days away. I'm so pissed off cause now I'm down to 1 moh and 1 bm and fh has 3 gm and a best man. Not to mention the money on the hotel spaces for them. That's another 500$ right there. I'm so mad right now.

    Yikes that is so frustrating? What happened? Is it a timing issue or a fight issue? Surely something can be done to help?

    I'm so sorry to hear that. You have a right to be angry. Is there no way that they'll be able to make it? Maybe they can rearrange things so they can make it. Still 54 days...

    So sorry to hear all of that! Definately allow for some big venting time, get it all out and then agreed with the other ladies suggestions. Un-even numbers are totally fine as well. There can be lots of fun photos and such with them.

    I am so sorry to hear! This is rough and very close to wedding. That would be frustrating specially with the money aspect. Did they say why they backed out? I agree with Allison on her suggestions though

    I am so sorry to read that! So close to your big day! Did they give you a reason as to why they backed out?
    Is there a possibility of asking another friend or family member to fill their places? If not like Allison said, you would have 2 -1 for the pictures which could be super cute!

    Woah - I am sorry to read that! Just take a minute to let it all out - I find that although a big freak out with yelling and crying to myself and/or my FH helps my outlook on things even if it doesn't solve anything.

    Then I would say I agree with everything that Allison has said. Do you have any sisters or does your FH have any sisters that you could ask to be in the wedding party?

    I'm so sorry on you losing your bms and flower girl, especially after spending so much money on them!! We have the same wedding date and I would be livid if someone in my wedding party backed out now! Did they say why they backed out?

    Your sides are a little lopsided, but now you can pair 2 guys with each girl - which could call for some funny photos, however, if you wanted your sides balanced, you could have one of the gm stand on your side or ask 2 others to be bms (i.e. 2 that you wanted to have but didn't have room at the time).

    It's is getting close, so if you decide to ask 2 new bms, I would look at azazie.ca for dresses - there is a wide selection of styles/colours and they ship in 3-4 weeks. They wouldn't match the others exactly, but you do what you gotta do in a time-crunch.
