Hi friends, I am a bit upset, I don’t really know how I should feel. I had asked one of my longtime best friends to be my bridesmaid and she learned she was pregnant a few months later. I was very happy for her since we’re very close! At first, she said she still wanted to be one of my bridesmaids and would be able to attend although she would be 6 months pregnant at the wedding. But today she just sent me a message to tell me she could not be my bridesmaid anymore. Her husband told her that she could not be a bridesmaid while being pregnant and that she should decline. I was very disappointed and I don’t know if I should insist or just find someone else?

Hi Rsahna,I'm sorry to hear that you are going through this. I agree with Nelly that you should speak to her to find out if this related to her pregnancy or if the responsbilities might the issue.

Talk to her she could have a high risk pregnancy, or she could be thinking of all the duties that she might not be able to help you with.

Awww! Thanks for the idea! I think it's a really good idea! Future baby ring bearer! I'll try to see what she thinks. I'm just really disppointed that the idea came from her husband and not from her in the first place.

I think the next thing I'll do with my bridesmaids will be to start making our centerpieces for our table if we decide to do it ourselves... but otherwise the next plan is bachelorette party, which they are taking care of! I really don't know what they have planned!

Hey Rashna!

Very sorry to hear that... I can understand it can be complicated for her to assume responsibilities at your wedding since she doesn't know how she's going to handle the pregnancy at that moment. Maybe you could give her another special role at your wedding that doesn't involve too much responsibility?

Maybe she could be your ring bearer and wear a funny sign like one of these cute little ring bearers

Talk to her, it's always a good solution

What's the next activity you'll organize with your bridesmaids?
