My fiance and I had asked his friend and longtime girlfriend (of 11 yrs) to be in our wedding party. Since then, he and his girlfriend have separated (for good). How do I politely let her know that she is no longer in the wedding party? I feel really bad for what happened between them, but my fiance is closer with his friend than I am with the ex-girlfriend... HELP!

Considering the circumstances, it's quite possible the ex-girlfriend might already know you may not want her to remain as bridesmaid. In fact, she may be relieved to be let go from her responsibility since it will surely be uncomfortable for her. Speak with her sensitively and offer to pay any expenses she's already incurred or any balances she has on her dress, accessories, etc.

I agree. It is best to do this privately and to place the focus on this being in her best interest. Rebecca Black, Etiquette Now
