I tried searching the posts, but couldn't find an answer to my problem. One of my bridesmaids has become completely unresponsive. I ordered (& paid for) the bridesmaids dresses with the agreement that they would pay me back. I did this to save them money. If I ordered the dresses online, I saved them $80 each, but they all had to be purchased at the same time / in one order. Because 2 of my bridesmaids (this one included) waited too long to get me their measurements, I had to order before they paid me. After I ordered, I called her to let her know the final cost. She called back a week later & left me a message saying she got my voicemail & she 'has news'. Since then, I have called 4 times & left two voice mail messages. I also sent a text message asking her to call me. It has been a month since she left the voicemail. There is a back story here to why I'm so anxious. I am supposed to be in her wedding as well, which she has moved 4 times in over 2 years. The last date I was told was July 17, but I have yet to hear anything about buying a dress. I'm wondering if the 'news' is that she changed the date again & can no longer be in my wedding. I don't want to get stuck with the cost of the dress and I just want to know if she's still on board. Should I just stop trying to contact her and assume she's not interested in being in the wedding anymore? Write a letter expressing my concerns? (She doesn't use e-mail.)
It is best just to move on as if she is still on-board, but prepare for her to step down. She knows she needs to contact you, so there is no need to contact her again. You may end up stuck paying for a dress no one wears though. There isn't anything you can do about that, unfortunately.
