Ok, I started this on the WC, but I would like to get some feed back here. We talked on the phone tonight like everything was normal, but I am still a bit irked...(sorry for spelling errors)
Sorry, this is a little long and jumbled, but you gett he idea. Am i being overly sensitive by being offended? Should I just blow it off and act like no big deal? We have been "Best Friends" for 10 years.
So, my best friends got married last week. I was her MOH. I wasn't able to do alot of things for her, because we are as broke as one can be right now. But, I did my best. I got up there, helped her get into her gown, took lots of pictures, etc, etc. The whole wedding was sort of ill planned (even though tghey have been engaged for 3 years and planningt he wedding for one year).
So, at the mountain top ceremony, after her dad walked her down the aisle, the officiant asked her if there was someone she would like to have stand next to her, ie. MOH. Her DH had a BM. She announced that DH step mom would be her MOH! I had not heard anything about this. She had reffered to me as her MOH for the entire time. But, her DH step mom was there for her for a lot of the planning. They bought her dress together (I wasn't invited), got mani's and pedi's the day before (again, I was not invited), etc, etc... I would not have been upset, except that she NEVER told me she had decided to switch. I went to the wedding under the impression that I would be her MOH. I mean, we had talked about me being her MOH just a few days before the wedding. If I had known, it would be no big deal...
Her DH's family had rented a big house up there in Tahoe where they all stayed. My best friend knew I didn't have the money to come up early and pay for my own lodging, as well as the fact that I have a 2 year old who would need to be watched while I was away. She never invited us to stay at this house they(her DH's family) had rented, although at the reception, her DH's grandma announced to everyone they had plenty of extra rooms if anyone wanted to stay the night after the wedding (I had to go to work the next day).
Aaaanyway, she treated me and her family like crap at the ceremony and spent all her time with her DH's family (they have more money). She casually thanked her mom for the gift of a cappucino maker, but started crying when she recieved her IL's gift of cash, jumped up and hugged tham both. It was just all bad and I am still hurting from it...
