Problem... help!!

posted 18th Jul
Ok, i agreed to be inmy good friend Crystalswedding last year. It was supposed to be this coming October and i am the Maid of Honor... thats all great and dandy... then she moved it to the 20th of September, which is fine...

Last month i got an invitation to another friend, Betsys,wedding thats on September 27th. Again, thats fine, cause its a different day. Well, i RSVPed that i would be going.

Now, my friend tells me that she had to move her wedding to the 27th!! How can i be in one wedding, and still attend another wedding? Ive told both of them i would go already... and obviously im the Maid of Honor for Crystals wedding, so i cant NOT go. But its the most important day for Betsy too, how can i NOT go to hers?? They are both very dear friends of mine... and i dont want to hurt them...

Crystals is at 1pm and Betsys is at 2pm... should i be in Crystals, and just go to Betsys reception??? IDK what to do...

I would say you should go to the one where you are maid of honor... that's an important role in a wedding. You RSVP'd for one date, I would just tell the other person that you can't go on that date.. She'll surely understand.

Wow. This reminds me of 27 Dresses ... Haha.

But I would def first explain to them both what happened and how they are on the same day. And if they are close enough I would spend some time at Crystals .. and then spend the ladder of the day at Betsys. So, eat at Crystals and then go for dancing at Betsys.

I don't think it would be very good to leave the wedding you are the MOH in. Ask your friend Crystal if she can change the date. She's already done that twice. Or you will have to call your other friend and explain the situation. I know its a sucky spot but maybe send her a really good gift!

Tough call! As the maid of honor you are kinda expected at the reception. Talk to your friend Betsy. If by chance the first wedding and reception is over or you can sneek out near the end in time, stop by her reception. But I'm sure if it is impossible, she'll understand

I don't know why she is moving her wedding around so much. At this point it's kind of last minute. LoL But I think you have the right idea. I would go to Crystal's wedding since you're in it. Then go to Betsey's reception. Just let both girls know in advance what is going on and that you want to be involved in both of their special days, but as it turned out, you got overbooked. That would be a crappy situation to be in though.   Sorry you have to choose.

i had the date-changing prob with my wedding too bcuz we gave people such short notice... it sucked bcuz either one person couldn't make it, or another couldn't, or this that and the other. lol. i think this one will stick. it better!! it's only 8 days away!!! hehe.

She was the maid in honor in a bunch of weddings and 2 were in one day and she continued to switch weddings like every 30 minutes she'd go back to the other reception ... 30 minutes later back to the other reception ... etc. Haha.

I don't know.  On one hand, you are IN one wedding, and so are obligated to go to it, obviously.  On the other hand, you have rsvp'ed to the 2nd wedding, and should go to that....Why is your friend switching the date of her wedding around so often?  Especially so close to the big day??  It is kind of her "fault" that you now have the conflict, it's not like they both just happened to be the same day, wedding one was changed to that date after the fact    I think you kind of have to pick one wedding to go to, since you are IN the first wedding, it is customary for you to also attend the reception...I mean usually the MOH makes a speech, plus you want to be there for pictures, and generally you would also be sitting at the head table.  It sucks that they are only 1 hour apart, if it were like 3 hours then you could probably swing the entire first wedding AND the last couple hours of the second.  I think that you will have to go to the first wedding ceremony, and AT LEAST an hour to 2 hours of the reception, but explain to your friend thatyou are going to have to miss part of the receptioin DUE TO HER CHANGING THE DATE!! And you will have to miss the ceremony and first hour to 2 hours of the second reception.  It will be tight, but you might be able to make part of both.  Are they at least in the same town/area so you don't have to travel far in between?

she switched it in Jan because her fiances father is in a nursing home and the ceremony will be there, because he cant leave... but they wont do it past September 30th... so she changed it to Sept 20th, but then her pastor said he had to have surgery on the 20th and her backup pastor couldnt do it on the 20th so she had to change it to th 27th... its a big mess....
