This brings back fun memories of the last wedding I was in. The MOH was horrible. She actually didnt ask any of us for advice, she asked each of us to pitch in 50 bucks for decorations for the shower and bachelorette party gifts. Well the shower was actually hosted by the groom's family and they were the ones who sent out the invitation, decorated, bought the cake, etc. She didnt do SQUAT. Then for the bachelorette party, she didnt even buy the bride any drinks, the gift we gave the bride was a plastic tiara, a plastic shot glass, some paper plates and napkins that said "Bachelorette Party" on them, and a balloon. Now I'm still trying to figure out where the $50 x 4 bridesmaids was spent. Oh I should also mention she showed up late the day of the wedding, didnt help the bride get ready because she decided to stay at her bf's, and one of the church ladies had to run down the aisle to fix the bride's train twice because MOH just stood there.

Anyway good luck to you, I'm starting to feel there is a power trip that gets to some MOH and they sometimes forget why they are MOH. Honestly I just say continue doing what you're doing and try and keep calm for the bride's sake. After all, your friends with her not the MOH and you dont want the bride getting upset at you either for complaining about her MOH too much. I hope that came out right but my point is I think you're justified in being hurt and upset but the bride is still friends with this girl for whatever reason and wanted her as MOH so there isnt much you can do in that respect. Chin up! August will be here before you know it and just know that the bride deep down knows and appreciates how much you are doing for her while her MOH is away.
