I was one of 12 bridesmaids in my sister's wedding about 9 years ago. Her wedding was gigantic and cost she and her husband over $40,000! My wedding is tiny (65 guests maximum) and my fiance has only 3 groomsmen (he doesn't want any more). I live on the East coast and my sister lives in California. She is 39 years old and has a husband and daughter (my neice, whom I love).We are not extremely close (7 years apart). I have my best friend as my maid-of-honor (who live 4 hours away), my other best friend as a bridesmaid (another 4 hours away)and I have grown very close to my fiance's sister (who lives 15 mintues from us) and asked her to be one as well.
I figured that my sister would not be interested in being a bridesmaid because she is so far away and busy (she wouldn't come to the bachelorette party), and to be honest, there were friends of mine that I am closer with that I'd rather have as bridesmaids, since I only have 3 spots and we're on a tight budget.
What do I do??
