I think it’s okay to back out of being a bridesmaid in some cases. Especially if it’s done early.

[@nybsbfan18]

If she's a bridezilla, yes.

Being a bridesmaid can be a huge financial commitment- parties, dresses, gifts, and even more so if it’s a destination wedding. If finances are tripping you up with your bridesmaid commitments, be upfront with the bride and tell her your excited to be part of a few events- even help plan - but you can’t be at everything.

Awe so sweet, when they are together you can call them the "Coops"

Imitation is the finest form of flattery…they’ll be a Cooper and a mini cooper🤣🤣🤣

No don’t wear an old boyfriends anything .. and most importantly don’t tell a new boyfriend in the first place 😮

My best friend at work had a baby the year after me and she asked me if I minded is she named her baby the same as mine. I was thrilled and honored and told her so.

And, your friend asked first, not just "announced"...

[@hollyiannotti4929]

There are ways to spell Cooper---I'd spell it with K! I'd give a different middle name too! I have a nephew named Jakob because I think a K looked more powerful like being a lawyer or a doctor!

If she's single maybe she can't afford all the cost. Just a thought
