[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Dear SS,

I am so excited for your wedding! I am also really touched that you asked me to be a bridesmaid - it really means a lot to me. However, I'm hesitant to commit to the bridesmaid role, given the distance and the fact that I might need to fly out alone with DD for the wedding (and thus will need to be taking care of her for large parts of the weekend). Would you be horribly offended if I didn't participate as a bridesmaid? I'll still be there with bells on to share all my love and excitement - maybe just not in a bridesmaid role? Dad said you are thinking about holding it at the WooHoo Country Club. It sounds like it will be a beautiful day, and I'll be so happy to witness your and Bob's vows. Can't wait for the big day!
Love, Marla

So long as you two have a decent relationship, and she's a low drama person, I don't think she'd be majorly offended by that.[/quote]

Yes - this.

I think she'll understand OP.  You will try to be there but can't promise, and therefore you can't commit to being a bridesmaid, but you really touched to be asked.  That's fine - genuine, honest, and thoughtful.  She'll get it.

Don't worry.[/quote]
