HI,
you're right to be a bit upset, you shouldn't have to chase your bridesmaids to respond to you, they should be there and an emotional support network when ever you need them. Planning is stressful enough without dealing with this so close to your wedding.
The silver lining is that now you know exactly where you stand, perhaps she felt bad or embarassed that she had agreed and then couldn't afford it - and didn't know how to tell you? I know thats no excuse. I would send her invitation as a guest and let her contact you from now on. You have enough to deal with, and it sounds like this girl has issues all of her own :p
It's very rude not to respond to you, but try to focus on the important things - you only get to do this bit once - enjoy it!
And best of luck :-)

Maybe after the 3rd glass of vino this evening (this is not such a good idea...)
Okay...after months of planning (actually he is doing the planning) we have about less than 60 days left. (I am not the brideszilla type) I have 6 bridesmaids and there is one, who has yet to purchase her dress...(I don't ask much) with this amount of time left, 2 weeks ago I "texted" (as this is her prefered method of communication) that I would buy her, her dress (as I know times are tough...) never got a response. In the same message, I mentioned if she didn't feel as though she wanted to be a bridesmaid, let me know...(no hard feelings...for real...no hard feelings...who really honestly loves to be a bridesmaid? seriously?) I just wanted to know...
Yesterday, I get a text while I am at work...I sneak out of the patients room and go to my laundry closet and it reads... "MY NAME...I am so sorry, I just can't, I can't afford it, my mom lost her job (mind you she is 30 years old and lives at home with her mother, she just got her 1st job, and loves the "tweed" like no other...anywho...) Blah...Blah...Blah...I am sorry, my timing sucks"
Okay...I took a deep breath, and I called her to let her know, that my feelings were quite okay...I am fine with that, and I hope that she doesn't feel that just because she is not a bridesmaid that she can not come to the wedding. Well 24 hours later...no response. And now...I am thinking...what can I do...to make this "right"? There was never a falling out, ever. There may have been a "drifting apart" hence the stages in our lives. BUT...come on. Seriously?
