I got married in October. And fell out with my best friend two weeks before the big day.

Why?

Because she had arranged to bring her 2 kids and I was being such a bridezilla I didn't want them there.

We fell out. We've not spoken since. She lives in the flat below me. Consequently I'm in a unhappy marriage, and missing the best friend I ever had. I know I screwed up, bit I don't know what to do to make it better. I know I was in the wrong. But at the time it was all about my big day!!

And no.., I'm not gluezilla... The venue just chucked some confetti on the table. It wasn't a lavish affair. I just think I've lost my best friend forever. And I dont know where to start!

Ok I see where the problem lies. I don't think it was that unreasonable to not want kids at the top table but I imagine she always presumed the kids were invited. I would apologise sincerely and see where it gets you. What a pity you both didn't resolve it before the wedding it must have been hard on the day.

I was maid of honour. I sat with my kids at a different table. Who says they would have to sit at the top table. I didn't expect it, didn't ask and the option wasn't offered.

That post says all you need to.

"Friend, I missed you on my wedding day and I've missed you every day since. I was an idiot. I'm sorry. Can we be friends? "

She was due to be maid of honour then wanted to bring her 2 kids aged 7months and 2 years with only 2 weeks notice.

That sounds pretty unreasonable of her, actually

She cant fix your marriage regardless of whether she forgives you or not. Is it possible you took your anxiety about marrying someone you werent happy with out on her?
