I just had to join up to reddit and comment.

Naww I feel for her so much. She sounds likes a lovely person. She absolutely deserves to have it all. I don't think anyone should judge her that she doesn't have any friends. Not everyone is super social. It's pretty popular to not have a bridal party these days, I have had friends who have done this, it does make it more an intimate wedding and a lot cheaper to. I guess you could have joint hens/bucks night that way you can spend it together. But I understand that she would want that special feeling of having it all. Especially shopping for a dress and all those things. I wish I knew her, I would totally go shopping with her and organise all she deserves and make it fun and special. Just to have someone care is nice. My bridesmaid decided last minute that she didn't want to be my bridesmaid, so I ended up choosing a girl I didn't know for that long, and I'm so glad I did. Even though I hadn't known her for long she was more willing to help me feel special then someone I had known for ages. I hope she can find some bridesmaids that will make her day special. Why haven't anyone even just done this for her. Like her or not she deserves to feel special. Please pass on to her that she does deserve the wedding she wants and not to give up and get down. This is meant to be a happy time for her and I really honestly hope it all works out. I have no idea where you guys live, I live in Brisbane, Australia so I may be no where near you guys but I would LOVE to give this lovely lady of yours a really fun time she deserves, but also support and friendship. Please feel free to shoot me a line if we are close :) I'm an excellent shopper and one of my best friends work at a bridal shop so I know they have stunning dresses there. ;)

She deserves to have it. And be happy to.

Sending loads of happiness to you both Cheers Elyse :) Xxxxxx
