My bridesmaids and I have been best friends since we were 12 and we still keep in touch! I was very particular about who I chose as my bridesmaids.

I only had two--one a dear friend I've known since birth, and one my best friend since we were 14. I'm still close with both of them, though we all live in different states and are busy so I don't get to talk to them as much as I'd like.

I'm still close with all but one. She was always high maintenance and then I found out she had been texting my husband inappropriately. Everytime she sent a message he told me, so I'm not sure what she was thinking. But she ended up being a real promiscious girl and slept with our boss along with anyone else she could. I feel bad for her husband.

Yep, because we didn't have a bridal party
I was in a wedding where I didn't speak to the bride after the wedding day - it was a rough day ...

Moh was my sister and we're in contact daily. 1 bm pretty regularly and others a few times a year.

I was particular at the time, but things change I guess. I had five and still regularly speak with two of them.

Two of them were my sisters so... yeah. lol. My MOH is still my best friend and our 4th BM is a really old,close friend of DH so we are still friends and she is even getting married next year! I doubt I will be in we WP but that is just fine by me.

Close with 3 (my sister and best friends from high school and college) but the fourth one and I are no longer friends. I sometimes wish I could Photoshop her out of our photos, we did not end our friendship on good terms.

We didn't end up having our ceremony but I rarely talk to any of the girls who were supposed to be my bridesmaids.

I had 8 & am close with all of them but one...but I wasn't particularly close with her before the wedding, either. I didn't have much of a choice with adding her.

I had 5 and I am BFFs with two still, although I don't see them as much as I like since I moved away, one is my sister and one is my SIL. The 5th I wasn't ever as close with, but we still text fairly often and see each other every few months. She is making the drive to see me in two weeks

Yes - two were my sisters, two were my college roommates and three were my cousins. However, we're not as close to some our groomsmen anymore.

Still close to all but one. 3 of them were close childhood friends and the one I'm not close to anymore, well we just grew apart.

2 of them were my sisters, so I am still close to them. Another of my BM lives about 2 hours away and is really busy with school, and sadly we don't keep in touch as often as I would like. 4th BM lives really close to me and is more like my sisters BFF so we all hang out when we can. But TBH I am in such a different stage then all of them and don't really have a lot in common anymore. I need new mom friends!!!

My MOH bailed on the wedding/my life two days before the wedding, so her aside, absolutely still close with the other four, one by obligation (ha) my sister.

I only had a MOH, who is also my SIL (brothers wife). Technically we should be close but she is currently not speaking to my mom and I for some unknown reason, which is particularly upsetting to my mother.

@Rubies: Yah....honestly everything happens for a reason, but it still sucks, I lost my longest standing friend. We had grown apart in the year closer to the wedding (I was getting married, buying a house, settling in my career, she moved out west to be a ski bum and we were just in different life stages) She had a lot of shit happen on top of that and was in a really different place in life, got really flaky and rather than what I thought was burdening her with MOH things from across the country I just didn't bug her. She took it as being left out (and we failed to communicate this until the Wednesday pre-wedding) and had bailed on hosting a few things (shower, and then a low-key bachelorette) the last few weeks leading up to the wedding. After she showed up an hour late to take me to my bachelorette (just dinner with 20 or so friends, DH ended up driving me) I lost it on her and called her out, she proceeded to play dumb, next day "dumped me" via text message. I tried unsuccessfully to reach her the rest of that night, and the next day (day before wedding) and haven't heard from her to this day. Whew....haven't talked about that in a while....

@Beebug: HUUUUUUUUUUUUGS! OMG, I'm so sorry! That is just awful.

I had 2. One of them I am still close too and talk to weekly. The other one I talk to a couple times a year, but her life is kind of crazy so it is hard to get in contact with her.

I'm still only close to 1/4. I feel sad about it. One I never see and rarely am in contact with. Two are more like acquaintances now.

I'm still close to both of mine - I only had two because here in the UK it's usual for the bride to buy the dresses, shoes, pay for the make up and hair to be done and buy a gift for her bridesmaids!
