My bridesmaid experience wasn't too bad, compared to some here.
It was for my husband's brother & his woman, who I had only just met when they started dating. 6 months later they wanna get married fast & I'm asked to be a bridesmaid. Fine. I get along okay with her. Well, her Maid of Honor best friend is suddenly "too busy" and I get to go shopping with bride for her dress. And invitaions, and guestbook & flowers, etc, etc. I help do all the planning, including the bachelorette party. I spend all my free time with all the little crafty things (like place markers). Blah!
I end up doing all the work & Maid of Honor shows up at wedding beaming. I could have slapped her.
End result...no gift for any attendants from bride, or groom, no thank yous. Divorced in less than a year.
If asked again I will politely decline.
