Sorry to hear about this mess.
I can't help but wonder if there may not be a lack of communication and assumption between you two?
You as the planner assume she would be responsible for her portion. (I know I'm the planner among my friends) and that her failing to live up to her end would cause stress and undo expense on your end.
She may be the type of person who needs this calmly explained in great detail.
(a happy go lucky non planner?)
Go over the situation with her item by item. Airfare, reservations, time spent planning etc.(write it down, some people are visual) Don't hold back on the way you feel, but stay calm.
See if she has the opportunity to borrow the money, put it on a credit card etc.
Once she understands the gravity of the situation, she may well come through.
If she doesn't, it doesn't seem as if she is a very good friend.
If she refuses to come through (and lets be honest, she can come up with the $ if she wants to) post a note @ Cheerleading practice offering the trip to someone else. You & dd may make a new (and more responsible) friend who would love a trip to WDW.
good Luck!
