I'm sorry about your BM issues, and I know how you feel.
I'm getting married in Puerto Rico, so there is a greater cost involved with travel and such. (which is irrelevant because our one MOH and Best Man flaked)
I am a people pleaser two, but there has to be a line with compromising. If you want their hair done at a certain place, that's what you want, for $30 for an updo, I'm not quite sure what you would get
I would come out and ask them if they are seriously going to be able to commit. I asked my childhood best friend (of 17 years) to be my maid of honor and thought it to be a good idea at the time. She said she was good and was excited about it. I talked to her here and there on AIM, mind you she is in Jersey and I'm in AZ. She never really asked about the wedding, but the one time I talked to her I could hear the anxiety coming out in her voice about traveling down there and booking her rental car and such. Her mom was also getting into her head about the money. I had one of my other friends tell me that she is not taking her anxiety meds right and freaks out about everything. Then when she had lied to my mom, I had enough. So six months before the wedding, I had to force her into to talking about it and tell me that she could not make it. In the end, I just let her go and she didn't even realize the position she put DFi and I in, since we were spitting a house.
Just remember that if they are giving you issues now, you have a long way to go until you get to your wedding, you want someone standing with you that is going to be supportive and care about you. Not sit there and talk behind your back. If they don't have the money, they don't have the money. You could still invite them to the wedding, but maybe the responsibility of being in the bridal party is too much.
Okay, I'm stepping off my soapbox. It is your decision in the end. We just want you to be happy.
