@ehBeth,
Thanks for the replies. It wasn't about this one thing with the dress appointment. There is more to it. Just an overall lack of excitement or care by her family as they are too caught up in their own issues. I don't think she feels comfortable saying "hey, you guys aren't into this with me, please ask me if I need anything". She doesn't really complain about it, I just see it on her face. She only mentioned it one time to me. I notice it though and I hate seeing her unhappy.
As an update, I did reach out to the sister who was very responsive and apologized and admitted that she was so pre-occupied with her own life that she was neglecting her sister. By me bringing it up to her, she remembered her own wedding and how much her sister helped her and showed excitement. She promised to put in effort and make it special for her sister, we'll see how it goes. Thanks again.
