People backing out of promise to pay at last minute

All along people have been telling us that they will take care of certain things for our wedding. I have an older friend that I have known for 14 years. She considers herself like a second mom to me. She used to be the head baker at a large grocery chain down here and she also used to bake cakes on the side. She has been telling me for 14 years “when you get married I will do your wedding cake for you!” Every time I would get a boyfriend, even if he wasn’t serious she would say “I’m doing the wedding cake!” Now I’m getting married and 3 weeks before the wedding she says “I can’t do the wedding cake.” She even went on to say that since it’s so close to the holidays I may want to get my cake order into a baker early. Not to mention that its only 3 weeks before the wedding!! So, I came up with another person to do the cake. It’s an extra $200 that wasn’t budgeted for. Now here it is 3 days before the wedding. We are just doing a small garden wedding with the invited people going to a nice restaurant afterward. My mom insisted on paying for it. She said it was something that she wanted to do for us. I have $400 that my dad gave us for a dj that we are holding. We aren’t using a dj so I saved it to put on the restaurant bill. I expect the restaurant bill to be between $600 and $700. My mom tells me this morning that she only has an extra $100 to put toward the restaurant bill. It’s going to be more than $500! So I guess that is extra money that wasn’t budgeted for that my fiancé and I have to come up with. If I knew about all the extra’s that were outside of the budget then there are certain things I wouldn’t have bought along the way. Rose petals for under the tree. A new dress for the bridal shower (that my great aunt said she would buy but also backed out at the last minute.) I would’ve done away with the thumb print guest book. All those little extra’s add up and I figured they were covered. Ive said it before and I will say it again….I wish we had just gone to Vegas!!!
