DiJonai Carrington has a busy schedule and that could sometimes cost her the opportunity to be present at important times with her family and friends. The Connecticut Sun star player, unfortunately, missed the wedding of one of her best friends, a moment that perhaps will never come again.

Heartbroken with a big miss, Carrington took to social media to shower love on her friend, giving major props to her wedding dress.

However, having missed the wedding, Carrington also made a special request to her friend. She wrote that she would click her picture in the bridesmaid dress and send her, so that she could crop her in the bridesmaid picture.

"💔💔💔💔 🥹🥹 but I cannot get over you & this dress," Dijonai Carrington wrote. "😩😍😍😍 love you so much, Mrs. Armstrong. 🖤"
