Are you paying for your bridesmaids dresses?

Not having any bridesmaids, but if I were having them, the answer would be no. I think now its kind of understood that if you are asked, you kind of foot the bill. Every time I have been a bridesmaid that is how it has been. I have never had a bride offer to pick up the tab!

I have paid for my bridesmaid dresses, there are 4 of them. They are from David's Bridal and were $79 plus tax. They will be paying for any alternations. I also will be buying them a gift. I feel since I am asking them to pay so much to fly to the destination it would be a nice gesture. However I have been in 3 weddings where I had to pay for the gowns and had no issue in do so as it is standard practice. I say what ever you choose to do will be great!

My friend got married a year ago and I loved her bridesmaid dress. Since the same people are in my wedding (her sister and another mutual friend) we are going to reuse the dresses for my wedding. The plus is that the only people that really know or have seen the dress is them since we are not have the same people attend my wedding.

 

I gave my friend that got married last year my dress and she will need to get it altered but I plan on paying for the alterations. The dress is a pool colored strapless dress that gathers to the side so very simple. In her wedding she had yellow roses and we plan to have multi color flowers for our wedding so even though we have the same BM dresses the pictures will look different because of the flowers (or at least that is the plan).
