Bridesmaids are traditionally expected to pay for several expenses related to the wedding. While there are no steadfast rules that dictate what bridesmaids pay for, there are quite a few costs that they can almost always expect to come along with the commitment. Here are some of the expenses that bridesmaids are typically expected to pay for:

• Bridesmaid dress: Bridesmaids are usually expected to pay for their own dresses, although the bride may have a vision of what they will wear.

• Bachelorette party: Bridesmaids typically plan and pay for the bachelorette party, although the exact costs depend on the group. Some bridesmaids may cover the entire trip, including travel, lodging, decor, and activities, while others may split the bill with the bride.

• Wedding party hair and makeup: If the bride doesnt have a preference for wedding party hair and makeup, the responsibility falls to the bridesmaids. They may need to pay for their own hair and makeup services.

• Accommodations during the wedding weekend: Bridesmaids are usually responsible for paying for their own accommodations during the wedding weekend.

Its important to note that these expenses may vary depending on the wedding and the brides preferences. Bridesmaids should communicate with the bride and other bridesmaids early on to determine what expenses they will be responsible for and how they will split the costs.
