Re: Spinoff to Michelle's BM Gifts: How much are you spending?

Probably about $50... I can't really afford more than that even though I would love to.

Re: Spinoff to Michelle's BM Gifts: How much are you spending?

Okay, I spent $100 on each bm, then $150 on maid of honor, plus half of their dresses ($75) Plus half of hair and MU ($130 cap) plus and extra limo to take them and dates home..... I'm a sucker!

Oh yeah, I'm treating them all to dinner in two weeks!

I didn't include the dress and the hair and make-up- but my Dad paid for the dresses and he is paying for the hair and make up- he doesn't know that yet- but out of the 5 he would have paid for the 2 anyway ( sis, bro GF) I will offer to pay for the other 3- and he wont let me

Re: Spinoff to Michelle's BM Gifts: How much are you spending?

i have 4 bridesmaids and my MOH so for the 4 girls i'm hoping to keep it at about 50-75, my sister is one of my bridesmaids, so it might be litle more but I'm also most likely paying for her dress and shoes.

For my MOH I'm going to probably try not to go over 125

Re: Spinoff to Michelle's BM Gifts: How much are you spending?

I didn't budget this too well. With the amount of people we have in the BP I've only allowed us to spend $20 on them out of the wedding money. That certainly isn't enough so the rest will have to come out of pocket. Prob more like $50 each.

Re: Spinoff to Michelle's BM Gifts: How much are you spending?

haven't thought about this yet.

we have a total of 18 people in our wedding party (eek!) so it's gonna get expensive. but since that was OUR choice, I don't want to skimp out on nice presents.

ask me again in six months! hahaha
