how is everyone handling the bridesmaid gown situation. Are you paying for the dresses or are they paying for their own dresses?

I always paid when I was in a wedding so I'm going to have them pay to be in ours

same here. I've always paid so they will have to pay for theirs. Plus, I have 8 girls and it would cost too much for me. Wish I could though.

My MOH, who is my cousin and bestfriend is from Florida. Since she will be handling a lot of the planning for shower and bachelorette party as well as coming up a few times this year for dress hunting and fittings and what not, I am going to pay for her dress and also for her daughter who is my FG. I feel that it is only fair being that they are coming up for other things and spending a ton of $$.

My BMs are paying for their gowns... I am going to try to find something reasonable though, and if any of them needed help, I would offer...

I have heard that some people give the dress as the thank you gift and thats a great idea....
