bridesmaids pay for their dresses?

Original post by itsbouttime

i'm recently engaged and just starting the planning. I'm the first out of most of my friends, so i'm learning! i've read in some mags that the bride should at least help pay for the bridesmaid dresses? is this true?

I also paid for every single ugly BM dress I ever had to wear
My BMs are paying, most of them got married already, and are now returning the favor. I got them dresses all reasonably priced anyway. I am though buying their jewlery.

I totally agree w/ Lizlen! I've been in 5 weddings where i've spent a fortune on dresses, shoes, gifts, travel expenses, etc... so now it's their turn!

I also had to pay for the BM dresses I always had to wear. I did shop around & tried to find something that wasn't too expensive.

I wish I could but I can't afford too But I don't think they would expect you to..

Just wanted to add that I am paying for their jewlery and nails too so it's not like they have to pay for EVERYTHING.
