Re: budget for your bp

I want to keep it around $50. We are going to spend mover $100 on our MOH and BM though.
Originally it was going to be $100pp but when I realized how much it would be ($1000!) I kinda feel like that would be way too much and we don't have that in our budget.

Re: budget for your bp

Around $150 per BM
But when I though about it I figured that they are each paying around 200+ for the dress with alterations plus 65 or more for hair, plus shoes, shower gifts, Bachelorette Party. . . . . It came out to be at least $500 that each BM is paying to be in my wedding. JMO

$25-$50pp I have never gotten a gift more than that in any of the weddings I have ever been in.

Re: budget for your bp

I'm thinking $50-$100 for each person and then a little more for my MOH.

Between $100-$150 on BM's and GM's, around $200 on MOH's and best man.

I've been buying things sporadically so it doesn't hurt as much

Re: budget for your bp

75-100 for BM and GM, and then 125-150 for MOH/BM

Re: budget for your bp

I've spent a little over $100/pp so far on the BM....looking for a little something extra for the MOH. For the GM's I've spent $20/pp, so I need to get them all a little something extra.

Re: budget for your bp

I spent 75 which was more than my original budget. I wanted to spend 50 but found a really great deal on some coach wallets which I thought was a better gift...
