Spinoff to BM dresses (cappygirl post)

I'm only having (2) girls in the BP, my sis (MOH) and my bff (BM). Since it's such a small BP, should I just pay for their dresses? TIA...

Thats personal preference. If it were me, I would pay have, and buy the accesories...

Its your choice but if it were me I would pay for them being that there is only two of them.

Thanks ladies- I think I would feel better buying everything...Now I just have to break the news to MOB, who cringes everytime I spend $$$...

You're all very generous... but i don't think it would even occur to me to pay.... and even if it did occur to me, in the end, I don't think I would...hope I don't come off as a *****, but my question is 'why would you?' They'd have to pay for it if there were more girls... why shouldn't they pay if there's only two of them... you have enough expenses and this is an obligation that goes along with accepting the invitation to be in someon's BP... two girls or 20 girls.... that JMO...

You know what, I am paying for 2 of the girls dresses but not the rest.

One BM is in rehab in CA - obviously not working - but doing the right thing for her life and will have to pay for a plane ticket so I told her if it comes down to it that she can't afford to pay for the dress don't worry about it

FH's sister - lives out of state and is in a financial bind. Also will be paying for plane tickets for her, her husband (best man) and 3 kids. So we said don't worry abou tit if you can't afford it

The ones who live here are paying for their dresses - thats all they have to pay for & I'm not requiring professional makeup or hair...


I think every situation is unique but if I were you I wouldn't pay for there dresses just because theres not that many of them ...

Totally your call... if you have it...its a nice gesture. However, there is no need to. Maybe pay for their hair or make-up and buy them DOJ... so it comes across more as a gift....
edited for spelling.

That is your call. I only having an MOH (my sister) so I paid for half of her dress when we ordered it. I am also going to have to come up with something else since she lives in Chicago and will be travel to NY for the shower and will have to fly in for the wedding. I know how you feel since you don't really have a BP you feel like you have to do more for them.
