Re: Did I go overboard?

well since i'm on a tight budget, i spent $40 per girl.

Re: Did I go overboard?

I don't think there is an average price. It depends on what you can afford and hgow many BM's you have. I think you were very generous. They will love everything.

Re: Did I go overboard?

Well -- you certainly gave more than expected.

I gave gift cards and paid for hair and makeup -- so I paid more per person than you, but had only 3 bridesmaids.

I don't think you went overboard, but many people spend much less.

It depends on each bride and their budget.

Re: Did I go overboard?

I think you did great as well, I ended up spending just over 200 PP and about 300 on my MOH.

Re: Did I go overboard?

I spent $100 on all my bridesmaids (5 total)
My sister I spent an additional $250--she is my maid of honor.
My friend who is my matron of honor I spent an additional $150 on.

The groomsmen we spent about $90 on each of them.

My FBIL we spent an additional $250 on b/c he is the BM.

I think you were very generous & they sound like great gifts. I spent a little more than I wanted on my girls but I got them alot for $100.

What's the avg. price range for BM gifts?
I got my girls a pashmina ($40), chandelier earrings ($35), clutch purse ($45), & a gift set of skin care products ($25) that Sephora sells to benefit the Susan G. Komen Fdn since October is breast cancer awareness month.
I hadn't planned on getting them so much (now that I'm look at my credit card bill)! I have 6 BMs.

Can u lend me some money so I can be as good to my BM as you were to yours??? LOL! They will totally appreciate it, I know I would.
You done good girl!!!

I was thinking of a gift certificate to Sephora? Is that tacky? I also bought them their jewlery.

Re: Did I go overboard?

I don't think so - A gift is a gift. You do what you can afford and what comes from your heart. You are obviously very generous !!

No, I don't think it's tacky at all - then they get to pick their own stuff. It's difficult to pick make-up for someone else.
