Are expectations to high for a bridesmaid?

- Destination parties, is to too much?

- Requesting gym memberships, tattoo concerns, hair colour and style to match

- Bridesmaid dress, who pays for this?

- Is it too much to ask everyone in the party to become best friends overnight?

Solutions

- Explain at the start what is expected of the bride / bridesmaid relationship

- Is there travel involved, and can you afford to go

- Who is paying for what? What is expected financially.

- As a bridesmaid, be upfront about what you can pay for

- You can say no if you can’t afford to be a bridesmaid.

You can still be a part of your bride’s day, even if you’re not in the wedding party. Have an open discussion between bridesmaid and bride, and the end result will be much better for both parties!
