People can\u2019t seem to agree whether the cost should be left to the bride or if the bridesmaids should pay their own way.<\/p>\n
Taking to the Help! I\u2019m Getting Married Facebook group, where people preparing for the big day can ask questions, get advice and chat wedding tips, one woman said: \u201cI\u2019m a bit confused do the bridesmaids pay for their dresses or does the bride pay?\u201d<\/p>\n
Many have pointed out that the bride should pay, as it was she who selected her bridesmaids for the big day.<\/p>\n
One person said: \u201cBride and groom pay for everything for the wedding party.\u201d<\/p>\n
Another agreed and said: \u201cMy bridesmaids aren\u2019t paying for a thing. I asked them so they shouldn\u2019t be expected to.\u201d<\/p>\n
A third simply said: \u201cDefinitely the bride.\u201d<\/p>\n
Others went above and beyond, pointing out that the bride should also pay for hotel rooms for their bridesmaids on the night of the wedding alongside the price of getting their hair and makeup done.<\/p>\n
One said: \u201cPaying for everything, hair makeup, dresses, and rooms, don\u2019t want them to spend on anything that\u2019s needed, I\u2019ve gift boxes for the morning that will have their jewellery and hair accessories in too.\u201d<\/p>\n
A second bride-to-be said: \u201cI\u2019m paying for my bridesmaids\u2019 dresses, hair, makeup, bags and jewellery and the girls will get their own shoes.\u201d<\/p>\n
A third added: \u201cI had three bridesmaids and I paid for everything. Dresses, shoes, bags, jewellery and hair and makeup and I paid for the hotel stay the night before the wedding because we were getting married in the hotel.\u201d<\/p>\n
Others pointed out that there are \u201cno rules\u201d and it\u2019s up to the bride and her bridesmaids to decide.<\/p>\n
One said: \u201cThere are no rules, as long as everyone knows from the start where they stand. It\u2019s all down to what your budget is.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe paid for our bridesmaids dresses, hair, make up and room for the night, also gift of jewellery.\u201d<\/p>\n
One pointed out that the rules seem to differ by country but in Ireland, it normally down to the bride to pick up the cost of bridesmaids\u2019 dresses.<\/p>\n
She said: \u201cHere in Ireland the bride pays. I\u2019ve been in five weddings in the US and had to pay for my dress, shoes, hair, makeup, etc. But that doesn\u2019t seem to be done here.\u201d<\/p>\n
Others disagreed and said bridesmaids should pay for their own dresses as brides already face demanding bills and huge stress over their big day.<\/p>\n
One said: \u201cMy sister in law is having eight bridesmaids we are paying for our own dresses.\u201d<\/p>\n
Another said: \u201cMy bridesmaids are buying their own dresses as I just told them the colour of the dress and they pick the one they love, they show me.\u201d<\/p>\n
She joked: \u201cI don\u2019t want three flower vases as bridesmaids.\u201d<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, newlyweds are\u00a0all saying the same thing\u00a0after a curious bride-to-be posed an intimate wedding night question.<\/p>\n
The anonymous bride wondered if couples preparing for their wedding day planned to consummate their vows on the night.<\/p>\n
And many of the respondents had the exact same response to her query.<\/p>\n
On the same Facebook page, the bride\u2019s question was: \u201cDo any of you brides actually plan on consummating your wedding on your wedding night?<\/p>\n
\u201cI have my mum in the next room and my sisters on the other side,
\nI asked my hubby to be and he replied babe (you will probably) wake up in (your) dress, 19 years together and he never fails to shock me.\u201d<\/p>\n
The questions attracted similar responses, with one user writing: \u201cI plan on sleeping\u2026<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019ve talked about it and said listen, it\u2019s gonna be a long day so if we don\u2019t do it on our wedding night, we\u2019ll do it the next morning.\u201d<\/p>\n
Another said: \u201cI told my fianc\u00e9 if we don\u2019t, we\u2019re getting an annulment.\u00a0 But in reality we\u2019ll probably both just pass out.\u201d<\/p>\n
Many explained that due to the fact the day itself is an incredibly long affair, sleep is often the only appealing option, with one saying: \u201cWe went to bed at half five in the morning in our clothes..so no!\u201d<\/p>\n
