I will be a bridesmaid in two weddings next year. Both girls were in my wedding last year and I’m excited to celebrate them! However the demands and costs have been skyrocketing this month.
Bride 1 I am planning her destination Bach and then her wedding will also be a destination. She is my best friend so I really want to make this special for her. However she now has been setting out weekends she would like me to come visit her for wedding planning. Each of these weekends would cost a lot in flights and time off from work. She is now not taking to me bc I let her know I am going to watch the prices of flights, but cannot currently afford them.
Bride 2 has planned her Bach and Venmo requested us $400 for Airbnb this caught me off guard but I was available that weekend so I paid it. I just started looking at flights and they’re astronomical. Like a decent flight is $1000. Let alone anything we do while we’re there. Between this, the dress, hair and makeup, the bridesmaids catering the bridal shower, gifts etc this wedding alone will cost me thousands. In my wedding all they paid for was a dress.I just don’t know when to say enough is enough or if that’s even appropriate since it’s their day. I seriously financially worried.
