Bride slammed as ‘outrageous’ for expecting her bridesmaids to pay almost $400 for their dresses

A bride has sparked outrage after complaining her bridesmaids were angry about the cost of their dresses.

The woman said her bridal party agreed to pay for their bridesmaid dresses, but made a fuss when she said she wanted them to pay $250, which equates to $365, for them.

They slammed the bride, saying nearly $400 for a dress was “crazy,” and many quickly agreed.

“My bridal party isn't happy with me right now. “When I asked my bridesmaids to be at my wedding, I let them all know that they would be responsible for paying for their own dresses,” the woman said.

She claimed her friends “completely understood” and had no problem paying for their dresses at the time.

“But I just sent them all the details for the dress I want them all to wear and they all say $250 for a bridesmaid dress is crazy and I should pay for it, not them,” she said.

'Every wedding I've ever been to has had me pay for my hair, make-up, travel and clothing costs, so I'm not sure why they think I should suddenly have to pay for it and they don't.'

The woman shared her story with wedding clothing and accessories label The Brodie Bride, which posted the drama in a TikTok video that attracted more than 2.1 million views.

Many sided with the bridesmaids and thought $250 was far too extravagant for the dresses.

If you select a specific dress, you pay. Otherwise, give them the color and length and let them look around and then they pay.

“$250 is outrageous. I gave my bridesmaids the color and let them choose from Azazi's collection. Each dress was $150 or less,” one woman said.

'I'm really struggling with this. When I asked my bridesmaids to be part of my wedding, I didn't expect them to pay anything,” wrote another.

'I paid for dresses, hair, make-up. They only paid for their shoes!! I've never heard of the bridesmaids paying for anything!' a third commented.

'I think it's crazy! When I got married, I paid for everything my girls needed! And let them keep the dresses!' one viewer agreed.

However, others felt the bridesmaids should “get over it” and buy the dresses.

'They're not your real friends. $250 isn't bad at all, especially if you told them months in advance. Anyway, if you need a bridesmaid, let me know,” one user replied.

“$250 is a bargain, I need to see this dress. I had to pay $300 for a horrible dress for a friend's wedding,” said a second.

'I have attended four weddings and always had to pay for my dress. It could be cheaper than $250, but I don't think it's that crazy,” another added.
