I got married 2 years ago, and my bridesmaids were all from different states, and the wedding wasn't even in my home town! I sent a swatch of the color of the tulle swag we were using, and asked them to find a dress that they liked, knee to tea length, and silver shoes. I took care of their jewelry. I was able to get a block of rooms at a very reasonable hotel, and we all agreed that a simple girls night dinner was better than an extravaganza. As we chatted, we discovered that none of the bridesmaids spent more than $400 total, and I was thrilled to hear it!

I've been a bridesmaid several times, and trust me, I didn't have to travel to any of them and STILL spent well over $500 each time! An inconsiderate bride doesn't make for lasting friendships.
