How much did your bridesmaid dresses cost?

Okay I’ve only got two maids and one matron of honor, and the dresses came from David’s Bridal for $450!! 😱😱😱 I was going to get the infinity dresses but everyone has it and I wasn’t happy with it 🤦🏽‍♀️ Then the color sangria I want I’ve been finding is either maroon or it’s fuschia! Is anyone else...

Is anyone else spending this much? It feels insane!! Please tell me I’m not going crazy and this is normal

    So I asked them as was suggested and they each insisted on paying for their own bridal gear. I told them if they want I’ll gift their shoes and makeup and they refused so that’s nice. I have to admit I do feel bad though 🙁 I found out in the states it’s customsry for the bridesmaids to pay their own, while here in Hawaii the bride pays for it. I’m sure tradition isn’t the last word but thought that was kind of funny after she said that

    There's no way that dress is 450 alone?!? Or all combined?? That's expensive... my bridesmaids spent $200 and were comfortable at that price point

    I paid $50 of each girls dress and with a coupon we had they all wound up spending only $85 each at David's Bridal it was a wicked good deal

    My bridesmaid dresses were about $210 each BUT I allowed my bridesmaids to choose whatever dress they wanted, I only specified the color. All my 4 bridesmaids are plus size and one has extremely large breasts, so they were all limited from the beginning in the styles they chose (due to comfort, and confidence in wearing the dress). They chose their dresses from the boutique I bought my dress at (their choice) and they all decided the one they chose was comfortable and flattering for their body types. I thought it was too expensive but if that’s what they chose and felt pretty in, then that was most important

    $150 for a BM dress is not bad. We only asked for $100 per wedding party member to get their outfits custom mine in my hometown in Vietnam. These are the finished BM dresses.

    No the grand total was about that much and I totally freaked!!! Like for three dresses?!

    end story for all you sweethearts that commented to the thread: my bridesmaids firmly put their foots down and insisted on paying their own and that the dress I picked for them (146&dollarSmiley winking was within their range. The maid of honor got very crafty and lucky and found the exact same dress on fb marketplace for 70
    bucks and she’s going to take it in LOL it’s a 10 size and she’s just a 8
