Hello, everyone!
I'd like some opinions... I'm planning on getting my hair and makeup done by a professional, and was wondering if it's considered rude or awkward not to include your bridal party in the mix and pay for it as well.
I've asked some of the ladies if they'd like to join me with hair and makeup, and they've almost unanimously said that they're interested and are happy to pay for that if I decide to hire someone (which I have), but I feel odd asking them to pay for something when I'm asking them to be there on my wedding day and to celebrate with me.
Not that this matters, but the wedding will be entirely paid by my fiance and I, and we're have zero problems with that because we're doing this thing our way and are well within our comfortable budget. That said, I'm happy to get a package for everyone if that's what is customarily done, but on the other hand, every penny counts too!
I also feel a bit weird being completely made over while they stand and watch, but to be fair I have NO clue what is customary, etc...
I could truly go either way with no problem, I'm just unsure of what the customary plan is for most folks.
Any thoughts? What did you do, or do you plan to do?
Thanks for the help!
