Traditionally, does the bride pay for the bridesmaid robes?

I don't know what industry you work in but that doesn't sound like any kind of company I would want to work for. "Bare legs crossed"?? The harlots!

View Quoted Comment Hi Judith! I appreciate you sharing your experience. It gave me insight that I never even thought of. I talked to my fiance about it. If anything, his sister (who is my bm) would be the most conservative one. We are staying in a hotel out of town to get ready. I now plan to ask them if they feel comfortable. I can give them their gifts before the wedding day and if they don't want them then I can just return them.


The pictures don't have to be posted on social media. If anything, they can be kept as memories.
Many jobs nowadays do go on social media to look into a potential new hire. Some organizations are more strict than others. But, at the moment, all of my accounts are private.

But she does make sense. It may not even be a job, it can be members of your church. I personally don't think it's a big deal, but everyone is different. Just because I'm the bride doesn't mean I can force something on the group because what if they don't feel comfortable with it? When in doubt, ask.

I hope I'm not coming across harshly in this thread but this is something that got me a little fired up. A company that refuses to hire a woman because she bared her legs, or because of a getting ready photo on social media, is a trash company. It's not like she made a porn movie, or even did a boudoir shoot. Getting ready robe photos are completely innocuous, and the idea that women should have to be careful or wary of stuff like this is a larger social problem that I don't think we should be perpetuating.

I agree with "when in doubt, ask", but this wouldn't be something I would be in doubt about.

If you want a certain look, then yes you must supply it.

This should be the bride’s responsibility unless they offer to buy their own. But any extras like this should be bought by you
