When to order bridesmaid dresses?

You should order your bridesmaid dresses at least six months before your wedding date - this gives time for them to arrive and for any alterations to be made. You may want to wait until the bride or groom has their outfit sorted so you can coordinate with them and make sure the entire wedding party matches.

Who pays for the bridesmaid dresses?

Traditionally the couple who are getting married pay for the bridesmaid dresses but it is a completely personal choice. Some bridesmaids will offer to pay for their own, or you may suggest politely that you will cover the cost of the outfits if they are able to source their own accessories. If you're not able to pay for the bridesmaid dresses, it's important you communicate this early on and are a really clear about it.

How much should you spend on a bridesmaid dress?

As our round-up proves, there's no reason that you have to spend hundreds when trying to find a beautiful bridesmaid dress as there are tons of cheap bridesmaid dresses that are excellent quality. An affordable bridesmaid dress typically costs between £80-150, and if they can re-wear them post-wedding you're getting even more for your money.
