Random suggestion. Have two clothing racks in the bridal room unless the gown can be hung elsewhere. You don't want to be steaming bridesmaid's dresses anywhere near the bridalgown.

Wow! I had not considered this and this is not a suggestion I have not seen on any of the blogs I have been reading. Thank you for the tip. My bridesmaids dresses are black and navy and sparkly so I could see how steaming all of those dresses together could be a nightmare.

It was one of my bridesmaid's who asked for a second rack. Was not her first rodeo. They were all from out of town so the dresses needed steaming.

And the bridal salon will tell you. Steam will melt your veil.

Why?

Are you paying for bridesmaid hair and make-up? Was a little sticker shocked $200 per person before gratuity, just adds up quickly with that many people😬 Not requiring it but wanted to offer it if they want to be more glammed up, but now seeing online that’s it’s considered quite rude to not cover it for them? Maybe just cover one and they can do the other if they want? Don’t want to be rude if it’s expected but also don’t want to blow our budget… any perspective on the “norm” appreciated!

Even if they were millionaires I would not want a gift, but I don’t want it taken the wrong way.

I’m just really happy that I found someone who is willing to take a vow to spend his life with me and I’m so excited for that day :)
