The bride & groom or the wed part? Im planning a wedding for this summer, and me and my fiance are paying for mostly the whole thing. We have not asked for our parents to help with the bill. But he is working full time and I am not employed because I am a full time college student. We dont have that much cash to pay for everyones tux and dress. Should we suggest they pay for their tux or dress, or should we offer to pay half and they pay half, or should we start saving now and hope we can afford all of the tux's and dresses? Please help!
 
Bridesmaids and groomsmen should know that when they are asked to be in a wedding, they are responsible to pay the cost of their attire. If they seem a little uncertain, politely ask them what their plans are for their dress, once you pick it out. Go with all of your bridesmaids to pick out a dress that they all agree on, style and monetary. Typically, the wedding shop will let them know how much it is for everything, and then they know to pay for it. If you have people from out of town, and they have to pay for travel, look into paying for part of their dress as a thank you gift.
 
Generally, the members of the wedding party pay for their own attire. It's always nice to help or pay for the whole thing if you can, but usually they pay for their own.
