We are still paying off our own wedding from last year, and we have 3 other weddings to contribute to this summer.
DH is the best man and I am a bridesmaid in one wedding, and DH is a groomsman in the other two. I have figured out that we could do a lot with the money we are supposed to spend on these weddings:
3 tux rentals: approximately $350
1 bridesmaid dress: $110
6 gifts (includes 1 engagement party and 2 shower gifts): $300
3 bachelor parties: approximately $300
Gas and tolls to NY state: approximately $100
Time off work: unknown $
I know we should have expected this when we agreed to be part of these weddings, but I wish everything wasn't so expensive!
