I don't know why these conversations don't happen before you agree to be a bridesmaids.

I was a bridesmaid and my friend gave us a website with dresses under $100. She told us the fabric, color, and length and we were able to get a dress we could afford. We also had about 2 yrs to save up.

No way they seriously villainized a poor woman for not being able to shell out 220$ on a dress she doesn't like that she won't wear ever again. This is robbery

The embarrassment and shame in Krista’s eyes I felt so deeply. It’s really hard to want to be there for your friend and have everyone gang up against you when you can’t do what everyone else can. And frankly the bride as her friend had to know her situation beforehand.

My jaw dropped at the cost of those dresses. I didn’t expect them to be over $150.

They don't have to shop at wedding dress boutiques. For less than $100, there are beautiful cocktail dresses which bridesmaids could wear.

The sale assistant saying " it comes with being a bridesmaid, you need to compromise " when talking about the price point being way too high for someone is wild 😒

I paid for all of my bridesmaids dresses, and kept them under $100. I couldn’t imagine asking my friends to spend 100-300 dollars on a dress for one day. That just seems extravagant.

The price for bridesmaid's dresses are ridiculous ESPECIALLY when they are ugly as hell! Also, don't just assume people can pay those prices.

I feel bad for the girl that isn’t as wealthy. “It’s a gift to the bride” isn’t as easy as all that when it would take a YEAR to save that amount. Some people do not understand.

I feel krystas pain and I see her defensiveness in the beginning and disagreement because she was embarrassed she can’t afford it….so happy the bride was able to help ❤

Made me tear up a bit. If they were her true friends they would have understood her situation and not make her feel badly .

Shame on her for putting her friend in this situation on national tv

I got married 5 years ago. I knew what kind of color scheme I wanted. I also told all of my bridesmaids to pick something comfortable and nice looking that fit with the colors. One of my bridesmaids is a single mom and I knew that it was going to be difficult for her to purchase something. Not just for her, but her daughter was my flower girl. So I got the measurements for her daughter. I found several cute ones and had her daughter pick the one she wanted. Boom! Done! It was only $65.00. I also bought my bridesmaid her dress and shoes. I asked if anyone else needed help and they all said no. I told them all I could help if they needed it because all together with my dress and alterations, accessories, my husband's suit and shoes all came in under $1000.00. Every bride should be willing to help cover costs for their bridal party. Just sayin'.

I cannot believe that they all stood there while the girl in the lower socioeconomic stratum was overtly humiliated. This was such an easily dilemma to solve from the get go. There were 6 people (mother included), who all had prior knowledge of her financial situation. All they has to do, is to is divide the cost by 6, and contribute a small portion. And shame on the the sales associates for speaking ever so judgmentally.

Why was Krista speaking in 3rd person?

Can't believe the bridesmaids are expected to pay for anything 😦 That's unheard of in the UK. The bridesmaids' outfits are part of the wedding budget here

Here's the thing - if you have a close friend/family member who cannot afford the dress, you either change to a cheaper option or pay for it yourself. It is not okay to push someone to spend more than what they are comfortable -- it doesn't show their support to you to blow their budget. If it matters to you that they are in your bridal party, then either accommodate their price range or pay for it yourself. That said, you don't have a choice about what you are asked to wear. You can ask for certain accommodations for your body type and size, but if the bride decides a trashbag is the correct look, say hello to trashbag dress. Supporting the bride's vision is supporting the bride.

She has 4 kids? Are they insane, why the hell are they treating her this way it’s disgusting
