A woman has taken to the Internet to express her frustrations after her sister requested her to be a bridesmaid and then asked her to cover various costs. In a Reddit post, the woman shared that her sister, Lily, had asked her to be a bridesmaid for her upcoming wedding. After agreeing, Lily provided a list of requirements, including an expensive dress and payment for hair, makeup, and accessories. Subsequently, Lily asked for a “bridesmaid fee” of $150 to cover costs for the bachelorette party and decorations. The woman was taken aback by this additional charge and declined, leading to conflict with her family members who criticized her for not participating. Some commenters argued that a bride should not be planning a wedding if she cannot afford it, while others shared their experiences of bridesmaids incurring significant expenses.
