Read More Most of us are eagerly waiting to attend our best friend’s marriage, agree? It is a time to celebrate their happiness and new chapter, to be a supportive presence during this major life event as well as to participate in the joy of their friend’s journey to marriage. Unfortunately, things didn’t go the same way with a woman who recently stepped away from her best friend’s wedding after receiving a shocking email about paying a hefty fee to be a part of her special day. Yes! You read that right.
Initially, she was “beyond excited and honoured" when her friend Megan, whom she had known since school, requested her to join the wedding celebration. However, her happiness immediately turned to disbelief when she got an email detailing the cost of the “bridesmaid package." The email included a spreadsheet with mandatory charges such as USD 500 (approx.
Rs 42,000) for the bridesmaid dress, USD 300 (approx. Rs 25,000) for hair and makeup, a minimum of USD 150 (approx. Rs 12,300) for a bride’s present, and USD 100 (approx.
Rs 8,500) as a deposit for a bachelorette party at a luxury resort. Well, the expenses aren’t over yet, there was an additional USD 50 (approx. Rs.
4,200) charge labelled “miscellaneous expenses," which the bridesmaid couldn’t even understand, as per People. Shocked after reading the e-mail from her best friend, the woman contacted Me.
