(Closed) Who Pays for the Dress?

My bridesmaids paid for their own dresses/alterations.  We all went together and picked out the dress.  I feel bad because it was so expensive (over $200 each) but we picked something that they could wear again, and I made sure they were all okay with spending that much money.  Ultimately that is why I went with black dresses. 

If one of them had financial troubles I definitely would have helped, though.

I think all situations are different nowadays, so it’s hard to say anymore who pays for what.

Its the Bridesmaid or Best Man cost, the bride has enough other stuff she has to pay for if I had to pay for my Bridesmaid or Best Man dresses I wouldnt have any.
