Need Opinions- Who pays for what?

The only person responsible for paying is the host(ess,) unless someone else offers to help. Why would you give goody bags and expect the people that you're giving them to, to pay for them? That's like inviting a kid to a birthday party and telling them to pay for their favor.

I think everyone going should contribute. HOWEVER, I think you should have been consulted prior. When I attend bach parties or showers, I prefer to be given a task rather than just financially contribute. So like "you buy invites" "you buy decor" etc.

What destination did you choose?

I agree with Caytlyn - you don't offer to host something and then expect money from people.

Technically the 2 not in the bridal party shouldn't have to pay and if someone decided to pay for goody bags they should be the ones paying them. I have only seen all the bridesmaids pay for their own shirt not other items, that was usually either the bride who gifted them to the bridesmaids or the MOH who gifted it to everyone.
