I've noticed on the forums that there are a lot of posts about conflicts between brides and bridesmaids because of unmet expectations. What do you think are reasonable expectations for bridesmaids? Or what were your expectations for your bridesmaids and how did you communicate them?
For my bridesmaids, my expectations were to order the dress and attend the wedding. All the girls were invited to my showers (didn't expect them to host), and I did expect the ones in driving distance to attend. I had an expectation of a bachelorette evening of some kind, but the pandemic really put a pin in that, and honestly I'm not that sad about missing it. I didn't really communicate my expectations up front except about the dress.
