Would you hire a bridesmaid for your wedding?

For some reason this doesn't shock me ...people have turned weddings into a business , really look at the cost of everything ,no kids allowed they want their wedding perfect, the right church or country club, the exact flowers the cater the photgrapher every thing has to be perfect ...so I think this will be a very big thing ... next they will have a hired groom and bride too ...lol, just so everything is "perfect" ...

Wow! Kudos to that girl for creating a job for herself (literally! LOL). That took a bit of ingenuity but, if she found a market, more power to her. As for me, no. I would never hire a bridesmaid. I'd prefer to have no attendants than to pay someone to stand there. Imagine, if you have photographs, looking back on them with other people and having to answer the question, "and who is that?" "Oh, just someone I hired to be in my wedding party." Good grief. As far as would I be one... sure! LOL If someone wants to pay me to dress up and have fun, I guess I'd give it a whirl... but, at the age of 42, I won't expect the phone to be ringing off the hook ;)

I've never heard of such a thing. I cold never do that. My girlfriends will be my bridesmaids because they actually mean something to me.

I would never hire a bridesmaid for my wedding I have to many friends that would like to be bridemaids for me. But I could see if there is a need for one, I guess you can hire one.Does she have to pay for all the different bridemaids dresses she wears herself?

Not sure if i would want to do this as i could see my family and friends not being too happy that i didn't ask them! But on the other hand if they come with the dress and all bits like their hair being done all nice etc. it would save a lot of time and headaches, going round the shops and also any arguments over the colour of the dresses.

Do you really need a bridesmaid? I mean what about those weddings in vegas?

The whole idea seems wrong to me. Traditionally the bridesmaids are relatives of the bride, or at least family members of a close friend. I know that tradition is not as firmly upheld as it used to be, although I feel that this is one area in which it will continue to reign. What value would the wedding photographs have if they consisted of hired assistants instead of family and friends. After all, not many people have a photograph of the photographer or the caterer from their wedding. The next step would be to hire a best man, or maybe a professional to give the bride away.

i think ome people dont need because they maybe having friends but you dont have they should definetly have to keep bridesmaid when it is necassary.i myself if it required then i wwould definetly keep a bridesmain,for good help,so that all the works will bbe happend perfectly

This is the first I've heard of bride's maids for hire. I wonder if it's lucrative???? Just kidding! And no, if I were getting married and did not have a female friend to fill the role, I would ask a male friend or relative to step in. I know that is a little unconventional itself, but hey so is hiring someone to fill a role traditionally to go to someone close to you. To each their own I guess. Cheers!

I can't understand this company. Why should a person will order a bridesmaid? Doesn't she has any friends that can be bridesmaid? It's so wierd. Anyway, I will never order this kind of service, but I will deffinatly will be one if I could. When I will be a student, I will need every money that I can get, and that's seem to be an easy and a fun way to get it.

LOL that is just too funny. why would someone do that?

That is really tacky. I can't see that. That is thepoint of friends and family. Give me a break.

I personaly would not do it but if that is what yopu feel you would like to do you should go for it. I think bridemaids should be close friends and or family

I think I would rather have no bridesmaid than hire somebody to do it. I wonder what sort of people would want to do this.

I find this kind of strange. Nothing immoral or unthinkable, just strange. I would think that someone would have enough friends to stand up with them. Now it may be that they are regarding bridesmaids as being catering and organizing apprentices, people who will help manage the ceremony and reception in order to help things go smoothly. I guess it is different in different parts of the country.

I've always wanted to be a wedding coordinator ... I guess I could add this to my list of services offered!! LOL! I think it's kind of sad that anyone might need to hire a bridesmaid and in my experience it seems as though the groom has more problems finding groomsmen! I think that if people are using the service, there must be some kind of perceived need. But, the bridesmaid for hire would have to lie in order to pull it off and I just don't think that I would agree with that!

I wouldn't hire a bridesmaid but would definitely hire myself out to be one. What a great way to make money...eating, drinking, dancing...I could handle that.

do you know anyone that would like to hire a bridesdog for a wedding, my terms are very reasonable, winalot, and some doggybix is all I really need.

Nope I wouldn't hire a bridesmaid for my wedding..I have so many friends and relatives I can invite to be my bridesmaid and to me it is a very special position for a special friend to be at your side during your wedding. I don't see a problem with people hiring bridesmaid..It is their personal choice.

This is the first time I ever heard of such a service and didn't realize that somebody is actually hiring somebody to be their bridesmaids. I think bridesmaids have a role to play in a wedding. They choose you to be thier bridesmaids because you play a special role in their life. Like during my wedding, I have a number of best friends (High school friends, college friends, friends from home, friends from work) and I selected them all, Including my sister and cousin to be my bridesmaids because they are all special to me. And selecting them to be my bridesmaids would make them feel thay they are an important part of my life. So I would never really hire somebody to be my bridesmaids, because I may be sentimental, but I want my bridsmaids to be someone who is really close to me. And I would never consider myslef being hired to be the bridesmaids of somebody else because I don't want to be just a puppet or an ornament for somebody else wedding.
