How much??

How much should I spend on gifts for my bridesmaids? What is a good amount for each of them?

Whatever you can reasonably afford.  We spent about $50 on each of our attendants & officiant (who is a family friend).  But I've heard of much more, and much less.

I spent about $50 as well.  I dont think theres an expected dollar amount.  Whatever you can do would be fine!

Ditto PPs, I spent about $50. It's the thought that counts!

It all depends on what you are comfortable spending.  Also, it's a nice gesture to give them something that isn't wedding related.

I spent about $30 but that was because I took on DIYing 2 out of the 3 parts of their gifts and I got good deals on the materials for my craft projects.

ETA:  We also have 6 attendants each so that impacted how much we could spend.  I suggest finding the total amount you can spend on all attendants, then dividing equally from there and finding each a thoughtful gift even if they are different from one another.  Definitely about the thought, not the $$ though.

I spent about 50. I'm also paying for their hair which is 60. But I think whatever you can afford/being thoughtful is the most important.

I also spent about $50. I made them all the same emergancy kit and then bought them all gifts that were unique to each of them. FI spent about $30 on each of his GM and he bought their ties for the wedding.

I spent about $40 on them, and I'll be covering the tip for everyone's hair since I booked the stylists.  Somewhere in the $30-60 range seems pretty average to me.

We each have 6 attendants so we spent about $20-$30 on each of them. I debate if I want to spend more, cuz I'd love to give my girls more but I just can't really afford it right now. If there were fewer attendants I'd spend more, but financially that's just not easy for us.

I spent $30-50$ range seems pretty average to me...
