on their bm gift - looking for what the average range is?  If you are also paying for their hair and makeup please include.  Thank you!

    I spent about 150 - 200 on my nieces.  My sister I spent 250 on.  I got them all different stuff based on what I know they would like.  I did not pay for hair and makeup.

    I got kate spade makeup cases that were on sale 1/2 off from what they normally are for BM (30) and spent 100 on MOH, still have to buy for flower girls and jr bridesmaids. Any ideas? I am also paying for hair and make up but based on scheduling, I dont think everyone will be there for that.

    I think I spent around $100ish and then also paid for their hair ($80) not makeup.

    I've spent a little under $50 so far...I think I may get them each $50 GC for getting their hair/makeup done as well, if they all choose to get it done.

    I got my girls jewelry at Macys and I work there so I got a great discount but if I had to pay retail it would have been about $75 a girl...this includes a personalized compact from Things Remembered and a bridesmaid survival tote with things like nail files, tissues, lotion, etc...I am only paying for hair and make up of my sister, MOH, as part of her gift. I also bought her dress too (She's in college and has zero money lol).

    I spent ~100 on each BM and ~130 on my MOH.  I didn't pay for hair and make-up, but did cover the tips for anyone who chose to have those services.

    I'm going to spend about $50 on my bridesmaids and for my sisters who are my MOH I'll spend probably $150 b/c I'm paying for them to get their hair done.

    I think I may spend $75 on BM's. More for my MOH who is my sister b/c I know she is paying for most of my shower. I am going to try to go to the coach outlets to get make up bags for them too. For my flower girl I may get her a flower girl American Girl doll or I heard she may have her ears pierced soon so if she does then I will get her earrings.
