Erin explained that the bride Venmoed her for her portion of the Airbnb. The MOH texted back in the group chat that Erin should Venmo her the money back, saying that they all were responsible for paying for the bride’s portion of the Airbnb AND her flight, then texted how much each person owed for the bride. “I don’t know – the whole thing is just weird to me because obviously, I agreed to go on the bachelorette party, so it would be weird for me to back out after I already booked the Airbnb,” Erin says in the video.
“And when you’re in a group message with nine other girls, you’re not going to speak up and say, ‘Oh, I don’t think we should be paying for this, or I didn’t realize this, it’s out of my budget, XYZ.’ I think I just have a problem when someone tells me how much I owe them without asking me if that’s an amount I’m comfortable with. Everyone makes a different amount of money and everyone has a different comfort level when it comes to spending money on a trip like this. So, what do you guys think? Is this normal? This is my first time being a bridesmaid for someone other than my sister. Is this expected? Should I be expecting this every time I’m asked to be a bridesmaid? Just for context, the bridesmaids are also paying for the shower too. We each gave the MOH $300 for the shower,” she concluded in her TikTok.
