I ordered my bridesmaid dress months in advance, organized bachelorette party plans in color-coded spreadsheets, and then, at the festivities, stuck with a one-drink maximum so I could always be sober enough to take care of the people around me.except for how much it cost. After paying for the dress, travel, gifts and day-of glam, I was often draining a thousand dollars, or more, for each wedding.
I used the momentum from the ad to launch Bridesmaid for Hire in July of 2014. Since then, I’ve worked weddings for strangers as a hired bridesmaid all over the world.

I do everything that a real bridesmaid would do.
I’ve been hired to help brides end their engagements or to step in as the sole bridesmaid for couples eloping without anyone else in their life knowing about it.
