The Rise of Professional Bridesmaids
Jen's journey began with her role as a bridesmaid for close friends, but soon, requests started pouring in from acquaintances she hadn’t spoken to in years. This unexpected turn prompted a lighthearted comment from a friend, dubbing her a "professional bridesmaid," which sparked an idea in Jen's mind to turn this into a business.
After posting an advertisement on Craigslist, she was inundated with inquiries from individuals looking to secure her services. Her fees vary significantly, ranging from $2,700 to $5,700, based on the specific requirements of the bride. These services may include involvement in pre-wedding events, phone conversations, and even emotional support sessions.
