My sister and I are in our younger brother's wedding. His fiance's maid of honor has planned the bachelorette party/bridal shower for the same weekend. Unfortunately, we all live in different states so neither of us will be able to attend. Her maid of honor has asked each of the bridesmaids to contribute to both the bachelorette party and the bridal shower. Considering that we are unable to attend, what is expected of us as bridesmaids?

The maid of honor can ask, but you're not obligated to pay for a function you're not attending, especially the bachelorette party. If they are organizing a group shower gift, you can be a part of that, but, again, you aren't obligated.

I completely agree. Both of these are optional events and you would have had to been a part of the planning and hosting to be obligated to be financially obligated. Rebecca Black, Etiquette Now
