Oh, the honor of being chosen as a bridesmaid! And oh, the costs associated with such an honor. Here are the things that you can expect to shell out on when you sign on.
• Bridal shower - invitations & postage, food, decorations, game prizes, favors, gift
• Bachelorette party - possible dining, drinks, gas, lodging, and...gift
• Wedding gift
• Bridesmaid dress
• Possible alterations
• Possible strapless bra
• Shoes
• Jewelry
• Hair
• Make up
Please make sure to have a "Come To Jesus Meeting" with the rest of the bridal party to discuss how you will split these costs and who will be responsible for each component...FACE TO FACE if you can. Unfortunately because of distance and because people have lives, usually email is the only way to get anything done. If this is the case, which it will probably be, consider using Google Documents. You can share spreadsheets and list tasks and costs in one place. And everyone can edit the documents at the same time. This will definitely save you a lot of time and headaches.
