Hi Bridesmaids!

I’m curious to hear others people’s opinions on +1s for bridesmaids because I can see reasons for both giving one or not.

For context, I’ve been a bridesmaid 4 times. I only received a +1 once bc I had a boyfriend at the time. The other 3 I’ve been single. I’ve had to travel out of state for every wedding, and 2 of them I didn’t know any other bridesmaid going into the wedding. Just giving these details so it’s more clear where my pov is coming from.

I hadn’t really thought much about the topic until recently hearing a discussion on wedding etiquette, and it showed me different perspectives on the +1 issue.

On one hand, it seems like a fair courtesy to give someone a +1 if they’re traveling out of state and won’t know many people. On the other hand, I can understand couples not wanting a stranger at their wedding.

For me, not getting a +1 is definitely not a dealbreaker to be in a friend’s wedding, but I’m curious to hear about other people’s experiences and expectations.

I’ve tried reaching out to PayPal customer support, but they’re not very helpful.

I’ve noticed that the money I earned from Prolific in USD can be transferred out of my PayPal immediately, but money in GBP will show as “estimated balance,” but I can’t transfer it.

I’ve been on Prolific for a few weeks now, and was just wondering how long it’s taken for other people to actually be able to use the money they received in GBP.
