Each bridesmaid dress is well worn, from deodorant stains to tattered hems.
Each carries a story.
Glantz has enough to rival a bridal boutique.
Glantz is up to her ears in dresses because she makes a living as a professional bridesmaid.
Our team has compiled alist of creative waysyou can fatten your bank account this week.
This is a long list, so dont get overwhelmed.
Well keep it updated as offers changes or expire.
In that year alone, Glantz found herself taking on the mantle of bridesmaid four times.
And throughout it all, she noticed a common trend in the wedding industry.
There was nobody there whose job it was to help the bride, says Glantz.
If the bride had a wedding planner, she was so busy setting up the wedding.
Glantz decided to capitalize on this gap in the industry and put her finely honed bridesmaid skills to work.
She posteda Craigslist ad: Professional Bridesmaid wfw 26 (NYC).
Did you know?
Let her fill a spot if you dont have any other girlfriends except your third cousin, twice removed.
Within two days, Glantz had received over 250 responses.
Clearly, there was a demand for a service that offers the chance of a stress-free wedding.
So Glantz decided to start her own business,Bridesmaid for Hire.
Then theres the ultimate package: A full-fledged bridesmaid for hire, which can cost upwards of $4,000.
And its not just the brides that Glantz offers her expertise to.
Or maybe the MOH just doesnt have a way with words.
Lucky for her, Glantz offers speech-writing packages ranging from $200 to $375.
That way, the MOH can avoid the dreaded awkward silence after an inappropriate inside joke falls flat.
In reality, this gig is nothing that like that movie The Wedding Ringer.
And everyone knows that weddings are rife with drama, right?

Glantzs experiences as a professional bridesmaid and CEO have led to other opportunities.
Between Bridesmaid For Hire and her other endeavors, Glantz says she earns tens of thousands a year.

One can hope that future bridesmaids-for-hire share Glantzs sentimental feelings about the business.

Maybe she could use some of Glantzs professional help.
Probably not as good as youd like.
It always seems like an uphill battle to build (and keep) a decent amount in savings.
But what if your car breaks down, or you have a sudden medical bill?
