We've been invited to three weddings...

between march and august. Two are during the summer (July and August) and we would have to travel OOT for both (Detroit and Buffalo). These are not ideas for summer vacation spots for us, and we might be moving in August. The other is a cocktail reception on a Friday night, in Texas, and I'll be traveling for work until the day before.

I'm thinking N.O to all of this. I'll send a present and call it a day. We'll save money for a potential move and the newleyweds will get their presents. Win-win!

Re: We've been invited to three weddings...

  • You can visit me if you fly to Detroit.

    But even I"m not that close to detroit.  ANd I avoid going there.

  • I know....Detroit isn't really known to be the most awesome summer vacay spot!

  • Not unless you're coming in for car shows/the woodward dream cruise/etc.
  • N.O. would be the right answer.

  • ITA. N.O. Is the best response.

    We're in the same boat - one re-wedding (they got married in SD at City Hall) in upstate NY (where they moved after getting married); one maybe wedding in WA (we'll see if they get married. They broke up, got back together and are getting married all of a sudden. This is how the guy got married the first time, it didn't work well); and one reception in SD (same maybe couple). We potentially get the axe from the WA wedding and get the invite to their PA wedding (yes, three weddings same couple). Plus there's another set of people getting married in PA. Nope to all. And one couple is really mad that we aren't shelling out the $ to go to their re-wedding.

  • March wedding is the sensitive one. It is a friend of mine, who attended my wedding on a Sunday. There will be mutual friends there, but they are more closely knit into the weave than I am (H isn't really friends with any of them).

    The other two...well, the Detroit wedding didn't come to my wedding citing money as the reason. That is easy enough to deal with.

    The Buffalo wedding....she came to our wedding, but we were local at the time. I don't know if she will be hurt. She helped us with some stuff for our wedding, so I don't know. She is closer to H, so maybe I'll have him do the RSVPing? Damnable? Perhaps, but I think I can live with it.
