We have accepted invitation to evening do for not-close friends but at the time I didn't click that the date was the same day as friend's birthday and that it is a milestone birthday.
So of course friend is having party on the same day. No crossover, different cities. Friend is in home city and is good friend although we don't see each other as often as we'd like. If it wasn't a milestone I'd go to the wedding but I know how much effort it will be for her to be child/baby free and she will go to a lot of trouble.
WIBU to retract the acceptance? And if not, do we just come clean or do we need to embellish it a little to make it seem less rude - eg say that friend changed the date and I'm helping so committed...? Or something.
