I am the bridesmaid for one of my longest and closest friends getting married in Spring 2025.
Bride and MOH have put a message in the hen do group chat this morning that the plan for hen do is a 5 hour flight and 4 night break in April, about a month before the wedding.
I have just come off maternity leave and working part time. I do not know if I will be comfortable leaving DC for that amount of time nor can I afford it. I also have another 2 weddings in 2025 so 3 hen do’s next year.
I feel like as a best friend and bridesmaid I should go to her hen, but I just do not think I can afford it or be able too.
I worry that everyone else will think I’m being unreasonable in the group chat and she will question if she wants me to be bridesmaid.
