Hello. I just to need to soundboard/check whether I’m being unreasonable. My partner and I have been looking to get married next year. We’d originally planned a date in June, but it became clear that the costs were getting astronomical (hello wedding industry 🫠). We’ve therefore decided on having the ceremony at the Town Hall followed by the reception at a restaurant in March. We’ve gone through all the dates in the year, and after taking into account other family members’ commitments and holidays, the only date and time we could do was the 20th of March. We have now provisionally booked this date and messaged the family to check this was okay. My brother has made it clear that he’s not happy about it as he’d planned to do something for his 40th birthday. His birthday is the weekend before, but he is away in Ireland for the rugby. The only other date available for the Town Hall is in April, but he is on holiday then. He’s basically said any date we do will overshadow his birthday. I love my brother and he is my best friend, but this just feels a bit off and I’m pretty upset about. Any advice as to what I should do would be really welcome xx
