Would you let DC go to the wedding?

ExH who has them EOW has asked me if DC (7&5, both in school) can have a Friday off end of January for his cousin's wedding. They're invited to the whole thing, ceremony, food, party etc. Would you be okay with this? I hate the DC having absences from school and haven't yet ever given them a day off for anything other than sickness.

Absolutely not if the cousin was close enough to prioritise having them there they would have arranged the wedding on a non-school day.

I get on better and enjoy my cousins more than sibling
sibling wedding was a stressful chore cousins was best wedding ever
if you’d already made up mind why ask?
why not ask kids?
i would, it’s a one off life event they should be part of , would only quibble if if was an important exam or performance they were missing at school

Of course, it's daft not to.
