unable to attend DB's wedding because DM randomly picked the date for them

I am really upset about this. My DB told my DM he wanted to get married in June, but didn't have a preference about the date, and asked her which date she liked. She randomly picked the 8th of June, but didn't ask me how easy / difficult it would be for me to take leave then. The wedding will be in Malaysia (the rest of my family is there and I am the only one abroad). It will be impossible for me to take time off work that week, but annoyingly, I have a week off work the week before. If she had only asked me first, I could have told her that, I would be able to attend his wedding! He's my only DB and I would so love to be there :( AIBU to have expected her to ask me first?

Is there time to get him to change the date?

I would have expected him to do any asking. Your mum just picked a date, its up to your brother what he does with it.

Your brother should have checked with you. Yes, your Mum should also have considered you. Can you go out the preceeding week anyway and spend some time with him?
