Re DH's friends wedding

999 replies

DH friend is getting married later in the year. DH is the best man. I am due to give birth 6 weeks prior to the wedding.

DH is going away on stag weekend (abroad) when child is 3 weeks old. I don't mind this, but it is a factor in my current annoyance.

Wedding is in a really fancy hotel, about 50 miles from where we live. We aren't planning to bring the children anyway.

We were planning to stay 2 nights in fancy hotel, as DH has plans with the groom and other friends the day/evening before. I was happily going to relax in the hotel, maybe go to the spa, go for a nice walk, just relax child free. Spend the night together, and wake up on the morning of the wedding and take my time getting ready, relaxing breakfast by myself etc.

DH friend has now told him he's booked them a room for the night before (along with a third friend). So, DH is staying the night before, and I will just have to sort myself out in the morning and make my own way to the hotel, already dressed for the wedding (as check in is too late to get ready there).

I'm pissed off. AIBU? And if so, should I be pissed with DH? Is it really his fault? Should he say no, or should we be more accommodating to the plans of the groom?

For the purposes of not drip feeding;

  1. It's over £200 a night so I don't want to spend that on a room for the night before, by myself.
  2. I'm not friendly with the bride at all

Janine go ahead. I think you and the F word go quite beautifully together almost like

Oh pay no attention LJ. Grasping at bloody straws.

Lj8893 · 28/01/2014 19:18

Anyway, I personally think its nicer to swear occasionally than to nastily judge others. I don't think judging is very ladylike either. So I guess neither of us are lady's jimmy.

And I was always taught sarcasm was the lowest form of wit.

JimmyChooChoo · 28/01/2014 19:18

Harold I can't help it but I actually find you slightly endearing Grin

Good guess chunderella

FootieOnTheTelly · 28/01/2014 19:22

Juno. I think you are brilliant!
You have handled the weirdness/nastyness on this thread amazingly well. I really hope you are ok and not bothered by it.

Thanks Wine (non-alcoholic) Cake

Chunderella - another nit picker pipes up
Wow thanks for telling me what I mean though
Very kind

HaroldLloyd · 28/01/2014 19:23

I'll take endearing.

Lj8893 · 28/01/2014 19:26

harold your such a lady Grin

BrandNewIggi · 28/01/2014 19:27

This is becoming pathetic. Less than 200 posts left to keep abusing each other (not even arguing, just abusing).

candycoatedwaterdrops · 28/01/2014 19:32

Abusing each other? One step up from "waah, you're all bullies".

Lj8893 · 28/01/2014 19:33

I'm just stubborn tbh.

JimmyChooChoo · 28/01/2014 19:35

Fwiw worth u haven't swore or called anyone a massive arse (class Grin )
Fwiw I'm quite proud of my arse Grin
