Re DH's friends wedding

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

Hi all,

Thanks for your reports. Could we please ask you to bear in mind the talk guidelines when posting, particularly when commenting on people's parenting choices.

The main aim of the site is, after all, to provide support to parents.

Thanks for your reports folks, we're going to lock the thread to give us a chance to take a proper look at it.

Hi folks,

We've now unlocked the thread.

We're all for people discussing each other's choices, as that's kind of one of the things MN is for; but we do ask MNers to stick to our Guidelines and not throw mud or insults. We've deleted a few posts that struck us as being just plain mean

Morning everyone

We've had a look at some of the more recent posts, sent a couple of mails and suspended one poster who seemed intent on inflaming.

We don't want to have to zap this, but we're quite close to it now - it's just taking a ridiculous amount of our time which could be better spent dealing with other things.

So please... one last polite request to play the ball and not the woman, eh?

Thanks
MNHQ
