to say thank you but no thank you to a family wedding invite

[jemima1988]

I have a 3 month old baby and will only be returning in July

I will be buying a house this year
safe to say it will be a tight year in terms of budget.

my DPs cousin has just invited us to her wedding it's abroad in a gorgeous boutique hotel I won't be able to afford much in terms of fun and leisure this year let alone a family wedding. DPs family is very close and he thinks we should be without on a few bits and go for a break I personally don't see a holiday with his family as a break but that's another issue

wwud?

I agree with expat too. It's all very well the B&G deciding to have a 'destination wedding', but if it meant I had to budget for the rest of the year or my family had to do without in order for us to attend a wedding then there is no way we would go. I'd catch up with the B&G, and I'm sure that if we were as important to them as we were to them, they'd fully understand.

catch up with the B&G when they got home
