We have been invited to three weddings this year, all really far from where we live.
We are staying with family for the first so we just have to pay for the train, about £70, and outfits - which would do for the others. It is a family wedding so can justify the expense. The next wedding is a friends and with train fare, accomadation and extras such as food will cost about £200. The third is in Scotland, I live near London, will cost alot in train fare, accomadation will be expensive and is in the middle of nowhere so we will have to spend loads on taxis.
We are going to the first but just cannot afford to go to the others. I know the people holding the weddings pay a lot for them but is it fair that we should also spend a fortune. Will people be offened if we tell them we just cannot afford to come?
