Would you be offended if someone left your wedding half way through the day because they're unwell ?

This happened to me a couple of weeks back. I was very unwell ( not covid ) and decided to pull myself together to go to a wedding. After the drinks reception, I had to go home as I became too unwell.

I sent my apologies to the bride and groom and parents afterward with flowers. Is that OK ? Would you think I was an idiot ?

My only brother left me wedding during the meal and never returned. I just had to deal with it. I was a bit sad, but that's my brother !

OP, is there a possibility that your brother knew you were marrying an arsehole and that is part of the reason he flounced?

So your husband married you in sickness and in health but then shames you for being sick and leaving a wedding where the happy couple share those same vows?!?
Your husband is an A but you most definitely are not!

It depends what type of ill, if it was sickness and diarrhoea then understandable but you shouldn’t have gone. Anything else than I would have hoped you would dose yourself up and make it through the reception. It’s nit hard to sit at a table and otherwise uou leave an empty place on the table which is awful fir others and places at weddings ate expensive to waste. Only you knew how poorly you were but think you should have either cancelled on the morning or stuck it out.

I think your only problem is your husband, not going early from a wedding. Sorry, but he sounds like a bully. Is he a bully in any other way?

No; I would want people to take care of their health, rather than of my special occasion! Also, even if it's not Covid, many illnesses are infectious, and other guests should not need to catch them unnecessarily.

Your husband is the one who sounds unreasonable!
