About Friends wedding

[Scottishdreams1991]

Friend is getting married overseas next year which will be a childfree wedding. All good. Since it will be expensive and ultimately take our hoilday fund away. Dh and our 3 dc will come to so we can also have a hoilday. completes different hotel and roughly 20 -30 mins away from wedding. The plan was i would go to wedding etc while dh and dc do something else for the day.

Friend has told me that its not OK.
im i missing something here?

No. You going to the wedding and your dc aren't. Don't understand the issue for the bride. If she has a problem with your arrangements around this just give your apologies don't go to the wedding and have holiday elsewhere.

“Just to be absolutely clear Bridezilla, you’re having a Childfree wedding but you’re not happy I’m coming without my children as they’ll be in the same country at the time of the wedding? Yeah, not gonna work for me I’m afraid, I’ll have to decline the invitation”

and don’t give her a second thought. She cannot dictate how people want to spend their time abroad!

Perfectly reasonable and kind thing for you to plan so you can go to her wedding but also have a family holiday. Go have a family holiday elsewhere and forget about the wedding. Entitled bridezilla. Please please DO NOT forgo a family holiday in place of you going to her wedding. She’s very ungrateful.
