I stopped going to weddings over ten years ago... Some people can be quite touchy about it, one VERY good friend hasn't spoken to me since I didn't go to hers... Took me completely by surprise considering at the time I was skint and my other half was really sick... Weird...
Weddings are awful affairs...
I got married on a tourist boat on the Mississippi river, no family, just two Memphian mates as witnesses and a bunch more for the reception later that night... Every impoverished musician within a ten mile radius got wind and turned up for a feed and a drink, was great fun!

People who have weddings in remote, grand and presumably wildly expensive places that they have no ancestral link with. Presumably they do this to let everyone know how very grand, important and incredibly well off they are. But then they do but it on weekday in term time and stipulate no kids, presumably all as cost-cutting measures. Now half of the guests who are of breeder age need to take at least three days off work, pull kids out of school and/or arrange childcare to attend your selfish fantasy. It's basically shifting the cost of the event onto the guests. JUST DO IT SOMEWHERE YOU CAN ACTUALLY AFFORD YOU PRETENTIOUS TWATS.
