I'd just buy a really nice gift and then explain to the dude about the game.
If he's really your friend ... would he not want you to be at the tailgate/game?

This. If they do, not on weekends like this

Tell your friend to dump the girl and join you for the game. If his woman plans a wedding during the season, she is tipping her hand as to the type of wife she will be.

I have two friends getting married in November. They planned it on a bye week.
now that is how it's done

Easy:
1. Make appearance at wedding and make sure they know you are there. Skip reception, or just go for half an hour - again, make sure they know you are there.
2. Drive that night all the way to BR or stop in Lake Charles or Lafayette and sleep at a hotel.
3. Wake up early and drive to BR and miss nothing!

I have tickets to the LSU- A&M game but I just received an invite to a good friend's wedding the night before in Conroe, TX.
I live in The Woodlands so the options are to either skip the wedding and go that night or go to the wedding and wake up early to drive to BR but probably miss amazing tailgating and hassling Aggies.
I'd go for the ceremony, make an appearance, then haul it to BR. Just because its a wedding doesn't mean you can't drive anywhere that night or the next morning.
Its just over 4 hours from Conroe to BR. You can make it easy. Leave the reception by 8-8:30 and make it to BR around midnight or a little later.
BUUUUUUUT if you decide not to go, I'm looking for tickets :jump1: :jump2:

Go to the wedding. Give me ticket

If you are not in the wedding, why would you consider going?

SKIP IT!
My brother-in-law and I skipped my nephews wedding a few years ago because it was on the same day as the Auburn game and we had tickets and plans for months before the invitation ever came. Our wives were pissed, but they got over it. Geaux Tigers.

I'm liking this idea here.
No way I'm missing one of the biggest games of the year.
My fiancé and I are getting married January 25th; doesn't coincide with the Nat'l Championship or the Super Bowl. I told her we do it outside of football season or things could get difficult.
For those that scheduled their wedding on a bye week, aren't you worried whether a big game will be scheduled on one of your anniversaries?
Posted on 10/3/13 at 9:13 am to ag3ntpurpl3
It's always okay to decline an invitation based on having conflicting plans, and send a nice note and a gift. However, if this is a good friend whose wedding you might otherwise have wanted to attend, ask yourself when you look back on this incident in five years, what is more likely to cause you regret: missing the tailgating or missing the wedding?

Forget the wedding & go to the game. If friend schedules wedding on game day, is he really a friend?

Because you don't instinctively know the right thing to do, makes me sad for you.
