Like seriously? I already have to take days off but you also have it on a Saturday in October and I have to pay for a hotel room in DR.
Trying to find an excuse not to go.
I did this. I didn't want people to show and even told them that, but of course we weren't going to tell them they absolutely couldn't. For some reason, quite a few showed up anyway.

Anyone who has a wedding during football season has a special place in hell reserved for themselves. It's unconscionable.

Missing a Huskers game is the best gift the couple could have given you.

No, they do it to force their guests to take on the costs of their wedding.

Only thing worse is a wedding on opening weekend of deer season.

Destination weddings screen out folks who dont care about you enough to travel and white trash. It's a win-win.
If I get lucky, my 3rd wedding will definitely be a destination wedding...

I wouldn’t want to go if I couldn’t drink either.
How are you not the best man in your brothers wedding?

Man, go to your brother’s wedding and have a good time. Life is short. My son and his wife got married in Honduras last year as part of a cruise. It ended up being an amazing trip that my family all loved.

Typically people having a destination wedding are counting on a lot of people not attending. They extend an invite as a courtesy, but really they’re counting on only their closest family and friends attending.

You do that when you have to invite them, but you hope they won't come.
Dont disappoint them by showing up.

Maybe cause they don’t want to see the family.

Stupid.

That is the point they get a gift and you don't show up or have to pay for heads at the reception.

My SIL got married in Cabo 6 months after we got back in our house after Katrina. I didn’t want to go and was basically forced by the wife. The trip cost us more than our own honeymoon just a yr earlier.

How about using the church the bride grew up in? You know, where she was baptized, made her first communion, Sunday school, etc. Destination this!

I had a niece get married in Belize and there was no way for me to drag three small kids there.

Listen to yourself. You find it inconsiderate that a bride and groom chose their optimal destination for a wedding.
You don't have to go. If the they bitch about you not going THEN you have a gripe otherwise they probably don't give a shite if you show up.

But the $500,000 is divided among the 200 guests...
