Sorry for the semi-repeat. I don't know if people check old threads, and I'm in a bad mood and need to let off some steam.
It's official. The date is set. The day after mine. Their wedding day is on the day I WAS going to leave on my honeymoon.
I talked to my cousin on FB chat today, and without trying to be a bridezilla, I gently asked him again about his date to see if it's confirmed. It is. He said they picked that day so my uncle and aunt who are flying in can save money. Fair enough.
So I call my mom, who agrees that this sucks. I told her that I wouldn't be going to his wedding because the flights / honeymoon is booked and my mom completely shut that down, saying I HAVE to go to his wedding. My mom said she will reimburse us for the extra cost of changing our flights to the next day.
My fiance and my dad are in my cousins enormous wedding party, and it just sucks for everyone. No one wants to go to back-to-back weddings, especially since they're at opposite ends of the city, and my cousin's wedding is morning wedding, which means people will be leaving early from mine.
I'm so disappointed and annoyed. If my uncle is worried about an additional flight, why can't my mom just give my uncle the money she was going to give me so he only has to PAY to fly out once? I feel like I'm starting to become a bridezilla and I don't like this. I haven't actually told my cousin how I feel, because I'm not sure it's my place. Should I express my concerns (obviously nicely) when I see him at Christmas?
UGH. I want to elope.
