[quote=Anonymous]One of DH's good friends was supposed to get married last Labor Day weekend in Maine. They called off the wedding about 6 weeks before, at which point everyone had to cancel flights and hotel (which only gave 50% back due to late cancellation, of course it was pre-paid). We were out like $2,500 total and it was a destination wedding so everyone else was too. We did also have to fly my parents in from Boston to take care of the kids - they still came anyway and we had a nice weekend, but not worth the cost of flying them in since the wedding was cancelled.

Well, they got back together this winter and just announced they are getting married again this coming Labor Day, this time in Mexico, and to expect an invite soon.

Are we really supposed to spend another $2,500+ on a new destination wedding now? What I find strange is that both of their families are local in DC/Virginia, so why wouldn't they just plan something here since they have already inconvenienced everyone once?? I would say this is a decently good friend, but not a best friend.

Has anyone ever been in this situation before? If we do go, do we still give a gift?[/quote]
