[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wouldn't go. The out-of-state last "kid free" wedding we were invited to cost us several thousands between the week-end away with the groom's men (husband was in the wedding), the money they spent getting drunk at strip club (eyeroll), the hotel at the wedding venue, renting the outfits, gifts and whatnot. My husband attended while I stayed home with the kids. Never again. I can find a better use of my money. And if you don't care about meeting my kids then don't expect me to get all excited when it's your turn to have a family. [/quote]

This is why I don't do baby showers/kid's birthday parties anymore. Parents expect everyone to spend so much time/money on stuff for kids, but the second they're invited to a wedding it's "just too much".[/quote]

Yeah.  No one really expects you to fly out for your cousin’s baby shower, stay at a hotel overnight, and buy a new outfit.  You can just send a gift.  It’s really fine.  [/quote]

Dude.  Yes they do.  Have you never been to a wedding before?  Or a child’s birthday party?  They are really different events with very different expectations of the guests.

No they don't. An invite isn't a requirement. I promise you most people aren't losing sleep if you RSVP no and send a gift. [/quote]

You are really doubling down on this, huh?  
If you really don’t care that [b]no one came to your wedding[/b], then why the vindictive comment about not going to their baby showers?  [/quote]

Well that's news. If you want to play with your imagination go talk to your kid.[/quote]
