[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Any update OP? What did you decide and how did it go?

I'm 13:33 btw[/quote]

Here's where I'm at right now:

Plan A: DH will hopefully know his status a few days before the wedding. If he is able to get away from work (and stay with the kids) AND we can get an OK airfare then I will fly to the wedding and come back the next day. Plenty of time for studying and DC will not miss his recital.
Plan B: If we find that DH will NOT be able to come home that weekend, I guess I'll just pack up the kids and go. 4 days gone, and DC will miss his recital, but there isn't much to be done about that. At least I'll be able to visit some hometown friends and pack up a few items that were left at my mom's before we moved here.

I still feel conflicted and guilty. I know I never should have said yes (since DH can't go and kids aren't invited) and still believe the most sensible thing to do is to not go and just send a really generous gift. I'm not even worried about what the bride and groom will think of me - more like my parents and my SIL. [/quote]

Don't let the DCUM harpies get to you.  If it makes sense to not go, then honestly, just send your regrets and a gift.   It will be fine![/quote]
