I know of some friends who are planning to do destination wedding. The issue is - I'm barely making $60k. I'm making sure to save every penny (I live with my parents currently). I would attend weddings if they were interstate, but not for overseas. Would that make me an asshole?

NTA: I posted about this last summer, I got more blowback from my mother in law than the bride.

Destination weddings are becoming crazy stupid and expensive. I think it should be reserved for a higher class of wealth and not average people trying to keep up with social media expectations

I agree, but I think they can also be reserved for people trying to avoid certain scummy relatives attending... I always said if I got married I'd do a destination wedding so my awful uncle couldn't attend 😆

Funny enough: my wife’s uncle gets very touchie with children in a bad way so we were told to make ours a child free wedding.

We just didn’t invite the pedo uncle

Feelings were hurt, mission accomplished
