WWYD? Two events on the same day...

Original post by MrsDtoBe09

I have a wedding in October that I've known about for quite a long time but it's also my niece's first birthday that weekend and she lives in NC. I feel like I've missed so many things in her life and I really want to make it to her birthday but on the other hand I have known about this wedding much longer. It's not a very close friend but she did come to my wedding. I don't know if I should suc k it up and miss my niece's first birthday or very politely tell her the situation I'm in and then rsvp no when we get the invte. Obviously I would send the same gift if I went or not. I'm so torn! What would you do if you had to choose between family and friends?

And Joey, if you're reading this it's NOT your wedding!

This is really tough! I'm a pretty rigid person...so I tend to stick to the first made plans. I've had too many flaky people in my life bail on me at the last second because something better came along, and I've always prided myself on NOT being like that.

Of course, this is a really different situation...I'd probably go to the wedding. Would you be making the trip down there no questions asked if there wasn't the wedding? Like, would you possibly have not gone anyways because of money issues, not being able to afford another trip down there? I guess if there was any inkling that you might not have gone down anyways, I would stick with the wedding and first made plans. Chances are you'd still 'pay' less with a wedding gift than a trip for two to NC.
