My best friend is getting married in November and when she originally got engaged she asked me to be a bridesmaid. She booked a venue for November 16th and everything was good to go. Two months later she decides to forfeit her deposit on the original venue and move venues and the new date is November 17th. I am supposed to be going to Thailand at 6:00 PM on November 17th and it will cost $400/ticket (we have two tickets booked) to move our flight one day later. I am having a really hard time justifying paying $800 to move out flights plus all of the expenses of the wedding.
What would you do if you were in my situation? Is it rude toj just go to the rehearsal dinner (on 11/16) and spend the evening with her and then see her in the morning before I go to the airport? Should I just suck it up and pay almost $1000 to move the flights?
