Opinions on Maid of Honor

I don't understand why you would be upset that she's leaving...after the wedding. Her role as maid of honor is complete. Spend time with your husband.

Sorry to sound harsh but I 100% agree with this. I am not sure how much your wedding cost but at the end of the day she is spending her money for someone else's day. Yeah she should not complain to you about it rather keep it to herself but she has the right to not be fully happy spending her money for someone else's plans. I hate to say it but me spending my money on a vacation for me is much more pleasurable than spending money on someone else's celebration. Plus, she is there by your side for your wedding and her choosing to travel with her BF the day after your wedding. She has the right. She fulfilled her duties. May I ask if you are bothered because you are not taking a honeymoon right a way which is why you are feeling this way? She is in no way stealing your honeymoon rather her spending quality time on her dime with her guy. You would be in the wrong for this one and if you say anything you will cause drama and look bad to your family. Not worth it. She is there for your day so I do think you should be happy for her vacation.

Are you seriously saying that your sister shouldn't be allowed to take a vacation just because you can't go on your honeymoon immediately after your wedding? You don't have any right to expect her to not take a vacation. There's also nothing wrong with her not being happy about having to spend money to attend a destination wedding.

She's not "taking your honeymoon." Good grief.

Taking your honeymoon? What??

What how is she taking your honeymoon? Because she's going away after your wedding and you can't? that's strange to even say yet alone think. Yes sweetie you are being a crazy bride.

You don't really get a say in what other people do for vacation - where they go or when they go. If she is going to be there for your wedding and has purchased her dress and anything else you've requested, then you get to be happy about that. Where else she prioritizes her money (or complaining about money) is not of any business to you.

Are you doing anything the next day that the maid of honor would be needed for? My MOH flew out on Sunday after our wedding and I thought that was fine.

Most wedding guests leave the day after the wedding, in my experience. This is definitely a case of her "duties" being over, and then she gets to go about her life. Which happens to include a vacation. Which is not your honeymoon. Only you can take your honeymoon and I hope you enjoy it whenever you get around to scheduling it.

Yeah, it seems like you are being out of line here. You do not get to dictate if/when other people go on vacation. Unless your FH is leaving on the cruise with her, she isn't taking your honeymoon. Enjoy your wedding and not stress about the plans of others after your wedding. You'll have your HM!
