To just go to the wedding....it would depend on the relationship i had with the couple.
If it was to fund an over the top in you face, Jordanesque wedding , then it would be a NO. For a dear friend, desperate to marry and cutting every corner to do so then maybe consider it. I would certainly offer the help with invites, food for the buffet....things like that rather than cash.
10 years ago one of my closest friends wanted me to be her bridesmaid, she lived in New Zealand, but was getting married back home in the UK. She sent me some material and a pattern and asked if I would get the dress made up. I never told her it cost over £140 to get donesmiley: grin. I didn't care at the time (I could tell the skirt and boned corset top was made to an out standing standard), the out fit was stunning, the day VERY special, and she is still one of my dearest friends.smiley: happysmiley: happysmiley: happy
