OOT wedding - wknd of events - WWYD?

We are going to the OOT wedding of a good friend. We are making a wknd out of it and are excited to go and are bringing someone who can watch the kids during the wedding.

Well now they have invited all guests to the rehearsal dinner the night before and there is a brunch the morning after. I am already a little nervous about leaving DD the night of the wedding because she normally nurses to sleep and I have not left her at bedtime yet. Leaving her two nights in a row is a little much for me, plus the morning after the wedding.

If we are there for the weekend, is it rude to decline the other two events and only go to the wedding? They are all adult-only events. The bride knows we will be there all weekend.

    I don't think it is rude.

    Maybe do the brunch?

  • I don't think it's rude. What about doing wedding + brunch?

  • Also: could you do a trial run of bedtime w/ someone else before the wedding? If it goes great and you want to go, you could swing the RD too.

  • I don't think it's rude at all. If I were the bride I would not be upset in the slightest. Do whatever you are comfortable with

  • It's not rude at all. If I were the bride I would totally understand.

  • It's not rude but I'd do it if you wanted. I was a bridesmaid for a wedding this past weekend and it was the same deal. I went to the rehearsal dinner but ducked out a little early. The night of the wedding I went home (well to my parents where LO was staying) right after dinner, put her to bed then went back to the wedding. I brought her to brunch the next day though (with the brides blessing of course).
  • @Jessimax - unfortunately the RD does not start til 7:00. The wedding starts at 6:00 the next night. DD's bedtime routine starts at 7:00.

    We will probably do wedding + brunch. That is a good compromise I think.

     

  • I dont think its rude at all. Im sure they will understand. Have fun!
