You might have missed it, but I am going to the wedding and the rehearsal. I just wish that he would have realized that it's just a damn rehearsal and that I would be there for the wedding.

Same tickets, I am just reminded of my anger because this is the weekend. I've had the tickets for months.

How much in advance did you have the tickets? How much in advance did your friend set his wedding date?

That's brutal, but there will be other games. Maybe for your wedding he will throw you a bachelor party in a luxury box or something...

Yep. Sorry, Omaha...I disagree here. I think missing the rehearsal really isn't a big deal. He agreed to show up early and be there for the wedding. Since Jack is spending his money and taking time to fly out for a wedding, a true friend wouldn't mind if he missed rehearsal. Afterall, the wedding is the important event......I've been in quite a few weddings over the years and people coming from out of town often missed rehearsal.....

That's ridiculously short notice to make it to, let alone be in, a wedding on the other side of the country. Hopefully, you won't have to wear yellow vests. I'd be pretty pissed in your situation.
