I've been a bridesmaid three times in the last year.
Hen weekends, travel, hotels, extra shoes all add up. My cousins wedding cost me close to £600.
Don't get me wrong, I love my friends and am very happy to have been asked. Hmmmm I just sound a bit moany here don't I?

That's just madness.
Can't people just have an evening in the pub?

I went to Budapest a few months ago for a hen. That I didn't mind though as I organised it all so was sensible regarding costs. Plus, it was hilarious.

Warsaw, Riga and Berlin recently.
There's something a bit too LAD about stag weekends for my tastes. Plus I ALWAYS set off the metal detector and have to get my willy out in that body scanner thing :(

Jeeze
Budapest next time he gets married then? Cheap and beautiful and fun.
The best bit was the bride's face when she realised where we were going. She had no idea until we got to the departure gate.
