Why the f have I spent $$$$ on my friends’ weddings, but they can’t find childcare with a year in advance???
I have rented cars, flights, entire house airbnbs (because they got married in fuckass no where Midwest farms) to go to these people’s weddings, but not that it’s my turn - they can’t find childcare? I sent the save the dates a YEAR ago??
AND not to mention all of these people live in the same neighborhoods with their parents - so the kids’ grandparents are near for help.
We also picked a city that has a close (ride share length) airport with a ton of hotels for the sake of our guests not spending $$$$.
One couple gets a pass because they have a newborn, but the rest have 2, 3, 4 year olds. It’s bullshit honestly. And we’re having a small wedding of 50 ppl - which means we only invited our BEST best friends.
So fucking annoying
Edit to add: ALSO thanks for reminding me - we’ve also traveled and shelled out $$$ for baby showers and child birthdays.
And we do have a lot of childfree friends who will BE there and I am so grateful for them. Thanks for letting me vent 👰🏻♀️ 💅🏼
