Saying No to Third-Party Pressure

When someone other than the bride or groom is pressuring you, fend them off without guilt.

Mom, I just don’t have the time or the energy to go to this wedding. My job keeps me running all week, and I really need my weekends to take care of everything else in my life. Besides, I barely know the bride. I’d like to get to know her better, but weddings aren’t a good place for that anyway. (Optional: Why don’t we plan on a family dinner with the newlyweds in a month or two when things settle down?)

I love you and I love to see you, but I can’t stand these noisy weddings where the band is so loud that you can’t even talk. I’ll come over next Sunday, and we’ll spend the afternoon together.

I really want to spend time with you and Grandpa, but I don’t want to share you with two hundred other people. Let’s make plans to get together, just us.
