Hi all, as many of you may know my h2b and I are getting married abroad in Kenya. So we got talking about stag do and he tells me he is going to prague!! Im sorry but we are going to KENYA, id never have the nerve to ask ppl to pay that to go to the stag do not if they are paying alot of money to come to our wedding. I think he is being unreasonable, plus when his brother had his stag do in liverpool, he was the one who said he should have had it closer to home (as they went to jamaica for their wedding). All the things he moaned about with his brothers wedding he seems to be doing. and there is no making him see sense
gggrrrrrr men. "its my stag do, i will go where i want too". blah

Perhaps hes thinking if his brother can do then why cant he? It might be the male version of sibling envey lol. I'd just go along with it work out prices to do it then say ok well if you want this, then you cant have that, maybe? Hopefully when he see's its alot of money and other things will have to be sacrificed as well as some friends not being able to go then, he'll change his mind and pick somewhere closer to home.

Whether you think it's unreasonable or not isn't really the point Sharon. He wants to go to Prague, actually quite a popular destination for stag do's these days. His friends will either say they can afford it and they'll all go or they'll say they can't and then they'll go do something else. If they do decide to go then tell him he has to pay for his own flights & spending money and it won't come out of your wedding fund (but you'll then have to pay for your own Hen night as fair is fair) hails is right - probably sibling envy and he's trying to compete with his brother, but this isn't worth stressing about. Just leave him to get on with it.
But no, he's not being a t*at - he wants a good bash with his friends before he gets hitched - not an unreasonable request imho
It's right what they say

But if it had been easy then we wouldn't love each other as
much as we do right now - 1 week to go :D

i just think when it was him who said his brother was being silly and going to liverpool! then he comes out with prague. and he was the one who said that it was unfair to put ppl in that postion and now he is going to do the same!
i want him to have a fab time. but within reason as we are on a budget

Maybe price it up... the UK can be just as expensive as abroad with our taxes on alcohol...

Dove's got a point.
I get where you're coming from because of what he said about his brother, but you never know, he might have done his homework and looked into it and discovered it would be a little less expensive. Have a talk to him but keep an open mind to him going.
We looked into the Dam before I got pregnant again - it would have cost about £250pp for a 2 day, 1 night trip including spends, we then looked into going to the coast and it would have ended up costing the same amount - now a weekend in the Dam or a weekend in Scarborough/Bridlington at the same cost..........bit of a no-brainer to us. But we couldn't expect our 'rents to look after the kids for that long, and Squigglet's only going to be between 6 & 7 months. So we're doing Alton Towers for the day :)
Don't write Prague off as an expense thing just yet
