Woman slams ‘rude’ bride and groom after her husband paid £400 for a three-day stag do in Portugal but didn’t receive an invite to the wedding
- Woman, from the UK, took to Mumsnet and told husband paid £400 for stag do
- Said he regularly socialises with the groom-to-be both alone and with his family
- Was ‘annoyed’ he wasn’t invited to the big day despite paying for trip to Portugal
A woman has vented her anger after her husband paid £400 to attend a friend’s stag do – but wasn’t invited to the wedding.
The wife of the man, from the UK, took to Mumsnet and explained how her husband was attending the three-day weekend abroad in Portugal for an old school friend – one she says he ‘regularly socialises’ with.
However, she was left feeling ‘annoyed’ and ‘p***ed off’ after he forked out for the stag do, but wasn’t asked to the actual wedding day.
Many agreed the woman had every right to feel frustrated, with one branding the bride and groom ‘odd and very rude,’ and a second slamming their ‘utterly grim behaviour.’

A third raged: ‘and he still considers this man a friend …. sad.’
The woman went on to explain that her husband is really looking forward to the stag weekend in August – and that she has no issues with it.
She continued: ‘In January the wedding invites went out and he didn’t receive one. I thought they may wait until they see him in person. We’ve seen them twice since and nothing has been mentioned.’
To make matters worse, one of the wives of her husband’s friend admitted she knew the pair wasn’t invited.
‘I wouldn’t be annoyed if it was a night out at home or one night away in the UK. It’s a 3 day weekend in Portugal,’ she added. ‘I’m fully prepared to be told I’m being unreasonable but I would like some outside input.’
And just like the woman in question, many were particularly shocked he didn’t even receive an evening invite.
Many branded the couple ‘rude’ for not sending out a wedding invite, with one adding: ‘And he still considers this man a friend…sad’ (pictured)
‘Wow! That’s incredibly rude of the couple. Not even an evening invite? I would find that very crass and if I couldn’t get my money back, I’d tell them why I’d be cutting contact afterwards,’ wrote one, while a second agreed:
‘I could possibly at a push understand only an evening invite but attend the stag. I’m attending a hen do soon but know I won’t be a day guest and that’s completely fine obviously. But I take it you are saying no invite at all. If so that’s serious.’
A third added: ‘It’s really rude of the couple. If he’s close enough to the groom to go to the stag do, I would at least expect an evening invitation to be given.’
However, others suggested her husband may not be bothered about the invite – and was just keen to go on a jolly with the lads.
‘Well he might not care about not being invited to the wedding. It’s a p**sup jolly for a few days with the lads without the wife. Stand your ground on a wedding gift though,’ wrote one.
A second commented: ‘Men don’t care that they haven’t been invited to a wedding. They see a stag as an excuse for a p**s up. My male friends /ExH really don’t even think about it.’
Some took to the comments section and told how her husband may not be bothered about the invite – and was just pleased to be going away with the lads (pictured)
