    This thread has given me the best laugh I've had for ages. For gawd's sake, NONONONONONONONO it's NOT reasonable to be upset about this! Don't even get me started on what IS reasonable to be upset about - family illness, injury, death...cruelty to vulnerable people or animals...oppression of women in many parts of the world...people starving, or dying for lack of basic medical care...I told you not to get me started. Anyone getting upset about such a thing as the OP describes makes me wonder if they are deserving of oxygen. Sorry to speak so frankly but honestly....

    What I got from her is that she is upset not because they used the venue, but that they did not mention it to her beforehand, or say something like 'thank you for finding such a good place' because she put in so much effort into finding a perfect venue which is actually very reasonably priced.

    @duchy - that family thrives on drama - its like corrie & eastenders rolled into one.

    What a thoroughly silly woman, full of her own importance.

    I urge you to show her the replies on this thread.
    She needs a slap in the face with a good dollop of reality.

    Heavens knows how she'd react if something worthy of getting upset about happened to her.

    About 3 months later one of the guests at the wedding who is a cousin hosted her husband's 60th at the same venue.

    As has been said before she needs something in her life to be worried over if that's her reaction.
