Is it really that much hassle?
Besides it might be cheaper.

Flying anywhere is a massive fucking hassle
Flying to somewhere and then back less than 48 hours later is even more of a fucking hassle.

My mate said to me "Oh and if I get married I'm having a hen week abroad and you're coming. None of your sun-allergy shit."
I said, "I'm not coming. Slags Abroad isn't my thing, I don't like vomiting up cocktails, and I'm not paying money to sit under the shade in searing heat while you wenches call me miserable."
It's a wonder I have any friends.

at least you're honest!
who the hell would want to spend money to go away for a week and celebrate someone elses wedding? that's ridiculous. And selfish of the bride.

See her other mates would all love it
So it would be worthy of their money and leisure time.
Not mine though!

I just have a friend that would be the same way, she's done it for years with loads of stuff
it's gotten to the point that she doesn't ask me to do anything anymore

I don't find it too bad
In most cases not taking hold luggage and doing online check-in seems to take some of the pain out of it. I suppose starting from London adds to the hassle somewhat.
