Speak now or forever lose 50 bucks

So I'm going to a wedding of an old friend of mine today, not a great friend but a friend nonetheless, which I R.S.V.P'd for months ago. My dilemma is giving them a gift, which a few months ago I had no problem with. Apparently I'm supposed to give them at least 50 bucks. Now even if it was my last 50, I would be more than happy to help them out, but I'm hesitant for a few reasons.
1) I've never even met this girl he is marrying and they've been together for a while
2) All he could talk about yesterday was his "bachelor party" and how awesome the strip club he went to was and how cool it was that he cheated on her while there. I'm engaged myself and just think this is completely ridiculous. I would never cheat on my girl and I haven't in 9 years.
3) Pretty sure the only reason they are getting married is because they were too stupid to use protection
So what do you think shroomery? I know its completely fucked to show up to a wedding and give them nothing, but its making me today

give them nothing, what the fuck... 50 bucks would probably be for him to spend on a hooker.

You answered your own question. Just call and cancel your attendance. I'm sure they'll be more than happy to save on the dinner and booze you'd consume.

better not to show up at all than go to this event with those sorts of feelings - however justified they may be.

Cheers !

Get good and drunk, and when the guys asks "is there any reason...", mention him cheating with the strippers.

A coupon for a big box of condoms of his choice and a strip of Morning After Pills. Hey, you're supportive of the marriage, isnt that enough?

Shroomery, you have already made me feel better about this day, I love this place. I'm going to take Dr. G's advice and just go in between what i was contemplating with 25 bucks. Then when i get to the reception and get some drinks in me, I may give them the condoms and proceed with the following dance!

What a douchebag, my brother almost did the same thing at his bachelor party. His wife is ugly and 200+ lbs I didnt think his standards could get any lower but boy was I wrong, this butt ugly girl who looked like some type of troll was there who came with one of my brothers friends and my brother was actualy going to fuck this ugly skank and cheat on his wife. He ended up not doing it because the guy that brought her ended up fucking her instead, my brother was actualy pissed that he didnt fuck her it was disgusting.
