Today, I found out less than three weeks before my wedding that my fiancé will lose his new, great paying job, unless we cancel our nonrefundable honeymoon. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I found out that I have to reschedule my upcoming honeymoon because my office will be understaffed that week, due to the boss going on vacation right after my wedding. Oh, yeah, and he's in my bridal party. FML
Today, I found out that my fiancé's parents are refusing to pay for a honeymoon, because they "didn't have one, so neither will we", meaning they won't pay for a single thing for our wedding. FML
Today, I found my fiancé is cheating on me. Our wedding is in 26 days and everything is already paid for. FML
Today, I found out that my fiancé is going to be deployed on our wedding day. FML
Today, I discovered that my fiancé had responded to an online missed connection posting. He has been emailing, exchanging pictures and making plans to go out with this girl. We are supposed to be married in the fall and just put down the non-refundable deposit on our reception site. FML
Today, I had to cancel my $15,000 wedding and send a mass e-mail to 90 guests that there won’t be a wedding. My now-ex fiance got fired from his job. Normally this wouldn’t be an issue, if it wasn’t for the fact he got his colleague pregnant. FML
Today, my marriage is one week away. Despite all the challenges we faced during COVID, we powered through everything. Today is also the day my work decided to tell me they're letting me go. I now have to either go on my improvised honeymoon or job hunt. FML
Today, I was told by one of my bridesmaids that she can't afford the travel costs to get to my wedding, after telling me that she didn't need me to organize alternate free travel for her. I'm getting married in less than two weeks. FML
Today, my company let me go after 3 months. A day before my wedding and with zero advance notice. FML
Today, my fiancée decided to go on a "vacation." Our wedding is tomorrow. FML

Well, OP, which will be most benefitial in the long run? It sucks that it's non-refundable and all, but you might be able to persuade them to change the dates or something.

don't be sad. just postpone the trip. either way, it feels the same to have sex at home than in Hawaii.

Just reschedule your honeymoon for later. at least you'll be able to afford it.

Go. Without. Him. Or better yet, make it a gift for your in-laws and go on one with him later.

this is completely your fault. did you never think "hey, most companies require me to work for a certain amount of time before i can start taking vacation days"???? that's just common sense and plain stupidity on your part. this is the exact reason many people get married BEFORE starting a new job

Some people plan marriages and honeymoons many months in advance. They may very well have planned it well with all the information they had at the time.

Enough with your sensibility. Can't you just say something extreme and not well thought out?

Granted, this sucks, but only a bit. If the job is that great, then it'll be worth it. It's kind of an early lesson in compromise. If the tickets genuinely aren't refundable, then why don't you just go yourself and take a friend or relative? OK, so it's not the honeymoon you expected, but it's better than blowing off the whole thing, and if you set about it with imagination and a sense of adventure, it could actually be fun. You've just set out to spend the rest of your lives together - there'll be time for Bora Bora later.

That sucks.

You're only supposed to have one wedding. It's pretty much inevitable you'll have more than one job in your working life. Also isn't it normal to tell a new employer from the outset about any existing holidays/similar commitments? And do you want to work for someone who would begrudge you your honeymoon?

If his job is that great, let him keep it and book another honeymoon, give this one to yours or his parents as a second honeymoon
