Hey Dylsa,
Gees mate, thats a "no brainer!"
If you really want to go to a wedding, almost every church in the country has one every Saturday, just choose your denomination and away you go

Kitestock is on only once a year! Your mate, if he really is a mate, will respect your devotion to the sport by you attending Kitestock in his absence and will probably applaud and commend you for bringing back some Dongara trinkets like a stubby holder and loads of photos of the most excellent fun you'll have.
Weddings are over in an hour, Kitestock goes for 4 days!

You may even be the winner of a brand new kite or board!

He'll get over it, his missus won't but hey, if you have a new kite, who cares? [}:)]
Good winds,
