Response: If it's my close friend's wedding then I should definitely attend no matter whether I am willing to attend it or not. Being a close friend comes with a responsibility. I value friendships in my life. It is morally wrong to think of skipping my friend's wedding. It's not ethical also. I can address this situation by simply attending the wedding. There are a lot of things in life that you have to do unwillingly. I would treat this as one such situation and go with the flow.
