I’m in that position at the moment, well sort of. Groom is getting married in his home country (Irish resident) and inviting us to come along. I don’t really want to go.

Not always m8. Given enough notice and a decent location people can make a great holiday out of it. Of course, any declined invitations are completely reasonable too.
I've been to a family wedding abroad and most people stayed for the week. Made a great holiday out of it.

It is a great reason to decline too, easier than a local wedding.

Why should I pay for a holiday in a place that is chosen by someone else ?
If people want to get married abroad then off with them, as in the couple.
I cannot ever understand that mindset of choosing to get married abroad and then expect all guests to pay for their travel and accommodation.

I got married in Málaga twice and people had no issues coming from Ireland. They had a great week's holiday as well.

Could say the same for weddings anywhere you need to stay overnight

Rather a random thing to get cranky about on a Saturday morning!

One of my family got married in Italy years ago. I loved it. Brilliant chance for us all to be away together.

Horses for courses I guess.
