A couple were "annoyed" after finding out they were not invited to their friend's "real" 40th birthday after paying £200 to attend the earlier “surprise” party.
On the popular online forum Mumsnet, the woman explained how the couple were invited to a prestigious venue and expected to pay £100 each to be part of the party that was scheduled between 4pm and 8pm. However, later on in the evening, they found out there was an after-party which they were not invited to.
On the 'am I being unreasonable' thread, she wrote: "We are a married couple and we have friends, “Eva and Matt”. We invite them to our house frequently and are super-hospitable to them in our home. They have a close circle of friends who live near to them and we know they do a lot of entertaining and socialising without us (obviously fine, we’re all grownups).
