When is it OK for bridesmiad to leave a wedding reception
Im a bridesmaid in a wedding. The ceremony & reception are to be in the same location. The wedding is on a Sunday & it will be a long day. I have to work the next day. I was wondering how early is it acceptable to leave the reception? I think the reception will end at 10pm, not necessarily very late. I will not have a guest with me to keep me "entertained" either & so Im sure Ill prefer leaving early! Im never 100% comfortable at these functions as it is! However, as a bridesmaid, Im not sure if this is seen as rude. I will do my duty and stay as long as it seems necessary. But is there a rule of thumb on this kind of thing? Thank you!

Dear BellaFleur:
You should leave either after the couple leaves, or at the end of the reception. The wedding party doesn't usually leave before the couple.
