My best friend had a destination wedding where I was the best man. I have known the guy since kindergarten so I felt like I had to go with it. It was probably over 5k after me and my wife had paid for everything and while it was a good time I wouldn't do it again for any other friend. For the money I'd rather go on my own vacation where we're free to do whatever we want on any given day.
Conversely, when me and my wife first started dating her very close friend was having a cruise wedding and because of the timing and financial constraints she opted not to go. Her friend said she understood at the time, but that pretty much ended their friendship, I don't think they even talk anymore.
