Well, I guess the real question is how good of friends do you expect to be with her after the wedding? If you are best friends now (and since she is your lil) did she plan for you to be in the wedding party? How far away is the wedding from where you now live? All of this leads up to the fact that if you still want to be as close to her after the wedding as you are now you should probably attend. I know the mature thing to think is that if you're really good friends she'll understand, but in my experience most women still take it personally. If it's only a couple hour flight maybe you can just take Thurs and Fri off. You're already giving up your real weekend for the camping trip anyway.
