Matilda,
I would agree that it would not be a compromise. A compromise implies that we worked something out that we're both comfortable with. I would not leave for a weekend in order for her to have a party. She have have a party if I were away for the weekend.

I will be away for a weekend in August for my parent's anniversary party, so we'll see if she acts on her party idea.

It would be a dance party, so it would be coed.
