Guest rant! No need to reply.

littlelady01, 4 October, 2010 at 20:05 Posted on Planning 0 10

I'm getting married in 12 days and now I'm hearing on the grape vine certain members of my partners family aren't coming. There not important members of the family but its just anoying that, 1 they have left it so late and 2 the most annoying reason of all they haven't told us. So now I've got to find out if we can cancel meals otherwise I'm going to end up with 4 maybe 5 extra meals.

No need to reply just wanted to rant.

    That's really rude, do you think it's definitely true or has someone got their wires crossed? I'd be livid. Hope all gets sorted and you can cancel their meals if necessary. x

    Going to get partner to ring tomorrow its not all bad as it means I can now invite a friend and her partner to the whole day now instead of just evening. I'm just miffed that I'm hearing it second hand, one of the excuses I've heard is because they have just got a new puppy and they can't leave him alone as he is only 9 weeks old and can't ask anyone else.

    If they don't turn up/can't come (at this late stage) and don't bother to let you know so you can reallocate thier spaces, I'd send them an invoice after the event for their wasted place...

    I agree with everyone else - downright rude. But do check it's definite before you reallocate their space Smiley smile

    I really don't think a lot of people actually realise how much it costs you to invite them to their wedding these days - I certainly had no idea until we started planning ours that it's easy to spend £100 per person if you factor in the dresses etc as well as their actual food/drink supplied on the day.
