Has anyone else experienced this?

We have the same with someone my b2b used to work with. Every time she speaks she interrogates us as to whether we've invited certain people that she knows, that they used to work with perhaps 10 years ago but are no longer really in contact with.

If you have a browse round here you'll find a lot of people have problems with family and friends assuming certain people will be invited, or that "they must have forgotten to put them on the list" or "must have been lost in the post" or something silly like that when the simple truth is that we have no desire or need to invite people that both of us hardly know or haven't seen for 10 years, particularly when you think of some of the costs involved with inviting people to weddings!

There isn't an easy answer, it is upsetting, and whenever my b2b gets a text or email from this particular person you can see her turning purple before she's even opened it because you just know it's going to be "I spoke to such and such the other week and they said they hadn't had a wedding invite". We know they haven't had an invite - because we didn't invite them.

It is very common. Weddings bring out the worst in a lot of people, particularly family and friends rather than the B&G themselves, and you just have to grin and bear it really.

Hi Again, The Uncle isn't coming he is the only one along with his partner to decline, just a flat no, no sorry or good wishes involved at all, we have now asked two evening guests and they are very touched to be bumped up!
