Hurt feelings

Is it just me or are some of you having people you didn't invite (people you don't know) get mad... For for example I have people telling my mom why weren't they invited.. Don't want to be rude but I don't know these people

    Some of my co-workers are mad they aren't invited to my wedding. One said he was gonna go because he knows the day it's on and found out where. Totally weird.

    I have a coworker, I will use that term loosely, she works in a department across the hall from me. Anyways I have been ducking and diving her as she keeps asking for her invitation. It is so obnoxious, I told her she will be waiting forever. Oh, and she asked for a Plus 1 too (for her friend)!

    I had my ceremony last year and someone actually upset because I didn't send an invitation to her. She is in CA, and I am in NH. I was only having a church ceremony, that's it. In the end, we had to invite her for our reception. Honestly it's not like she's gonna come. I can't believe people think it's okay to ask to be invited. It is not!

    Fortunately, we had such a small wedding, we were able to say, "It's just immediate family and a few close friends," and not have to deal with that. Plus, the fact it was 8 hours from our house discouraged people from wanting to come.

    Haha omg! For some reason they think they are entitled to be invited and be a guest at a wedding of someone who they don't know. Like excuse me do I know you. Don't sweat it it's common for people to be the green eye monsters.
    I have this old friend I helped her out for her wedding however I lost contact over the years and we aren't even close like before. She messaged me like 3 or more times to invite her to my wedding. Which I am however I am only giving her a plus 1 that's it.

    FMIL was so worried about this- at first. But she started telling people it’s a “smaller wedding” - it’s normal sized lol. Then she finally started telling people, “we’ve decided it’s important for them to have their friends and families above all else since it’s their wedding. We apologize but there just wasn’t room for everyone” it works.

    Yea I have had the same exact situation go down, and its stressful. I don't know them so its not as awkward for me to not invite them, but I think its hard for my mom. Our venue is small and our extended family is large.

    I have a cousin who I'm friends with but rarely ever see/talk to unless its a family function who got upset I didn't ask her to go dress shopping with me. I never responded to her DM questioning it and I will definitley pretend I never saw it when I do see her next. lol

    FH and I work at the same place with over $2,000 others. A guy we both run into occasionally recently tried to add us both on FB (Neither of us accepted). He just this week congratulated me on our engagement that happened last June! The next day he asked FH if he was invited to the wedding. Ha we know nothing personal about this guy and vice versa. FH told him sorry we are having a small wedding with family and a few close friends...we have a guest list of 200. I don't feel bad for these people that feel comfortable even asking, that would be rude even if we did know the guy!!
