I was invited to a wedding, I think?

Lucky me, on December 3, 2013 at 10:36 AM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 11

A friend is getting married. She was at our wedding. Here's the thing. I was invited to her shower. On FB she posted a status about invites going out so people were joking around saying how they got hers or didnt (the ones who said they didn't were like her parents etc). So I chimed in (which I usually never do) and said I didn't get mine. She messages me and says that she sent it. Fast forward now 2 weeks later and I still have not gotten in. I am fine with not being invited but now I'm like should I say something like "hey never got the invite"or maybe I'm not invited and she feels bad? I don't know what to do!

    I'd just call her. A couple of our invites actually DID get lost in the mail. It was annoying, but when we got no response, WE called.

    I think I'd wait for her to be all like, are you coming or not, because I don't like to put people on the spot.

    I had one invite get lost in the mail. It was a little ironic because it was my uncles and my parents hate him, so he thought that he wasn't invited. I agree with Caitlin - I'd let her know that you still haven't gotten it yet.

    If you are invited, she will call you at the RSVP deadline to follow up since she will not have heard from you

    also, this is reason number 1000 why you shouldn't post stuff like this on Facebook...

    I thought about that Paris but I'm like what if she isnt organized like me? What if I was invited and I don't go because I never got an invite? She's not like a close friend so its awkward but I was invited to the shower. I'm always invited to everything in the past so it would be weird to not be invited.

    Yeah if she hadn't posted that I would have never even known they went out. Now that I know they have gone out and she said in her message that she sent them and privatly messaged me and said one was sent to me, I'm like what to do?!

    I would wait until they call you about not RSVP'ing than you can say again.. I never received the invite.

    I wouldn't ask again...that seems weird to me. Unless of course she is a really good friend.

    I would just straight out ask her. Skip the bs of if she sent it or not. Just say Hi Jane Doe, How's it going? I'm working on my calendar and I was just wondering if I am invited to your wedding? If so, my invite def got lost in the mail lol. If not, I understand, I just want to plan ahead. Thanks! Have a great night!

    Well she said she sent it! Why would she lie and say she sent it if she didn't? To me that's more awkward than letting her know if she got it. If I really wasn't inviting you I'd send an inbox message saying "oh we have limited space or budget". Unless I'm confused and you are talking about the shower invitation not the wedding one.

    She then may construe it as rude not to rsvp if she did in fact send one.Maybe you can send a tactful message stating it may have gotten lost in the mail or something to the effect that you understand if she is unable to invite her, you just wanted to double check.

    If the wedding is out of town you need to make travel plans, so I don't see how you can just not say anything to her.

    Hahah Amy this is a different girl! Howerever, I am still undecided about that girls wedding. She did finally say something to me about not coming (3 months after my wedding!).

    @Jaime the shower was this past weekend. I couldn't go but was invited. I also sent a gift.

    Hmm mixed advice here! See I know maybe I shoukld wait until she calls for my RSVP but she may not have it together like me and may say whatever whoever said their coming that's my final count and that's it. I will proably just ask and say something on the lines like it's ok if you can't invite me, I understand the cost of a wedding.
