My Gramma is having a fit because I don't want to invite like 5 of my cousins. Mainly because I haven't seen them since the year before I graduated in 2003. I'm like look if I write them an email asking for their addresses and they don't respond to me then I'm guessing they don't give hoot about...

I'm like look if I write them an email asking for their addresses and they don't respond to me then I'm guessing they don't give hoot about coming to this wedding- so Gramma gets out her trusty address book and gives me the addresses herself. Two of them have gotten married and I wasn't invited to their weddings but my Gramma says "Tierra! They're FAMILY! Uninvite some of your aquaintences if you're worried about headcount" lol she's so funny sometimes.

    How much you want to bet that your cousins who got married had this EXACT same convo with your grandmother about inviting you? haha...

    And they obviously decided not to and were ok with it...sometimes family you havent seen in years would still want to be invited, but if they havent responded back to you, then yeah, I would take that to mean they are interested.
