New venue 42 days away

I think that does sound perfectly fine

My immediate reaction was that that sounds perfectly fine!
As soon as I typed it, I thought it might be a little bit confusing to send out a new RSVP card with something that technically isn't an invitation. I think you can do it that way for people you've already received "yes" RSVPs from, but for everyone else, you may want to send only the notification card and include a note asking them to contact you another way if they send their RSVP after you mailed the notes but before you receive them.

...Have you checked your contract? I understand that the pandemic has changed things, but you did have an agreed upon price.

I'd certainly look it over.

View Quoted Comment That makes so much sense. I was even thinking just adding an RSVP online on our website but that makes me wonder about the older people and who wouldn’t actually RSVP that way

Now can they up charge $50? Is that stated anywhere in your contract?

***How sorry

View Quoted Comment No where. Because it’s outdoors in a tent now with bathrooms, tables and chairs and the dance floor apparently that means I pay an extra $50 a person. I’ve brought up my contract many times, but their hands are tied. I’ve contacted all the brides I can find that are also getting married around the same time and they’ve all postponed. I think I’m just paying for their tent myself really.

View Quoted Comment That’s what it seems like. If you moved the venue would you lose out on a bunch of money?

View Quoted Comment We actually lucked out so much because I found out someone cancelled their 9/19 wedding and I jumped on that. The location was great because all my vendors won’t charge me traveling fees where it is. Except the Officant apparently she wants another $75 now. So we’re in the process of moving it. It just sucks because we loved our original venue.

View Quoted Comment Well that’s good! Do you love this venue just as much?
