I'm so frustrated today when my mom and I were going to the gym she told me that when she was attending a baby shower for one of her friend's daughters, my wedding came up in conversation. Another one of the friend's daughters commented that "OH! That's the wedding WE weren't invited to!". The mother and her husband were invited at the request of my mom, as her friend. I haven't seen her daughter since high school. We weren't in the same grade and I hardly knew her. Now my mom is claiming that she thinks I should have invited the entire family, because that's just what you do! Apparently another set of my mom's friends, friends from church, commented that their adult children weren't invited either! I hardly know their children at all! What ticks me off even more is the first daughter is planning her own wedding and should know how frustrating it is to get the perfect guest list that matches your budget. I'm just appalled at the lack of tact and manners of people!

Maaaaaaaaaaaaaybe the friend's daughter should shut her mouth. She didn't need to mention anything at all, especially in a whiny, bratty way like 'Oh, that's the one WE weren't invitied to."

Rude.

Balls. Really. It's amazing how weddings bring out the rude in people that you don't even know!

Since she had to point out the fact that she wasnt invited to your wedding, I probably would've pointed out the fact that you were not invited to her baby shower either so obviously you are not that close... maybe next time she'll shut her mouth.

This is a situation I quite understand. My parents have a few couple friends coming who they have known forever and I am happy to have them there. However for numbers sake I didn't invite their children, some of them I have on fb but we are not close or really great friends by any stretch. So far no one has said anything but I worry once the save the dates go out and the questions start popping up.

Worried that this WILL happen at our wedding. A couple of our friends always bring their 25 yr old daughter to our vacation home, dinners, celebrations. And now the little sidekick is bringing a friend. What to do. We know we'll loose the lifelong friendship, but I'm willing to kick it to the curb.

My relatives were so angry that their adult child was not invited to the wedding that they didn't show up for the wedding, never told anyone they weren't coming either. We all thought there had been a medical crisis! We texted them from their empty seats at the reception. Meanwhile, there was no current relationship with him at all...not since they were kids! Terribly hurt
