Oh you didn't get your invite?

Erin, on June 25, 2016 at 4:59 PM Posted in Community Conversations 0 30

..you probably aren't invited.

Some random relative of FHs just wrote on FMILs Facebook wall that she didn't get her invite so is she invited and where is the hotel block. On her public Facebook wall! I feel so bad that FMIL has to deal with it and can't believe people have the nerve to do this.

/end rant/

Have obnoxious RSVP issues? Let them out!

    It's been okay so far but FH's church has a tradition where the entire congregation is invited to the ceremony. Not happening at ours. So bracing for the questions to start once invites go out.

    Oh man Teaowl.. I hope they don't all just show!

    Melissa- right!? I'm fuming. It's so inconsiderate. I showed FH and he said "yeah that's why she's not invited!" So apparently this is common with her.

    Wow! Your poor FMIL for having to deal with that. Thankfully it wasn't on your Facebook!

    That is insane. I can't believe how people are. At least do it in private. Sorry she has to deal with that, and good luck that the drama doesnt come back to you.

    My best friends mom just got married and she posted a countdown on her Facebook and someone commented on there saying "Oops looks like my invite got lost in the mail! That's okay because I asked and figured out the details! See you there!" We were all like wtf...

    Since they had he balls to ask so publicly they should have the balls to get rejected publicly. "Of course not."

    I could understand assuming something like this if, say, the bride or groom was like your first cousin that you talk to regularly or something and other cousins and maybe even further out relatives had gotten invites and you hadn't. Then I would almost be afraid of looking rude by not RSVPing. But even then I wouldn't post anything publicly! I would likely just asking something like "So how are the wedding plans going...?" and hope they would mention something.

    Haha materantiqua FH totally wants to but since it's technically a relative and FMIL will have a hard enough time I stopped him

    FH and I own a fencing and remodel company. We went to bid a job, and mentioned we were getting married. Then they started asking all kinds of details and gave the whole "make sure you send us an invitation" spill. They aren't total strangers, we live in a small town so everyone knows everyone. But they aren't people we see often and would think to invite to the wedding lol

    We haven't mailed out the invitations yet, however I wouldn't put it past someone to say or do something outrageous. Some people just don't know etiquette lol.

    Ugh!! Hopefully she can delete that comment and just message her privately. Some people are so unsure on how to use social media!

    A girl I work with (that stalks me, she desperately wants to think we are BFF's even though I never give her attention) texted me a few nights ago. "I heard your wedding is on **** day!" I know she was fishing for an invite or info. I've kept things on the down low at work because I'm not inviting anyone really, we are having a small intimate wedding. I replied "yes my wedding is that month, but I'm not advertising my date because we are doing family only and a handful of friends"

    That shut her down.

    @K&D we just hired a new temp at my office and I had my wedding koozies shipped there. When they came in I was so excited I was showing them off to another coworker and the new temp grabs one and says "can't wait!". I didn't get my koozie back...

    An invited guest chased my mom at church with her sisters address because she wants her sister to be invited. My mom said she is on her way to work she will get it next Sunday (mom not going next sunday) Then same lady went to my aunt to give her the address. My mom already notified my aunt and she hopped in her car and drove off saying I'll take it next sunday. She won't be there either. I just laughed so hard. I think the lady would get the memo soon.

    I have received PM from both my side and FH side. We are having a small wedding of parents, siblings, and a friend each. It was either the 31 we are having or 250 people for must invites. We both have huge families.

    Only reason I get the PM is because my wall on FB is set where no one can post to it.

    Ugh. I'm dealing with someone who assumes they're going to be invited as well. I had a post earlier about this person. Sure enough when one of my best friends went in today for her appt after I was talking to her in regards to this person, said person starts asking my poor friend all these wedding questions. She gave short and simple answers and didn't say too much or give details away but I dread the awkwardness. But I shouldn't be pressured to have someone at my wedding when all I see them is for my business appointments.
