Postponing the wedding

Mary , on August 16, 2016 at 9:40 PM

Posted in Etiquette and Advice 168

So, y'all have heard already I'm postponing the wedding for a while but I do have a question. Is it rude to go ahead and have the shower that is scheduled for Saturday? Both of us have people coming in from out of town/ out of state for it. What should I do?

    I hate when I miss things. Someone catch me up. Lol but if you're date is very far cancel it. If you have a bunch if out of town guests I would go ahead and have it. I'm not sure.

    I was about to go to bed but this might be worth hanging around for.

    Mary it's not rude at all. In fact you should host a self catered or potluck shower each month until your wedding. Then you will receive multiple gifts from everyone. Maybe even ask for money at each and that can be used to fund your wedding.

    I would cancel it if a date has not been set and a deposit put down on a venue.

    I would be very upset if I asked the bride at her shower when her wedding date was and where she's having it and got a, "not sure yet. We postponed but we'll let you know. Thanks so much for coming to my shower though!"

    I would rather be inconvenienced with cancelling travel arrangements.

    Jenny, yes! But, also some tasty treats to wash down all the alcohol. Oh and get ASR some kittynip.

    New plan. Instead of a shower, you throw a surprise wedding for ASR. Still lots of alcohol and the live streaming.

    I'm sticking with the theory that Mary is up there with Buffet Karen as one of the most elaborate trolls that has graced WW.

    And @BeachDreams did you bring the butter too or do I need to grab some?

    Lol. ETA but in all seriousness, I wouldn't want to attend a shower for a wedding that's been postponed, super awkward for conversation and for gifts. I'd rather be inconvenienced and have my weekend than feel obligated to show up to an awkward shower.

    I'd be pissed AF if I was a guest at this shower and learned the wedding was postponed for two years later

    I'm here, I'm here!

    Mary, don't post and ghost.

    You guys should give out M&Ms with ASRs face on them as favors for the wedding.

    Have you posted a picture of the little devil yet?
