Rant: Rude People

Oh I've had people doing this too and I'm like... go the F away

I just don't understand what might make someone think this was okay. FH and I would never dream of inviting someone to come with us...it is weird.

I keep getting asked if people can bring extra people too. I'm getting suuuper annoyed to the point where the next person who asks may get snapped at.

Ugh! People! Also, why would someone want to go to a wedding that they weren't personally invited to by the couple?

So sorry you have to deal with ignorent people

My mom said for her wedding she had someone RSVP with 10! She said she almost fainted. They were my dads side of the family and he didn't want to say no. So my mom called them and told them absolutely not.

Put your foot down. It's very rude of them

@DandT715 - free food & alcohol of course! Lol

Yesterday I was working on a coworker's mac book, who will also be getting married soon. While I was using it she got a text notification (I didn't meant to lurk, it popped out while I was working) the message read something like "my family will not be able to make it to the wedding, but can I bring some of my friends in their place?" I mean I get her guest wouldn't want to attend alone, but "friends" as in bringing in multiple people, is that necessary? I was so shocked I can't believe people have those requests, so thankful I have a heads up because of WW. I'm dreading the day I have to send my invites out now.

@FutureMrsL ... I am dying at these stories. So horrible!

@MrsRushinin - haha! Definitely, but I'd feel really awkward going to a wedding that I obviously wasn't invited to. So weird.

I keep wondering if Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson will show up in somebody's BAM. LOL

Wow, I really cannot believe people do this stuff, I'm so sorry you're dealing with this! It sounds like you have said all the right things, I don't know what else to tell you if they won't listen to your very reasonable and standard requests for clear RSVPs

I had a friend who is invited, asked her if she is bringing GF. (They have been in an on/off situation but still live together. She said no, shes coming alone. Then she messages me about how a friend from HS is offended i didn't invite them (havent talked to them in 10 years) and can she bring them or maybe 2 people. Um, no.

This is why I chose a destination wedding. At this point if a plane ticket isn't booked you're not going. Even my situation people were rude similar to this. Folks who haven't rsvp'd assume them as no and they simply won't have a seat at the reception. Why pat for someone who may not make it and is telling you so. Almost over!!!

Totally rude! People just think that they can show up to any wedding and that 'it doesn't matter' if they invite people. I swear people really don't understand what all goes into planning a wedding.

If the XYZ show up I'd just tell them that I have no room/space for them since they didn't rsvp.

Ugh super annoying and inconsiderate. I agree with other posters though. I think some people may just be oblivious to how much it costs and how much time is needed to plan for extra guests. Hang in there!

Ah! That is rude. I think you're saying the right things though. Stick to your guns!

People wanting to bring extras & I'm over here trying to cut the guest list! LOLOLOL

I had a bridesmaid tell me her MOM wanted her to ask me if she could come, FH cousin finally decided he wanted to bring his girlfriend, and a couple decide that they are 80% sure they will be at the wedding after asking them multiple times before I turned in final count...... I turned in my final count on May 25, they decided to do all this on the 29.....

@Chelsealeigh218 LOL, right? NOBODY is bringing extras I scraped by just inviting what I did!
