help me out ladies: I am a wedding hostage...
So, the day before yesterday, my 92 year old grandma asks me if her cousin's son can come to the wedding, because he would be driving 4 of the guests who are in their 80's. Otherwise, those 4 people can't come -even though 2 of those people already RSVP'd that they were coming.
So, of course, I flipped out because my grandma made me feel like I was wrong for having a wedding in NY, and how would I expect anyone to get there. so, fine...FINE! Let him come...
Now, fi gets a call from his deceased father's cousin. She and her siblings and all of their children are invited. We called this lady a few months ago because we needed help with names and addresses.
She called to ask us if my Fi's first cousins on his dad's side were invited. (NO, there had been drama years back between fis' dad and their dad and fi doesn't even know all of their names.) Well, fi's aunt died last week (she was also his godmother, but he barely ever saw her because of the old drama. So, now they expect fi to invite his first cousins because they will be flying in to NJ for the week of our wedding to hold a mass for their mother...
We are OUT of invites, reception cards, and RSVP cards. I don't even know most of these people. But, they are fi's first cousins... I am SO angry about this!!!
I feel like I am being held hostage! Of course, I haven't received ANY RSVPs from the people who are asking/telling us to invite additional people!
Edited to say: Fi's family is still waiting for an answer on this...WHAT SHOULD I DO?![]()
