OK so basically I may not make my minimum by several people. We invited a total of 180 & my minimum is 125 & FH & I basically feel really hurt that family is about 75% of the no's.
Anyway, I originally left several friends off of my invite list b/c either we've drifted apart over the past year or they live in NJ & the drive would be annoying & didn't want them to feel pressured to attend and also b/c our original invite number was so high I never would have thought that I might not make my minimum.
Well, I still have invites that I can send to about 10 more people.... My question is is it rude to send them the invites at this time in the planning? The rsvp's that I have have an rsvp date of 9/1/07 & I'd probably mail them out on 8/16/07?

Must be something about the September Royalton weddings! I feel your pain. Today was our respond by date and we are way under too. And a lot of our no's were family that are local that came to FH's sister's wedding earlier this year. :(
Have you mentioned to the Royalton yet? I wonder if they will work with us at all? Or maybe give us some of the stuff we cut out for costs back?

no, I haven't mentioned it b/c I think that with my additional people I may just make it. At least, I hope. I'm sure if you told the RH, they would do their best to make it up to you.
But yeah, it totally *****! At first I felt bad b/c it was mainly FH's family that said no & he always went to their crap but now I just feel pissed for him.

I haven't mentioned it to the hall yet because we still have some non-responders out there. Praying they all say yes! By next week I think I'll call and see what they will do.

I would definitely send them out! If anyone ever asked you about it, they would understand anyway...but I doubt they will ask!! If you have the extra invites, I say go for it! You have nothing to lose!! GL!

Do it. As long as you send them out before the RSVP date.
