Not the wedding but my shower, my cousin, of which I attend 4 showers of hers, couldn't come because it was 'family' day and her mother, my aunt, couldn't come because she couldn't risk driving and breaking down and missing her granddaughter's recital 3 hours later in the day.

I wouldn't take it personally - a few more heads to include into that final headcount!
I would never be THAT honest - and that's a BS response anyway....I swear it steams from being CHEAP and not wanting to give a present or being JEALOUS.
That being said, I sent out STD's and received a call from my 'friend' that said - I'm sorry, I just don't see myself going there without a date and sitting by myself - I just won't enjoy it, and it's a WASTE of money!
W T F??????? She would know 45% of the entire wedding guests!

Actually these people should still send a gift even if they aren't attending (even if it's for tennis lessons!)
I can't believe some of the responses you gals are getting - crazy!!

My really good friend for a long time....had a similar excuse. She didnt want to come because she didnt have a boyfriend!!!!

Honestly, I know this is the same real reason she is not coming, and that is fine. I'd honestly be so much more OK w/ her saying she didnt have anyone to bring than to say she has tennis lessons.
Besides, she lives in Brooklyn, Im getting married in WAding River, its a hike. And I wouldnt expect her to go there alone.....but it just cracks me up....not only are you so freakin late w/ your response.......but thats the excuse you write??? Its just so un-real

I've gone to plenty of weddings SOLO or bought a friend with me (female & male) - it's a poor excuse to not attend a wedding for a close friend!
I'm from Brooklyn - can I come? I'll be her replacement!
p.s. No one in Brooklyn has tennis lessons...

'I go hunting that week'
ya know what's sad? I can relate to this response. My Dad would totally not go to a wedding during the two weeks a year he could possibly shoot bambi. Hunting is an addiction-they get ready for season all year round.
