My first RSVP that has decided they will bring a guest not invited!!!!!!!

HELP ME!!!! What do you do?????? It is a person that FH works with and we only invited the co-workers from my job and his, NO DATES. He put himself and his date on the response card!!!

FH's coworker, so he should tell him politely...sorry you must come solo.

yeah that puts you in a awkward position, but i agree...it's your FH's responsibility to tell him.

I third that - Your FH needs to explain to him that he cannot bring a date.

Yeah you can leave it up to your FH...But the question is will he address it?

yup....this happened to us also. We just let it go, but were not very happy.

they should be the one embarassed. i think that is so pushy, unless it was a misunderstanding. definitely have your fiance explain that while you'd love to have everyone with a guest, you simply cannot afford to, and all co-workers were invited solo, as they know others there - they can attend together and party together!

Your FH needs to address...I also don't think that his co-worker did anything intentional or was being stupid...If i were to receive an invitation to a wedding, i would automatically think of bringing FH, and if he received one I would expect to go...unless you tell people you can't bring a guest and they still do it then thats wrong, otherwise he meant nothing wrong.

I don't understand people sometimes!

I think your FH should tell him that although you would have loved to invite everyone with a guest, you both had to make some cuts due to costs and so you both decided to invite co-workers only, no guests.

thanks for the advice! Only problem is FH feels awkward in approaching the guy! I think we may let it slide but I am not happy about it at alllllll.

The guy also apparently seemed very excited about being invited to the wedding, so I feel kind of bad. I just feel bad because we did not invite guests with anyone really, other than married couples or engaged couples. So I have close friends who are coming without guests and now this co-worker will be bringing one!

I do not understand it.

How do people NOT get this concept??? Only bring a guest if your invite says 'AND GUEST'! DUH!!

I'm so sorry you have to deal with this awkward situation....

Is it his wife or just a date? Unfortunately, if you let it slide, won't your friends be annoyed that they came solo and here is this one guy with a date? Maybe they won't notice...

We're not up to invites yet, but I dread these situations. Good luck and let us know how you decide to handle it!

wow that is nervy! i guess if someone says they are coming and dont end up showing then i guess it wont be a big deal. but your FH should politly tell him that the invite had his name on it only

hmmm thats hard then because its not just some random girl.

But wait didn't you say in a previous post that you only let married couples and engaged couples, then people can't say anything if he has a date, since there will be other married and engaged couples. Plus if he sees married and engaged couples but told he cant bring his fiancee then he might get upset about that.

yes but coworkers we did not invite with husbands or fiances or whatnot bc we cannot afford it!

I solved that problem by inviting everyone with a date

sorry that happened...if you FH wont speak up, you have no choice but to accept it. But then other co workers may get pissy that this guy brought someone and they didn't....bottom line, I think you fh needs to say something...
