no responses

Ok, I really need to vent because this has been bothering. My shower is sometime this month, I have no idea when or where. I know my MOH has sent the invites like 3 weeks ago. My FH is late for everything so I had spoke to my MOH and asked her how the plans were coming along.

She says to me not one of FH family has responded to the shower. I couldnt believe what I was hearing. I had specifically told FMIL 3 times not to forget to call. So I told my MOH to call FH's SIL and find out what the situation is and have her contact these people

I call FH at work and tell him to call his mom and find out what the situation is. He calls but she wasnt home. He gets home from work at 9:30 and I tell him to call his mom again. This time she is home he asks her if she responded and she said no she is waiting for his sister.

he informs her she needs to call. The SIL was there so i had her get on the phone and I said that I was very upset and she asked why. I said because no one has called including herself. She starts laughing and said 'we'll you know how we are, we wait for the last minute. Everyone will probably just show up without calling.' so I tell her this isnt a joke, how can anyone setup a shower and not know how many people are attending

So I told her to call my MOH tomorrow and give her a list of who is going and who isnt.


Arghhhhh, I cant believe how stupid they are being. Im so worried for my wedding. That im not buying plates for who isnt sending back the invite and then they just show up.

Has anyone had the same problem, how did you handle it, My FH says Im overrating that everything will be fine. I said this could turn into a disaster.

I TOTALLY sympathize with you!

My family is notorious for not responding to things and just showing up...and to top it all off they ALWAYS show up late! It is really irritating and maddening. You should not have to play phone tag with people to try to get responses. It's rude to do what they are doing and they have to understand that it's important that they respond in a timely manner to things--especially since so much money is involved.

Talk to FH to see if he can talk to his family to iron home this fact. He should be able to do so and drive home the fact that it's important that people respond appropriately. I had to have FH tell his family stuff like this because I was going insane.

FH has told his family that they need to be on top of things, but they still do whatever, We are sending our invites of the 23rd of April and we still dont have everyone's address from his family

This mother isnt helping she just tells him to do it.

I would be pi$$ed. I would have your FH hound them, and tell him, that whoever doesn't RSVP, won't be let in.

believe me girls, im so pissed. FH is calm and Im the stresser. he just tells me it will be fine. Im not so sure of that

thats awful sorryy!!!
