UPDATE ON PAGE 3 - What to do when someone is not invited with a guest and responds that they are bringing one!!!

Original post by LM903

Can i just say - the friggin nerve of people!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I invited everyone I work with to my wedding and only those who are married (2 of them)with their husbands. Everyone else is invited solo - since we are on a tight budget and have limited seating. None of those who were invited solo are engaged.

I received the RSVP from a girl last night (WHO I CAN'T STAND MIND YOU and invited her just to be nice) that she is bringing a guest.

She wrote: 'Ms. Stupid Idiot' and Guest
will __2__ attend

Now that she's put me in extremely akward position, i have to approach her. At this point, its not about the money or the people - but what I do for one, now I have to do for all. I can't stand people who just assume things like this.

Anyone have this happen to them?! Any advice????


UPDATE, UPDATE:

So I get home last night and in the mail is another RSVP from another girl in my work who I invited - SOLO. Her RSVP says ...

'Ms. Stupid Idiot 2' and MY MOTHER
will _2_ attend


DO YOU BELIEVE THIS?
Immediately after opening this - i called the first girl - the evil one - on her cell b/c she obviously talked to this other girl and told her its ok to respond with a guest. I left her a firm and some what nasty message saying ...

'I just received your RSVP for my wedding. We're happy you'll be able to attend but there must have been a big misunderstanding - the invitation was ONLY intended for you. I really wish that if you had any question about that - that you would have to come me and asked me, rather than assume otherwise. FH and I are on a very tight budget and I don't think we'll be able to accomodate you with a guest at our wedding.'

I can not believe this nonsense. What in the world are people thinking??? And someone wants to bring her MOTHER?? WHAT THE HECK??????

Girls, word to the wise - If you have any doubts about inviting people from work - my advice is .... DON'T DO IT

be prepared for her to not show up.

I had something similar happen. A guest RSVPd for 1. Then, a week before the wedding, she called and asked if she could bring a guest because she 'JUST started seeing someone'.

It was waaay too late at that point to add on her guest.

She no showed. But, even better, she PRETENDED to be at the wedding. Her mom took her placecard. Her sister signed her name in the guest book and dropped a card for us in the gift box. But, I received confirmation from others that this person did not attend.



Ok, that's just bizzare on all counts... She and her family!! Why would people do that???

they thought they could get away with it because she's a twin. The twin is the one who signed the book and dropped the card in the gift box. The part that upset me the MOST was that for the family portrait, the mother left all of her children out of the picture. I think she did that so the 1 daughter wouldn't get 'caught' after my proofs came back.

I'm sorry, but that is downright hysterical that they thought they'd get away with it. You need to tell them that the whole twin-switching thing only works in Sweet Valley High books. People kill me.
