Sending Invites Help

You should still send them invitations, plans change.

No, I would still send the invitations to these people. Plans change all the time, and you're still 7 months out. Put yourself in the guests' position for a moment: you receive a STD for a friend's wedding. You realize that is the same weekend of the long-planned family reunion, so you mention that you won't be able to go. As a result, the bride and groom decide not to send you an invitation. Then, a month before, the location for the family reunion burns down in a fire, and the whole event has to be rescheduled/replanned, for a different date. Suddenly you are able to attend your dear friend's wedding, but where's the invitation? Shouldn't I have received it already, since the wedding is only a month away? Nope, you're not getting one, because 7 months ago you said you couldn't make it.

See what I mean? Send the invitations to everyone on your list, regardless of what they have told you at this moment.

View Quoted Comment I definitely agree with this.

We still sent invites even if we knew 100% someone couldn't make it (ex, had an aunt who just had surgery and lives alone. She wouldn't be able to make the flight or drive to the wedding.) But in their invites I included a note that we still wanted to send them an invite so they could see them and if by some miracle could attend, would have the info.

I wouldn’t send it. If they already said no, then save a little money, time, and energy.

I say its a waist of your time to mail them one send it to the nxt person if they change their mind they can contact you but other than that no need to because they already informed you that they weren't coming..

I didn’t send invitations to 3 people because they advised that they would be doing birthday stuff instead of attending my Wedding. I didn’t want to waste the postage when I already knew the answer.

***Before people get on their soap boxes:
1. I was displaced from my job 2 months and 9 days prior to my Wedding.
2. I have a Mortgage on an empty house in need of repair.
3. Birthdays will be had again.
4. A Wedding is a ONCE in a lifetime event (well, for MOST people).
