The No-Shows

So how do you feel about the no-shows from your wedding?

These are people you end up paying for but they don’t show you the courtesy of even a phone call to RSVP yes or no.

How upset should one get?

Re: The No-Shows

how do you feel when you invite family of 4 and they show up with 7 people?

Re: The No-Shows

Thats actually frustrating too ^

Re: The No-Shows

It's hurtful. You wanted them to be a part of your big day and they couldn't even be bothered to respond? That's pretty bad.

Re: The No-Shows

Utilize USPS and send a stink bomb. Their behavior stinks and they should know about it. No.

Re: The No-Shows

I agree with TLK - I hate it when people do that. A few guests did that at mine.

No-one in my family knows what RSVP is.

Re: The No-Shows

Having just gotten married weeks ago... i can tell you that it is upsetting to a family as a whole... you are looking forward to their attendance....their RSVP said "yes" .. you even called and confirmed they would be coming. You go through the effort of making place cards, and doing seating arrangements only for them to not show up? And not give the courtesy of a call, text, or email or anything???? It's hurtful at first and then rude upon reflection and time passing. One gets annoyed and frustrated.

The other thing is annoying/frustrating as well... for example..we invited a husband and wife ONLY and they RSVP'ed yes ... but then they brought 11 people with them. Like wth?! And because they came as a "family" ... only one gift ofcourse. It's not the one gift part thats annoying...but annoying that that you go through the hassle to accomodate them and pay extra for them ... and then there is not even a "compensation" for increased stress on that day.
