It is now 25 days until the wedding, and the deadline has come and gone for the RSVPs to be returned. Now comes the ever-awkward "are you coming" emails and phone calls. Blech! Thankfully, so far, the friends we've had that conversation with have been incredibly gracious (Spook) and we completely understand circumstances in life. We have even heard from friends who contacted us to say they can't make it (Candie) and they have also been gracious. We're just trying to figure out how much food the caterer needs to make and how much booze to buy. That's all.
We are dreading the call to one of his friends who we are certain have taken great offense to the adults-only request. Byron called his pal a while back and told them about the wedding and they were quite interested in where we were registered. The next day, the couple went out and bought things off the registry. We have not gotten their RSVP back. I am afraid they raced out, bought stuff, got the invite requesting their ass of a child not come, and are now persnickety at us. My passive-agressive tummy flips at the idea of calling them.
That same PA tummy was in knots today as I had to email an old friend to say that we are unable to make their wedding this Saturday. Logistics don't allow for our attendance, and I feel like a douche for bowing out 5 days before the wedding. AND doing so after we said yes on the RSVP. There is just no way we can make it over to Vancouver this weekend. I hope she doesn't hate me. Please don't hate me, Janet!
Reservedly Yours,
