"Just received an invitation to an overseas wedding that is happening in less than a month's time ie mid-August, at an extreme popular European holiday resort, there is not a scrap of information about what provisions are being made for guests to attend, just the ceremony starts at/there will be a buffet afterwards. The invite is from distant family. "Anyway I went to reply through their fancy website and it says "RSVP's for this event are now closed" I guess that's really telling me. "Why do people do this - they obviously just want to say they invited us? Perhaps I should bust a gut scrabbling around to find a last minute flight/hotel and turn up just to upset their numbers!"Many replied saying that it's a very rude turn of events, and she should get in touch with the couple. One said:
"How rude, they’ve obviously had a lot of people decline and are scrabbling around for a C list. "I’d message them ( on their wedding website if it exists) saying thanks so much for the invitation but due to the short notice you are unable to attend and were unable to use the RSVP provided."While another wrote:
"I’d also be tempted to contact them just for fun but I think totally ignoring it would be ok too. It sounds like a your-not-really-invited- Invite. "Would you send a gift? Might it be a gift fishing invite? Or is that too suspicious."Would you be annoyed by this situation?
