The most frustrating thing about organising the wedding so
far is getting people to actually commit to coming.....
no let me rephrase...
its getting people to TELL US what their plans are.
(perhaps in their heads they are already committed to coming)
I told Captain Tim the other day,
next time we get invited to a wedding we are RSVPing the very next day.
Since getting engaged people seem to think that i have developed psychic abilities...
I have not.
If you have decided in your head that you are coming (or not coming)
to the wedding this does not count as RSVPing
It's very hard to plan a wedding when you dont know how many people are coming,
it affects the budget and the buying of things in a big way....
over-buy and its a waste of money,
under buy and people are going to be without seats and food.
Not only that we can only have a certain amount of people in the room....
Captain Tim wants to over invite because 20% of guests will surely not show up....
i on the other had do not look forward to telling people who turn up sans RSVP.
'sorry...no RSVP makes you a fire hazard....'
So i have a whole bunch of people i havent invited yet,
waiting for the first 'group of invitees' to get back to me....
perhaps they never will.
