My mom and MOH are hosting a bridal shower for me, and one of the respondents (a close friend of FI) said - when they called to follow up as she didn't rsvp- was that she was 50/50. She was reminded it was next week apparently as they were talking Mom mentioned that it was a small restaurant, so we need to give(and pay for) an exact number by tomorrow.
Her response was apparently she'll try to make it, but won't know til the day of (which is odd since she lives 3 hours away...)
I'm trying to stay out of this, but both MOH and Mom called me asking what to do! Haha I agree with them that it's pretty rude to 1) not rsvp 2)give a wishy-washy answer when asked.
Both asked me if I'd prefer if they pay for an extra seat ($125) or just assume she won't come. Honestly, as I've never met this woman, I don't know what she'll do.
I know it's rude, but can they just call back and say 'we need a yes or a no?'
