Getting stressed and worried about some details...

Ok..i need some advice.

First  my ceremony musician. Ok, he's been bit flakey lately and it's worrying me. After meeting him and receiving the contract over the email, I mailed it to him along with the deposit. He emailed back and said thanks and that once he receives it, he will mail me back a copy of it with his signiture.  He cashed the check Dec 8th. I have yet to see a contract. I emailed him on Monday..and nothing. What do I do? I can obviously sue him if he flakes out...but I really don't have a no-show for the wedding.

2nd: I sent out the invitations about a week and a half ago. Some people received them and some didn't. People in the same city...some got them, some didn't.  Do I wait another week before resending them out?

I know, I might sound like I am getting stressed for nothing, but I  just need a little direction right now.

Thanks

    1 - Since he already cashed the check (so he obviously received what you sent), and you emailed him but he has not yet responded, I think it is very reasonable for you to call (call now, not just email) him maybe tomorrow.  That will have given him a full work week to respond to your email and it will have been exactly a month since he cashed your check.  It's possible that things just got hectic for him over the holidays and he is just now catching up, or perhaps he mailed you a copy of the contract and it just got lost in the mail, or he's out of town or something - so no need to panic yet!  If you aren't able to get a hold of him tomorrow, then I think it's fair to start calling him every day next week until you can get ahold of him.   And if you're stilllll not having any luck, well, then, you might want to come up with a plan B, but hopefully it won't come to that.

    2 - I'm a little less sure about this one, but since you are still 2 months and 1 week out, I'd say go ahead and wait until next week to see if the other people receive them before going to the trouble of getting more invites.

    Don't get too stressed (I know, TOTALLY easier said than done), stay sane, and hopefully these details will easily be resolved!  Good luck!!!

    Thanks so much. I definitely needed this response. Discussing this with FI is no fun since nothing really seems to bother him. I actually wished I had that personality trait sometimes.

    Anyhoo, thanks again.

    i would call your musician tomorrow. it's been almost a month since he cashed the check, which i think is more than ample time for him to send you the contract.

    i would wait another week to see if your invites arrive. for some reason some post offices are slower than others.

    GL!
