FI and I just got back from out of town to find that his cousins wife (a cousin he is particularly close to) left a huge post on facebook explaining why they can't come to the wedding, and we haven't even sent the invites yet. Her excuses were many and paper thin and now FI is super disappointed. Does anyone else find this a bit odd, or has anyone else had this happen?I'm just a little thrown because I kind of thought that was what response cards are for, plus they haven't even gotten an invite yet.
