Rude Guest: RANT

DRemA3

I received a phone call today from one of my guests.  She left me a VM asking if I had mailed her thank you note, because she hasn't received it yet. She wanted to let me know "its very important to thank you guests for coming in a timely manner" and that she "was disappointed in me."  UGH... I got married July 11, my AHR was July 17, this guest was at our AHR, so it has only been 9 days... also we are moving to Philadelphia this Thursday, and she knows that... I'm just irritated, she is so rude. BTW, the TY cards are all written, I just have to go pick up postage tomorrow, but seriously, 1 week??? Ridiculous. Also would any of you ever call about a TY note? Especially after only a week?

Where the eff is MY thank you note?

DRemA3

Fischey, I will get it in the mail tomorrow #$^%$&$$#!!, get off my back!

Tell her you know someone who got married June 13th, and hasn't written one thank you card yet... even for her shower. I am the rude one!! Whooooops!

That's so weird! I'd never call for a thank you note. I might call to be sure a gift was received after a month or two, if I was unsure, but that's it.

crfische

Yeah, I've never heard of anyone calling to ask where their thank you is period, let alone 9 days after the wedding.What is the age of said guest?

Glad she wasn't one of my guests. We are mailing out the rest of them tomorrow (my wedding was May 24. I know, I know.). She would have written me off altogether! You should call her in Tuesday afternoon to make sure she got it

I would probably leave an equally tacky message on her answering machine.

June 13th? What's the delay?

We got married June 29th and still havent sent ours out either. No phone calls yet. We are waiting for our pro pix so we can send a pic with the card.

Tell her that it because you are moving and life is hectic you hadn't had time to prepare her thank you note.  I would also give the present back to give her a big fuuck you if I hadn't opened it yet, but that's me.

Quick Threadjack, but mcmahaee I have to say that your bridesmaids dresses are so adorable! Whose the designer?

kissybee

that's just absurd.  Do people have nothing better to do than sit around and wait for a thank you?

sucrets4

It's shiitty to ask and even shiittier to scold you!  wtf is up with that?!??

C W

Ugh. That's ridiculous!

If you don't mind me asking, what is the relation of the guest to you? I think they should cut you some slack. It hasn't even been a month.

Good grief, 9 days?? Does she think you have absolutely nothing else to do but get cracking on them thank you's immediately after the reception? And how is she any less rude for calling than you apparently are to her for not sending a thank you out yet? She sucks.

Beadlz

Wow, I've been to quite a few weddings where I haven't even gotten a TY note at all! Nine days is a bit ridiculous, I would be grateful to get one from a wedding I went to over a year ago.

DRemA3

The relation is- My Sorority Advisor (which therefore technically makes her a sister)She is about 65

ShawnandKris

Come to think of it....we didn't receive one from a wedding we attended last August...I better make that call now!  

NF129

Only blood makes her a sister. She needs to chill.

DRemA3

FutureMrsDudley- Thank you, they are Forever Yours 79106 in Cotton Candy and Black

lolzThat's pretty pathetic, I agree.One of my mom's cousins called when she got the thank you note to tell me that she thought the thank you card with the bride & groom's wedding picture on it was tacky.gee, thanks for letting me know

tidetravel

I agree with the post about sending the present back.

matjm6

That is really rude!  My FMIL is like that about thank you notes, although I don't think she would actually call someone.  I have heard her make many comments like "No thank you note? See if I ever send them or family members a gift for anything again."

Hey welcome to Philly!  Which med school are you going to?

Calypso1977

the only time i called abotu a TY was when i had shipped a gift, and SIX MONTHS had passed without acknowledgemetn.  But i phrased it such, "i was calling to make sure you received our gift, since i shipped it direct to you".  i then got a lame excuse abotu hwo tehy hadnt had a chance to do TYs, but they did get it, and it would be coming, yada yada.  Well, 5+ years later, i still havent gotten a thank you.

Perhaps she need to re-learn what proper etiquette actually is....
