We are having an adults only wedding. Because I knew that writing Adult Only Reception on your reception cards is rude, I came to you all asking for ideas. My friends/family just wouldn't have understood to not write in their kids if I addressed the envelopes only with the names of the adults on them. I received a great idea to have (blank) seats are reserved in your honor. This worked wonderfully and we had no write in's! Today, I received this lovely note attached to a declined RSVP.
Dear Sharpie, Thank you for reserving 2 seats for us at the reception, but we are a family of 5. We hope everything goes smoothly and know that it will be a beautiful wedding.With Best Wishes, xxxxx
Nice, right? She also talked about my FMIL behind her back to the other relatives and tried to create more drama. As a result, two other guests are not coming.
