I invited all of my guests with dates to give them the option. 2 friends from college planned months ago to get a hotel room together, we'll call them Jane and Sally. Jane booked the room decided last minute (a week after the RSVP date) to bring a date.
Today, Sally was texting me about the wedding and asked if Jane was bringing a date. I told her that she was and she said 2 weeks before the RSVP date, Jane told her she was going alone. Sally then freaked out because she hasn't been able to get in touch with Jane and now she thinks she needs her own hotel room. Then, she asked if she could bring a date. I lied and told her that we already gave our count because our wedding is expensive, and next week, and no, I don't want to pay for some random guy who you ask to come at the last minute.
I texted Jane asking if Sally was still staying in the room with her and she told me she would call me later. I think it's terrible that they made plans at least 6 months ago to share a hotel room and 10 days before, Jane is changing her mind.
Next problem (which I'm not concerning myself with) is my hotel is booked. I looked on their website and it says there are no rooms available for the wedding night. They should have figured it out weeks ago. I almost would rather tell Sally, who doesn't really have money to spend on a hotel, to skip the wedding, than deal with the stress.
How could you change your mind on a hotel room and not tell the person if affects?
