My sister got married in November, which ate alot of my wedding budget, seeing as how I'm getting married on 7/25. My fiance and I made our initial guest list and cut it in half, keeping only the very important people. My rsvp due date is 7/10 and there are a bunch of folks who havent yet responded. So, I sent a text to my friends reminding them to get it in the mail and I get responses from two friends. The first said that she'll be out of the country and can't come. She's known about the wedding for a while now and her trip makes me feel so insignificant especially because I know she booked it last minute. My other friend make a big deal about having a plus one (she didnt initially because of the budget) and eventually got it from a few of the declines we received. Because I texted her, she finally found the time to tell me her BF has to work that day and she can't come afterall. She did not atted ANYTHING we did for the wedding -- I had 2 engagement parties and 2 showers and a bachelorette in 3 weeks -- and she couldnt commit to ONE thing! I've said it when I was sick and there was no one to take care of me, but seriously -- it's times like these that make you realize who your real friends are. I'm SO disappointed...a wedding happens once in a lifetime and these people cant get their stuff together enough to come.
