Pushing the Wedding up a day!

Ready to notify my bridal party that my Fiance and I have decided to push the wedding up a day. What are some ways I could community this to the bridal party and the groom's parents?

Re: Pushing the Wedding up a day!

  • Just call them up and tell them.
  • I would suggest calling them all so you can make sure everyone gets the news. Maybe your FI could help and reach out to his side. I have also used my parents and FI's parents to help disseminate information to our respective sides.

    Your wedding is November 22nd, and you haven't told your bridal party and your FI's parents that it's not on the 23rd?!

    WTF?!

    Exactly what I'm wondering. Not to mention your guests, especially out of towners and folks you've sent a STD to.

    If this is truly the case you need to call these people like yesterday. You also need to call anyone you've told verbally, anyone who got a STD and anyone who was sent an invitation. Everyone needs to be called ASAP.

  • You might want to pick up the phone and call them. Like NOW!

  • Ditto PPs; this close, you need to be calling everyone and telling them ASAP. Also, there better be a darn good reason you're doing this.

    Also, I just looked at a calendar -- you're moving your wedding to the Friday before Thanksgiving?! I expect that will substantially increase your decline rate.

    I'm gonna go with 'not my circus, not my monkeys.'
  • Call them right away.  If you already sent out your invites, you need to notify your guests as well.  Make sure you tell everyone, don't let it "travel through the grapevine".

    And uh. Why didn't you tell your fiance's parents yet??? Really? Your wedding is a month and a few days away....

  • Why didn't you tell everyone as soon as you made the date change?

    Call everyone up NOW and tell them.  And I mean everyone, like guests, family, wedding party...basically anyone that you have invited.

    What the hell are you waiting for?
     WOW well I just found out

    His parents are aware the date might change but wasnt sure what the actual date would be!

  • I just don't understand how this was even a question?  How else did you think you were going to communicate this to people?  With a cute note or poem?  When your wedding is like a month and a half away and most likely invites have already gone out, you pick up the phone as soon as you determine the new date.  You don't come on here asking how to communicate the new date to people.

    Common sense.

    We have a wedding on the 23rd and just got the invites, but I would be pissed if things changed in between....for money for all reasons. Expect many to RSVP no.

    Ps, The 28th is turkey day.

  • Why have you waited a week or more to let people know that you changed the wedding date? Especially since you moved it to a Friday -- I'm sure you will have people who now have to take off work and/or change their travel arrangements. Your wedding is in like six weeks. EVERYONE that received a save the date needs to be contacted ASAP. Call your bridal party and family right now. Seriously, close the computer and call them.

    Also, since you bolted from your previous thread, you can't uninvite people after sending them a save the date. Sorry.

    Bull.  You posted on September 26 that you had already rented a hall for November 22 instead of having it on the 23rd as you had originally planned.  And I told you then that you needed to call everyone immediately to let them know about the change.

    Oh this is the tiered reception one too!

    This sounds like a hot mess and some poor planning.

    OP - I will say to you what I said last week.  Inform and formally invite EVERYONE you sent a STD.  Like, immediately.  If you can't properly host them all at BOTH ceremony AND reception - no exceptions - then just elope on the 22nd.  Anything else and you stand to damage a LOT of relationships.
  • What the fuck is going on? You wanted to change your date and cut your guest list, both after you sent out STDs?

    Are you still having a "private" reception?
