We just found out this week that our friends who were getting married on the same day as us are calling off the wedding. She was actually the one to do it, and he is taking it particularly hard. I feel bad for them both - what a terrible situation to be in. So, the wedding is off, and they are going to seek counseling and try dating again. We'll see how that goes - I've never actually known anybody who 'started over' like this. I hope that they can make it work, but I suppose thats selfish of me. Really, I just want them to be happy. Now comes the hard part of telling all of thier guests that the wedding is off and of course, 'unplanning' everything. They lost an unbelievable amount of money, adding insult to injury.
On my own wedding front things are going well. Were into the 20's now, which is crazy. I can't believe its coming up so quickly! Were having a problem with outstanding RSVP's - thats about the biggest issue. I'm giving people a few extra days and then we are going to start calling. Did any of you have this issue with people not responding? Its kind of making me a bit angry becuase we addressed and stamped each one, all the people had to do was 1.) Write thier own name on the response card, 2.) Think 'am I going, or not?' 3.) Check the appropriate box and 4.) Drop it in the mail! We have family that hasn't even bothered to RSVP! UGH!
In other news, my job is okay so far. I still dont really understand all of the ins and outs of my group, but they are nice, and helpful, and very friendly, which is an enornous step up from what I came from.

I swear Mark and I had our RSVP all ready to send out, and I even thought it was sent... until I found it in a stack of papers from our move! It's in the mail today. Unfortunately, we won't be able to make it! I'm super bummed!! We were looking forward to coming home and seeing everyone again! I hope everything goes great! I'm sure it will though!
OMG, at first I thought YOU were calling off your wedding. Phew! Glad you and Josh are doing well. :)
Here I am, RSVP'ing. I'll be there. And I'm not bringing a date (it's more fun that way!).
I learned that it doesn't matter how easy you make it for them, you STILL have to call. Laura typed out each person's name on ours to make it so 1) I knew who it was coming from and 2) as a gentle hint whether or not you were allowed to bring a guest... I still had to call and I still had the crazy people that thought bringing 8 people to the wedding was acceptable, but whatever. The worst is the family who just assumes you know they're coming urgh!
I know someone who called the wedding off, got back together later and got married the following year so it happens. Sometimes people get overwhelmed with wedding planning or other stresses in life and need a time out of sorts to figure things out.
Reading the title I totally thought it was you guys who were calling off the wedding! Good luck with everything from now until the big day!
You scared me with your title too!
I've never met anyone who got all of their RSVPs back. People just don't understand the stress until they plan a wedding themselves.
What I did was divide up the 'non-responsers.' Anyone from JR's family I gave to the MIL to call, anyone from my mom's fam, she had to call, my dad's fam, he had to call, and I contacted my co-workers, etc. I know that ettiquette probably says you should call yourself but I didn't delegate any of the other chores, so I was fine handing that one out.
Believe it or not, it's only those newly-engaged, just married, and maybe 1 year afterwards, and then the truly anal that send RSVPs regularly. The rest of us are lucky to walk out of the house remembering our badge, keys, diapers for day care, clean underwear, birthday party invitations, and that nagging status report due at work :D
That said, I'd just call. Most people it's an honest mistake. And they don't mind!
I second what Head said.
