A couple gains popularity after withdrawing their wedding invitation
Planning a wedding could be difficult, especially while you’re undecided what number of guests can be in attendance. One couple decided to take matters into their own hands and deregister individuals who didn’t respond on time.
“We’re sorry you’ll be able to’t come to our wedding. The deadline for our response has passed and unfortunately you have got not responded. We would love so that you can be present, but the ultimate numbers have already been reported and your presence can be missed,” reads the note posted by user ChiChi on X.

There were many comments supporting the couple under the post, which had 11 million views.
“I can not lie. I’m very impressed that they didn’t quit. If you’ll be able to’t take my wedding seriously, you do not need to be there. said one commentator.
User X, nicknamed Trini87, said he wished he had done the identical.
I wish my wife and I might do that. This would have avoided a lot stress because the organizers needed to know the ultimate numbers but people were waiting too long to listen to back. Furthermore, people confirmed their arrival but never showed up. We paid $175 per plate for catering. These spots can have disappeared…

“I wish my wife and I had done it. This would have avoided a lot stress because the organizers needed to know the ultimate numbers but people were waiting too long to listen to back. Furthermore, people confirmed their arrival but never showed up. We paid $175 per plate for catering. These spots can have disappeared others we desired to attend but couldn’t invite on account of our budget,” he said.
Some users felt that the couple could have given their guests a bit of grace.
“Events like this should be attended by your closest family and friends… who you can reach out to and remind them of the invitation to the meeting – if you can write ‘sorry you missed it’ you can use this time to check in with your people,” the user wrote X
“Who gives you the ACTUAL date of ANYTHING due??? I all the time lie for per week or two, whether at work/personally, with a colleague/friend or family. People have lives, include that in dates and times. And if it is so vital, call and ask for details – you have got 2 weeks.” User X, Sophia, wrote.
RSVP is the French expression “répondez s’il vous plaît”, which suggests “reply if you want”. Invitation responses help hosts plan events effectively by knowing how many individuals can be attending. Accurate staffing levels can ensure guests have the appropriate amount of food, drinks and seating. Were the soon-to-be newlyweds too strict or were they waiting for business?
