[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If it was a mass email, I could maybe see how your cousin didn't think it was necessarily a set formal invitation, but saw it as an email exchange that was open for discussion.  How formal was your wording- did it have a set time, place and everything and rsvp request?  Or was it phrased as an email asking if that sounded like a good idea / does that work for everyone, type thing?  [/quote

This. I wouldn't necessarily know an email equals a formal invitation. If you sent an evite or Facebook invite, then yeah her response is rude. But if you sent a mass email, it's not clear.

Besides, I think she has a point. After a big meal the day before, I don't want another meal. Especially at a restaurant with a big party. That's rough with little kids. [/quote]

Who said anything about a restaurant? It's a group (not "mass") e-mail clearly inviting family to my home for brunch. Read the original post. THE WHOLE POINT is to accommodate both older adults and little kids. It was an e-mail invite to my home with a set time, date and place. I did say that we could do another day or time if that's what worked better for people's schedules, but the "base" of the invite was brunch at my house so family could see each other, since some would not see each other on Thanksgiving Day.

Plus really? You eat a big meal one day so you don't want to eat another meal the next day? That makes no sense. We're not talking 20 courses here. It's brunch.[/quote]
