[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One of my old friends is getting married in a few weeks.  [b]We never got a save the date card,[/b] but the invitation arrived just a few weeks ago.  Unfortunately, it's on a Friday night when I'm returning to DC from a business trip, and the wedding is in Miami.  I am unable to change the trip AND I had mentioned it to her last time I'd seen her because it's a big deal and I'm pretty stressed about it.  I send the RSVP card back declining, then sent her an email jokingly asking her why she had to get married on a day I can't attend.  She replied back "It was on purpose. Well, I guess this is awkward."

:shock:

I didn't even reply because I really don't even understand what's going on here.  I feel so snubbed.  Who schedules a wedding for a day when you know a friend can't attend?  I totally understand not being able to schedule it so [i]everyone [/i]can attend, but that's not what happened here. Do I write her off as a friend?

But you said that they didn't decide to get married until after the Supreme Court decision in June.  Normally, you wouldn't send a save-the-date so shortly before the actual invitation, which is sent 4-6 weeks before the event itself.  I feel like you're looking for offense.  Unless your friend is a master planner, there is no way she found out about your work trip, went home, booked a venue and ordered invitations in time to send them out the next week.  [/quote]
