I definitely feel it's pretty shitty to RSVP for a wedding and flake on going,
Every wedding has a few people not show due to illness, kids, or family emergency. Wedding planners tell you that shite too, but I bet these poor fricks serving lake fish at their wedding didn't hire one.

I said this on page 1. Sit down meal weddings are the fricking worst. That's Yankee shite. You have walk around apps, a buffet, a bar and good music. The sit down bullshite is what rehearsal dinners are for.

If I RSVP'd to a wedding and couldn't make it, I'd probably offer to pay for my spot.

I'm not married yet, but zero percent chance I even notice if an extended family member doesn't show up.

If you RSVP and don't go then who's really at fault. Take responsibility for your actions.

its etiquette in the South and where ever, to have a sit down dinner in weddings after 5.
What I dont get about the story is that the bride billed her for a meal that they would have to pay for if they came as well. so nothing is lost. Did the bride bill all the attending guest as well? Did the non-attending guest purchase a gift?

Wut? It scares me that people like you exist in the world. Posted on 10/1/15 at 9:30 am to Street Hawk
My wife and I just had this conversation. We just got married in August. I think we had 8 or 9 people RSVP and not show. Catering for our wedding was $75 per head. So that cost us an additional $600 - $675. Not a ton of money, but who wants to waste that much? That shite adds up fast. If you RSVP and don't show, show some class and offer to pay for what you wasted.

No, that is just how weddings work. Now, if someone RSVPs and doesn't apologize/provide an excuse, then sure, hold a grudge.
But offering to pay would be bizarre and if someone did it to me I'd laugh at them and tell them they're being absurd.

Not here and especially not in New Orleans. It's silly and pretentious to do that at a wedding. I've been to sit down receptions where they served 5-7 courses over the course of 2 hours leaving very little time to actually have a good time.

Shouldn't have RSVP'd. Pretty sure they had at least a month or two to find child care.

You're not that important in the world. Literally every wedding planner will tell you to account for no-shows. If you're worried about shite like this then you should be having a small intimate wedding with people you know won't bail.

It really doesn't matter. That's not how weddings work.

maybe a very informal wedding, but its proper and quite common. The more formal etiquette is black tie as well for all sit downs, but that rarely happens now

And Ive been to sit down dinners where the location staff had to shut down the power because the partying went too late
