Fuming bride wants to send guests £85 invoices for food as some drop out of wedding

A soon-to-be married woman is getting worried as a few guests have dropped out of her wedding at short notice, which costs the happy couple £85 each time for the food and venue. The nerve-stricken bride took to the 'Am I Being Unreasonable' forum on Mumsnet to explain that her wedding is just round the corner and with six days to go, she has had a flurry of dropouts from her guests.

As it is only days away, the happy couple are busy making the last few plans to give them their special day, but have been blindsided by some of their guests who have not given them much warning before cancelling and saying they can no longer make it. n the post, the woman explained: "We didn't want two tier guests so everyone is invited to the whole day and evening.

"Invited a year a go and invites sent out six months ago."

The woman is beginning to lose patience and has even considered sending them an invoice to pay for the damages of what they have caused to the happy couple through cancelling.

She said: "I feel like sending them an invoice.

"You don't drop out 6 days before the whole thing happens."

Many people were quick to show their support for the stressed out soon-to-be bride but erred on the side of caution in sending them an invoice.

One person wrote: "Depends on the reason really, but sometimes these things aren’t avoidable. Ultimately it isn’t their problem that you’ve picked a certain cost, but I’d they don’t have a good reason it is really crap of them."

While another wandered if anybody else could come in their place and said: "So frustrating when people drop out. have they given valid reasons though? However, by costing you, do you mean you've already paid so it's basically a wasted bit of money, which you could have saved on? you're not getting charged this in addition to what you've paid already? Can you invite anyone else in their place?"
