Yikes! Who said you were rude? You just need to know a count of who is coming vs. who isn't! It's not as if you told them you were diappointed if they couldn't come...and even that isn't all that bad. Try to let it roll off your back.
It's hard to interpret tone through email but I don't think your note was rude at all - just a reminder that they have to get back to you!
The email went to just the bridal party. And it was some of the groomsmen that thought I was being rude for basically telling them to get their crap together and RSVP.
When is the RD? This Saturday? Um...it's Wednesday! Either you're going or you're not...you just need to know!
EDIT: Good lord...it's Thursday...not Wednesday! Sorry :o)
UGH. Just ignore it and remind yourself that they are the rude ones for not RSVPing.
Whoa....Thats crazy!! I guess some people just take things the wrong way (although, Im not sure how you would misinterpret that)
Most people wont know what you are going through while planning a wedding and when they finally do, they will get that "Ahhhh hah" moment!
No, the final numbers need to go to the resturant on Saturday. The RD isn't until January.
Boys will be boys after all. Let this role off your shoulders. You needed the info, kindly requested it and your email was fine!
Crazy! I would let it roll off your back though, no use being upset over it.
Understood - I still think you're fine. You're just reminding them that you need to have the numbers in by Saturday. And I agree with Jackie...boys!
guys are always like that. Oh well. I usually just tell my FI at the time to deal with any communication to the groomsmen and I always say that if I don't hear by a certain date, they will have NO FOOD and NO BOOZE. That usually works.
Stop letting guys get away with being big babies. Maybe you should respond
Oh I'm sorry. That was very rude of me. I forgot that I needed to come over and hold your hand while you trace out letters on the RSVP card, then walk you to the mail box. Soooo sorry I didn't do that.
Now that would be rude! hahahaha
Oh my gosh, if that's rude then I'm a major jerk! I just told my BM's they NEED to order their dresses like yesterday. They took it fine, but only 3 outta 6 made moves. jeesh
Yeah, emails are tough. And you are dealing with so many logistical issues as a DW bride, I'm sure you were a little (rightfully) annoyed and it came across.
I feel really bad b/c I never even RSVP'd to my sisters Wedding or Rehearsal Dinner! I called my Mom the week of and apologized up and down, but they had already counted me in since I was the MOH.
Funny thing, I get told off by my FI for calling his groomsmen to remind them that they need to be fitted for their tuxes by a certain date (it was the following friday and they'd had two months!!) and then apparently he can harangue me all week long, multiple times a day, about sending out the Wedding weekend schedule, which I did say I would do Monday and didn't actually get to until this morning. Really? MEN!
You were definitely not rude! You were beingo a concientious hostess who wanted to make sure she had enough food for everyone!
Not rude at all! This is something I'm really afraid of - people not doing what they need to do and me having to harass them to make it happen. Hope your bridal party gets their butts into gear and starts responding to stuff on time!

So I sent an email to our bridal party saying "hey, you guys haven't RSVP'd to the rehearsal dinner (we're having a DW) and I need to submit numbers to the resturant on Saturday. Please tell me if you're in town from your flight and you'll be joining us".
I got told I was rude. For craps sake! You are the bridal party and you're not RSVP'ing to FREE FOOD!
