In a dilemma - need your opinion!!


Recommended Posts

Crazy! I can't believe she had the audacity to ask you to MC and presented you with an invite that clearly makes it known that you wouldn't have been invited in the first place. I totally agree with what Jersey said. Tactfully decline to MC.

Im not sure i could cancel here without letting her know that i have noticed the rsvp was over a week ago.I think id tell her i wasnt comfortable in stepping up and that id laid awake worrying, wish her well with her wedding and say we must get together once the wedding festivities are over for you both,in other words bugger off theres no DW invite coming your way mrs.

lol...I told my sister this story and she said she would have mc'ed and wrote a long, comemmorative speech on how blessed they are to be able to pull off a wedding on such short notice given that they sent her invite a mere 3 weeks before the date. I was cracking up! She's bold to ask you to do that, if she asked someone like my sister, she would be so shamed she'd wish she'd eloped!

yeah I'm in agreement too - don't do it!

 

Weddings should be about those closest to you - but not who's the most convenient.

 

to be perfectly honest, I would probably be in EXACTLY the same situation as you as I would have said yes, and then regretted it after!

 

you don't need her, and she'll have to do without you.

 

be strong, keep it brief but make it nice and heartfelt lol just to cover yourself!

I agree with everyone also. (although I love SSNM's post with the long speech about planning a wedding so quickly - priceless!). The sooner the better also, so she can find someone else (Like a DJ - I too have never seen an MC at a wedding other than the DJ).

 

I hope it goes well! Good Luck!

I could be completely wrong, but I would feel like she was asking me just because she doesn't know who else to ask, and that asking me was a last resort type of thing. I wouldn't want to do it either and would probably call her and just tell her that on such short notice I unfortunately can't take on this responsibility.

I completely agree here! I would feel the same way. When I was reading the story, I was like, wait a minute - I'm your second choice and you didn't even want me as a guest?

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
