Save the date.. Have I been uninvited?

Back story - My wedding is in April and I sent out my invitations around this time last year, with the Rsvp date at the beginning of July. I wanted to give people plenty of time after having to postpone twice and I was forever getting asked when the new date was, so sent the invitations out early. Everyone rsvp'd by the date requested which was great and now everyone has had a year to finalise plans.

I invited 2 school friends to the evening reception and they rsvp'd that they would be attending.

I'm August I got a save the date card from one of those friends for their wedding in June this year.

It's now February (their wedding is in June) and we haven't had the formal invitation yet. I thought it's getting a bit close because their wedding is miles and miles away so we will need to book accommodation etc in a busy tourist area in the height of summer before everything sells out. I put it to the back of my mind until another friend came to dinner this week. (She is a bit unorganised with life admin) but is sure that she Rsvp'd for our friends wedding invitation a few weeks ago.. Which means she has received the invitation. I haven't.. What do you think I should do? I feel uncomfortable messaging my friend in case he thinks I'm being pushy if he hasn't sent the invitations yet.. Or that I was on the save the date list but now not on the real invitation list.

Any advice would be really helpful Smile

Definitely message and ask - you could frame it that you're making plans for the summer and booking annual leave etc and ask them for local hotel recommendations- that way you're not suggesting they should have sent invitations out already and if they have reduced their invite list they'll have to explain.
If you don't ever ask it will be hanging over you and could be something simple like it was lost in the post and they're wondering why you haven't rsvp'd yet.
