Save the date-what to do

107 replies

Leesa394 · 06/08/2023 21:27

Hello everyone. I'm getting married soon and I had sent out save the date cards. I sent them to my colleagues too. A couple of my colleagues are my friends but some I dont talk to outside of work.
Anyway I sent them save the dates too which I regret as they have made life hard for myself and many others since I sent the cards.
I regret sending the cards out and do not wish for them to be apart of my day at all.
What to do please?

How did you tell people ?

Also, when is the wedding, as it is now well over a month from when you asked us the question.

We had a course to attend so I mentioned it then

It's in July

Sorry to hear that OP.
Are you In a position to move jobs? Sounds an awful place to work

@Leesa394 I'd look for another job.
I was assuming the wedding was in the next few months, ie you were about ready to send out actual invites.

I think the way to have worded it is "you got a bit over excited, wanted lots of people to attend, but finances mean you need to cut numbers" and say no more.

"mentioned it" ?

So didn't take on board any of the advice you asked for about apologising profusely / saying you felt really bad / maybe taking in some cakes to apologise and so forth ?

My work life has got worse. The past two weeks have been hell and I've not been in a good place so no I didn't take in cakes.
Some people were understanding whilst others weren't at all
