Is being invited to a wedding champagne and cake reception next week Wednesday too short notice being invited today?
When my mother was invited last Wednesday?

It could be that someone has said they can't come and they have extra space. You could feel insulted about it or you could shrug and figure, "that happens." The question is, do you want to go despite the inconvenience and expense? If you think you would enjoy it, go. If you don't want to go, then don't. You don't have to please anyone else.

@Poppies it's nice to be invited I'm pissed I only had a week's notice shortened to less than 4 days.
I do feel insulted because I know that I'm not wanted there

@Mellowgirl They didn't give your mother much notice, either.

@Poppies she was invited to the wedding the first time round. She was also updated to know it would be happening once things start to open again. I didn't know this until we spoke today. So she knew for two years.

@Mellowgirl it's not surprising if some of the people they originally invited still don't feel it's safe to go, or find these new updated arrangements don't fit their lives for other reasons. It still comes down to, is it worth it to you? What will bother you more, missing this opportunity or going through all the effort to fit it into your life?
