What would you do?

DH and I got an invitation in the mail. From the wording on the invitation, it's for a party for a couple (Steph and Wes) who are getting married. The party is next month at a very nice restaurant here in our city.

Problem is, neither of us can figure out who this couple is!! We don't have a clue!

The invitation lists the names of three hostesses. I'm slightly aquainted with one of them (emphasis on slightly) and DH says he knows another one as a very casual business aquaintance.

The invitation doesn't have a phone number to RSVP....it has a reply card. And the name on the reply envelope is someone we've never heard of either!

I'm at a loss as to what to do....just blow it off, or send a regret, or try to find out who Steph and Wes are?

What would you do?

I'd contact someone to find out who they are, and then send regrets.

I was invited to a bridal shower and a wedding in ohio last year. It was supposed to go to another person with my name, but my name was the only one in the phone book. She lived on my street too.

I would try to figure out who they are. Curiousity gets the best of me. hehe

If you like the restuarant why not go???

It could be a hoot.

I'd try to find out who they were, then decide if you want to go from there... good luck with a decision

I'd find out who they were you just never know. Then if I did not know them I'd probably send a regret.

Awful to say - but I'd just blow it off. If the names don't ring a bell - then who ever they are, they cannot be very good friends!

Maybe it's a police sting. You know, one of those things like "You've just won a Big Screen TV" or something. Than the police grab you.

Have you been a bad girl Bet???

Hmmm....I think I should plead the 5th on this question!

I do have a burning curiosity to figure this out. I think I may have to investigate further!

Oh, here is another scenario.

Maybe they don't really have any friends and just decided to invite people they thought might make good friends!

That might be it you know. My 2 dd's & I received an shower invitation from a neighbour down the street. The girl getting married had "slightly" known the 2 girls, I didn't know her at all, but I did know the mother enough to say hi as we passed on the street. I figured they were trying hard to fill the shower up. We all had to decline though as we were going out of town.

I got a shower invitation like that once, until I realized they meant my NIECE...how's that for dumb? Her given name is Therese, but it has never been used by anyone in the family. We all call her Tracey.

My DH and I were married down here in Maryland, and we invited friends and family from up in NY. We sent out a nice newsletter after sending out the wedding invitations and at the top stated "By now, you've received the wedding invitation and you probably have some questions" then we listed

1. Where is ------, Maryland and how do I get there?
2. Where can I find a hotel room in -------, Maryland?
3. What is there to do?
4. Who the heck are Edward and Suzanne?

and the next paragraph began "Well, if you don't know #4, this newletter probably won't help you, but we CAN answer 1, 2 and 3". Sounds like the happy couple needs to send out a similar newsletter

Suzanne

PS I wouldn't go. I'd feel out of place if I barely knew the people!
