how do i uninvite someone from my wedding?

Hello!

Woweeeee. As a wedding stationer, I guess the first question to ask is, "Have the invitations been sent out yet?"

If they haven't been sent out and the guest has only had verbal confirmation that they're invited, it might be worth sitting down with them (or calling / sending a text if they're not close to you) to advise the reason why. Is it financial difficulties, head count problems, or a personal issue?

Without knowing too much detail about the scenario, the short answer is that you can't really uninvite someone after they've been formally invited unless you both had a falling out.

My recommendation would be to search some wedding forums such as WeddingBee, as quite a few brides may have gone through this before. They would be well equipped to give advice, based on their past experiences. Speaking to mutual friends and family members can also help with this. 

Sorry I can't be of much help here. It's a tricky situation and there are so many factors involved that can affect the outcome.

Hi there,

what a sticky situation to be stuck in. Without knowing the details and circumstances, let's think of the different scenarios...

If you haven't sent out formal invitations, and you've only sent out save the date, or mentioned by word of mouth, you could probably get away with doing nothing, depending on the relationship with that guest. (As in, don't formally invite them). Then if asked, you can say that something unexpected came up and you unfortunately had to cut back on guest numbers.

If you have already sent out the invitations and the guest has responded with yes, then you can't really uninvite them unless there has been a serious rift, or else, you risk a serious rift.

It may be best to speak with a mutual and trusted friend or family member to see how to go about proceeding with this particular situation. Obviously they know you and will be able to advise you on the best way to move forward with this.

Good Luck
