We really don't want them to come anymore but I don't think it's right either to dis-invite them. I was just going to "forget" to send them the email tentative RSVP and formal invitation and see what happens....is this the wrong approach? Any suggestions? I need my bride support! We did just that! While not formally dis-inviting one particular couple, we did not follow through with any other wedding communication after the initial STD. We did not directly tell them that we no longer wanted them there, we just didn't provide any further information. Everyone else is booked. We are a little more than 3 months out and have not heard from them. I guess they got the hint. I am sure the friendship is severed but honestly, we no longer wanted the drama or the stress over how it affected our other friends as well as us. So to answer your question, no I do not think your approach is wrong.

hope I'm not there anytime soon: the gynecologist's office

can only handle a few: hours with my friend's daughter
