So im new to wedding planning. Only one I've ever helped with was my older sister. So the question is, is it rude to send someone a Save the Date then NOT invite them to your wedding? This just happened to me and I feel a little put off. I'm really happy for the couple and plan on sending them a gift. The couple, friends of both me and my fiance, sent us Save the Dates in March. They asked for our address and I immediately gave it to them. But their wedding is next week and no invite. Im not trying to be petty, I just want to know if that's normal? If so I DID NOT buy enough save the dates. I was under the impression those were only sent to those who were invited to the wedding.
