The reception is being held in a huge hall, and you've been assigned to a table in the corner or to one on the mezzanine level -- as far away as you could possibly be from the bride and groom.

Waitstaff is supposed to serve the head table first and then the family table, and then the back of the room goes last. There is always one poor table in the back with like 12 settings squished together. Then the DJ speakers are right next to this table, practically blasting all the salad lettuce off the plates. People at this table tend to be miserable or get really drunk. This is always the B-list table. If the chef does not cook enough food by mistake, or someone drops a tray, or some assholes brings extra guests, this table will get no food. If you ordered chicken, we will run out of it, and you have to eat beef or a plate of potatoes and carrots.

You've been invited as "and guest", to your boyfriend's friend's wedding even though you've known the bride and groom for many years now, are all on a first name basis and see each other very frequently over the years, but yet you're not important enough to have your fuckin name on the invite!!

Pissed I spent $500 on her dumb wedding wrote:
When all the people you know and are your age are at the opposite side of the huge room of tables and you're stuck at a table with the bride's cousins that you know she hates and you've never met... and the former roommate you know she hates and felt obligated to invite.

Disappointed yet taking to forget about wrote:
Have a bipolar spouse who initially invites you to his sister's wedding in Europe, next takes it back. Then calls a week before the wedding, on Christmas day and says 'wish you were'. So you look into flights find one cheaper than the one he went on and his reply is 'a bit expensive for just a week's visit. Maybe some other holiday.' Ironically, we never did get the silver ink addressed invitation so I don't think I was ever meant to be invited. Sad.

I also think the hardest part of planning a wedding is picking who I want to come to the wedding. Instead of voting people off the island, families have to vote friends out of the reception. It's a hard process, especially for couples having smaller weddings.

Signs You're A B-List Wedding Guest
I think the hardest part of planning a wedding is picking who you want to come to the wedding. Instead of voting people off the island, families have to "vote friends out of the reception." It's a hard process, especially for couples having smaller weddings.But sometimes couples have the reverse problem. After they've boiled down the guest list to their favorite relatives and friends the RSVPs start coming in. They start to realize that their most treasured friends and family members don't want to come to their wedding.
Empty chairs means lost revenue for the bride and groom. Plus there is nothing more humiliating to a young couple getting married than empty tables at your reception.
It's at that point Brides and Grooms have to whip out "The B List" and sometimes things get so bad . . . they have to whip out "The D List."
Here are some signs you were a B List wedding guest.
--------------------------------
You are at at able of people who've never met either the bride or groom.
Your table was called last for the buffet.
Before calling your table for the buffet all of the other tables are offered seconds.
Neither the bride nor the groom remembers your name.
When told your name the bride and groom accuse you of crashing the wedding.
The invitation came three days before the wedding.
You didn't get an invitation you got an e-vite.
Your place card is written in sharpie.
You're sitting at a table with the father of the bride's mailman, landscaper and plumber.
It's been more than eight years since you've seen the bride or groom.
You've made love to either the bride or the groom.
Your invitation was addressed not to "You and Guest" but to "You and whoever else you feel like bringing."
You are sitting with the couple the bride and groom met in Pre-Cana.
Three of the people at your table may not have showered in the last four weeks.
It's a black tie event and you are sitting with the trashy cousin wearing denim and a polo.
Each person at your table isn't talking to someone in the bride or groom's immediate family.
You are sitting a table of migrant day laborers who were hired as seat fillers.
