And I was worried

tiamatladya couple of weeks ago I had asked ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
dionysia's advice about a wedding invite. I got one to my oldest friend's wedding, and it had my name on it only. I asked about the etiquette of bringing a guest, especially since I had told the bride I was OK stag, (or doe, if you will) but that I had a couple of people I could bring (CB anyone?). What do I do, Is it rude of me to ask?
I shouldn't have worried.
I just got (what I consider) an out of line email, sent to several of us, NOT Bcc'd, about how they need the cards back next week, since they need a final count. OK, I understand that. I've had the invite for three weeks. I should have sent it back already, but I was waiting for Laura. SO I sent her a reply asking about the date thing. I figured, "well, if she can send me THIS, it won't hurt to ask my question, now, will it?"
(My thought, why the email was out of line, that there were five of us on the list, 5 or 6. Would a quick call have been out of line? "Hi, just need you to send your response. Oh you are, OK, send the card anyway, thanks." She would have had her count, I would have felt loved, and I would have sent the card immediately. Now I have to wait for her response, and then ask my "prospective" date(s) (I think CB will say no, due to work, and the intimacy a wedding will involve. I'm probably taking Bret, because since D isn't going, Bret is free to escort me.(she'd put dibs on Bret, since I have other options. Bitch. *grin*))
