    Font - Posted by u/throwra_notinvite 7 hours ago AITA for not inviting them to my Christmas party after they didn't invite me to their wedding? I throw a pretty big Christmas party every year going on a decade now. A few years ago at one I threw my friend Tara met my former co-worker Tony and they hit it off. They dated for a while, and two years later, once again at my Christmas party, she showed up with a ring on her finger and they announced for the first time that they were engaged. I was su

    Font - was a smaller wedding and they feel like I'm just punishing them. It wasn't though. There were probably 200 people there and I knew at least 50 of them, and I was a little surprised at some of the names that made the cut over us. I didn't make a stink about it or anything, but I don't see why I should welcome them into my home again after being snubbed like that. My partner thinks I should just let it go and invite them back, but I don't see a reason why I should. AITA?

And if they want one: it is a smaller party this year Ⓒ Edit: Thanks for all the Upvotes and my first award ever! You guys are great!

If the event was so special to them than they would associate it with you as well as a special friend and would have invited you Reply Share 788

    Font - Piffli 2 hr. ago It also feels so tacky to steal OP's christmas party to announce their engagement like that. If they asked OP beforehand then it would be different, but just showing up with the rings on... Reply Share 296 HCO2000 57 min. ago Right? They got a snazzy engagement party that had bartenders and was catered, for free. It's gross that they're more upset that they're missing the party, and not that they hurt OP, even if wasn't their intention. Vote Reply Share

    Font - Idontlikesoup1 - 2 hr. ago NTA. Of course there is a bit of "getting back at you" but that's not an AH move at all. Did they ever give you an explanation for not being invited to their weddings? If not, do not bother trying to justify not inviting them to your party. Apparently, they don't expect one. Their entitlement is quite amazing: yes, there IS an expectation of quiproquo when it comes to inviting people to parties... 87 Reply Share smilineyz 19 min. ago Do not enter into a conversa

    Font - CJ_CLT. 57 min. ago edited 54 min. ago ΝΤΑ I don't think these "friends" care about you in the least - they just don't want to miss out on THE social event in your circle. I'm going to bet that nobody else bothers to even hold a Christmas party. OP - If a anyone gives you any flack about this couple not being invited, I would suggest that you explain to them that you host this party because you enjoy spending time with your friends. But that it has occurred to you that some people might b

    Font - By their reaction, you might be able to trim your invitation list further in the future to make room for new friends. Think about it this way - If you were making up an invitation list for a first-time party, would all these people make the cut? Because that is essentially what the bride and groom did- and you didn't make their cut. FYI, I don't think what you did was petty either.
