This leaves hosts stuck on whether to embrace the holiday early or settle for a generic theme, and unsure of when to send out invitations and lock down a headcount.

Dealing with this betrayal after giving plenty of advance notice ruins the excitement of the wedding and makes couples want to cut ties with those guests for good.
