Wedding guests often engage in behaviors deemed rude. Failing to RSVP properly is one, as it disregards the couple's planning. Bringing children to child-free weddings is another disrespectful action, as it ignores specified arrangements. Guests may also overindulge in alcohol at receptions, undermining the purpose of celebration. Additionally, gifting items outside the established registry can overwhelm couples, who may prefer specific gifts. These actions can convey a lack of consideration for the couple's wishes and the overall event's decorum.
Have the courtesy to RSVP. If people send paper invitations, they come with a SELF-ADDRESSED STAMPED RSVP. There is literally no excuse for you not to send it back. Also: 1) Don't say yes and then not show up (outside of the rare occasion when something outside of your control happens to prevent you from attending). AND 2) Don't say no or not respond at all and then show up expecting to have a seat and eat for free.
Bringing your kid to a child-free wedding, thinking that somehow your circumstances or your child's excellent behavior will make you an exception to that rule. This isn't your day; it's the couple's. Your little angel may be your universe, but the actual universe will not stop if your child doesn't go to a wedding they aren't wanted at to begin with. It's hugely disrespectful to the couple to disregard their wishes...
Getting plastered at the reception. Just because it's an open bar doesn't mean you have to drink your weight in vodka. Have some cocktails and enjoy yourself, but have some self-control.
Getting a gift that isn't on the registry. There are some exceptions, but unless you know the couple INCREDIBLY well, it's best to stick with what they requested.
