    Me and my bms have now officially started planning my hen do.

    We text and messaged everyone i wanted to invite giving them the date and telling them the plan and asking if they'd be up for it as we needed to know rough numbers so we could book the right sized party coach and VIP room.

    Now the majority have replied and said yeah they would defiantly be up for it but im still waiting for around 10 odd people to reply. I did send them texts aswell as a message of book of face as i know some people dont check their mail.
    But im starting to feel slightly annoyed now as theyre always online and havent responded to my text and i sent these out over 2 weeks ago now.

    I personally find it a tad rude. Should i just assume they dont want to come or casually just text them again? I know some times i get a text and im in the middle of something so i look then completely forget to reply lol!

    If it was just a night out i wouldnt be too fussed but its only because if i go ahead and book the coach and room for the amount of people coming atm and then these people do reply with yes i will have to completely change both.

    Opinions please?

    Send out a reminder text and say you are booking on xxx day and they need to let you know by then.

    I would kindly remind them, but would advise you that if things are costing you to get the money up front as with mine we booked things and people dropped out. So annoying.

    Agree with previous posters - give them a deadline and ask for some cash - you and your BMs dont want to end up out of pocket.

    I would ring them? They might be able to ignore texts and messages but if you leave them a voice mail or actually speak to them you are more likely to get an answer. If you don't get a reply from that I would assume they aren't coming. x

    I would send a reminder but I wouldn't chase too much. If you have to chase just to get an aye or a nay then imagine how much chasing you would need to do to get the money in x

    Yes you should remind them that they have not replied because they may not have recieved your text message. There has been a lot of problems with some networks. I recieved 4 text messages yesterday from saturday. SO yes REMIND THEM. X
