The disasters, pre-empted
Every card below exists because it happened to someone — sourced from the horror-story corpus, then pointed backwards in time. All of it is computed from rows the platform already has.
Diaspora weddings run 5–10% confirmed no-shows and 3–7% unconfirmed walk-ins — "family everyone knew would come." Your studio's history: −7% attrition, +19 likely walk-ins from 6 flagged households. Planning number: 224 covers, not 212.
Last 3 messages unopened · info request blank for 9 days · was same-day for 4 months. Silence precedes every no-show story on the internet. Plan B on the roster: Bhangra Beats (backup tier, 2 weddings, ★4.7).
Haldi and Sangeet share Saturday with a 40-minute gap — prep-heavy events with no recovery is the #1 over-scheduling regret. Also: the reception run sheet has no couple-meal block, the most-cited "wish we had" of married Reddit.
Refund terms: not stated. Deposit: 60% up front vs your studio norm of 30% and milestone-tied. The BBB complaint pile is mostly contracts, cancellations, and deposits — this card is that pile, read in advance.
Sangeet dress code edited 11 days out. Guests who bought outfits off the old one deserve to hear it from you, not from the group chat. Scoped notice drafted to 212 attending — cap-exempt: it's a correction, not a message.
Sharma household: WhatsApp Jul 2 (delivered), WhatsApp Jul 16 (delivered), call task completed Jul 23 (no answer). If they text "can't wait to see you" in October, the record answers so you don't have to.
