Mother left red-faced after accidentally inviting her entire list of 487 contacts to her daughter’s first birthday party – including her boss and her ex

A mother got the shock of her life when she discovered she had invited her entire contact list to her daughter’s birthday party.

Emily King, from San Francisco, created an e-vite for her child’s first birthday and was asked by the website if she wanted to “import her contact list.”

She thought the prompt would give her the opportunity to select the people she wanted to invite.

But not only did it import all 487 contacts onto her phone, it also gave them access to the party data and told them to come along.

“I invited not only my boss, all my coworkers, all the people ever saved in my phone,” she told her TikTok followers.

“But an invite was sent based on how they are saved in my phone. I want you to take a moment to think about everyone saved on your phone and how they are saved in your phone, and imagine them receiving an invite.”

Emily (twodachshundkings) added that Derek, who had an eye roll emoji next to his name, received an invite, along with a woman named Jess who was rescued under “Jess – hit her car in the parking lot.”

She closed the clip by saying, “I have to quit or get a new identity, I don’t even know.”

In a sequel videoshe explained that she knew something was wrong when she saw nearly 500 names on the guest list for the event.

‘I canceled the party, but unfortunately invitations had already been sent. So people could no longer see information for the party, but still had the invitation on their phone.

‘People were quite sporty about it. My boss and my ex thought it was all hilarious.

“All the unfortunate names I had in my contacts they didn’t respond to, which is probably a good thing and hopefully they don’t show up.”

As an invitation in her phone, Emily then had to have the awkward conversation about why guests could no longer access the details after she deleted the appointment.

Emily said her ex and boss found the situation hilarious, but others didn’t respond

People watched the original clip, which received 12 million views in just five days, and commented on the situation

“I had to explain to them that it’s actually more of an exclusive event,” she added.

Emily then claimed that Evite “didn’t pay for her therapy” but instead gave her a Doordash coupon that she could use to feed her guests at the actual party.

She said she was glad she published the video online because many people made her feel better about her experiences and having strange names for people in their phones.
