Wedding Guest List Tips

Wedding guest list

Hand write it, or type it out! Get creative!

Okay, so here are a couple of things to think about in regards to your guest list: 1. In your head, 400 people attending your wedding sounds like a party! I mean, who doesn’t want a wedding like Duchess Kate?  But remember that more people equals more money.  Nothing like maxing out the credit card to start your marriage on the right foot.  2. Who should you invite?  Well, that is where it gets tricky.  Your parents want to invite everyone they know, you want to invite everyone you know, and ultimately some people will be on the cut list.  Remember that some invites you send will be to relatives or friends who will be unable to attend.  Don’t leave people out because you are assuming they will not make it! It is polite to invite those far away guests anyways, and you may even receive a gift in return!  3.  All that being said, put some time into creating your guest list.  Get others involved in the process so you make sure you aren’t missing someone.  This part can be very time consuming, but the earlier it gets done, the more time you have to make edits and plan out costs later on.
