They are still my friends, but we don't see each other all the time. Anyway, we decided to have it at Matt's parents house cuz we could possibly add back people that we cut. I was wondering if anyone has done this type of party and what the cost was. We want it to be nice, but not formal. Matt is supposed to be finding this info out, which is why I don't know, and I am trying not to step on his toes and let him do it, but it's driving me crazy. Sorry, this post is kinda all over the place.

that is so funny -"down the shore" - only the diehard PA/NJ people are going to get that ;-)

I know, I would much prefer a small party (hence the fact we choose an DW!), but my FFIL is one of 11 siblings, my dad is one of 7 and my mom is one of 6, his mom just has 2 sisters, but they all have a few kids (our ages) as well. We both have pretty large groups of friends that we managed to stay in touch with, so it's hard to cut it down. Also, since my FFIL is from Italy, and has family is Australia and New Zealand, it appears that extended family likes to attend functions as well, when they can.

I feel you Carly - marrying into a huge family myself! And his family from Trinidad, England, Ireland, Canada, etc all usually travel for things like weddings - and most plan on attending our AHR. Argh! Maybe we could combine forces and have our own ginormic UN-type gathering! haha!!!
