I think several of us can relate to you. Sometimes I think people get an invite, see it's a DW, and completely shut their minds to the idea. They automatically think it is too expensive without really checking into it...or at least that's what happened to me. We sent out over 60 invites and got 10 back saying yes. FI doesn't have any of his people coming except mom, dad, and sister. It does get frustrating at times, but you have to remeber you are getting ready to marry the love of your life, and that is the most important thing!
