Guest List

[LuckyBride710]

So i've written out a guest list of just the basics. I'm at 65. but i'm not guestimating alot of friends and extended family due to their finances.

 

Is it ok to assume that these people aren't coming? I hate to say it but is there anyway to avoid inviting people. My point of a vegas wedding was to keep it small.

With a destination wedding it's safe to assume that about half of the people you invite won't come. I invited 100 and I have 46 people confirmed.

Are you planning to have an AHR? I would say invite what you can afford..I mean we are in a recession but Vegas is not that expensive..and another thing to consider is between now & then ppl might get Christmas work bonuses, tax returns and decide to come esp with all the specials that have been advertised. I thought a lot of ppl weren't gonna come and now some are thinking they will be able to make it..

If you want it small..then do small numbers..and invite everyone else to the AHR if you plan on having one..that is what we are planning..just my 2Cents...HTH!

We have 60 on our guestlist. Our wedding package is for 40, but I'm thinking 30 at the most will come.

 

We are not inviting any extended family, just close friends (that we have talked to w/in the year. We don't live in our hometown, so we're not inviting people that are just on our facebook because we know them) and immediate family.
