So first off let me say that we are not actually fighting but he is very adamant about keeping he guest list small. I agree wholeheartedly and fight now our List is at I think 35. His extended family is not being invited because he does not know any of them really and they are crazy. His words not mine. I wanted to invite my aunt and uncle (dads side) because we went to my cousins wedding a few years back. He is ok with that but when I tried to include my cousin and her husband (we went to their wedding) he was like " no I don't know them and don't want to invite people just because you feel guilty that we need to". So I understand not wanting someone there because you don't know them but we went to their wedding! Also my younger cousin (brother of cousin from wedding) lives with my uncle and aunt. So when I said we have to invite him, he was like " I know him even less! Just because he lives there doesn't mean he should be invited!"
