    Same! I reached out to most of my family via private messages on facebook.
    I messaged alot of my fh family well.
    For some of his family who are older and we dont have their #. I contacted his great aunt and she had tons of addresses. It was a huge help! Only have a few addresses i still need to get

    Yep pretty much. FH and I posted on facebook to our families asking for people to send us their addresses, and one whole person did it. Reaching out to each individual works so much easier, even if it is more work. You'll actually hear back from people that way

    We created a google spreadsheet and sent it to each of our mothers, they filled in most of the family and family friends. Then we just texted all our friends.

    I used postable. You have a link, send it out, they fill in a form, it collects what you need.

    My sister got married about a year and a half ago and I know she is a super organizer and would still have them all so I had her send the spreadsheet to me. I did have to follow up with a few but as others have said, text, email, Facebook messaging all work

    My FH cousin had everyone on his dad side of the family. So that made it easier. But for my family I had some of them but others i had to just message them.

    FH Aunt has a list of everyone addresses in their family. So that helped as they are a lot of them.

    i knew most of my families/friends round about addresses so I used white pages for most. For the rest I called my Aunt for her daughters addresses, texted my dad for his friends addresses, & texted my cousin to confirm her address.

    Yep!! My FH got his friends, I got mine. My mom gave me all of my family and our neighbors, and his mom gave us her family and friends. We made a Google doc with all of them for easy reading and keeping!

    I created a Google Form asking them for all their contact information and sent it out to everyone. For those that are older and aren't as tech savvy, I asked a close relative to reach fill it out for them. For anyone that doesn't fill it out, I'll be directly messaging them with the request, then texting them, then calling them. Then I'll just assume they don't want to come if I don't get an answer.
