Hey everyone!

So my mom is kind of taking over my guest list and by kind of I mean that I have more of her requests on the list than I do my own friends! She wants to invite old co-workers who I have not seen in years!!!! Sure when we were kids we used to see them and hang out with their kids at family friend functions/holidays but I haven't seen them in years. These people have children who have significant others. My question to you is if I invite the family, do I have to include a plus one for their children's significant others whom I've never met??

(One of their kids is living with his gf)

Also are there any cut off rules for inviting people? Say, do I have to invite my old roommate whom I haven't spoken to in a while but was there when my fiance and I first started dating??

What are some of the rules you ladies are following when it comes to finalizing the guest list??

Please help!!!!!

    Even IF pay, NO SAY!!! It's YOUR and your spouse's wedding. IDGAF who your mom wants to invite, if YOU don't GAF about them, DON'T INVITE THEM!!! END. OF. STORY. And you can CHECK THAT off your little list as a NON ISSUE, because it's about the two of you, NOT THEM!!!
