I’m going slightly over budget and catering is costing an arm and a leg. My guest list is currently at 84. From my family alone there’s 41 and my fiancé has about 14 or fifteen the rest are friends. My mom is one of 12 kids each of her siblings have between 3-7 kids of their own (my first cousins) my dads side is small just him and his brother, his brother has no kids and then I have my dads aunt, who is my great aunt and her two daughters, my second cousins. I feel there’s no way I can cut my moms side of the family out since they’re all siblings. I can’t invite the aunts and uncles and not their kids or vise versa. I always knew my moms side would overpopulate our wedding but I didn’t know the pricing of catering at the time.
I’m scared to cause any bad blood within the family and I know my mom is going to be so pissed if I don’t invite all of her sisters and brothers and their kids. I feel so stuck.
