Hello fellow brides!
I really don't want a huge wedding due to my FH having a large family we are having a large wedding. However, I put my foot down on 250 guest. My venue allows 650 so the space is not an issue. I would personally rather go to vegas lol and save money. But anyways.. His parents are separated and my parents aren't. My parents have 72 people coming. His mom alone has invited over 85. The rest are the bridal party and our friends. I have asked for a guest list since November now that I am in full planning mode. Its time to start buying center pieces that I am making and lock in with my cater and decorator. My Future father in law has not given me a list and we both have been asking for months.
Is it fair to give him the rest which is 40? It seems fair? I refuse to go over 250. My parents are helping with cost. My FH mother has been helping as well. The rest will be FH and I.
Also my FH sister in law told me that the dad didn't really help with their wedding and that it was pulling some leg to even get him pay for the rehearsal. So if the rest of us are paying for it than telling him hes only allowed 40 guest is okay?
