Hi Lovely Brides!
My wedding is Aug 24th!! IT's Almost Here and I am SOOO excited! I just had a quick question. My mother and father in law are hosting and throwing the rehearsal dinner (So sweet of them!) It is the only part of the wedding they are paying for..we are doing everything else on our own as far as money goes. (My parents are helping out alot with DIY stuff and general planning)
We have had one sit down MONTHS ago with his family to talk about the rehearsal dinner. She told us a general plan and where she had booked. Then she tells us that she is planning for around 40 people!! That seemed like a lot considering with grandparents, Spouses of wedding party flower girls, parents, and us, we are only at 25! So I asked who else she was thinking about inviting. I also want to take a moment to say I had made a point to say early in the planning of this that we wanted to keep it low key and simple. Only invite please coming to the rehearsal. (2 different locations)
MIL says that she wants to invite any out of town guest that may already be in town that is family. So all cousins, aunts, uncles...etc...
She is paying for it so I said if that is what she wants the more the merrier! Its not like we get a ton of time with them any ways! My question is we are 44 days from the wedding and still crickets! So I had FH ask what the plan was for invites...How are we going to let these people know that they are invited to this dinner?
He gave her a call and asked if she was sending invites...She said no. SOOOO What am I suppose to do? Make my own call on who to tell?? DO you think it would be over stepping if I created an E-vite or a smaller post card with the details and information on it to send out?
Am I just crazy?? and getting caught up in all of the details!?? I just think they should know where and when at least and I dont want the responsibility of personally inviting all of these people and making sure they took down the information correctly. Cause day of they will be calling ME!
**Sorry this was sooo long.. but also Im not cause it was good to get it off my chest
