I thought we made our guest lists and we already sent out all of our invites.
But after posting our e-pics on fb some people have started asking if they are invited they want to come.
They were not invited...but fmil has messaged me their names.
Ive never met or heard of them until now.
When we first started planning it was going to be a small wedding 30 to 40 ppl and its grown to 60 to 70
Now 7 more ppl want to come :/
Fmil already keeps saying she worries if everyone shows up it will be too crowded
Should I invite the extras or somehow nicely say no?
Is it worth fighting over?

I can safely blame my venue if and when this happens. Both me and my fiancé wanted a small wedding so we picked a venue and package that doesn't allow over 55 guests. We already have all our guests nailed down but both mothers have tried to invite people that are not on the list/we don't want there/ have not seen since we were literal toddlers. At first mine thought it was a money issue and offered to pay for them. I had to keep reiterating that it's a space issue and finally she got it. Tell them you can't accommodate them nicely as you've already sent out the invites and you don't have the space. Even some people RSVP no.
