Who's coming to your wedding?

I had a lot of family there but my husband didn’t... he invited I think 10 relatives and only 5 came. He was fine honestly... he has close friends that are like family, and after that day my family is his too!

We had 65 total guests at our wedding. I have a huge family, his is very small. To keep things as fair as possible, I opted out of inviting any friends and only really close family while he invited all of his friends and family.

Our guests list is primarily family, pretty much split down the middle in terms of numbers on his side and my side. Other than that, there are only a couple of friends/coworkers.

Mostly family. Most of our friends are in the bridal party already. Then we just have a few friends and my co-workers invited. We both have large extended families that we wanted to invite so that is taking up the vast majority of the guest list.

My husband has a larger family and more friends than me so most of the people were on his side.

We have mostly friends that are more like family on our list, and I have more family coming because he is not inviting anyone on his dads side!

We are an older couple (50s), and as such, neither of us have a lot of family left. FH will have his parents, aunt and uncle, a couple of cousins and his two grown sons. I have my two siblings, an aunt and my daughter and granddaughter. The rest of our list (about 70) is all friends.

We had 53 guests and only 13 were family.

Current guest list 157 ppl

So surprisingly even haha. My family is just a bit smaller. We definitely expect a lot of people to not come since it's pretty much a destination wedding.

We have 40ish people on our list. 7 family members for each of us (parents, siblings+their immediate family+a living grandmother each), I don't expect 2 of mine to come due to the travel required. I have 2x the number of friends that he does on our list. Mailing Save-the-Dates so we'll see how that starts to pan out. I've texted almost everyone in advance anyway since the date is a Friday.

I only had a few friends, almost all family. My husband only had his mom and best man, which made me upset even if he was cool about it .

15 guests at our DW, evenly split friends vs family.


50 guests at our local reception. Only 3 family members.

I don't have much family here to begin with so my wedding was mostly friends

Only immediate family are coming to ours.

My family includes my parents, 2 sisters and my sister's fiance.

His family includes his mom, his mom's fiance, and his brother.

Ours will be mostly my family and both of our friends.

I did the math and 40% of our invited guests was family, 40% were friends, and 20% were family friends (mostly friends of our parents).

Family. Mostly mine, FH family live out of state. His mom can't travel unfortunately, so we are going stream it for them.

We are inviting 100 people and most of them are family. We are inviting some friends.
