So I'm all done...

With my invitation spreadsheet-- Well, I'm done with Vinny's side (my side is EASY). When I finish mine, I need to send them off to the Calligrapher.

The thing that struck me though which compelled me to post out of sheer shock...

Vinny's side ALONE: About 230 People and 115 or so Invites

My Side: About 55 People and hmm 25-30 Invites.

Re: So I'm all done...

Our list sounds like the opposite!

So far my family alone is 100 people
FH's parents & friends is 57 people
Our combined friends is 48 people

I guess it's better than having both sides be HUGE-- right?

Did you try talking to FIL about possibly cutting the list at all?

Re: So I'm all done...

wow we have the exact opposite and it's REALLY uneven

currently, we have 174 on my side (and i know my mom has added people to her list since this one)

and only 24 on FH's side!!!!

i guess that's what happens when FH and fam are all in San Diego and the wedding is in NY.

Our numbers aren't really close to yours, but FH and I basically have the opposite.

I have the astronomical list compared to FH! I have a HUGE family and his is pretty much nonexistent! His family is OOT so there's not many family 'friends' invited either. So most of his list is friends and he does have alot at least!

Yesssssssssssssssss

Peter has a Pasquale on his list too!! I was like really??? Can it get any more off the boat??

You would thoroughly enjoy our list Dani....
We've got Peter's very americanized side of one million Frankies, Michael, Peter and Joe's.
To a few of the fabulously vowel prone off the boat names.
To my dad's Puerto Rican list...which is a lot of Francisco Pineda Sierra de la Vega(oh hell..just add in the third while we are at it)...a million of those with four last names.
To my moms very small German list of Juergen und Silke Nattermann or KarlHeinz Diefendorf.

No crap...its the United Nations of a guest list I have.

LOL...I love Vin's list Dani...you must admit....it makes for a great chuckle
