how did this happen!?!?!?!?

I just got an email from her that my invitations are in the final edit process and i need to send over my guest list. I checked it today and realized we were missing names and now we're up to 277 guests

i know i added + 1 for my close friends which i think won't come with a guest but still!!! FH thinks he has a few more to add

our minimum is 175 and i budgeted for 250 guests!! this is turning into a nightmare!

so far, i have that we need 146 invitations based on this guest list. Do you guys think that 155 is enough? or should i increase it to 160???

Thanks!

155 is enough. Buying more will just make you invite more people!! Enough is enough! If you can't think of them the first time you made the list (and the many months you thought about it after) then do they really need to be there?

if you are sure you wont be needing anymore 155 is fine... If you think its possible to add more people better to go with 160 to be safe

That should be fine unless you have a B list

Hi weekend twin!


I'm in the same boat! My 165 Invitations for like 254 guests is on the way. AUGH. Are you SURE you have EVERYONE you want to invite? Have you checked over the list to estimate how many you think will actually come? In other words, will you need to add more for a B-list?

I think I ended up having her address 130 envelopes and I ordered 165 invitations because I panicked. I think I would have been safe with 20 extra, but I have to say I've already thought of about 6 invitations I'm going to have to hand address.

i know! i'm starting to panic too!! i'm done on my side but FH and his mom might not be. we only have an extra 9 invitations right now and FH thinks he might add more. I'm thinkingn of just adding an extra 5 more. I added 5 more last week and it was only $22 more so i think we can spare another or maybe more if she has to order more materials...jeesh. i could kill him!

and NO B-LIST!

I'm so scared of the +1's, 'cause they can add a lot to ur guest list

ask ur FH for his final number (I think u said he still needs to add more people) and after that count how many invites u must have and then add 10 more just in case
