How are you going to handle this one or do you just let her bring her 4 kids? I'm just curious...

I'm sorry that happened to you.

I have no idea!! She is the type of person who isn't going to cover her plate to begin with, which I knew and had no problem with that. But I just know she'll give $100 for 6 people and I am going to freak out. They are practically an entire table!! So I was thinking about it before...if money wasn't an issue would I want them there?? I don't think I would. Her kids can get quite out of control at times, and her one son will eat non-stop until the end and he gets sick. So I am just frustrated right now!!

Ya know what, this is your day and you shouldn't have to feel bad. She obviously didn't feel bad putting '6' down when she clearly had to notice that it was only addressed to 'Mr. & Mrs.' If you didn't invite kids, you can tell her that nicely, and if she has a problem with that well then I wouldn't want her there anyway!

you should call her and tell her that, although you'd love to have her kids there, you can't afford to invite them (or use the 'no more room at the RH' excuse) ...

I totally agree...she has to understand, but if she doesn't, just be prepared for a NO response. I would be okay with that though.

I would call her an explain to her that you can not fit 4 more people, even children, at the RH. 4 people OMG!!! Why would someone think its ok to just add 4 people. Thats insane. I would also add to the conversation that you totally understand if this means that her and her husband cant make it.

Tell her that due to money and space restrictions, you are keeping it an 'adult only' reception. How can she argue with that?

I will probably use the excuse that we are tight on money, which we are. I can't say that kids aren't invited because we do have quite a few coming, but with one exception, they are all family. I just wish she had taken the hint!!

Wow thats ballsy!!!! People should know that if you wanted their whole family, you would have addressed it as such!

Call her and say noooooo!

You should not have to explain yourself. The invitation CLEARLY says MR. & MRS. Plain and simple. Simply tell her that. Its an adult only reception. You dont like it, DON'T COME!!!!!!
