Shower guest list woes...

So my mom needs to guarantee 55 people at the Irish Coffee Pub. My guest list is only 52 people bc FMIL said not to invite anyone from her side Sooo my mom keeps coming up with people to invite who I now have to invite to the wedding... but I still don't think she's going to have enough people and it's just costing ME more money!!!

Who wants to come to my shower!!! LOL!!!!!

is there anyway she can work out a deal with the people. maybe instead of guaranteeing 55 ppl she can put that money towards something else....instead of trying to scramble for more ppl.

That's a smart idea....

I want to call and ask these things myself but she doesn't want me to really have any part in the planning. She's already not happy I know this much!! I can't convince her to ask though she said she feels weird.

Seriously! Though my FMIL was weird about inviting people, too. Then after the invites went out she thought of like 10 people to friggin add.

But definitely tell her to call and ask about freebies!

Can you just explain to your FMIL that you will be paying for the extras anyway and if she could give you a list of a few ppl to invite from her side it would be great...

Becasue she's strange. And I guess because most people from OOT won't come for a shower but I have some OOT fam and we still invited them. They would insulted if I hadn't... so because FMIL is a psycho FH is going to have a bunch of insulted female family members...

The only person she does want me to invite is FBIL's FW.

I think she liked this room for some reason. It's because as Italians were stubborn so instead of changing the room we'll just start adding people to the list.

Oh vom. Hopefully FBIL's FW's invite will get 'lost in the mail!'

You can invite me I'm a good gift-giver too. And you won't have to invite me to the wedding, because I have to work that day anyway
