sat down with the in-laws today and list of people to invite to the wedding and it is only 82....i was expecting something like 120 or at least 100....I do not mind having a small wedding but I feel like a lot of RH do not accommodate this small of a wedding....kinda bummmed but at least it will be a lot cheaper haha
Dont worry- i was worried about the same thing. We wound up with 77 people, and it worked out BEAUTIFULLY! We actually got to talk to everyone! We got to eat. We got to dance, and spend time together. I loved having a smaller wedding! It'll be great!
youre lucky!!!
keep thinking about it. people come out of the wood work!

I know what you mean! Our RH has a 100 person minimum and I was like oh awesome, thats perfect, we wanted around 100. We make the complete list of EVERYONE to be invited, including the people that won't come, too old, too far away, etc.but will still get an invite. And when we did the best guestimate of who we think will actually show up, it was less than 100. I know people surprise you with Weddings sometimes, but we have soo many OOT'rs and they're all so CHEAP, that I don't think they'll come.
Even if a RH has a minimum that you don't think you'll make, see if you can work a deal, and if you love a place and has a min, don't think of it as a price per person, multiply the costs by the minimum number and think of it as a flat fee, if you can afford it, great, if not, there are tons of places around!
Can I be the first to volunteer to be a seat filler at your wedding?
I won't worry. My mom was famous for doing this and then when we sent out the invitations she would like 'You, know we should really invite Mr. I haven't seen since I was 3. ' We ended adding a lot more people to the list.
