Most Common Wedding Guest List Issues + How to Solve Them 

This is precisely why we ultimately decided to elope. I don't want any family at the wedding. Partly because there are a lot of people that I just don't like enough to have there, and others who I like but not their significant others that I can't not invite as well. Some of the friends I wanted there are friends with one of my parents or other relatives and it would be awkward for my family not to be there. I would rather not have a wedding than have to deal with the family drama so off to the courthouse we go!

I didn’t even think about assigning someone for watching out for someone! I have a family member who can be attracted to drama (who doesn’t?!) so I might assign my sister that job!!! Poor girl... lol

Hi, great video and I have a couple of concerns that I am not even sure how to address. My best friend, whom I love dearly, has invited her mom and 2 sisters to our vow renewal outdoor ceremony at our home. ( the invite was just for her and her husband).She is also bringing her dog. Ive another guest ( my husbands aunt and uncle) who are coming from out of town, who is also bringing their dog, which happens to hate other dogs. Help! I can not do anything about the out of town guest and their dog as they are coming a long way but how do I prevent my friend (who is spending the night in her RV at our place) from inviting more people and bringing her dog? We have indoor cats so dogs can not be in our home.

Hello! We're having an issue with not exceeding the venue's seating capacity. We've already sent STDs and now the bride & groom have new job positions and would like to add several co-workers to the invite list. If the number is 300, is it dangerous to invite 30-40 over? I realize not everyone will attend but what if more than the venue will allow do? Any advice would be appreciated!

What about a wedding with out of state guests? We have a whole list of out of state how do you handle that with the venue?

I know this video is a couple years old. But I'm hoping someone sees this and can offer advice on how to deal with this person. My fiance and I are set to be married October 2, 2021. His brother is his best man. But his wife refuses to let him attend without her, knowing full well she isn't wanted there. His wife has caused many issues of contention between his family and her, and myself and her. She has even gone as far as to try to break my fiance and I up. But she won't let him (my fiance's brother attend without her for fear of missing out or him cheating again) how do I handle this. The last thing I want is to see her on my wedding day or deal with any of her antics. I already have 3 people there who will be on her like white on rice. But it doesn't change that she is a manipulative narssacist and I know she is wanting to cause problems. (She is still trying to cause problems currently)
