So I've been getting together my guest list recently and chose an all-inclusive venue. The venue coordinator said it would be okay to have additional guests show up post ceremony to enjoy the reception and party with us even if they are not listed as guests. The way the venue counts guests is the number of plates, so once those run out, they run out. Booze is provided by us so no worries on the venue for that. My thing is.....do I want additional guests to come if they are not involved in/did not witness my ceremony? Would I want guests that I did not personally add to the guest list to come? My mom's perspective is that these will be the people that may not be immediate family that I vividly remember, but they still would like to be a part of this step in my life. I don't want anyone to feel like I don't want them there. It also wouldn't be very many people, so should I just add them to the list? side-note: We're staying conscious of the list to keep costs as low as possible. Is this a good option and I should be open to it? Or should I have who I feel should really be there and not have to worry about who may just "show up"? Any advice?
