I've already had guests ask to bring extra people - true or false?

View Quoted Comment Oh lord no 😳 Who does she think she is??

View Quoted Comment Lol when I told her no she threatened to not come at all. I was like “bummer. what ever will I do to cope?!”


we don’t talk anymore

False but we are a year out still so it could very well happen. 🙄

No. But we are still a year out, and Jordan and I addressed our save the dates to our guests and the person we assumed they'd take. So that number is already in our headcount of how many might be there

True! My good friend has crap taste in a lot of people she spends time with and asked to bring someone I don't know at the last minute. I had to tell her no because we are already at capacity. My FW's good friend told her to give her (friend's) invite to someone else who was sitting at dinner with us in front of her!!!! It was so awkward and I am glad I was at the other end of the table because I might have lost my cool completely if not for the ability to look distracted. Then she said that she will be there but she'll have to call out so "we'll see". The other woman was so gracious when my FW talked to her later but it was not comfortable for any of us. What is with people?????

False, so far. We kinda accounted for a few extras just in case

I've actually told my fiance to tell folks he does not know the location yet...because I want it to be a surprise when the invites come in the mail. Ppl ask where all the time. My family usually has more cheap weddings and I'm really splurging on a country club I think it'll up the ante in my family's weddings minds.

True. MIL invited 3 friends and then told us about it. We had to tell her nope.

True. Fortunately it isn't an issue if people want to bring extra friends/family. We'll just need a final headcount closer to the date!

Haven't had that yet, also haven't sent out invites, so we'll see what happens!

False. I have two young kids myself so I’m not going to say “adults only” reception Im very understanding and most the people will have their children which is fine i just need to know how many children they will be bringing and add plus 2 or plus 4 next to the couples names. Not a problem with me unless they show up then that’s a different story

True true true. And then guess what... the day of the wedding they didn't show up. Shocker.

Actually no! No one has tried to bring someone extra yet! (Fingers Crossed) lol

True. I have have a few people assume they were invited or people asking if they can bring a plus one or a friend and so on.

False as of right now. However, our invites just went out a few weeks ago, so that might be a request we start hearing in the future. I hope not though, to me that is so rude.

We are doing a destination wedding/elopement. My youngest daughter and my FH's family are disappointed that they can't be there.

Not yet since we haven't sent invites out, but I don't really mind an additional 5-10 people as long as we don't go over the venue's capacity.

False. Not yet. We haven't sent out invitations yet but when my cousin got married she put on the response cards that she sent out, the number of people that were to come in that party. So it said:

We have reserved 2 seats for you

_____ We will attend

_____ We will not attend

I think this is probably the route we will take. This way there will be no questions.

False, but I'm expecting certain people I've invited to bring extra people.

True. Only one so far and it was kid related. So that was a no!
