I'm planning a wedding quite far, it's not a destination wedding but it's 3+ hours away from most of the friends and family we want to invite, and a few guests that are out of state.
We're going through the guest list and we have about 16 over our limit. I do expect quite a few people to not come to our wedding because it is very far and some people may not want to travel so far especially with children...
In order to reserve the venue we picked, we have a food and beverage minimum we needed to reach, and we are having a small wedding of 50 to 60 people so reaching a minimum is somewhat difficult.
Should I under invite people and not be able to reach my minimum or over invite and have too many people? I'm worried if I over invite and expect people not to come, they might actually RSPV and come after all and I'll have to many guests.
Help!
TIA!!
