    As his mother said, “it’s a process.” I invited the minimum of who was the most important. He wanted to invite everyone and their mother. We compromised at a happy medium and I would say it’s pretty even across he board now.

    I would say me, since he is doubtful most of his family will travel for the wedding

    He is. My family doesnt like the fact that i finally found someone who makes me happy , they would rather see me alone and miserable because thats just how they are, needless to say no invites for them bc why would i invite people who dont accept me being happy

    FH is definitely inviting more! His family is about double the size of mine, and his friend list is larger.

    We have it split pretty evenly. I have the slight edge of more guests. However I have a HUGE family and he doesn't, so he's got more friends invited than I do.

    Me. yeah him and I have joked about this repeatedly. Every generation in my family has like 10 kids and stays in touch (because they all live really close and all go to the same church every Sunday lol)with all extended family and so many different family friends have been added that become like extended family through the generations. His family on the other hand has one kid that they (and I mean like everyone in his family) hand off to the grand parents. no one stays married and everyone moves away and doesn't talk to anyone else. so needless to say we have had a lot of talks about the wedding, marriage, and children lol

    It is kind of mutual on the number of guest due to us being in a Motorcycle Club.

    FH is inviting more people than me. He has more family in NJ than I do and I'm fine with that. I have more friends coming than he does. IT balances itself out. My fear is missing out on the wedding because we are spending so much time visiting that we dont get a chance to dance/party

    I would say it is about the same. We're only have 33 guests (not including us).
