    Family! We both have large families and are trying to keep our guest count around 100. I think we only have 20 close friends on the list.

    Friends! His family is super small and mine is large but all the way across the country and we’re not close. Immediate family will be there, that’s about it.

    Most of our guest list will be the bride’s Family, second most will be mutual friends.

    Family makes up most of the wedding guests. My fiancé’s family is particularly big (we kept it to close friends and family, but he still had more people!), but friends are at the end of the list and we have maybe 25 to the 40 family members (estimations).

    Definitely family. They are the largest group of my guests and by far the ones I could not do without! Smiley heart

    I really didn’t want to invite too much of my family. I invited more friends than family for me. For him, he definitely invited more family than friends.

    Both, our wedding is close family (parents, siblings, grandparents, maybe aunts, uncle's and cousins and wedding party) and then the reception will have family and friends!

    Family...I have 4 sides (divorced parents) and his parents have a hundred cousins/aunts/uncles...his family is super close too, so it's almost impossible to make any cuts!

    Is mostly family that's taking up our wedding guest list because friends come a dime a dozen family don't always come a dime a dozen closest our closest ones that we actually love and care about
