no specific questions here just want to vent a little. FI and I came up with the guest list months ago and sent STD's back in July. We originally told FI's mom she had 50 people she could invite. I sent her her list months ago (per her request). A few weeks ago, I printed out her list and had her edit it. We took our envelopes to the calligrapher 2 weeks ago. Somewhere along the line we had miscounted her list and thought she had 5-7 more people she could invite. She added 2 more and 2 others tentatively. She had the address for the first 2 but not the other 2. We told her to let us know by the next day by 1 pm when we were leaving for the calligrapher's. At 12:30 she calls us and tells us to just add the 2 more people she already gave us and forget about the other 2. Yesterday FI tells me his mom had only counted 43 and wants to invite 7 more people, at which point we go through the list AGAIN (for the 50th time) and it turns out she is at 52. We are up to 177 and our room holds 150. My mom is inviting 20 more people than FI's mom because my mom's people are all out of town and more of them won't come vs. FI's mom whose friends are mostly local (with a few OOT friends and family). We finally told her we're going to hold off on inviting them until we know that at least 40 people aren't coming.
