Another what do you think idea...

I have been toying with the idea of creating a FB page for our friends and family that we are inviting to the wedding. (as well as the wedding party) the main reason is so that everyone can keep in touch with who is staying where when they come to town..
See, We live in San Antonio, tx.. my parents and my brothers are the only people here.  2 of my bridesmaids live here and the others are out of town.. All of the GM's are out of town. as well as the rest of the family. 
Idk if people would want to stay at a hotel close to our home or close to the wedding site (downtown) . I figured that a FB page would be an easy way to keep up with everyone and make sure that things are getting done.  Also, this way, my BM's that dont know eachother can get to meet as well as plan the bachelorette party (same with the gm's)  Or maybe instead of creating a page, i can create a group and make it private.  this way the people that arent invited to the wedding cant even see it.  hmmm...
Honestly, I want everyone to be like "that went soo SMOOTH" I dont want anyone to have any type of problems since they are coming a long way for the wedding (some will be coming in from DC and a friend will be coming in from Germany)
I just like putting ideas out there and seeing what others think. I feel that yall will be honest and say "that's just tacky" if it is. lol

Actually, that sounds like a good idea!  As the PP said, be sure that the older guests have a way to stay informed also.

Definitely not tacky.  Great idea, I agree with PP about making sure the group is private and also that everyone can access it or making sure there is an alternative for those that either aren't on FB or aren't computer savy.

Good idea.  Anything that helps people is great.  Make sure it's private.

Thanks ladies.. I dont plan on using my actual fb page.  like i said, i dont want folks that arent invited to fell bad or ask "when am i getting my invite?" or something like that.  The only people  that dont have fb pages that would be on the guest list are our grandmothers.  We will communicate with them by phone. 
Ive always imagined my wedding to be smooth and easy. I know that im going to have some bumpy roads but if i can make this a wonderful event for EVERYONE i would be soo very happy.

I have a group page on my fb account for my bridal party.  I has helped as we don't live in the same area and we can all post pictures of shoes, dresses, and what ever else I need input on.  So far it has worked great.  Good luck,

I think that is a GREAT idea.  I'm not much of a phone person, I do better with email and fb so this would work great for people like me.  I would go with a private group and definitely just figure out a way to keep the older folks involved and informed.  I might just steal this idea lol
