So I'm in the process of waiting for my last few RSVPs and im SO angry! We wanted to have no more than 100 ppl (10 tables at most) the room we have at the rusty pelican doesn't look good crammed with a lot of tables.
We invited about 120 people knowing that a few of them wouldn't show up, being out of towners and older people that weren't going to travel, we still sent them an invite to be courteous. As expected those people are replying no as well as others that were expected to be there, things were looking great until... I got an rsvp for 6 people when it was only intended for 2 (thats more than half a table) I was very clear in addressesing the envelopes, Married couples were addressed as Mr. and Mrs. Mans name, married couple with children not invited to the wedding same, married couple with children invited to the wedding same with AND family. We invited a neighbor of FI out of guilt so they wouldnt feel bad, they have grown children not invited to the wedding, totalling 5 people in the house. We addressed it with Mr. and Mrs. man's name and they sent me an rsvp for 6 meaning one of their non-invited kids is bringing a gf... my mother (who is paying) is livid and so am I what would you do? this is FI parent's neihgbors they have known forever. I wanted to take the "this is a very intimiate affair and it was intended just for you 2" approach) but I dont want to create friction... HELP
