I'm about to send out my save the date cards, but still dealing with the guest list problem... The Olowalu Plantation House charges different rate for under 50 guests to 50-99 guests.
I've done my best to make my guest list as short as possible. My current guest list is like 48-50 people (including 8 groom's relatives whom even the groom himself doesn't know... They are invited by the groom's parents). A few of our invited guests are not married, which means they may or may not bring a plus one. Also, the groom's parents probably will invite more ppl to our wedding. If I expect 100% invited guests will attend, the final guest number may turn out to be like 50-60 people. The problem is... I have a tight budget and I really don't want to pay $781.25 more for the venue fee for just 10 more guests...
Can anyone give me some advices? Thank you.
