i'm sure this has been asked before at some point...
his parents just sent names of some extended family and family friends they want to invite.
how do i politely say sorry, but no?
i really would be happy with a very intimate wedding of just 20 people, but i don't think that's feasible, so we were planning on inviting just close family and friends (but still ending up around 75 guests). also, my parents are paying for everything, his haven't really offered, and i'm not expecting them to (and i'd never ask that).
it would be so much easier to elope!
