Hi Knotties!
Ok, so I was out with my best friend tonight who is my MOH, and she told me that her two sisters want to come to my wedding. I am already inviting her parents, but I wasn't expecting this to be a family affair. I am only really close to her. She said it is strange to just invite part of her family and not the rest because they will feel left out. I told her that our guest list is a whopping 250 ppl, and this is AFTER CUTTING PEOPLE I CARE ABOUT. I guess she thinks, ok, 250 ppl, what's two more? I'm not sure she understands the stress I am under to trim the guest list. The thing is, she's my best friend, and I want her to be happy as MOH and not think I am secluding her sisters from the Christian event and reception.
I am also having a Persian wedding the next day, should I just invite her sisters to that (but still invite her parents to the Christian ceremony)? When I suggested that to her, she still didn't seem happy. Should I care this much?? What do you all think? Cough up the extra $170, or just invite her sisters to the smaller Persian ceremony the next day?
Any thoughts would be appreciated!!
Thanks,
Sheri
