--people who *were* in your life and you had a lot of fun together with, but haven't seen much recently (eg, college friends)
--people who *are* in your life at the moment (but there is no reason to think they will be in the future; in my case, I'm moving to a different city when I get married, so I imagine that I will only "take" a couple of my closest friends with me.)
--people who *will be* in your life (perhaps this is the most difficult to tell, the only certainty would be family. As I mentioned above, since I'm moving, this category would include more of the friends in my FI's city, where we will live.)
But, in my case, since the wedding will be in the city I currently live in, I think that the people in my first two categories would be more likely to come!
Another question:
Does anyone else have a position where a lot of people "look up to" or know them? Like, a teacher? In my case, I'm a choir director as well as a piano teacher, so I see all of these people for an hour or more every week. I can't possibly invite all of them, but maybe there is some of them with whom over the years I have developed a slightly closer relationship...can I invite just some of them? (They all know each other, so, yes, they would find out.) For those who are in a similar position, like teachers of some sort, it's strange how all of these people who I relate with probably think of me as being closer than I feel to them... like, I'm their ONLY piano teacher, but from my perspective, I have LOTS of students and I can't invite them all.
Any thoughts?
