FI and I picked out wedding rings this weekend. I actually picked mine last week, but we went and picked it up, and picked out his ring. I love that he wants to wear it now (in fact, he wore it around the house last night!).
I got an RSVP card back from my FI's cousin, and we had invited her and her son and daughter that still live with her (they live about 6 hours away, so they're making a special trip up for the wedding)...NBD. Except she RSVPed for 9! She wrote the following note on the back of the card:
"I hope you don't mind, I told V and D (her daugher and SIL) that they could come to and bring the kids. They'll also be babysitting 2 other kids for a couple weeks, so they'll be bringing them too. Can't wait to see you!"
Oy. So, FI or I will have to have a totally awkward chat with her about this, because we really don't have room for all the kiddos. We had 2 people RSVP regrets, so there's room for her daughter and H, but I don't want all those kids there (not sure how old the other kids are, but V's kids are almost 2 and 8 months). Our venue can only hold a max of 120, and if everyone on our guest list shows, we'll be at 108, so there's not a lot of wiggle room (that being said, I am sure that at least a few more people will not come).
Wow, this is long. Sorry about that! I guess I can just be happy about everyone's excitement over the wedding, right?
