Potato, potahhhhto. I personally felt it was more important to treat the people I like well than to invite every joe schmo I've met on the street or may have gone to high school with their sister's cousin's brother, but whatever.

I think what the OP thinks is more important than hosting well is getting lots and lots of gifts. And probably a cash bar.

That would be rude! <strong>W</strong><strong>ould it make you all happy if I served ALL of my guests a 5-course meal? Or do you think I should just feed them all BBQ</strong>?

If I was ashamed of the hell I have been through, I wouldn't have made it public knowledge!

I would bet my house that the OP doesn't know what "five course meal" really means.

ETA: But OP, my suggestion to go with bbq for the entire 500 was sincere. I love bbq and it goes great with beer. What's the menu for your 5 course meal?
