J and I are having a discussion and we've come to a roadblock because we don't know the proper etiquette to continue. I have always wanted a VERY small wedding, and J has always wanted a large one (read: everyone from his church, which on average is about 200 people, not including my family). We had originally planned to just invite 100 people between the both of us, but my mom brought up the suggestion of an "immediate family only" wedding with a larger reception to follow, to appease us both.
I know from other posts on the board that this can be acceptable, but here is our question: what consitutes immediate family? I say just our parents and siblings and he says our grandparents and aunts/uncles/cousins should be included in that number. I'm not sure what the etiquette rules dictate and I don't want to offend anyone if this is what we decide to do. So...halp?
