Inviting yourself

[Deleted User] · September 2012

Did anybody else forget to count themselves and FI when doing a count of who is coming? I mean we invited 90 but technically we have 92 and this will come in handy when we send in the final count for the caterer! I remembered to add us to the rehearsal dinner so that is something

I did because we had to make note of what our entree choices were, but I think I kept forgetting, adding, re-adding, etc. us to my signature count.

I put ourselves as the first people on our list of who to invite because I knew I'd forget otherwise.

We forgot until we realized we needed to make a food selection, too!

I forgot until this post. Thanks! haha.

I remembered. But since we're doing plated meals we have to tell the venue what we want so that's probably why.

My goodness did you read my mind last night or what?!? I was counting our RSVPS and relished this. We mailed invites last Friday and received 8 back on Tuesday! WHooo hoo!

I didn't include ourselves or my parents in the total number of invites but we're on the spreadsheet that my master headcount is coming off of. Gotta love the "Sum" function in Excel

I did it because our ceremony/reception site has a strict maximum capacity limit. We needed to get our guest list trimmed down considerably to meet it. If we left ourselves out of the count, we could have easily ended up inviting more people than allowed.

I never would have thought of that! Ha ha! I did remember to add the photographer and dj though so that's something. Man, I have so many details left...
