  Tell your fiance to tell her that the final guest list has been complete and invitation mailed. There is no room to make changes at this point and there will be no discussion about it.
  
  Inviting people at this point would be b-listing them and would be rude.
  

  
  
  You'll never be subject to a cash bar, gap, potluck wedding, or b-list if you marry a Muppet Overlord.

  I am down to 24 days till my wedding so I sent over the table seating to my mother in law to go over and make sure it was all good cause I know a few people do not get along so just wanted to make sure everybody would be happy. She comes back with well did you invite this person and this person and this person.. no I did not because I was told not to but yet a few of those people are coming anyways. I do not even have any more invites to send out I am all out. I would have to order more favors or make more tags for favors and let alone I need to have my final head count.. Is it me just being annoyed or what. Sorry if it does not even make sense.

  Who are these people? Why are they 'coming anyway'? 

  
  

  At 24 days out, I wouldn't be willing to accommodate these guests unless there's a good reason to.

  
  

  I would also be furious. And I would have your FI deal with his mother about who these people are and why they're coming if they weren't invited. 

  

  
  

  
  

  I'm gonna go with 'not my circus, not my monkeys.'

  Wait, so they weren't invited, but they are coming anyway, and you're trying to accommodate? Take a moment to think about your venue and its capacity. If you're pushing capacity, that is against fire code and there will be repercussions for that violation on the day of. 

  
  

  Look at this and your budget and fairly (but firmly) tell your FMIL that invitations have already gone out, and that if she wanted these people to be invited, then she should have told you months ago. I would be annoyed, too, if FMIL started pushing me to invite more people when I was down to the wire!

  24 days out and you have your seating chart ready? I envy you. I JUST finished mine. When I was asked if someone could invite more people I just said no.

  These people are my father in law brothers, sister, and mom. Whom I have never met. When I first did my guest list I was told not to invite them because they probably would not come anyways so I did not invite them, then I was told yesterday to please invite them. I do have the room on my guest list and it will not change the price because 100-150 people the price is the same no matter what. But my final head count is due on May 6th. I only have two invites left so I would have to make two other invites and I wouldn't know what to do with the rsvp card because the date on it is for april 16 not sometime in May.
