Be My Guest!

When it comes to your guest list, things can be tricky. With expectations running high and the budget maybe not so, just how do you manage to please Uncle Tom Coblers and all, avoid a family crisis and keep your budget in check?


While we can't wave a magic wand, we can certainly aim to help make the process easier. Check out our online gift list and member budget calculator in our member area http://www.mrs2be.com/belladonna-registration.php


Here also are a few of our hints and tips that may help:


Set a rule that if you've not seen a friend (long standing excepted) for over 6 months, consider inviting them as an evening guest only, especially if you really could have made the effort to meet up


Try not to feel under pressure from family members, explain your reasons for wanting to stick to your numbers and ask them to respect your decision


If guests are expecting children to be invited and there are none in the wedding party itself, set another rule inviting adults only


When inviting newish partners of friends consider inviting them to the evening reception only, even if the friend is attending during the day as well


Happy Planning!
