TRIMMING YOUR WEDDING GUEST LIST

Each time you add a name to your invitation list, you are increasing your budget significantly. It's not just the catering costs, but also the extra centerpieces, souvenirs, rentals etc.

- Don't invite anyone you haven't talked to in five years
- Don't feel obligated to let single people bring a date.
- Avoid feeling pressured to invite all your work colleagues.
- And don't let your friends bring their children.
- You can also decide to eliminate categories like "relatives more distant than first or second cousins".

Like they say, it's easier to ask for forgiveness than to ask for permission. After the wedding, you can apologise to the people you "failed" to invite. So control your crowd by limiting the invitations you send out. For example, don't publicise your wedding on social media like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram if you aren't ready for a large crowd. No BBM broadcasts as well. Bulk SMS? Use with discretion; the inexpensive nature of this platform may get you carried away into sending to more people than you intended.

All in all, you simply want to eliminate unnecessary people at your wedding. Your special day should be witnessed by people who know and care about the couple, not people who are there just to fill their hungry stomachs.
