Big family. Big guest list. Minimal financial contribution.

Our family is huge. Most of those family members are married/in serious relationships.

Most of our closest friends are married/in serious relationships.

Family is chipping in next to nothing. Can’t afford to get a larger venue to host everyone, so current chosen venue is going to be CRAMPED. Can barely afford the headcount as it is.

I want to back out now before it’s too late, get my venue deposit back, and do something else. But truthfully I don’t even know how we could scale back the guest list even if we totally shifted gears without pissing people off, or having to omit friends and only have family. Either option would cut down the guest list from like 140 to 115 - which doesn’t even sound substantial.

I hate this!!!!!!
