This may sound a bit crazy but as I slowly approach planning & thinking about ideas for a wedding out pops the randomest people that must or "want" to be invited! I havent picked a place, a for sure date, or anything. The only thing I know is who I want to marry! Im already hearing a lot of "Dont forget to invite me" or "I better be invited" or "Am I on the A or B list?" lol! I find it quite comical! People shouldnt be scared if they are getting invited or not. If you even have a doubt that you might not be invited maybe you shouldnt be & arent very close to Derek or myself. Of course that could always be changed.
I have started to look at about 5 different locations to hold a wedding & am finding most if not all are accomodating 150-220 max! This is crazy considering I finished my first draft of my guest list & already made cuts for a total of 270! I looked at locations that can accomodate numbers as high as mine & they give a cold, big, & banquet hall vibe. Im seeking warm, cozy, & intimate. I just wish that the family members that are a "must", I would see them more that once a year on a big holiday..maybe.. if that. I want to be able to know my guests, recognize them, & have them already be familiar with Derek.. is that too much to ask?
Im sure all couples planning a wedding are facing the same challenges. If you were to see what you can do with a space & details you can add to a wedding of 150 you would cut out distant loved ones too!

I feel you!! I had a guest list of 240 (after serious cuts, more than wanted) and my location only held 200! I ended up with 189. I got lucky! Have you checked out Castle Green in Pasadena? The inside reception place is kinda big but it holds a lot of people and it isn't just a square room.
