Creating a Guest List



Everyone loves a wedding celebration and everyone wants to be included but there are types when its just not possible because the couples budget might not allow. 
A guest list consists of a magical number of family and friends that

a) Suits the size of your ceremony and reception sites

b) Corresponds with the level of intimacy desired for the wedding and lastly can be accommodated within your wedding budget.
Guests from each side of the family

Traditionally each family is allotted half of the desired total guest count, a number that is largely determined by the person hosting the wedding. A great way to start the process is by creating the following list

Must be invited
The spouse fiancĂ©e or live in partner of each invited guest even if you’ve never met
The person who performs the ceremony and his or her spouse
The parents of the ring bearers and flower girls

Nice to include
The parents of the bridesmaids, It’s a nice gesture when feasible especially when the bride knows them well

Not Necessary but meaningful to include 
Individuals who are not close friends but have been an important part of the couples lives
