Eric came home from work the other day and said
"Turns out that new guy I am working with is pretty cool...I thought maybe we should..."
"No...we are not going out with them or having them over. Stop making new friends or contacting old ones on Facebook".
Seriously, this is what my life has come to. We have too many friends, and way too much family. Our small, intimate affair wedding guest list is up to 45...our larger guest list is up to 189...if we cut non-adults we are maybe at 151.
"Oh, all your family from the northeast won't come"
No, they will. My brother got married in Maine and thought the same thing about the NJ guests. But they all came, every last one of them. They complained how far it was, how expensive the hotels were, and how terrible it was that the young children weren't invited. But, none of these grievances stopped them from coming.
I love my crazy Italian-Polish family to death, and we are so fortunate to have a large group of close friends, but the madness has got to stop.

Ugh, I totally know how you feel.
ReplyDeleteI'd love to have a smaller wedding if I could--- but then again there are SO MANY people I love and want them to be there
Plus my dad is a pastor, so there's no way we could have a small wedding even if I demanded it lol.
