I know plenty of brides on here have had issues with their guest lists and have had to restrict due to various reasons, and also have unfortunately had some fallouts over it. I'm hitting an issue, nothing as major, but wondered if anyone has any advice?
We are hoping to be able to invite more friends but at the moment we only have a handful of friends on our guest list and the rest is family. With over 100 guests, we don't exactly want to give too many details away to many people yet. We want to send save the dates to most of our guests so that they can secure the date and keep it free.
Naturally, friends want to find out how plans are going and so far I've been vague with the location and exact date, and even avoiding saying that we've booked anywhere! To those on our B list (those we want to invite, but haven't quite made it onto our guest list yet), how should I answer them when they keep asking me about details? I've just been texting a friend who isn't even quite on the B list, more like C, and she has been been more in contact with me over the past few months than the past few years asking about wedding plans. I feel a bit awkward, but not even sure what I can say to her? I've given a rough date and location, but not the exact venue or date, and have just told her that the reason why I've not been very forthcoming with details is because we are struggling with the guest list at the moment and I hope she understands.
Anyone else had anything like this?
