Guest list issues ?
I have started the guest list, my side was really obvious and consists of imediate family (parents and sibling) then 2nd tier family (grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins but only the ones that are part of my life) the bridal party and their plus 1 (all of which I know and are good friends with) and then my 'foster' family (a family that took me in when I couldnt live at home anymore) - so all very important people and im having to leave some children off and some other close people to make it fit in the number
but
my OHs list was writen in a minute and seems half arsed to hell and I KNOW hes going to end up changing it later on but he wont face it now, it consists of imediate family (parents and siblings) then the grooms party plus their girlfriends/wives, then school friends which so far is fine but then just a bunch of random ex-workmates each with random +1s of people hes never met and doesnt know the names of and NO extended family ?
he has a great relationship with his family, they where all close growing up (his cousin where like extra brothers and they hung out EVERY day) and theres not many of them (about 7 total) but hes completely left them off to invite complete and utter strangers (which isnt even needed because everyone on his side knows each other) - in 10 months or so he going to comeback with 'oh, I need to add these people on' because he always does stuff like that but he wont listen now and keeps saying we have ages till the wedding... but its not ages until the engagement party, hen and stag do's and sending save the dates etc... and its not like we can 'univite' people after those events ?
he always leaves everything till the very last minute then panics but his lack of caring is dragging down my precise organisation... he'll be the death of me
