We’ve booked our wedding and have roughly 12 months to plan. Our preferred day guest number is around 40, we prefer the idea of an intimate day but also works for our budget. 30/40 are family members and the rest will be made up of very close friends likely to be in the bridal and groomsmen parties. We have other friends we’ve been close to over the years (who are also friends with/in the same circles as the people who we are inviting to our day) who we’re no longer as close to and can’t afford to invite for the whole day. They’ll absolutely be invited to the evening but I feel so guilty as we’ve been day guests to their weddings!
How is best to handle this situation, especially when it comes to invites and people perhaps asking/expecting to be day guests?
