How to Pick Your Wedding Guest List

Lifestyle

As a couple, it is important to keep in mind that the wedding day should be about you and your partner.

Picking your wedding guest list is a delicate topic for many couples and it is often easy for things to escalate. It can be difficult to deliver bad news to that childhood friend that you haven’t spoken to in 20 years, or your third cousin twice removed who assumed they would score an invite when they saw your partner’s engagement announcement on Facebook.

To avoid this stress, it can be helpful to create different groups for your wedding guest list based on how close you consider them to be to the two of you. This will help you narrow down the people who are a must to invite, as well as the more casual friends that could be left out of your guest list if your budget or venue is tight.

Some couples also use a B-list as a way of managing the number of family members and friends who might be able to attend the wedding. This group can be limited to those who have a major role in your life, or it may simply include those who you feel have a good relationship with you and your partner’s family. This group can also be the place where you assign plus-ones – some couples only allow guests to bring their significant others if they have been together for a certain amount of time, or are already married.
