Guest list

I have to add another 12 people??

I just got home from the airport and opened up my home email.

My mum has just requested that I have to add an extra 12 people to the invitation list and they cannot be put on a B list.

So bringing the total invitation list to 185 people and we are hoping for the 140 mark that will say yes. ( i start to think any more and FH and I wont be able to cope with that many people. FH and I dont really like being in the big spotlight) we originally wanted a small wedding for about 80 people and then we realised we couldnt with so much family.

I know I shouldnt be worried the venue can take up to 200 people and my parents are paying for the food which is great, so which means I couldnt actually say no to adding them to the list...

But now we have to bump up our bar tab by an extra 300 dollars so I need to minimise 300 dollars from somewhere in the budget. Which will most likely mean from our honeymoon.

I only know 5 people of the 12 guests that they are inviting... Heres hoping that they will say no?? maybe?

Have any extra guests been sprung on to you that you wouldnt of thought of inviting??
