What group makes up the largest percentage of your guest list? Old friends? New friends? Family? Coworkers? Buddies from a hobby or sport?

    Family for sure. But that's because I come from a fairly large family.

    It was about even. Mostly friends came though as all my extended family live in another province and we aren't that close so I didn't expect them to make the trip.

    Our guest list is mostly family as I have three sisters and my fiancé has four siblings (three brothers and a sister), many of which have children.

    Probably more friends! My family is fairly small so my side is mainly friends! His side has a large family but then together we have invited a bunch of mutual friends!

    Mostly family.

    We have a few friends coming, but family is more important to both of us. So only the most important friends will be invited

    Ours is looking like half & half too, with my fiance having the higher numbers in both categories (lots of friends, and big family!) Thankfully I've become close with a number his friends so they feel like my friends too Smiley smile

    Half and half overall, but my side is majority family (almost all) and his side is majority friends (about 2/3rds)... His family isn't as close, but he has lots of friends, whereas I moved alot and don't have many friends (that aren't mutual), whereas my family is much closer and huge.

    Family for his side, friends for mine. His family is so large that it actually outnumbers all of our friends combined though.

    We have a really small list. About 30 people. It's mainly family.

    Mostly family for us. My fiance has a pretty big family on both sides and both of us only have a few really close friends.

    I would say it is mostly family - but my FH's family. He has a massive family that we will be inviting and my family guest list is probably under 50 people... (our guest list is 250)

    In order it would go: his family, his friends, my family, my friend. (Singular friend - yes Smiley tongue)
