Who to invite, a helpful guide

Infographics for the win!

I would encourage planning couples to keep this handy when they feel guest pressure from parents.

This was our rule too, aside from aunt's/uncle's who weren't 'in-town', but were important to us. If we hadn't both met you (mainly a rule for +1's), you weren't invited.

I could not use that, about half of my family has yet to meet my FH. We have been together 6 years now and I have seen the multiple times but it never seems to work with his deployment schedule.

I seriously have to show this to my FH. I have seen so many of these charts and love them all! He gets the whole " I'm not inviting them if I don't see/talk to them on a regular basis", but sometimes guys need to be reminded lol

I feel like there's QUITE a few people I will be meeting for the first time at our wedding hahah! From both our sides too which is really funny!

Nice flow chart, me and my FH will be using something similar but we are adding in "Have they met both of you" lol some of his friends I have yet to meet and some of my family he has yet to meet!
