Hey!

I am marrying my girlfriend in june and I invited a few friends of mine to my wedding.

My partner (female) has about 6 close friends and we wanted to stay around 50 people with family and friends for our wedding.

The problem I have is that I had to cut out a few people that I know but have nothing to do with since a few years. I feel kind of bad, because 2 girls in my friend circle are close with my best friends and I like them as friends to talk to but personally I wouldn’t have anything to do with them without my friends.

It’s a weird situation, but I didn’t invite them because my partner and I wanted to keep it at the limit of 50 people with family and friends.

I feel bad. Today I was at a party and I couldn’t talk about the wedding because 7 friends that were invited were there and the other two who werent invited would be left out so I avoided it and was happy nobody talked about the wedding invitations. I think the other two know they aren’t invited even though I enjoy talking with them when we go out…

I hate weddings…

    At a good friend’s wedding a number of us were invited to attend the reception after the meal, just before the band was due to start, because they had limited funds. I thought it was a good way to include us without blowing the budget.

    Edit: I should add that, if you have a wedding in a church or a public place, anyone can attend the official bit, and I have been at weddings where randoms turn up for the church service and sit at the back.
