This is the not-so-fun part of the wedding planning process... Creating the guest list. Yes, I am super organized. Yes, I am trying to get everyone the information that they need and get information I need from them. Is this an easy task? NO.
Even with Facebook and e-mail it's difficult to find the addresses of those whom you wish to invite. It's even more difficult when you don't know the people and have to pry "formal names" and hotel preferences out of those helping you.
The worst part? Having to cut people because there's no room. Actually making a decision that someone can't come to your special day because the church only seats 185 is a horrible horrible decision to make. I knew this wedding would be large (my mother is Irish Catholic), but the fact that I can't invite a lot of my friends is difficult. Plus, collaboration with several different people has proven extremely difficult.
It will get done. I will get everything I need. And until then I will just try to keep making it easy for everyone else involved. :-)
