How to tell people they’re not invited

You aren't invited is one of the hardest things to say when not inviting family and friends to your exchanging of nuptials on your big day. I am not suggesting you to contact everyone and tell them they aren't invited. That would be totally wrong!!! If someone asks you if they're invited, the best bet is to tell them one of the following exaggerated truths:

1. Always blame the budget. No one complains and argues with you if you don't have the funds to invites every single person you know. If they don't understand then they don't care.

2. It's Intimate. The easiest and best way to express this to you loved ones is by saying "My wedding is pretty intimate, and unfortunately that means there are a lot of friends and family who won't be there on our wedding day......" Doing this will help you with your budget and not hurt anyones feelings.

3. Blame the venue. This is one of the hardest of the three choices to tell someone. Blaming the venue of there limit of guest due to fire codes and law. The best way to explain this is" Our venue has a limited number of people they'll allow, and our guestlist is primarily taken up by very close family and the wedding party. I hope you can understand how difficult this process has been for us — there are so many people we wish could be there with us."

I hope these little go to's for telling someone they aren't invited help you relieve the non-sense and drama. It's totally not called for!
