He Has A HUGE Family & I Want A Small Wedding

I have always wanted a nice small wedding, under 100 people! Problem is he is one of 29 grandchildren in his family. To eat, it will be $40 per head and that is another reason I want to keep the limited number of people. Any suggestions on how to break it to his family that we are not inviting everyone? They will get huffy!

Well your asking for advice so heres my opinion, i think family is very important and i think theyll be really hurt that u cant invite everyone. Ijust got married august 20, 2005 and we are a huge hispanic family what we did with food is we asked people in our family if they knew anyone that catered and see what find of deal they could give us. I know that if you plan on having more people then u thought u were, most cateres will work on the price with u. We wanted to have our wedding at a hotel and we were in the same situation but we knew that our family was bi and we wanted them to share our day with us. Heres another option, look for a hall that rents in packages, like the rental fee, clean up, security etc that will save u money and worries i hope that was helpful. God luck to you and God Bless you and your family
