Guest List Dilemmas
In this episode of The Well Designed Wedding, we’re diving into one of the most emotionally loaded parts of planning your celebration: the guest list. I’m walking you through how to determine your ideal guest count based on venue capacity and budget, and how to use that number as a clear guide for everything that follows. From setting boundaries around who gets a seat at the table to gracefully managing family input and expectations, this episode will help you create a list that reflects your values, not your obligations.
We’ll also talk through strategies for building A, B, and even C-lists with intention, including how to handle plus ones, kids, and workplace invites with consistency and care. I’m sharing how to manage last-minute changes, respond to pressure without guilt, and communicate your choices with kindness. If you're feeling overwhelmed by who to invite, or uninvite, this episode offers a grounded, thoughtful approach to one of the most personal parts of wedding planning.
