Who Do You Have To Invite To Your Wedding?

There's one area of wedding planning that seems to cause more stress and worry than any other - making the wedding guest list. So, this week on The One Fab Day Wedding Podcast, we're trying to make this tricky task a little bit easier, using a handy system we like to call the A-D method. Dividing your prospective guests up into an A List, B List, C List and D List sounds harsh, but it's immeasurably helpful in figuring out who do you have to invite to your wedding. This episode is jam-packed with tips for dealing with the types of guests who often become the source of conflict (cousins, children and plus ones), and navigating unpleasant conversations with those who didn't make the cut.

Episode Breakdown: Episode 17: Who Do You Have To Invite To Your Wedding?

Wedding tip: This week, Claire's got a tip that'll help you create the best wedding your guests have ever attended!

Main topic: While there are no hard or fast rules for making your wedding guest list, we've picked up lots of tips on this subject over the years, which we're passing onto you in this episode! We'll show you how to use the A-D List method to create a watertight guest list, and how to deal with the friends and family members who aren't on it! Oh, and if you enjoy this episode, be sure and give Episode 15, our Q&A special, a listen - we addressed lots of common guest list-related dilemmas on that one!

Wedding dilemma: A listener writes, “I’m going suit shopping soon, and I haven’t a clue what I’m looking for. My brother is my best man and I’m not having any other groomsmen, so I’m worried we’ll look like twins if we wear the same suit! Any ideas?” Our response this week includes some foolproof wedding party styling tips!

Something to do when you're not planning your wedding: We hope you're ready for some kip, because on this episode, Claire's reading us a bedtime story (with a difference!)
