[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hiding the guest list is overthinking it.  It’s helpful for various reasons, but especially not to talk about it with people who aren’t invited.  Now, you probably shouldn’t talk about it anyway, but it’s a different kind of media.  Since you have to actively choose to hide the guest list, I always wonder why people choose to do so.  It’s like going out of your way to make things more difficult for people.  Just publish the list, already.[/quote]

You don't need to talk about the party with another parent.

I wasn't talking about other parents (although the carpool issue is real), I was talking about kids.

The whole "you don't need to know who is invited" for a *children's party* is excessive.  It's not a top secret affair, FFS.  Hiding the guest list makes me think someone is being deliberately exclusive, which is not a good look.[/quote]

But again, if this were traditional paper invitations, you also wouldn't know who else was invited and you wouldn't be on here complaining about it.[/quote]

But it’s not traditional paper invitations - which, by the way, haven’t been widely used in what, 10 years or more?  That’s moot.  Hiding the guest list on Evite requires deliberate action on the part of the host.  I think it’s juvenile and implies a low opinion of one’s guests.  If there were people I thought might not attend if Larla was or was not attending, I’d rather not have those people there to begin with.

If you’re hosting a dinner party for adult friends, do you invite them all individually and not let guests know who else will be there?  [/quote]
