[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This thread cracks me up.  We are planning a wedding for our daughter this fall.  My daughter is doing most of the planning, we - her parents - are paying for the wedding. 
We are inviting friends as are the groom's parents.  A wedding is an opportunity for family - and friends - to wish the couple well.  It is a chance for friends to celebrate the union.

Everyone's wedding is different.  For some, it is only for the bride's and groom's friends.  For others, it is a more family celebration.  
OP - your children will make friends in school, in college - if they go, and at work.  If your children are anything like my children, there will be no shortage of guests.  The problem will be deciding who NOT to invite.  [/quote]

Agree. My DD was married a couple of years ago. We paid for the wedding. The guests were a mix of the bride and groom's friends (school, college, work), family, and family friends. The family friends we included were all people who knew the bride and/or groom well, in many cases since birth. This included a handful of our friends from high school and college but also parents of the bride and groom's friends who they were close to. They actually put together the guest list and we added/subtracted a person or two but otherwise it was the people they wanted to share the day with.[/quote]
