[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP hasn’t mentioned the bride’s family at all. Is this wedding being put on by the bride’s family? My DH has a small family and I have a very large one. We had an 18+ cutoff because without it we would have had to invite 10 kids between the ages of 4 and 12 who are my much younger first cousins. If my DH had been like hey can we include my cousin Larlo who is 9, my mom would have been like we can’t include cousin Larlo while excluding the 10 young cousins on our side. Her big thing was the levels had to be equal. You can include young nieces and nephews while excluding young cousins because nieces and nephews are closer, but you can’t include some young 1st cousins while excluding other young 1st cousins. We had a capacity limit and couldn’t just add 10 young cousins without having to then exclude people that we were actually close to.

OP, this really isn’t a personal slight against you and you are centering yourself way too much in the planning of this wedding.  [/quote]

You each should be able to invite the same number of people outside parents and grandparents.[/quote]
