Who to invite to a second wedding
|
|
|
This will be a second wedding for both my fiance and I. We each had large first wedding ceremonies and are unsure about what to do the second time around. We have lost contact with some relatives over the years and are concered about using the proper etiquette while making our invitation list. Money, of course, is a factor and to invite all relatives would be impossible. Is it OK to invite some relatives and not others (ex: invite Aunts and Uncles but some cousins and not the others)? And what about children? I would like to say it's ok for those with young children to bring them because I know it's difficult to find a sitter but the ages go from >0 - 21 with second cousins.
Thank You,
Kim

Hi Kim:
Please don't feel like you have to invite every relative and every person you know. Just invite those you are close with and send announcements to the rest.
Take care when inviting children since, if you invite some, you must invite all. So, you might want to either reconsider inviting all of the children if you're on a budget or perhaps you could have a separate room nearby with a couple of babysitters for the kiddies. Now, the problem with the babysitter situation will be that some kids might not want to separate from their parents, some parents might feel their kids are too old for babysitting, etc. With the age range you have there think carefully before moving ahead.
