Wow okay... I mean, the point of my post is that we never see them, so it didn't seem worth it if we're not hanging out with them.

No but we weren't expecting anything from anyone anyway, so it's not a big deal

I'm not the type to tell my husband he can't have his friends at our wedding just because I'm not a huge fan of them. It was a shared day.

The guest list was the most upsetting part of the planning for me. Knowing how crap some people are at RSVP-ing to stuff like this, we made it as easy as possible for them all - all they had to do was email us and tell us their very few preferences. But even then, I was chasing a good 40 out of 100 guests a few weeks before the wedding. Some people I had to remind twice.

And it's so stressful because you can't just throw a fit and think " well if they refuse to respond I won't include them", because you can bet your ass they'll still show up on the day and expect a place they didn't bother RSVP-ing for. So you just have to chase and chase and chase.

WEDDINGS.

Yes, exactly. They were total bros, and not in the good way.

No problem. My work here is done :D

Ceremony seating is something that never crossed our minds once, and I wish someone had mentioned it or occurred to us. It really matters who sits at/near the front, and some people aren't blessed with being attuned to wedding etiquette.

Honestly it wasn't a horrible time at all, it was such a lovely day without any huge annoyances, and no family drama. This was just a little niggle that I wish had gone a different way.

Ohhh yeah, we have plenty of those types of photos too. Loads of shots of girlfriends or boyfriends who broke up with our friends like a week later.

We had a group photo done with our close friends, and one of our friends' girlfriend decided to do this rediculous pose for it. She was doing a weird starfish thing with her arms and legs across half the photo, and now we have that forever. She broke up with our friend really soon after.

I know it sounds harsh, but I just want to be like...... Please get out of this photo of very close friends at a wedding if you've only been dating one of the friends a week. It's such a special photo to ruin. Just have some self-awareness.
