We arent doing a destination wedding (where flying is involved).

We are doing one where a little driving and taking a Friday off work is involved and they will have to spend at least 1 night in a hotel (but that is because they have a 3-5 hour 1 way drive). For the locations we wanted every Saturday was booked so we ended up on a Friday. Every primary guest who we expect to show would have showed for a Friday or Saturday regardless. Anyone who would use Friday as an excuse wouldnt likely come anyway and that just makes it easier to weed down the guest list.

We put down the deposit on the Church and reception venue last night.

Wow do line item costs add up.
