You can refer to standard etiquette to assist you, your partner, and your wedding planner in finalising your wedding guest list. 

Because people's sentiments are affected, creating a wedding guest list and deciding other aspects, such as acquiring an actual day wedding package, food, and more, can be incredibly stressful. To avoid disagreement, etiquette demands extra discretion and sympathy for others' feelings, as well as tolerance and understanding. 

For creating your wedding guest list, you can follow these etiquette standards:

1. Determine your budget and intended number of invites. 

Determine the maximum number of attendees you can welcome by calculating how much budget you can devote per person on meals at the reception. After all, your celebration headcount is the most expensive part of your wedding costs. Figure out your intended budget and stick to it.

2. Ensure to only invite the most valuable people in your life. 

It would be best to establish first the must-invites, should-invites, and could-invites before you can prioritise your master list. Discuss these considerations with your wedding event planner as well. This technique ensures that the most valuable individuals to you, your future spouse and family, cut the list.

3. General rule - always invite relatives first.

Always invite relatives first, as a rule of thumb. Remember that the people who attend your ceremony will be your "witnesses," so invite relatives and personal friends who you value and will keep in touch with for a long time.

4. Invited unmarried friends or relatives. 

Even if they aren't wedded, if any unmarried family member or friend is in a serious relationship, invite that individual and their significant other by name. 

Give unmarried members of the wedding party and any single-relatives the option to bring a companion if your budget allows. If your budget doesn't allow each attendee to get a date — which many couples' finances don't — tailor the invitation accordingly. 

Bottom Line

Generating a master list does not have to be very stressful. Think of people who you and your partner value the most. Weddings, after all, are not meant for competition. The most important thing is that you and your partner, along with all your guests, remember that particular day and feel the emotions there have to be. After all, you can always seek the help of the best wedding planners in Singapore.
