Maui Wedding Wedding in Maui, Wedding Photographers

We are trying to keep our costs down for our wedding in Hawaii next year, as well as keep our wedding small, meaningful and intimate with just the very special guests that mean the most to us.

Thing is, people are finding out we're doing a destination wedding, and asking me or my husband, "hey, am I invited to your wedding? Can't wait to go!" I mean, do people really do this? I'd never do this to someone else! We verbally invited the small amount of people to verify that they'd actually go, and now we're afraid we're going to offend a bunch of people.

The cost is going to skyrocket for the rehearsal dinner and reception because we want to do them at elite locations on the islands ... I just don't know what we should do. Should we invite people out of guilt? I mean, is that what all wedding come down to -- pleasing everyone else?

If not, how do I handle the people that ask if they're invited?

Thanks!
