Preventing Guest from Inviting Guest

I want to share with you this email that I received today. 


AAWP gets lots of email about guests inviting guests. You know the scenario: Invite two people to your wedding and six show up. Some are even so brazen as to put the number of people they’re inviting on the response card, for example:
 
Number of Guests: __ 6__
 
 
AAWP recommends that you never put “Number of Guests” on your response card. In this example, guests simply “check” the appropriate response (no “numbers” allowed):
The favour of a reply is requested by
September fifth
 
M______________________________
 
 ________Accepts      _______Regrets
 
Recently, we got an idea from one of our AAWP consultants—one that will nip this problem in the bud! In the following example, the bride and groom wrote on the response card (third line):
The favour of a reply is requested by
September fifth
Two seats are reserved for  
M_________________________________
______Accepts                  ______Regrets
 
This is a great idea and leaves no doubt in the guest’s mind about who’s invited and who isn’t. With the average cost of a wedding today close to $28,000, it’s time that we took matters into our own hands. A wedding is not a time to let guests invite guests.
 
Happy Weddings!
