How do I reduce my Hindu wedding reception guest list while keeping everyone (family and guests) happy?

Its the first family wedding for about 10 years and everyone is excited to come from near and far!

1. I guess this isn't really an answer, but I just wanted to say that you can't please everyone. There's always gonna be so-and-so who didn't like this or that. If you have to reduce it, then that's that, but aiming to make happy (for everyone) might now work.
2. theres a very big possibility that u may not be able to, so it may be better if u start to adjust your mind and go with the flow. its only for one day, try to enjoy it. afterwards, its just u and him
3. If your families are spread out pretty far, you can have the wedding closer to one group on one day and the reception closer to another group on the next day. That way you seem thoughtful wanting to accomodate everyone, you still get the pomp and parties, and you will have about half the people at each place.
4. If you want the wedding to be small have it in a smaller church and invite everybody to the reception by due to limited space only immediate family at the wedding.
5. okay. listen it's you and your soon to be spouses day not n-e-body elses. but here i will help you a little with this cause i had to do it about a year ago. first you write down who you love the most, who is the closest to you, then who accepted you soon to be spouse when they first ment. then you find out who you know or think will come. then write them down. then if you have extra seats mabie invite your closest friends. dont forget about your soon to be spouses family. lol
