You're information was very helpful, I really appreciate it. I just wish Scott wasn't working so much right now so we could sit down and hammer out a guestlist because it's really hard to get things figured out price wise when we don't know how many people we are going to be inviting.
As for my Dad's fiance's kids...I think I wouldn't mind having them in the party...it would be a nice gesture and they are really nice kids and we photograph well together Plus, I don't have a lot of close friends so it's not like there are tons of people for me to choose from.
