Lesson of the day from yesterday: no matter who tells you they won't be able to make it when you send out the save the date or that they'll be driving and not spending the night near your wedding - don't believe them.
Chances are, they will change their minds. And then you wind up with your mother calling you long distance from another country (or state) where she lives crying that she didn't book the room in time and now they're out and you have to call the hotel and negotiate more rooms, if that's even possible, because the insane amount that you set aside is now sold out and she will be on the street unless you do something.
No pressure.
So, please. Learn from the error of my ways. If you think 5 people are going to show up, book 40 rooms. And make sure you are not responsible for paying for any of them. (Just in case it swings the other way...)
