Separating Bride and Groom Guest Lists
Review bride and groom guest groups without creating duplicate people or losing household relationships.
Use side labels consistently
Agree the meaning of each side label with the couple. A shared friend should have one guest record with the appropriate shared-side classification rather than being added independently to both families’ lists.
Keep invitation grouping practical
A household may contain people with different relationships to the couple. Preserve the invitation group while checking member details and effective side labels, then reconcile the combined headcount before ordering meals.
Worked example · illustrative details
A mutual friend in two drafts
Both hosts list Noor in their planning notes. Consolidate Noor into one named guest record and review the side classification together. The final guest count should increase by one, regardless of how many draft lists mentioned Noor.
