guest lists always start small. just “close friends and fam.” then boom—200 people. your mom’s hairdresser. your partner’s old college roommate. two cousins you ain’t talked to since 2013. next thing you know, you’re stressin’ over who makes the cut and who gets cut.
at The Wedding Planner of NYC, we help you build, organize, and manage your guest list without losin’ your mind. from the first draft to the final count, we handle the mess so you don’t gotta scroll spreadsheets at 2am.

one couple in staten island started with 80 guests… then parents added 60 more. we helped split the list into “day-of” and “reception-only,” worked with the venue on space, and kept the vibe intact.
another wedding had guests in 5 countries. we set up digital RSVPs, tracked time zones, and helped manage travel info. they even added a brunch invite to the mix, and we sorted that too.
