Re: When a Zoom invite is a B List invite

I was thinking something similar to DaDancingPsych.

I mean, I don't think that the OP's situation is a B list or otherwise improper.  I'm assuming that the guest list (the small in-person number plus the Zoom number) is the same or pretty close, with perhaps a few additions, as DaDancingPsych says.

I think it's understandable to invite more people to a Zoom event if your budget would not have allowed you to invite all the people you truly want to be there.  I don't know how you'd even judge which guests were the "extras" if you were planning it as a Zoom event from the start.  So far, we are mostly seeing weddings that had been planned as in-person events that had to be rescheduled as Zoom weddings.  But now we will be seeing more that are planned as a Zoom from the get go.

But I suppose a Zoom wedding would allow a more mercenary couple who might have invited, say, 150 to a regular wedding to invite, like, a THOUSAND people to a Zoom wedding.  That wouldn't be a B list situation -- but it would be a gift grab, big time.

And the guests wouldn't even know it until they show up for the Zoom wedding and see all those people there (attendance seems usually to be quite high for a Zoom event).

Now, I haven't heard of this happening.  But I fear it's only a matter of time. ...
