How do you politely not invite people to you wedding that you want there, but can't afford to have there?

Q. I have tons of friends that I've known for years that say they'd love to attend our wedding, problem is, there is no possible way I can afford to have all these people. How should I let people know that I'd love to have them there, but can't afford to feed them without sounding terrible?

A. "We had a very tight budget for the wedding and reception, and we couldn't invite everyone we wanted to. We know we disappointed a lot of people and that's the hardest thing, but we just couldn't ask everyone we wanted to. I'm sorry if we disappointed you." Repeat as necessary.

And DON'T get into explanations or excuses or details about why some people were invited and others weren't. It's my observation that it isn't the explanation that your budget was limited that gets people into trouble, it's when they start trying to justify the choices they made. "I'm sorry we had to disappoint people, but we had a very limited budget." Just repeat, repeat, repeat. Preferably with a sad smile.

Where can I go to dye my wedding veil in Southern California?
Q. Help! I found the perfect vintage wedding veil I would like to use for my wedding. Problem is, the veil is white and my dress is ivory! I've tried calling seamstresses in my area, but it seems no one offers veil dying services. Does anyone know a reputable place that can dye my veil? I live in Orange County but I will be willing to drive ANYWHERE in Southern California for this service. Thank you!

What should I do about my wedding blues?
Q. I've been in a relationship with my boyfriend for almost 6 years, and the marriage talked has came up. I want to have a wedding ceremony (what girl doesn't?). He rather just go to the court of justice. I'm willing to do that but I still want my wedding. The problem is he doesn't have many friends, more of associates. So I already know who my maid of honor will be but he doesn't have a best man. He's worried about that and I feel that's the reason he doesn't want to have the ceremony. How should I address this? Thanks!

A. If that's the reason, I think you should come up with some other options if you really LOVE him. I wouldn't want my significant other to feel bad on our big day. How about a destination wedding with just the two of you? You still get to wear a cute dress and later on you can come back and have a party with your families & friends.
